    Trump will punish ALL his detractors so they'd better STFU if they know
    what's good for them. Including all who answered that way in the polls.


    Homeland Security will get them.

    seems that the economy does better under the

    Love the breakdown:

    30% Republicans
    29% Democrats
    40% Independents (read Democrats)

    Oh and they included comparisons to other Presidents for most of the
    question in this poll but not this one. Wonder why....

    Laughter.

    Republicans pretending to care about debt.

    How charming.



    President Trump's Impact on the National Debt
    October 15, 2020

    When President Trump took office in
    January 2017, the national debt stood
    at $19.9 trillion. In October 2020,
    the national debt reached a new high
    of $27 trillion. That's an increase
    of almost 36% in less than four years.

    I don't get why it's "trash" just because it's behind a paywall.

    Here's a tip for KG: With just about any paywall if you're quick on the
    draw you can do a Command-A and Command-C and copy the text to a text
    editor for reading before the paywall blocks the article. You only have
    a couple of seconds to do it though.
