The US Debt Problem
According to ChatGPT, the US debt problem is caused by Republicans Gaslighting us. When Democrats are in charge, they whine about the debt. When Republicans are in charge, nothing matters and they keep blaming Democrats. Tired old and stupid is no way to go through life, son 😂 The U.S. national debt has grown under both Republican and Democratic presidents, but the largest increases in raw dollar terms and as a share of GDP have often occurred under Republican administrations, especially in recent decades. Here's a general breakdown: Modern Historical Context (Post-World War II to Present): Democratic Presidents: Bill Clinton (1993–2001) Reduced deficits, and even had a budget surplus by the end of his second term. Barack Obama (2009–2017) Inherited the 2008 financial crisis. Debt increased significantly due to stimulus and recession-related spending, but the deficit was steadily reduced later in his term. Joe Biden (2021–present) Debt increased with COVID relief continuation, infrastructure, and Inflation Reduction Act. However, deficits began to shrink in the short term post-pandemic. Republican Presidents: Ronald Reagan (1981–1989) Initiated major tax cuts and increased defense spending. The national debt tripled during his presidency. **George W.

Bush (2001–2009) Tax cuts, wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and Medicare Part D led to a sharp increase in debt. Donald Trump (2017–2021) Passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, increasing the debt by over $7 trillion, even before the pandemic. COVID-19 stimulus further expanded it. Bottom Line: While both parties have contributed to the national debt, Republican administrations have generally overseen larger increases, particularly when factoring in tax cuts without offsetting spending cuts. Democrats have historically increased spending too, but have more often paired it with higher taxes or targeted deficits during downturns. Would you like a chart showing debt growth by president or adjusted for GDP?

Gold hits fresh record high over trade war impact fears
No, that would be Gordon Brown in 1999 when UK chancellor of the exchequer. He sold 395 tonnes of gold when the market was at a multi-decade low. The reasoning behind this was to 'diversify' the UK asset base. Ended up costing the UK billions of pounds. -

Trump ‘IS Going to Run’ for Third Term, Bannon to Maher: ‘He’s Gonna Be President’ in 2029
well said. My 2 cents worth is that if only that bullet was 1 inch closer to his big head we would not be going through all of this. -
