Hell, NO! We charge nearly everything. I keep a spreadsheet in which I record EVERY charge. Each charge goes into a column for type of charge (grocery, dining, clothes, ins, auto, etc. 27 cols.) Since we pay the charges off completely every month, we know how much is spent on each item every month.

I personally believe that a large number of people who still support tRump are only doing so because they do NOT have the courage to admit that they were conned and wrong to support tRump.

In case you missed it, whether or not we like it we obviously do "do kings" in America. Just ask any GQP politician in Congress or state government. I'm afraid it's going to take a miracle to put that evil genie back in the bottle. I pray every day that they all have massive non-lethal strokes!

I think he would choke to death if he ever uttered the truth. I do wonder sometimes if he was born without a conscience, or he lost it as a small child.

No sympathy from me. He got what he deserved. Everyone always thinks it will only happen to the other guy never to me. Guess what now he gets to be the other guy.

He sold his soul to the Devil (i.e. tRump). Too bad the US didn't close the borders in the 1950's and ban Cubans! We would have been spared Rubio & Cruz if had their fathers had not been allowed to immigrate to the US from Cuba!

Who's going to be blamed when the military falls extremely short of its enlistment goals? I'm sure it will be Biden's fault somehow.

"There is no cure for stupid." My condolences to you.

Clearly, you're a fan of "throwing the baby out with the bath water". Yes, there are things to cut but here's an idea. Let's examine expenditures & make an INFORMED decision. My household expenses are too high 1st I'll look for ways to use less electricity NOT turn the electricity completely off!

They don't want a King; they want an autocrat. Kings in the modern world have very little power. Dictators & autocrats wield absolute power. But the MAGAs forget that a dictator can also wield that power against THEM.

I think we are at most one "First they came for ..." until the "They came for me." In some ways I feel like we are already at the "They came for me."

This (courage & follow the advice of the Constitution) is also the null (empty) set.

He should be in hell with his father Lucifer but clearly we’ll have to wait. It is a comforting thought though to know that the one thing he CANNOT cheat is death. It will come someday even to tRump but I’m sure he thinks not. That’s how delusional he is.

Here's a thought maybe he should spend less time renaming things that don't belong to the USA and more time trying to lower the cost of living instead of raising it!
comment in response to post
It's a way to distract from his failure to lower the cost of eggs, gas, & all the other items that add to people's daily cost of living. He has been president for 3+ weeks: the day one end to the war in Ukraine has failed, eggs & gas are UP not DOWN. He's picked fights will all our longtime allies.

Pathetic one of his better qualities. He is an un-American ignorant bully trying to please his puppet master.

So, in other words, that can't get/don't want regular jobs. If they had a regular job: They'd have to do some real work without passing it off to a bunch of assistants & their salaries would have to be used for leisure travel, dining & other luxuries. No more free airplane rides & event "tickets"!

tRump does not really want to be a king. He wants to be a dictator or supreme dealer. He would like the pomp of being king but modern-day kings do not have ABSOLUTE POWER and tRump wants ABSOLUTE POWER.
comment in response to post
But he didn't say he was going to do it if it was illegal or morally corrupt, did he? tRump is definitely doing things that are unlawful and/or unconstitutional. I'm sure every president has tried to do whatever they could without Congress. But most just did it without breaking the law/constitution.

Too late. The gullible, greedy, ignorant, & prejudiced have become the majority even though by a slight margin. Unfortunately, by the time the midterms get here democracy will be a thing of the past.

The most accurate of these three is the one about the GQP in Congress! It is absolutely the best description of the GQP ever.

We wish they were just a joke. Only a few jokes are as life & death dangerous.

Isn't it nice to be perfect, to never have made a mistake. Guess you walk around with a halo over your head. Just love all these self-righteous pricks that never heard the saying "To err is human to forgive divine." As I gained knowledge & maturity many of my opinions changed! Guess you didn't.

My motto is "To hell with the cost, from now on I buy only Canadian products." No more Vermont maple syrup, only Canadian. Canadian blueberries. What else can I switch to?

So, it was a crime for Hillary to have a private email server that had more security than Pentagon computers but these yahoos who probably don't have security clearances of their own can put classified or sensitive data on USB drives. Had I done that when I was still working, I'd be in jail now.

"After World War I began in 1914, Hindenburg was recalled and achieved fame on the Eastern Front as victor of Tannenberg." Have you forgotten tRump's bone spurs? Hindenburg appointing Hitler chancellor is not the same as tRump's giving power to Musk. tRump'll never give his absolute power to Musk.

Times like this I almost regret living in Virginia (nah) because I don't need to call my senators. If I lived in a Red state (God forbid) I could feel like I might be able to do something by calling my senators.

Maybe it's a case of Dems believe "give him enough rope to hang himself" and wanting to be 100%sure there's enough rope.
comment in response to post
That's the real reason tRump is so pissed at Canada. He knows Melanoma had the hots for Justin & now he's a free man since his wife left him.
