Reminds me of this spoken word poem, Pulse of the Motherland by Dr. Dabinga.
Spotify has the performance.

Israel better come up with a bigger bribe if it wants to compete with Qatar and Saudi Arabia. Trump's policy positions-as far as he has policy positions-is based on his own enrichment.

That MAGA hardiners think austerity & tax cuts for the wealthy will "jumpstart" the economy, which didn't need jumpstarting until Trump trade policies & DOGE tanked it, is mindboggling.
That Dems aren't in their districts with a bullhorns taking about ALL Trump's budget cuts is also mindboggling.

Did it actually "go bankrupt" through its own poor management, or did PE intentionally saddle it with debt knowing it would collapse in order to make billions?
It seems that it's the latter scenario more often than the former lately.
