But, of course, it’s SO reassuring to know that the fat-ass in the White House can “relate” to people not being able to pay their bills. He’s FAMOUS for not paying HIS bills, after all…
Today, White House economists (only after other economists) admitted that the shutdown’s residual effects on the economy are twice as bad as they predicted — and getting worse every day. We could head straight to recession if this goes on much longer.
And all these years I thought the US had outlawed slavery!! What else would you call it when one is forced to work without pay? Disgraceful and shameful, but then those words describe his whole administration
But they’re calling 50,000 furloughed workers back without pay. Well, actually, THEY’LL have to pay to get to work and home again and all other expenses in transit, so it’s their gift to the government? And if they refuse, what happens to them? Do they get fired?
“The Trump administration on Tuesday said it has called back tens of thousands of federal workers to fulfill key government tasks, including disbursing tax refunds, overseeing flight safety and inspecting the nation’s food and drug supply, as it seeks to blunt the impact of the longest government shutdown in U.S. history.
The nearly 50,000 furloughed federal employees are being brought back to work without pay"
Mexico will pay for the wall. But we don’t need Mexico as the Democratic Congress will pay for the wall. But we don’t need the Democrats as I already have enough votes from the Republicans. But we don’t need the Republicans because the wall has been already built. And we don’t need a wall because Border Patrol is doing a great job.
So I sent Border Patrol home. Because…border security. There, I cleared it all up for you.

Vlad sure is getting his money’s worth, isn’t he?

A one man shutdown, and extortion OK with Republicans.
A question to ask candidates running for the office in 2020. Would you be willing to use extortion for funds?

“Only I can fix it!” Donald J. Trump. Well?

He warned us while on the campaign trail – he said he would run the US like he did his businesses.
Run poorly and shut down, leaving unpaid workers in his wake.

The only public service that this administration seems to value (indeed, that most Republicans seem to value) is in the military…
