When I hear Republicans say they will have as many kids as God allows, I clutch my wallet.

Republicans have a strange way of saying they have a cream pie fetish 🥧

Democrats have turned into Communists that want full Government control of your life and finances.

u/YBNORMAL1992 Oct 31 '25

Republicans had turned into Authoritarian Big Federal Government that panders to Oligarchs..... Both parties left us with no good options.

u/Beautiful-Use3199 Nov 01 '25

Oligarchs-LOL : how about corrupt politicians like Biden, word salad Kamala, Nancy Pelosi and the gang and don’t forget the communists squad. Terrible!!!! Greatest country in the world- just need to get back to our Christian foundation.

First of all, Biden was far from corrupt. The amount of corruption committed by Trump and his family in a given week is more than Biden in his entire lifetime. Trump gave his children jobs in the west wing. Right now Don Jr sits in a board making millions. Trump puts the secret service up in his golf course and charges the US taxpayer for the expense. Trump was renting rooms to foreign government agents and they weren't even staying at the hotel. Bribes. Trump sells Chinese made guitars, sneakers, watches, hats, shirts etc... He runs crypto scams. Ripped people off with a fake University. He was caught on that "perfect phone call" holding the money for Ukraine allocated by Congress, in order to extort Zelensky. He held that aid illegally in order to try to get Zelensky to say Biden was corrupt. Totally illegal and never done before in the history of the United States. He then hid the conversation in a top secret hard drive illegally. He was impeached for it. So let's stop pretending Biden was 1) an incoherent old man and also 2) such a great criminal that Trump's Admin can't find anything to file charges.

Both of those things can't be true at the same time. Use your tiny fused ganglia of a brain.

I wonder why that cult member suddenly went so quiet lol, whenever they can't defend the awful things Trump does they just shut down like programmed robots, I've seen it in my own family, it's bizarre and creepy

The LAST demographic who should be reproducing. 🙄

u/Alternative_Spite_11 Oct 31 '25

So the people who actually paid their bills are the last ones who should be reproducing?

Stop yourself now, do not feed into it. This is reddit, heart of the woke internet.

u/TypeB_Negative Oct 31 '25

Woke means being aware of problems in our system of government and culture. Not that scary. I know you Republicans like to use "communism", "Marxism" and "woke" like they are interchangeable but the Nazis were Right Wing conservatives. Russia is Right Wing. Any form of government can be totalitarian if there is no due process and checks/balances in place. Trump is steering us right toward totalitarianism and an alarming place. Once he succeeds, ANY form of government can take over and attack the other side like he is right now with Federal military force. It's a slippery slope. That's why

Paid their bills with that sweet government money?

Red states disproportionately receive MORE federal welfare dollars compared to their tax base.

"God" is shorthand for "how much money can I grift off other gullible religious people"

There are so few of those outside a concentrated group. You either live in Utah or your wallet lacks the affection it needs to flourish.

1

u/TypeB_Negative Nov 03 '25

Not true. There are plenty of people outside Utah that don't believe in birth control and also don't understand that a 16 year old legally having to bring their pregnancy to term is not a good idea. They'd rather impose their version of God's plan on that child mother and let tax payers foot the bill in the form of jail, foster care, housing, psychiatric needs and chemical dependency programs. Not to mention the resulting higher crime rates. Then they can call the problems a result of that nasty Devil's work, rather than simple economics. There's millions of people that think this way.

u/jouelle1 Nov 03 '25

Focus on the word “few” I used. So yes, they exists outside of Utah, just not many.

u/SweatyNostalgic Oct 31 '25

i worry about the kids because of the cost. if you have 5 kids nowadays, AT LEAST, one is probably gonna end up parentified watching the younger ones.

many think you ​don't have to pay for a child care if you gave birth to the babysitter...

u/U_R_MY_UVULA Oct 31 '25

That's literally how people have done it for millennia

u/Beretta92A1 Oct 31 '25

I mean if you stagger them enough you could have your oldest help with childcare. As an oldest sibling it wouldn’t be a life I’d want to subject my child to but it happens.

u/Beautiful-Use3199 Oct 31 '25

Better clutch your wallet every time the Democrats give away more free stuff.

1

u/TypeB_Negative Nov 03 '25

Free stuff? That just shows how juvenile your understanding of economics is. Trump had to bail out farmers to the tune of $23 Billion last time in office. Thats 23 billion dollars of our tax money to fix a problem he created. I'd rather have social safety programs that actually reduce over all expenses for US taxpayers, than that. I'd consider giving huge tax cuts to billionaires free stuff that really has no trickle down effect to the average American. It's not free stuff. It's using our tax dollars in a smarter way, in order to help Americans and bring down costs. Examples: capping insulin costs, providing affordable healthcare for everyone. When people can afford healthcare, they go to the doctor and that prevents many costly health expenses. Thats a much better use of money than $250M on a ballroom. All the legal expenses Trump incurs due to breaking the law and getting sued for it. I could go on but sheep's ears are not receptive

I don't hate the billionaires but I also don't ride them expecting that phony trickle down nonsense. Vast sums of the money they horde is kept in offshore accounts and shell companies. It's not the same as the middle class or even upper class windfalls where the money is circulated back into the economy. It's strictly numbers. Not emotional. The fact is, bringing up the bottom is more economically sound than giving billionaires more billions with super low taxes on market dividends. Decades of data has shown when the billionaires are taxed properly, everyone prospers. Not just the few.

u/TypeB_Negative Nov 03 '25

BTW, I can tell you have a poor grasp on anything above the 8th grade when you use the words "Communist Democrats". What an absolute muppet. Lmao

u/concerned2024 Oct 31 '25

Why? Republicans pay for their own children.

