Bill Clinton was responsible for a lot of that too because of the housing bubble he created that crashed.

Clinton wanted everyone to be able to own a home so he got regulations lifted. Everyone and their dog could qualify for houses they could never afford with crappy ARM mortgages and no down payment because of what Clinton did. It all crashed down by the end of GWs presidency..

Literally, every other house was in foreclosure or short sell in all the neighborhoods around where I live..

Obama was a communist on domestic policy and a NeoCon on foreign policy.

I don’t remember the year, but one year under Obama we launched missles or dropped bombs into 8 different sovereign nations. In one year.

Obama dropped more bombs than GWB. They almost ran out at one point.

Also, Libya is a total disaster to this day. Remember when Congress called him out in it and they claimed it was Military Kinetic Activity, and Congress was like oh, well, um, carry on I suppose.

And Syria

And the wedding party they bombed

And the Doctors Without Borders they killed in the accidental hospital strike

What a foreign policy shite show.

He really wasn’t. The cocksucker Barney Frank and Bill Clinton were though.

Well, I blame the Democrat party for pushing “everyone deserves own a home.

We have the C-SPAN video clips from 2004 when the bush administration raised the yellow flags and all minorities in the Democrat party pushed back claiming it was racist to suggest that there was a problem looming, yet you had Fannie Mae CEO making like $90 million in five years , they were caught getting massive bonuses by fabricating their finances in their books

… remember there was a huge audit.

So I don’t know about all the banking system controlling the politicians I could see that, but at the end of the day, the Democrat leadership who are in front of a microphone in front of the TV and telling the world everyone deserves to own a home and putting pressure on banks to provide aggressive lending on the table was what led to the financial crisis in 2008

The Democrats crafty put a lot of the blame on Republicans and Wall Street greed.

It’s quite remarkable.

What about the expansion of the "JV team"? I guess we're just forgetting about how ISIS took over a large swath of the ME during Obama's 2nd term.

King is the GOAT for election night coverage and knowledge of the electorate.

Outside of that, he’s the same as the rest.

NO SINGLE PRESIDENT CAUSED the 2008 Housing Crash,

some of you people just don’t get it!

it’s THE SYSTEM, THE MACHINE, THE BANKING CARTEL that controls them ALL, except for Trump.

Frick the Bushes, Clinton’s. Obama’s, etc etc!

the Fed Resereve creates “financial bubbles”
that purposely bust & then “oh, too big to fail, print more money”

but the housing crisis started with the 1st Bush, more early years in Clinton stating that “Everyone should own a house, even though you have a 400 credit score and can’t spell credit”

the FED FORCED FDIC BANKS TO WRITE LOANS.
Fannie Mae
Freddie Mac

110% financing
hyper inflated appraisals
credit fraud out the WAZOO!

it’s all part of the schemes they run!

just like WAR, follow the money!

Finance both sides
supply weapons on mass scales
blow shite up
Play “KING-MAKERS”
Distract the Public
and “Oh, now we have to “rebuild a sand pit shithole”

“Hey Halliburton, yeah, go rebuild IRAQ”

bunch of BS

but some of you guys need to see the big picture!


This looks like a long, unhinged diatribe, like so many others. But, it is spot on.

Libya was all Obama.

Bombing the shite out of them because of an “Arab spring” which has destabilized Libya to this day.

After almost a decade of liberals trying to act “anti war”. That was when I was fully aware of the uniparty.

Russia taking the Crimea was a pretty big thing. Russia stopped aggressive tactics during Trump and started back under Biden in Ukraine

-The rise of ISIS occurred under Obama's watch when he rushed the exit from Iraq.
-Russia invaded Ukraine and took Crimea and the Donbas region.
-The Libya civil war and the Bengazi disaster happened

ISIS was taking over when we exited, regardless of whether we rushed. The only way to prevent this was if we had found a talented strong man, such as Saddam, and installed him and supplied him with weapons.

That’s what we should have done right after we captured Saddam. I was all for that war, but we should never have deluded ourselves that we could build a democracy.

He's the one that did the coup in Ukraine in 2014. So that one's on him.
