Kevin Hassett Praises The Miracle Of The Orange Clown Economy
Grinning idiot Kevin Hasset says, “I don’t think any of us think” and then some other stuff, so he gets it partially correct:
Good lord, the man is innumerate.
We’ve been in Reagan’s voodoo economics for like, 50 years and have always had a deficit (except for when Bubba, er, Bill was prznint and raised taxes on rich people) and every time that a Republican is running the joint they make the deficit worse by a) cutting rich people’s taxes and b) going on a Pentagon shopping spree.
This administration is different because The Orange Clown is also running a smash-and-grab operation.
So of course the debt should be downgraded: they keep grabbing more Ameros for themselves and bringing-in less to the treasury.

Elon Musk Plans To Buy Susan Collins
Nazi-enthusiast Elon Musk has decided to throw in $100 – 120 million to help Republican candidates in the upcoming midterms, including Maine Sen. Susan Collins.
“The precise spending amounts could reportedly change,” the Portland Press Herald says, but Musk’s America PAC “is planning a field operation revolving around knocking on doors to reach voters.”
You have to wonder how glad the Collins campaign is about the world’s richest man inserting himself into a close race in which affordability and income inequality are front and center. Collins probably has some concerns – which she will probably ignore. The Herald also reported that she “had friendly meetings with Musk in the past while also saying last year she was “very concerned” about some of DOGE’s moves.” I'll bet she's gotten over those concerns by now.
