    The thing is, these arseholes don’t see the poor, the needy or basically anyone who can’t do them a favour or help them in any way to accumulate wealth, as people. We’re nothing to them, less than nothing and they don’t care if we die.

    Not just Trump. These decisions were heavily pushed by Elon Musk. He is a stain on human civilization.

    Between this and the Americans who died from his botched COVID response, Trump has killed way more people than Osama Bin Laden.

      Trump’s playing in the big league of nutty mass-killing autocrats. He has already outdone Idi Amin and has people like Mao, Stalin and Hitler in his sights. I bet he’d take pride in that too, particularly the Hitler bit.

          Ah right, America is paid for and run by foreigners. I always forget that.

            About a third of American wealth and debt are held by foreign entities. So in large part, yes. Where are you from, that is without sin (besides, clearly, judgment)? I would like to move there.

              Individual income taxes account for $2.66 T or 51.8% of the US revenue. Social Security and Medicare taxes make up another 33%.

              Lol, always the same attempt at whataboutism. Rest assured I think little of my country either.
