The RINO-in-Chief has saved nothing. He is close to being the biggest debtor POTUS in history.. Consumer sentiment is the lowest in years. Entitlement reserves allowing full benefits are drying up on Trump's watch without a fix. We're in an illegal Gulf region war. https://t.co/4gdGxLA0Ol pic.twitter.com/pNereBu4dR

I think this video is fake. The judge ruled Trump's name be removed 2 days ago and it's probably being appealed. I agree with the judge, though. https://t.co/SmgJ3mh0zU

This is morally contemptible xenophobia. The natural rights of all persons/residents (including asylum seekers) must be respected by government, including due process rights, which have often been violated by the Trump regime. https://t.co/bqHtFHkqW7 pic.twitter.com/mOIeZw5hX8

No. And I have been a Never Trump llbertarian/conservative. It is true that Trump lawlessly opposed ratification of 2020 election results but Dems controlled Congress, and Trump vacated the White House at the end of his term. He had exhausted judicial appeals.

You mean, like Biden, when he kicked your ass in 2020?
— raguillemette (@raguillemette) June 1, 2026
Nope. That is based on his stock holding valuations, not cash. Global markets have reduced poverty to the lowest levels in human history. We need to stop treating the economy as a morally corrupt, fixed, zero-sum division of pie.

The Math Illiterate Liar-in-Chief is suggesting fraud constitutes why we have a baked-in $2T deficit. No, it's his uncontrolled bloated spending and inadequate spending cuts. Whereas fraud waste is significant, it's closer to 5% of spending, maybe a tenth of the deficit. https://t.co/uQ8AWOuQVY pic.twitter.com/fGvznhaOMy

Thune forgets that Obama deported more criminals than Trump and migration had started to stabilize before Trump started his second term after the end of Title 42.

Given how long Trump has taken to "negotiate" a peace deal with Iran, I think we can rule out a future hosting gig with "Let's Make a Deal".
— raguillemette (@raguillemette) June 2, 2026
Trump is not a peacemaker. He lives in a black-and-white world where he demonizes his opponents. He has withdrawn from international agreements and bodies, threatened other NATO members and to annex countries, and signed into law the largest defense budgets in world history. https://t.co/dUtx0WVPfs

That's seriously the funniest thing Trump has ever said. As Brion McClanahan would point out, this is Trumpist bombast as usual.

Trying to get the Senate GOP to push back on Trump's tone-deaf request for his pet ballroom public funding was like pulling teeth. You couldn't ask for a worse "let them eat cake" moment, as many Americans are struggling to pay basic expenses.

The only time in decades did a Dem POTUS balance a budget, Clinton faced a GOP House and accepted welfare reform. Trump inherited a baked-in $2T deficit from Biden. Neither Congress nor POTUS will touch the 70+% of mandatory sending. We are now spending more to service the debt.
