This^? Which authoritarian dictatorship are we trying to be like? Russia? North Korea? Hungary? Have you fellers ever invested in their stocks? Why not? Ever buy anything made there? Why not? Whats their GDP? We are the worlds largest economic power, but let's try something NOT new, one that has failed miserably in other countries and hope that somehow, miraculously, it works great here. Brilliant!
Lets chuck that silly constitution that says congress makes spending decisions and leave it up to the self-described "the king of debt" with 6 bankruptcies, 34 felonies + his buddy with billions in govt contract conflicts of interest. Just those two. Blow up the building first, then see which bulbs were not LED. Trust us, we're patriots and we're doing this for you.
Did you know? If we fire ALL the government employees we can save 6% of our yearly budget! Brains! These people weren't working at all anyway, right? Right? We're ALL about efficiency! Golf is $3.4 million per pop, but don't touch that. $10 mil to go to the Indy race. Leading by example. We are conservatives. Hey, not to change the topic, but big tax cut coming your oligarch way! Last time we ran the debt up $7.8 trillion, the largest in America's history. Were gonna be "doing numbers" like we've never seen before! MAGA!
answer: the GDP of Russia, N Korea, and Hungary COMBINED is less than "socialist" California.
