They are always saying shit like this, as if he kept a single promise about the wars and the economy.

That stupid tax cut didn't mean shit to anybody I know.

slept better - that’s for damn sure. We’re trying DESPERATELY to get back to that world, but you can never really go home, can you. So now we are left here, again, trying to pick up the pieces.

And kill the progress made to combat climate change before their convicted felon got elected.

And that moron has the gall to pretend he does it for the children? THEY are the ones who will suffer the most of the forthcoming disasters from the climate disruptions.

I might have health insurance beyond Medicare.... I might have a profitable retirement fund..... My neighbors would have things like good education, infrastructure, global security, a social safety net, vaccines, safety from pandemics, protection from financial predators...... I could think of a million things that would be better.

The *only* advantage to that mouldy old orange peel with canks is that I can fly to see my family for quite a bit less…because who wants to travel to the US now?
These people are deluded and if I say anything more I’ll get hidden.

Frankly the F47 regime is a direct drain on my creativity and mental health. They're killing the goddam soul of the country, and 10 years ago I didn't think the country even had one but it did, and now it's dying right in front of us all. It's downright exhausting toting his nasty precious around everywhere.
