All you will be hearing from FOX is how the crippling debt is causing the downfall of the country and what are the Democrats going to do about it?

Not a problem...... we have PLENTY of cash...... Just repeal the tax break to the 1%.. Then RAISE the taxes on people that make over...... say......5 million? Increase their Social Security cost to a percentage not a cut off at a set amount. $120,000 I think.. Remove the subsidies to big business that are making huge profits...
Just move the money around like the repukes did.. Plenty of money..
YMMV

take over the executive and legislative branches in 2021, you will see the "Tea Party" zealots, Fox "News," right wing radio, and the other confederates point fingers at the Democratic Party and place blame with them.

With our money, and leaving us with the huge debt, and giving us crumbs. He's using this to claim the economy is great under him, when its nearing collapse, and really heading us into a trump depression. When they stop , the markets will crash , which if he loses he'll do for revenge .

... is trying to excuse this overt bubble in the NASDAQ during the fuckin plague.

The only thing folk who summarize index activity have now is a vaccine that even Fauci is saying is not going to be wide use till middle of next year ... maybe and then after that we have another 4 - 6 months of distribution that will go into 2022.

Someone is poring shit tones of money into T's to squeeze folk out into equities but that's not going to last and this whole this is going to fall over.
