I feel like all the #maga people who run around leaving awful comments on everything they don't agree with, as well as anyone who grew up to act like a cyber bully/troll in general, are just the high school bullies we all knew.

They grew up and figured out they were a loser, and too cowardly for actual crime.

They go around acting tough, and insulting people online, as no reasonable adult can stand them, and stay FAR away.

What a sad existence, and well earned.

"There is one major sign that lawmakers expect to increase the #deficit more with this version: It would raise the #debtceiling by a larger amount than the February version. The debt ceiling limits how much money the federal government is allowed to borrow.

#Congress wants to pass a major package of policy changes using a special reconciliation process that could pass without any Democratic votes in the #Senate."

Oh, I was not at all suggesting that. I was joining you in the fun, and clearly labeled the post as sarcasm. It was directed at the #MAGA uneducated just as yours was, and I never thought you'd take offense on that. Sorry.

I will try to minimize interaction with you, as it is now abundantly clear that you have problems with my post regardless of context or content.

Ein Präsident bei der Arbeit:

"He used the opportunity to field questions and tell us why he shoots rainbows and unicorns from his backside. During the nearly hour-long meeting in the Oval Office with the press pool he discussed water pressure, opined on Asian carp, insulted Harvard, claimed the country was making $2 billion a day on tariffs (that he just paused), and then accused former employee Miles Taylor (author of “Anonymous”) of being a traitor."

Salon.com · MAGA feels true cost of Trump’s tariffs

All #Trumpists and #MAGA crowds will claim this is a "4D chess move"...

Then you just remind them that Trump's betters would have #JFK'ed him if he continued.

In regards to #China though, this is probably the dumbest trade war of all time. China is what it is because of the #US exploiting access to #Chinese #WageSlavery.

This is what US industry is built on.

nj · Even Fox News admits: Trump ‘capitulated’By Lauren Sforza | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com

It is appalling how good the Ukrainians (and others) have to be when trying to convince some of the world's worst people to do anything good. Remember how they got Holy Mike Johnson to send aid by working through their own small Evangelical community? Absolutely no credit to him but that connection got it done, if too late to save many.

They got this #Trump pastor to tell other #MAGA's that they've been lied to about #Ukraine

In the meantime, we keep protesting.

The Kyiv Independent · 'Supporting Ukraine is America first' — Trump's spiritual advisor, Pastor Mark BurnsWhen U.S. President Donald Trump paused military aid to Ukraine last month, the man described as his "spiritual advisor," Pastor Mark Burns, backed the decision. This week, Burns is urging him to send Kyiv more tanks, fighter jets, and air defense. "I now believe that supporting Ukraine is America

This is the quiet part spoken out loud. Thank you!No amount of #Trump, #MAGA voter suffering will change anything. In fact, it will only convince them they were right to feel victimized by the #Woke. All of this is, like he said, painful medicine they need to take to cure the #LiberalAgenda. No sacrifice is too great for them to maintain #WhiteSupremacy.
