I wish one of these ‘journalists’ would ask:

‘The Economist used the phrase "The envy of the world" in a report published three weeks before the 2024 election to describe the American economy.’

Why do you say, ‘we inherited an absolute economic mess…?

If this keeps up, Trump can open his own museum display of clothes, wallets, purses, passports, papers, children’s photos pictures, shoes taken and collected.

If only Gore and his team had asked for a statewide recount, the Supreme Court would have had one less excuse to hand the presidency over to Bush.

MTG has a long history of screaming and lying about Democrats, liberals, immigrants, progressives, people of all colors and persuasions. She can’t escape that.

Deficits passed to the next President:

Clinton: $250B surplus
GWB: $1.4T deficit
Obama: $660B deficit
Trump1: $2.8T deficit
Biden: $1.8T deficit

Notice a pattern here?

Note: Trump blew the deficit up to 1 trillion his first year

Does anyone remember the outrage from the RW and mainstream media about Jeremiah Wright, Obama's pastor? Or the ‘palling around with terrorist’ meme that they
threw at him because he knew Bill Ayers?

Now, the Tea Party MAGA Republicans approve of ‘Partying & Palling around with a Pedophiles.

This century:
Jobs created (in millions)
GWB: 3
Obama: 11
Trump1: (6)
Biden: 16

Rs lost 3 million jobs
Ds created 27 million jobs

To get back lost jobs, elect Democrats

Does anyone remember the outrage from the RW and main stream media about Jeremiah Wright, Obama's pastor?

in it's wake, Obama delivered what many say was his best speech: "A More Perfect Union".

Obama gave up his pastor and church.

I wonder what Trump will say and do.

Here is Robert Reich’s take and Jennifer Rubin wrote to Dems: (I like both)

“Where We Go from Here
Don’t go to war with army you have, find and cultivate the army you want”

There were 38 Democrats who voted to keep the government shut down. There were 7 who voted to take the deal.

Are you tarring all Democrats for the actions of 7?

Tom doesn’t seem to remember that Republicans sabotaged the PP&ACA risk pools after it was passed. It never functioned as designed thanks to Rs. The PP&ACA would have been so much better for Americans who did not have employer healthcare insurance had they not done so.
November 12, 2025 at 8:43 PM
How do you know they didn’t try? From what I’ve read, Thune up it in at the last minute after cloture; all Rs backed it which after cloture only requires a majority and most Dems were against it.

Let’s blame Republicans for what they do not Dems for what they can’t do,

And it was added
November 12, 2025 at 5:12 PM
The PP&ACA is a free market place for people without employer provided insurance to use it to buy insurance from private insurance companies. There is no government insurance policy to buy.

But we carry the reminders
Of every D vote that laid us down
Or cut us till we cried out
In our anger and despair
We are leaving, we are leaving, we cry

But tomorrow we cry
We are still alive
We are living still
We are still around
We will remain
And we be back again
November 10, 2025 at 5:17 PM
Notice, the question was ‘…once the ACA subsidies expire?’, not ‘…’if the vote in Dec. is to keep the subsidies.’. They know this vote in Dec., if it happens, Rs will vote no to the subsidies.

Why, their goal is to destroy the PP&ACA. Does Trump or MAGA have a plan after that?
No they don’t.
November 10, 2025 at 2:16 PM
Yes, but what state government is going to go after someone who has been ‘pardoned’ by the President?
