That's another thing that Dems should be fighting. The government is NOT a business, and shouldn't be run like one. The government is far larger than ALL businesses combined, and is tasked with regulating those corporations, and the business environment. Running a business, and running America, require two totally separate skill sets, which both require specialized training.

The problem is that businessmen become successful, and when you're a hammer, everything looks like a nail. So they start to think that the answer to America's problems is to apply proven business strategies, and then they get confused when it never works out. Profit should not be a nation's objective.

That's a primary reason that I automatically reject any billionaire, or even multi-millionaire, candidate. Even if their heart is in the right place (which it seldom is with Oligarchs), their policy concepts are flawed by their insistence on their adherence to profit strategies.

The bottom line is that America does not exist to make a profit.

Dems need to tie the money to Argentina directly to the the loss of the Obamacare subsidies - you are losing your health care so Trump can just give away the money to a foreign country who kisses his ass instead.

All Americans on Obamacare will be getting letters before Nov 1 informing them of the enormous increase in their health care premiums, including a LOT of MAGAs. Dems need to drill it home to those MAGAs that the reason they will be paying many times more for health care, or losing it altogether, is because they're money went to Argentina.

Why Argentina? Maybe because Argentina has a strong history of offering sanctuary to Nazis, and Trump is just buying access for when everything inevitably melts down.

He's doing to America, exactly what he did to his casinos. He didn't run them out of business because he was a terrible businessman (even though he is), it was a deliberate strategy: suck out every penny of profit, declare bankruptcy, and stick all of his creditors with the bills. Rinse, and repeat, over and over.

Now he is doing it with America, allowing all of his Psychopathic Oligarchs to loot America until there is nothing left. We see our beautiful country, but they only see a fat, rich, lazy target to be exploited into bankruptcy.

I heard today that there is some billionaire who has invested in Argentina, and was about to lose his shirt. Trump's bailout makes him a rich guy again. It looks Trump got bribed to steer tax money to save this guy's personal investment.

I hate any voice-activated programs. Sometimes I'll ask my phone to call someone, and most of the time it does. But every now and then, it seems to completely forget my voice, the English language, how to access my contacts, how to spell anything, etc. I end up spending five minutes trying to force it to dial by my voice, screaming and cursing at it like a psychopath, when it would have taken me literally 3 seconds to just make the call manually.

If you try to do some sort of voice-to-text thing, it ALWAYS screws it up so bad, that you end up spending more time editing, than if you'd just typed it yourself in the first place.

Fuck voice-activated anything. It NEVER works reliably.

We can't afford this, Argentina needs $40 billion so their leader can get a haircut that doesn't make him look like the manager of a rock band in the 70s.

Socialist insulin isn't as good as the American stuff.

Or do what Sociopathic Oligarchs do, and put it into Cheat Mode, make a ton of money, then use your money to change the rules so nobody else can use Cheat Mode.

Red state scabs like that probably get welfare. Besides, we've seen over and over that these ignoramuses would cut off their own dicks if it offended Libz.

Because she'll be the final vote to release the Epstein Files.

ALL of this is to keep the evidence of an enormous international child sex trafficking operation that included many of the highest members of our government and the most wealthy men in the world, from becoming public.

Those ICE jackals aren't doing it for the money, they do it for the love of the game.

Which is why Trump actually has a chance. If they'll give it to Kissinger for openly being an unapologetic warmonger and war criminal, or Obama for literally nothing, why not give it to Trump?
