At least there aren’t any more mean tweets…
Tim Scott says
Also no more undercutting of NATO and inviting Putin to annex the neighbors.
No more unqualified family members drawing half a million each as “advisors.”
No more shooting TV ads for donors in the oval office.
The list is sooooooo long here…
America's Most Sleeps With a TrumpyBear says
Yeah, I’d rather go bankrupt and hungry with Sleepy Joe than have energy independence, a great economy and have to endure those mean tweets.
Tim Scott says
You do know that Trump’s claims about “energy independence,” like pretty much every other claim he has ever made, are just lies, right?
America's Most Under Energized says
I know that gas, electricity and natural gas were a lot cheaper under the Orange Man. That ‘s a fact (see, I can have one fact every once in a while).
FWB says
Well I prefer to live with Trump lies rather than Biden’s lies as it’s cheaper at the pump.
America's Most Insufferable Gasbag says
LOL. Well said FWB.
Tim Scott says
Not in the long run FWB. You might think life would be fine in the kind of totalitarian state that Trump’s lies have pushed us to the brink of, but I don’t think you’d like it.
FWB says
oh yeah Tim I see Trump’s lies every time I fill up my gas tank under the Biden administration. smh wtf
Sorry I’ve been drinking with my undocumented hard working co-workers today.. wtf is Hurricane High Gravity.. I should have stuck with the tequila.
Tim Scott says
SMH, WTF indeed. As in WTD does “the administration” have to do with the price of tea in China?
Errrrm…make that gas at the pump.
Gas prices are determined by supply and demand and the desire for profits among the cartel of suppliers. The supply, the demand, and the desire are all barely tangential to the question of who occupies what office of government.
What we have here is the basic GOP blame game. They have no ideas about how to govern what is happening. In fact, they have no clue as to what even makes what happens happen. They just operate on “if something seems bad, blame the democrats, if it is good claim credit” and pump the volume to eleven.
America's Most Spewing Malarkey says
While my reply languishes in the black hole of moderation, let me say that my wife said to me: “You don’t know anything”. I replied: “Have you been talking to Tim Scott?”
Thomas W says
Sorry Tim, but AMSM post was one of the funniest in a long time.
Tim Scott says
Why apologizing to me for it? I thought it was hilarious that his wife agrees with me.
FWB says
I can , understand William’s passion for TDS. But my friend Tim appears to have a bit more upstairs so I find his pov and opinions a tad more interesting.
TV ads in the Oval Office.. smh bad for sure.
half a million dollar salaries for unqualified advisors who are family members.. smh bad for sure, yet still nothing when compared to 10% for the big guy.
Tim Scott says
Well, reality being “nothing” compared to a fantasy leads to divorce.
Beecee says
Irreconocible difference…
