It’s not slobber. It’s your consistent every trump does it wrong mindset. Pretend that isn’t your mantra now.

I will continue to object when the party I support moves closer and closer to my enemies. It would be one thing if you acknowledged that he's a liberal and you support those liberal policies (you clearly do as evidenced daily about your desire for government intervention). But you act like he's some far right slayer of communism and I will continue to point out how wrong that is

Questioning is one thing. That isn’t what you’re doing. It’s intentionally taking the same side of every position.

What should I do when I hear the man call the agenda you've promised me and that I would be highly supportive of as far right, extreme, and he wants nothing to do with it?

Oh the debt didn’t primarily have to do with the 08 crash and Covid?

Ok….

well the debt was $10T before those events. Those events are both over, so we'd theoretically be spending less now that the crisis is over

And also, there will be more black swan events

Because you’re going to get 80-90% of it. But I guess you could just bitch and push an election approach that gets you 0%
 
We will see what happens of the remnants of the RDS followers when Vance is wildly successful. Then we find out if it was a competency allegiance or cult.

Last week you were telling me how he is the most popular pololitician with the most popular agenda we've ever seen

Today you tell me that if he doesnt distance himself from that agenda, he will lose to Joe Biden

The federal programs make things worse because they're incentivized to exasperate the problem.

In 2000, there ~$11B spent on SNAP, with ~18M people participating
In 2022, there was $122B (inflation adjusted!) spent on SNAP, with over 40M participants

US population has increased ~20% since then, while spending has increased 1,000%; and participants increased over 200%

You can similar results to nearly every federal program that ever existed

If you want to overhaul SNAP that's one thing. But ending it all together is foolhardy.

Why? Your parents and mine grew up in a world without such a thing. Do you believe them to be stupid from their lack of education?

Why do you suppose that despite the fact we spend more per student than any time in history, we have the worse educational outcomes than any time in history?

Yes, I believe a lot of boomers who lack education are not very bright.

Where in the constitution does it forbid the President to have power over the executive branch?

You realize that Trump was legitimately kneecapped because a bunch of unelected beaurocrats stalled or stopped his agenda, right?

Nice to know you support Trump unilaterally now. A pretty big 180 from a couple days ago.
