$21 TRILLION? We'll have that debt paid off in no time boys!


Seriously, what has happened to Trump? This is bad, bad, bad. Literally buying votes for a promised $5000 that will never come, and even if it did it would add $1.3 trillion to the debt and send inflation soaring yet again.

Who is advising him?

Two things:

1. He is in obvious mental decline as many people, especially men, are when they get to 79 - 80 years old - remove the politics from it; anyone who has had loved ones act like he has over the last few years at his age recognizes it.

2. His cabinet isn't nearly as capable this go around except potentially Rubio; "drain the swamp" and all that shite - fricking bullshite. Mattis, Pompeo, Tillerson, Haley, Zinke, Kelly, Mnuchin, et al were all way, way more capable than the clowns he has in there now. His only criteria this go around was loyalty, not competence. Good advisors disagree with leaders, something Trump has a tough time with; Trump was hellbent on getting revenge for perceived slights this go around, not on actually governing, and he wanted buffoons who would kowtow to his every whim.