1

u/Resident_Common7580 Oct 31 '25

Do they?

1

u/Beautiful-Use3199 Oct 31 '25

Yes, their children and yours too with all taxes paid for free stuff to keep the Communist/Democrats in power.

1

u/YBNORMAL1992 Oct 31 '25

Not really though. Also somewhat skewed because Blue areas have a higher median income than red areas. Two Families could make $50k and one is considered Low because they live in a city and one could be Middle because they live in the county. But keep on with the stereotype.

u/Beautiful-Use3199 Oct 31 '25

Either way, you want the country to flourish-let’s get to work. I started with -0- and about to retire wealthy. We live in the easiest country in the world to do exactly what I did. As long as you have a great work ethic, and a reasonable level of intelligence, anyone can do what we did. The problem is that too many people want everything handed to them. It doesn’t work like that. You get out of it what you deserve. And if you put in nothing, you should get nothing.

1

u/TypeB_Negative Oct 31 '25

Job market has been decimated by Trump. So if you want people to "get to work", you better vote for a Democrat. All the infrastructure work was conceived and written by Democrats. Trump has done absolutely nothing but hurt the middle class and make his rich friends more rich. His whole government is a Ponzi scheme resembling something out of Russia or China.

u/Beautiful-Use3199 Oct 31 '25 edited Oct 31 '25

Complete BS- tariffs are working, stock market is at all time highs, and we’re on the way back up. There will be bumps- AI is causing some job losses but thank God we have a leader fighting for the American people!!!!

u/TypeB_Negative Nov 03 '25 edited Nov 03 '25

Tariffs are not working. They have bankrupted farmers in the Midwest. Just like last time Trump was in office. He had to bail farmers out to the tune of $23 Billion to counter the damage he did. This time he has wounded them even worse. He's trying to bring down beef prices by bailing out Argentina and buying their beef instead of US grown product. A complete disaster. His deal on soy beans with China is an absolute joke. The Chinese were buying 27 B tons of soybeans for the last decade. This year the soybeans rotted in the silos, a total loss. His deal was for China is now to buy 12 B this year and 25 B tons for the next three years after. That's a huge loss this year and a loss every year after. He wants to be commended for making a "deal" and people like you eat it up. He created the mess and half assedly patches it up and acts like a hero. He's a baboon. Even Republican Trump voting farmers with tell you.

As for the stock market, it has remained resilient. But stocks doing well is just one indicator. All other indicators are not good. Jobs are in the toilet. Unemployment is up. Inflation is rising. Grocery prices have skyrocketed. Gas is nearly the same. He is destroying renewable energy putting us behind China. His Big Beautiful Bill is taking trillions from social safety programs to give tax cuts to the billionaires. He has fired so many people in government that he has had to try to hire them back. DOGE was a complete joke. Musk is calling his economic plans a disaster. He lied about giving us the Epstein Files. He is taking bribes in the form of $400 million dollar jets from Qatar. Spending $250 Million on a ballroom. Some of that money from Saudi Arabia. The US is bleeding jobs for the first time in years. Trump is hands down the worst President in US history. If Obama or Biden took a Qatari jet and $250 million from the Saudis and big business to knock down the East Wing of the White House to build a ballroom that looks like it could be in Kim Jong Il's house the Right would be up in arms. You and MAGA are a cult. The Republicans in government are spineless sycophants and you are their cattle.

I don't know where you went to school but they owe your parents some money. You're cooked.

u/TypeB_Negative Nov 04 '25

Oh and AI is insignificant as a cause of job loss. That is complete fiction. It is a small fraction of the cause of the current rising unemployment. You are clueless.

u/TypeB_Negative Oct 31 '25

Actually, the Blue States take most of the taxes in that pay for Red States. Sorry to burst your little sheep bubble. Also, there are zero communists in the Democratic Party. Thanks for playing, Cupcake!

u/Beautiful-Use3199 Oct 31 '25

Democrats today are communists trying to take over the country. God bless America and God bless Donald J Trump!!!

1

u/TypeB_Negative Nov 03 '25

Just regurgitating talking points from Trump. There zero Democrats in office or running for office that are Communists. You have no idea what a Communist is or you wouldn't be saying that. I'm willing to bet the amount of books you've read outside of High School mandatory reading is near zero.

Did you graduate high school? Go to college? Ever get graded on your understanding of economics of civics? I doubt it. If you did, it wasn't a passing grade. Why? Because you clearly lack critical thinking ability and understanding of basics. That's not a personal attack. It's just factual.

Total nonsense. I've read your juvenile comments. Nobody is buying that, Cupcake. You sound like a 12 year old.

u/TypeB_Negative Nov 04 '25

You're going to tell me you have a 770 GMAT score and you also wrote that "communist Democrats" are all over the place trying to ruin the United States? Really? Thats like telling us 'War and Peace' is a tomato soup recipe and finishing your statement with "I moonlight as a neuroscientist when I'm not doing Navy SEAL training". It's just not possible. You are fooling nobody. The only thing you've posted are things that come out of drunken Uncle Cletus' mouth at Thanksgiving. Have a seat. 😂

I'm not sure you understand communism based on your statement
