We’re at peak greed when the president brags about 24k gold décor for the White House while cutting commissaries, healthcare, and social nets. A palace of glitter for him, an empty pantry and hospital bill for you.

Why people are so sick of both parties: we get hurt every time Democrats win and can't enact their agenda (see: Green New Deal, Repro Access, Student Loans, Health Care). Then we get hurt every time Republicans win and hapless Dems can't stop their agenda.

This Rep Hosford clip is really something.
Spoiler: It is absolutely market manipulation
Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"
