Same here. My wife and I were just talking about this very subject. I personally have a friend whose family went bankrupt in the early 90s treating her childhood cancer. They eventually lost their pre-war NYC co-op. No one should go bankrupt keeping their child alive.

She uncritically promoted Elon Musk for years and is one of the worst examples of access journalism. She is a reason Musk has been able to defraud this country for as long as he has. She should disappear into a very deep and dark hole and never climb out.

The other guy might not have done a good job but he isn’t here any longer. The buck stops at the top with the guy currently in charge. If Trump & the GOP cared about deficits, lower interest rates or anything other than a wealth transfer to their buddies, they could do something about those things.

I will be using the term “going full Argentina” frequently but also nebulously as none of my non-finance friends will understand the meaning and I’ll refuse to explain myself.

He’s the absolutely perfect example of Trump Administration incompetence. Just an idiot. Even his dealings with $FICO are going to amount to Fair Isaac gaining even more market power in the end.
