@@NobodyC13 Don't worry about that, Trump will destroy himself and the Republican party along the way. The cut to Social Security that is on the way is going to put on to the streets the largest protest in US history and tank Trump to the lowest ever recorded for any President in history to 0% support. When it comes to Social Security it's not just the old people but their children who will need to finance their parents in retirement, instead of buying a house they will need to pay for their parents nursing home or bills - talk about a disaster on historic levels. 100 million Americans protesting will pretty much freeze up the economy while Trump battles everyone around him. This is not some crazy prediction this is how it will occur because there is no other way.

I watched the reopening of Notre Dame in Paris, all the heads of states arriving, including our President-Elect, and then... Elon Musk showed up! Apparently he just showed up and nobody dared to create a scandal by telling him he couldn't do as he just pleased. He might be the richest man on the planet, but he doesn't own the world.

[@jaebeablessings1005]

Oh, it going to get worse

[@manbtm1]

It’s becoming absolutely pathetic and everything we were warned of, but the majority of Americans seem to be just fine with it , which is even more pathetic. Just wait till it plays itself out , the most ironic thing is that the world‘s richest people that run the Republican party successfully degraded the Democratic Party as nothing but “liberal elites” and meanwhile, just look in the mirror at these Republicans, they have more money than anyone and plan to control everyone with it... Stupid reigns in America. It’s unbelievably obvious.

Congress and the senate shouldn't be paid while the government is shut down. After all, they ARE the government.

[@ericsmith6394]

Won't work. Their salary is nothing compared to what they get from stock trades and business deals. If you want someone to care about shutting down your government services you'll have to elect someone who isn't already rich.

[@angeliclucas301]

They sure as hell shouldn’t get a raise

[@smithdakotalee]

They’re all rich anyway lol not that I disagree they should be made to pay for their mess

[@owliyz]

Or get to increase their pay when they can't pass an actual budget.
