My partner and my wife have been encouraging me to rant.
I’ve lost a lot friends (and family) over the years, both people I’ve met IRL, and those I’ve only known through social media. Pretty much every time, the dissolution has been due to politics. Now, I’m not saying I haven’t been a complete asshat from time to time, but there is one singular individual that caused most of the strife and contention.
Donald J. Trump. The twice-impeached former POTUS. You know, the guy that did this:
National debt on 1/20/17 $19,947,304,555,212.49
According to TreasuryDirect.gov, as of COB on 01/20/21, Trump added $7,804,591,681,202.28 to the national debt since inauguration day, bringing it to $27,751,896,236,414.77
That's $5,341,951,869.41 per day.
If he had been re-elected (and spending had remained constant, (which it never does), it would have been $15,609,183,362,404.56 at eight years (2,922 days).
For reference, Obama added $9,317,552,168,193.69 in his eight years in office
Oh, and this:
FixNICS
Bump stock ban
Red flag laws
"Take the guns first, go through due process second"
Appointed Chuck Canterbury (a gun grabber) to run the ATF
Appointed Bill Barr (a gun grabber) to run the DOJ
Verbal support for an assault weapons ban
Verbal support for a suppressor ban
Not to mention how he destroyed our pandemic response apparatuses right before COVID, lying to everyone about horse de-wormer and fish tank cleaner, causing over one million deaths in the US alone, tanking the US economy because of his anti-free market tariff policy, kowtowing to murderous despots, hosting people like the Taliban, Nick Fuentes, Kanyeet West-Kardassian, telling people windmill noise causes cancer, shouting out our past soldiers for storming the Revolutionary War airports, grifting more money from the American tax payer on an industrial scale to enrich himself and his family….
Oh, and let’s not forget, inciting a gigantic mob to storm the US Capitol because he’s a sore loser.
MAGA, please.
Sincerely,
Kilgore
