    LMAO, he's doing exactly what he said he was going to do when he got elected. It's actually refreshing and quite entertaining at the same time watching people like you react.

    Hopefully they're paid down on the debt. Paying down on the debt isn't selfish. It's actually a kind act of trying to leave this world better for our kids/grandkids than it was left for us. So far we have failed at this and are trying to correct course. You libs think money grows on trees.

    But if you dont make the cuts then you will never know if you're going to get them back.

    My life is fine and this has no effect on my life.

    But it could have a positive effect on future generations.

    So you are speaking from a place of privilege, people could really die with his policies.

    It wont. Trump will add more debt and pollute the Earth..

    I'm talking about what he's currently doing.

    Dont you think the Fauci/Chinese lead Covid pandemic may have had something to do with the debt going higher?

    I'm certainly not privileged, although I'm privileged to be alive.

    BTW, the people doing the embezzling should've thought about this. Rubio said his office would takeover the USAID work, which is probably a good thing. I dont see what the issue is.

    LMAO, if anybody would know Ron Paul would know.

    The money did go to GOF research. No conspiracy theory there.

    What do you think all this silicon valley money and guys like Elon Musk aim is here? Do you think Elon out of the good of his heart wants to save America by getting rid of the deficit?

    The USAID department under Biden was funding a transgender opera in Colombia and a DEI musical in Ireland.

    If only there were another name for a transgender opera. Oh, wait, there is -- a freak show.
