‘Humbly, I’m sorry’: Marjorie Taylor Greene says she’s turning a new leaf after years of divisive comments
Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said Sunday she will stop using “toxic” rhetoric, marking what would be a dramatic shift in a political brand hallmarked by derogatory comments.www.ctvnews.ca
While she is saying the right things, it’s really hard to feel sorry for her given her past participation in that sort of thing.
Time will tell if she will practice what she preaches.
No. Is it worth watching?Did you watch the recent Real Time episode with her ?

Given the level of understanding on how tariffs work, I doubt they had a clue how that worked.Did none of those people ever think about how ordinary US taxpayers felt about the money US politicians were willing to spend around the world?
Quoting what appears to be our British friends.The headline of that article reads like a petulant child that got his toy taken away for not doing his chores.
Maybe they should have spent a bit more time learning about yellow cake uranium and Niger over 20yrs ago when the most recent bleeding of US treasure started.Did none of those people ever think about how ordinary US taxpayers felt about the money US politicians were willing to spend around the world?

It isn’t just us. And they are not wrong,

To be the world's Reserve Currency and the stay the Reserve Currency requires the continuous spending of copious amounts of money. They can make the choice to give up this mantel and pass it along to the next contender as is the process of following world history. Or, if they like, they can try Door #2 and attempt to black mail the rest of the western world into following their lead, to keep the music going, and have us spend our money with theirs in keeping the gig from being up for another decade or two.
During that time period, the next 1 to maybe 2 decades, they better hope that China self-implodes, effectively removing themselves from being the next contender.
Also, pissing about 12 billion to US Farmers one minute and then talking about applying even more tariffs on CDN Potash the next doesn't give anyone on this side of the border any warm and fuzzy feeling that the current administration has anything figured out on how not to piss away US taxpayer money.Maybe they should have spent a bit more time learning about yellow cake uranium and Niger over 20yrs ago when the most recent bleeding of US treasure started.

Maybe - having 40+ million Americans on food stamps doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy feeling that they have it all figured out.China will implode, demographically and probably economically. The US today on the other hand is the best positioned country on the planet when it comes to demographics and geography - which means economically as well.
