  1. It's amazing how many maga's in these comments have zero idea of what was in the bill or what got passed. Rather than reading even small portions of the bill, they read tweets from a South African Oligarch & that's it. 😂😂😂😂😂

  2. It’s Mind Boggling how People continually Vote against their own Self-interests, by Voting for Republicans whose only interest is to bow down to the Rich, at the Expense of People who actually Work to for a living!

  3. Why are the democrats helping? Let Drumpf and the republicunts do what they want and expose them as the arseholes they are. In two or four years the voters will not remember the democrats saving them, they will remember things going okay and think it was the republicunts that did it.

  4. i’m curious are people like Johnson, attorneys? If they lose their job within the government do they go back to private practice or are they just out of a job, I’d have to look for something else to do? If they’re attorneys I can see where they would have some sort of recourse or if they were in public life maybe they did whatever they did to, Getting finances for their coffers to survive their particular lifestyle, I’m just curious about that, because it just seems like such a tenuous thing

  5. It is totally mind-boggling the way that these politicians just empirically want to do things that will hurt the public without really addressing that issue, do they honestly just simply not care about what happens as a result of their stupidity and avaricious actions?!

  6. Trump must be spinning in his chair! In the first place you know he wants to be in control but he doesn’t wanna get his hands dirty so he tries to get others to do it and at the same time he’s trying to reign Musk in, who, I don’t know, seems to think it is actually he that is running to government but in reality all he’s doing is trying to feather his bed on our dime
