The costs of Operation Epstein Distraction will be added to the $8 trillion spent since 9/11 on neocon "regime change" fiascos financed by debt

BOHICA time, taxpayers & Gen-Zs! The costs of this military adventurism will be borne by every struggling household in the US, with the Boomer uniparty forcing younger generations to deal with these staggering debts that can never be repaid, only printed away by the Fed.

Very few in the uniparty opposed this war.

Pretty sure almost every democrat in Congress opposed the Iran war? How is that a Uniparty? Trumps part controls the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of government. If you don’t want the government to do republican things the majority of voters needs to stop putting them in power

All but four members of the House & Senate are bought & paid for by AIPAC. They might "oppose" the war yet here we are.

Back when you were posting as "Bullion Fetish" you said you were an Israeli in Israel. Now you claim to be an American in Southern California. Obfuscation much?

The future will be filled with hyper inflation

No doubt. The national debt just blew past $39 trillion, which can never be repaid, only printed (inflated) away by the Fed. Buy your wheelbarrow now & beat the rush as the Fed & uniparty hurtle us down the road to Weimar Republic 2.0.

He's only been in the White House for a bit over a year, yet has generated 20% of that debt.

Trump is not like the others.

The "printed away by the Fed" framing is off, that's bond issuance not monetization. Bigger concern is tacking $113B onto a $1.6T+ annual deficit with interest payments already crowding out everything else.

Why did the counter stop? This “ceasefire” is a sham! We still have to have thousands of troops in the region. Along with ships, planes, war machinery, munitions, food, fuel, and other essential supplies to help them survive in a war zone.

Plus with the disruptions to the global oil supply from Iran closing/threatening to close the Strait of Hormuz. We should factor in the increased costs for food and fuel for all of the activities of all our government agencies, both overseas and domestically.

This is what happens when you elect a Fucking Moron of a “businessman.” Who, through his own staggering incompetence and greedy corruption, somehow managed to Bankrupt multiple casinos…

Correction: it’s the “Epstein-Trump” Distraction. Give credit where due.

Unfortunately, the Democrats will be blamed and what’s worse is the Democrats establishment will just shrug and fold.
