  1. Funny how they love to spend your money… But when you need it they don’t wanna give it to you. And it’s your tax dollars.

    1. @4 Touchdowns in one game I don’t think their chances in the house look good either! The Supreme Court gave the Dems a huge shot I’m the arm!
      Hopefully it pays off!

    2. @Sun Dial No….you are probably in line for the next Rally.
      Silly of me to think that MAGAs read.
      To actually read anything is no doubt a violation of MAGA by-laws.

    1. @Big Bold Beauty Pretty good a a LIE yourself Trump fell off the top 400 list but he is still there. You can hate all you like but it does not make it true. “Former President Donald Trump was not included on the annual Forbes 400 ranking of the wealthiest Americans – the first time he hasn’t made the cut in 25 years.

      Forbes reported the former president is worth an estimated $2.5 billion, which is $400 million short of the cutoff to make this year’s list.”

    1. @WE THE PEOPLE 🙌 aww…do you need a safe space ? isn’t there some toy you haven’t seen since you were crapping your Diapers that’s upsetting you ?

    1. @Big Bold Beauty I’m confident that the “beauty” part of your name is satirical.

    2. @Soulcrew Blue I knew there was one in there that I probably read wrong. Hey I am getting old – want be the first time.

  2. Sneaky Rick Scott was trusted with money 💰 for others. LoL. Guess Mitch doesn’t recall Rick’s work with Medicare in Florida.

    1. He just got back from Italy pushing his ignorant racism on them, not a dime of his money went to that trip. He’s so gross.

  3. “GOTTA SPEND MONEY TO MAKE MONEY!”
    What did you spend the money on?
    “Matt Gaetz wanted to take more underaged girls on ‘vacations’”

    1. I imagine the GOP is spending 30-40% of their campaign contributions on legal fee’s at this point. I think there are 4, maybe 5 Republicans that aren’t currently under a felony investigation or named as a defendant in a felony case.

    1. @Rocky Mtn-Thai whats trumps goal? Power? He already had that decades ago. Money? Same. Whats Trump using people for?

    2. @WE THE PEOPLE 🙌 Except it’s true that Trump IS a fascist. Don’t you think the current president should call it out?

  4. Still waiting to hear an intelligent Republican candidate articulate the Republican policy agenda if they regain control of Congress.

    1. Bla bla bla, impeach Biden, bla bla bla, impeach Fauci, bla bla bla, reduce taxes for rich people, bla bla bla, impeach Pelosi…

  5. This is the party of personal responsibility and alleged to be better with the budget. What happened? Could it be everything they claim to be, is a lie? Shocking.

    1. @Don Newton — We did too, but that focused more on micro and macro economic theory, not on personal money management.

  6. Florida resident here. Speaking from experience, if money has gone missing you may want to check Rick Scott’s bank accounts for an answer. That is all.

  7. Americans must realise just how uniquely strange it is how much cash flows through American election cycles. By far the biggest-ever contribution to any political party here in the Netherlands was €1 million and it made national news.
    I don’t have all figures for all European countries. Just know that the US is unique in the sense that elections are being bought.

    1. In denmark you can give 50.000 dansih kroner , but we have seen cases where contributers are paying more under the table . But it is true , american laws are just to old ffassion , and also it is made by crooks to protect crooks ….sending agriculture thoughts to holland:-)

    2. @Patriotz Finder that is all over europe , we even have within eu parlament diffrent peaple targeting froud with funds , even if you just take home pens for your family ….you can get in trouble in worst case …europe and america is so diffrent …..and to be hornest …i am happy i dont live in the states ….

    3. @hector davila the thought is fantastic , why dont you start by going to your boss and tell him you work for free .:-) …the end .

  8. The funny thing is they probably pay around 3% to the credit card processor to charge it and get charged another 3% to refund it.

    1. But you know I can mail mail it tomorrow 😯😶‍🌫️😬😑

    1. THEY believe in “balanced budgets” but that’s not a good thing, actually. There is no financial return when the private sector has a net savings. EVER. Deficit is eternal. Get used to it.

  9. That what happens when you engage the guy who was running the company implicated in the largest healthcare scandal in US history to be in charge of your money

  10. Look in Rick Scott’s pocket. I’ll bet they’d find some of the money. He’s always been an embezzler. My deceased father receives 10-20 emails a day from Trump and Trump, Jr. begging for money. He was a republican, but he never sent a dime to anyone, but they bombard his email daily. I’ve tried to unsubscribe him over and over, but it never works. They prey on the old. Bad, bad people.

  11. Well done to whomever persuades Scott to spend that money. And these are the politicians who say they can run the US economy.

    1. He said he was going to send mail mail 😢🤬😶‍🌫️😓🤥😬😲😮‍💨

  12. I remember how Mr. McConnell talked down to Americans regarding unemployment benefits during the pandemic. But yet, we see how the GOP gets their campaign contributions and we see how it disappeared.
