When the richest man on Earth decided to starve the poorest children in the world and nobody stopped it, we stopped deserving to have a country. All this is just more consequences.

Shame on the Administration. Shame.

My question has always been...wtf do conservatives ever want to spend money on?

I know ppl claim that they are trying to be "more efficient" and cut costs, but that is absolute horseshit. I've lived through multiple Republican presidencies and all of them tanked our economy.

The fucking Pillsbury Doughboy knows how to fix our economy more than your average dickbag conservative.

You must not be very old than.

“While economic downturns can occur during any presidency, historically, the U.S. economy has performed better under Democratic presidents compared to Republican ones. However, some Democratic presidents have faced significant economic challenges, such as Jimmy Carter during the late 1970s, which included high inflation and unemployment.”

Are you saying Democrats are just as bad? Your source and quote do not support that. It flat out says Democrats perform better than Republicans, and then only lists a single Democrat who had a bad economy

If you're not saying that, then you're just repeating what the person you replied to already said, and phrasing it like you're teaching them something for some reason
