I hate when politicians or there spoke person plays word games to exaggerated something. Yes gas prices are dropping and it's a wonderful thing. Saying it's the lowest if adjusted for inflation is ********. Our paychecks wasn't adjusted for inflation so the price is still high

The debt limit has been an unreported win for the Trump admin as they avoided the time bomb the left and clowns like Massie left for them on day 1 of Trump's admin. First, the freedom caucus torpedoes the CR that would have raised the debt limit and would have given Trump some breathing room. Then, on Jan 17th, the sec. of treasury yellen informed the Speaker that the debt limit would be reached within the week just as Trump was sworn into office. She also stated that the extraordinary measures would be used up in a couple of months if the debt limit wasn't addressed and the US would default.

So, on day 1, Trump was faced with a possible default. This was clearly a trap ( especially as we find out that the Biden admin pushed out more than $120 billion during the period after the election until Jan 20th) . The dems and rinos thought this would at the very least require Trump to go hat in hand to the dems and agree to business as usual in the swamp.

For those playing at home, it's now almost June, and we haven't defaulted, and in fact, we have a surplus atm. The current sec of treasury says we should be good until August at least.

How did Trump avoid the trap?

EOs freezing spending
EOs resurrecting spending
Eos hiring freeze.
Layoffs
DOGE
Treasury Sec actions
Tariffs
Scaling back some campaign promises like immediate mass deportation program, among others.
A good tax season.

I have to wonder if the dems and freedom Caucus didn't set the trap if Trump would have accomplished all he has? He was literally under the gun and moved mountains to keep the imaginary debt limit trap from springing without needing the dems.

Marxists using their useful-idiot (and dangerous) Islamists is the existential threat to the West.

We must defund and ostracize the Marxists.

And we must round up, arrest, and expel the Islamists.

They are not here to assimilate.

They are here to conquer.

Send. Them. Home.
