Well done, Chairman Jeffries. Last night’s embarrassing House defeat was because Elump added a last-minute provision suspending debt ceiling limits for the next four years.

That means adding another $5 trillion to the national debt. It’s such a large number it’s almost incomprehensible. Except to the president-elect who hasn’t a clue.

It’s why he led 6 corporations into bankruptcy, and why he will do the same to faith in the U.S. Government bonds. When Putin yesterday publicly pronounced to the world press he “hadn’t talked to him [Trump] in four years” you know who’s giving idiot boy financial advice. The price for advice? Catch and kill one pee tape? Exposing the treachery of Benedict Trump?

Since mainstream media won’t cover it, and the MAGATs only care about short term impacts to their personal wellbeing. The hypocrisy drives me crazy.
