He’s ignoring one branch and issuing executive orders that should be addressed by the other one. If that’s not a power grab, I don’t know what is. He’s not a dictator. He’s a wannabe.

Breitbart is not a legitimate news source.

On fire with 177,000 jobs? Real indicator is GDP. It decreased .03 (shrank) in the first quarter. Let’s check back next week after second quarter figures come out. As for inflation and tariffs, he hasn’t implemented any yet significant enough to cause disruption. It’s just been political theater, at which he is a master. All hat.

He’s a brutal liar.

So? You all quote anti-immigration propaganda. There are two sides to issues in a dynamic system. That’s how we grow. Debate and problem solving. There are many perspectives in a dynamic system, hence a more liberal immigration system brings some of the best intellectual talent in the world here and contributes greatly to innovation, an area we lead the world in. For now. Once Weasel snuffs that out, we’ll have a hard time recovering. -

How come you don’t get beat up for not citing sources? They tear my ass up on here when I present unsourced information. [Hidden Content] -

You sure? Come harvest time, prices will rise with either labor cost increase or crops sitting in the field because the cheap labor source has been cut off. Does your research include soft costs, or you just looking at federal outlays? -
Oh, you mean like that one in Texas that made the abortion pill I junction nationwide. And you call me a hypocrite. I’m telling you, man, weak arguing skills.

Many people are able bodied but not able minded. -
Facts are stubborn things. A landslide isn’t 60%. I was incorrect. It is generally considered a landslide when the victory is by 15 points or more. It doesn’t matter what anyone predicts. A 2 point win is not even close to a landslide or mandate. I told you about checks and balances because your post demonstrated a misunderstanding of the separation of powers. You really need to work on your factual arguing skills.

You are funny as all get out. A landslide is considered an election where the winner receives over 60% of the popular vote. Weasel got 49.7, not even a majority. To call it a landslide is laughable, to put it mildly. As for the courts, we have three equal branches. Checks and balances, you know? An injunction is not a final ruling. Man, you are digging deep and still coming up empty.

That raises an interesting point. We must remember that opposition or favor of any government program depends on whose ox is being gored. I like Social Security and Medicare. I can see where a 30 year old might not. Start talking about reducing or eliminating those benefits and my ox is being gored. Talk about a bloated defense budget and Boeing’s et. al. oxes are being gored. Government is big, bloated, and unnecessary - until it isn’t. -

Billing is not the patient’s responsibility. Able bodied adults can too easily get welfare and TANF plus child tax credits. Proving disability to qualify for Medicaid is quite a different matter. Not nearly as easy. -

I certainly do. Did you read the piece? So, you think the patients fake sick so they can collect money that passes between the program and the provider? Do you really believe that? Or is it that the poor and elderly fake their income or age to get free insurance? Do you really believe that? -

I know AAW, and he doesn’t get offended without good reason. Look inside yourself instead of spewing all over me and BG to hide your embarrassment. -

Yes, and the right wing clowns blame the poor, the minorities, and illegals. Remember the “welfare Cadillac”? Ronald Raga** started the wedge driving way back yonder in ‘80. -

Where is the abuse? Ineligible users? Medicaid, like Medicare, sets prices. Bills and payments pass between the program and providers. The fraud is perpetrated by providers, not the insureds. Given the Weasel’s record of letting business off the hook, don’t look for much fraud reduction. The reductions will come at the expense of the poor and disabled. Trump don’t care. [Hidden Content] -

Talk about a pot calling the kettle black. Look at your post, man. You dismissed the 14 year old bed bound because of child labor laws, not his disability. Follow your cheap shot logically, and a 30 disabled person not bound by child labor laws should work. Build a better argument if you don’t like getting called out. -
We didn’t trash the Capitol. Why won’t the Weasel pardon liberal criminals?

Pro Palestinian rights = antisemitism? How predictable! I thought the Hitler card was frowned upon in here. I got a reprimand for using it. Of course, I was referring to the Weasel, not liberals. But since you brought it up, he also banned and burned books and dealt brutally with anyone with thoughts or opinions opposing the Reich. Weasel ain’t got brutal yet, but he’s working overtime trying to curb freedom of expression.

Not that big a leap when they already seem to take glee in separating them from their parents. -
