    This is fake. I mean, fuck the guy, but he didn’t say that. This is the actual screenshot before the edit.

      Well yeah, USA being able to run such a huge deficit was definitely related to countries around the world trusting/respecting/fearing them. So now that that’s gone, bankruptcy is indeed on the table.

      And it was Trump who caused it. I’m sure Elon helped.

      I think if this immigrant wants to stay in our country he should have to pony up his billions to help with the deficit. He can make more of a difference than literally anyone else.

        Honestly? No, not entirely.

        Those crawls at the bottom of the screen can be written in a way that take liberties in order to get a viewer’s attention.

        Plus the guy saluted on national TV. He also tried pinning the Twitter hack on Ukraine. I put almost nothing past him.

        In this reality we live in? It was better for me to spell out that it is indeed a joke before someone else takes it seriously.

      Just once I would like to see them hold each other or themselves accountable…

      People can use the "both sides’ argument, but at the end of the day, Democrats will actually remove sexual predators or other bad apples from their cabinets, and Republicans don’t.

    I think it’s a mistake to attribute all this to drug use. For one, it further demonizes drug use, and second, it takes blame off his shoulders when he has proven plenty enough times that he’s a fully hateful, narcissistic pos all on his own.

    You would think that he’d be used to it by now, since he’s obviously had the same basic personality since middle school, and everyone undoubtedly hated him then too.

      He’s always been a loser he just hid it with mommy and daddy’s money.
