No one ever asks how Trump will pay for another round of massive tax cuts No one ever asks how we will pay for the second Great Recession caused by 20% blanket tariffs & mass deportations We only pretend to care about debt & paying for things when it's social welfare, student loan debt, etc.

Because Trump only does interviews with Tucker and Hannity who have their tongues plunged deeply inside Daddy Trump's sticky treason hole They aren't asking tough questions and they let him lie and spout nonsense as they fondle his balls

The two sides thing doesn’t work when you let one side slide but hammer the other over things they don’t even control. 😳

Headline: Trump Budget Proposal to Add 4 Trillion to US Debt Vs Harris Plan. Media: 🥱 Kamala Harris has one policy proposal. Media: 🤬 How’s she going to pay for that!?!? Trump, save us!!!!

Nor are we asking how we’re about to pay for the massive war we seem powerless not to slide into.

I can even take the “only asking Dems how they’ll pay for their plans” BS…. what the hell happened to the media in 2024 where they ask that question, get the “civics 101” answer, and then the interviewer reacts like he was just told magic fairies will lay platinum eggs to pay for it?🤦‍♂️

So true. Should be on a poster on the walls in journalism schools and at media companies. Could add VP Cheney’s quote “Deficits don’t matter. This is our due.”

And certainly no one ever transcribes trump's unintelligible answers the way they do every misspoken syllable of her answer. "...firefighters are paying a har-- higher tax rate..."
