Based on what I am hearing on the financial networks, Bloomberg and CNBC, one analyst after another [View all]

predicting their doom and gloom for us, along with the Wall Street echo chamber, they could care less if Democracy in the U.S. was lost.

It is just about high gas prices and inflation, and it is all the Democrats' fault. greg valliere was on Bloomberg this morning spewing that people are concerned why "all that money is going to Ukraine, and nothing to the U.S."

Ignoring the legislation that the Democrats managed to get through.

They are the most selfish assholes in the world.
