    Why am I not surprised?
    Not only do we have the best president that money can buy, we also have the best attorney general that money can buy.

    I go to the Fox News facebook page to see if they covered the story and of course it’s crickets (just AOC, immigration, Trump praise, pop culture, etc.)

    Dude's rocking a full sack.

    Left running shit about corruption when their party has long whored itself out to the Chicoms, globalist elitists, and made muti-millionaires out of public servants, by blowing up our debt to the tune of 37 Trillion dollars with dick to show for it...

    That's rich. As hell.

    We looked to the MSM for decades, waiting for them to cover the Clintons, Obama and Biden corruption...

    Crickets.

    Choke on Trump/America first, for a few years.... seems bought n paid for with interest, by decades.

    Congratulations on supporting government price controls. You've really embraced being a leftist.

    Not a single shred of criticism or concern from Trump supporters. Thank you for proving that all the outrage over Hunter Biden was in bad faith.

    Pathetic and predictable.

    Trump causing a lot is side switching. Used to be the dems were the doves and supposedly anti-big pharma. Now they've become ruthless war hawks, and bought n paid for shills for big pharm.

    Never been a fan of price controls, but apparently they've been fleecing our asses while coddling to foreign states for decades.

    What I'm good with, is short term strong arming to balance the field again, until we're not getting fleeced by our *allies*.

    America first.

    Shift the tax burden overseas as much as we can, get the debt and spending under control, and fix ourselves first, before pretending to save the world.

    Radical change is absolutely necessary, because we are undeniably on a crash course with disaster--by which I actually mean the collapse of the United States of America, as a nation.

    37 Trillion dollars in debt (was less than 5T 20 years ago), and no matter how y'all pretend to spin it, y'all advocate for the status quo--which *IS*, national suicide.

    Is that really what y'all want?

    Dude, just stop.

    There was nonstop media coverage and investigations into the Clinton’s. For a decade. Lots of smoke and innuendo (a suicide or 12 ;) ). Findings, Bill was a ho and Hillary a B. Biden was simply a joke. Head of a crime family, lmfao. Really.

    Now Trump was always a marketing guy vs a developer. That is what he does. Uses the media and bluster for gains. It works for him. Now there is nothing substantive or sustainable there, but it certainly feeds his attention deficit disorder. He just does the grift in plain site, commemorative coins…. Other pos politicians, damn why didn’t we think of that.

    There has to be some adult land between panicked chicken little and vengeful squatted truck crowd.

    The constant team bitches bitching only leads to a more divided country. Of course many folks and logs want that, both literally and figuratively.

    Now get off my lawn, it’s soggy,

    ymmv

    If that isn't an invitation for assassination, show me what you think one actually looks like.

    Trump doesn't "cause side switching." Side switching means your belief in something wasn't based on principle in the first place. Either someone is for or against govt price controls. Who proposes them shouldn't matter.

    We compromise our principles in exigent circumstances all the time. If Lincoln bound himself to constitutional principles, the Union very likely not have held.

    Had we bound ourselves to principles, WW II likely ended quite differently in a number of ways. First example that springs to mind--were not Hiroshima and Nagasaki drastic departures from principles? Or was wholesale destruction of cities (including civilians) always part of our *principles*?

    Rounding up the Indians, and land locking then on reservations... the Missouri compromise... Dredd Scott.... (really, every concession made to allow for slavery--why did we have to wait for South to secede, to declare the obvious--that that shit was patently against our supposed principles?)... MacCarthyism... Jap internment camps....

    The problem here, is that y'all refuse to acknowledge the urgency.

    We WILL collapse, IF we do not get our fiscal house in order.

    dems have been trying to pass a drug price control bill forever. if he is serious about it, he should try putting together legislation that has meaning instead of a tweet and and EO that, legally, isn't worth the time it took to write it

    this is just like the uk trade deal, the china trade deal, and so much other stuff, just hot air with no legal basis for evaluation because there is no document signed by anyone with any authority to do so

    Seems this poster simply ignores the current proposals for the Budget. But at least all that additional debt and deficit will "own" the libs..... right?

    Trump blew up the deficit last time, and the next tax “plan” will cause $5 Trillion additional debt.

    Now that you’ve established yourself to have zero principles, I predict a “why govt deficits are actually a good thing!” post in your future.

    I don’t think requiring the price to be the same as other countries “price control”. The drug companies can raise the prices all they want just have to do it across the board.

    I’m on board with this as long as it doesn’t set a specific price by our government.

    yet you had nothing when dt was blowing up the deficit the first time and you seem oblivious to the $5T his new plan will add..

    I agree, we need cuts, just cuts made based on logic and reason and not on politics and prejudices

    i guess the fact DT spent more this year than Biden did last year doesn't bother you at all though, now let's get that parade fired up and cut some more kids lunches to pay for it
