Stupidity sinks to a new low.
Pulte shows Trump his hairbrained idea and sells it to him by posting a photo of Trump next to FDR with the caption “Great Presidents” since the 30-year mortgage was an FDR initiative. Trump posts it 10 minutes later on Truth Social and chaos ensues. Republicans in disarray.

Check this out! Even as Trump seeks to starve our most vulnerable citizens, including millions of children, he is giving billions more to the rich and powerful by gutting the corporate minimum tax. Once more, families lose, billionaires win.

Extending the health care tax credits for one year costs about the same as Trump’s bailout of Argentina.
Trump and Congressional Republicans must come to the table and negotiate—before tens of millions of Americans see their health care premiums double.

Rachel Maddow warns: if Republicans let ACA subsidies expire, millions will face massive premium spikes. A WV couple’s plan could jump from $300 to $4,700 a month. The #GOPHealthCareShutdown isn’t fiscal discipline—it’s a war on working families’ health and wallets.

Democrats asked for ONE THING today to reopen the govt: Keep health insurance subsidies where they are at now for one year. That is IT. Nothing else.
Republicans said no.
So all the lies they tell every day about things Dems are asking for is BS.
