End the Fed!

[@Upinthesky345]

Does anyone know that Trump did not take a presidential pay the entire 4 years in office?

[@mhuffman6282]

Yes I do know he allotted it to different charities and into different places in government

[@Livvvid]

He is also the first president to have his net worth DECLINE since being in office...

[@SwampFox11]

So I guess the Federal Government feels that printing more money that this country does not have is going to revive America's economy?

[@markcrimi]

Paid very handsomely to lie. What a job.

[@SandyCampbellHemet]

Seems like a very nice man, but I believe nothing from his nicely delivered report I guess people with no car, no home, no food can run the tape of his kind voice while sleeping in the park and going through the dumpsters for food.

[@Sin-uz1bp]

Wow, was it too hard to clip out the first 15 minutes where he’s not speaking?

[@PokeJoe13]

Fired jerome powell

[@brendashumaker874]

Lie,spend more money,make more money and again we the tax payers pay more money,and work for less money😢 slavery😢

[@SwampFox11]

Federal interest cuts only mean that the American people will be paying more. Paying more at the grocery store. Paying more at the fuel pump. Paying more for mortgages.

[@TrampConnoisseur]

If rates aren’t cut firms will be more reluctant to borrowing to expand. Business contractions could lead to decreased wages, unemployment, and could contribute to a recession as consumers begin to stop buying. Evidently the economists in the fed believe unlike you, that inflation is returning to a normal level. My stocks are happy today

[@SwampFox11]

@@TrampConnoisseur Have you ever owned a small business? Do you understand the impact of taxing Unrealized capital gains would mean? Do you realize the taxing of capital gains on top of taxing Unrealized capital gains would mean? Maybe you don't know what you are talking about? You have no experience in basic economics.

[@SwampFox11]

@@TrampConnoisseur Do you really think the current Administration has an effect on the stock market worldwide? The Asian market. You really are not an investor. You're not a business owner.

[@SwampFox11]

@@TrampConnoisseur So what do you consider a normal inflation rate? What percentage?

[@TrampConnoisseur]

@@SwampFox11 no I don’t believe that. Where did I say I believed that. I don’t need validation on my investments from an old man on the internet but thanks for your input Mr. Worldwide

[@oberon1007]

So, did Powell see his shadow?

Existe uma grande e enorme preocupação com a grande dívida interna do governo dos Estados Unidos da América. É preciso que o governo faça algo sobre tudo isso

[@SwampFox11]

No kidding. So what do you think is the solution to this outrageous spending that the country cannot afford any longer? That the American citizens cannot afford any longer. How it affects our children. Our grandchildren. Our great-great-grandchildren. A smaller government is the answer. Energy Independence is the way to America's future through drilling. Not clean energy. So what would be your solution to America's financial dilemma?

[@abgzulkifli]

I plan everything,

[@sheenahlee]

Blah blah blah

[@abgzulkifli]

I said no waited do it now

[@郑权明-t5g]

我非常感谢您们的支持和警告‼️

[@aminXlocale]

You serious?

[@jaredhenderson4909]

Why is an insurrectionist/traitor receiving tax funded security details???

[@SwampFox11]

So you cannot help yourself? You cannot turn down the rhetoric? It sounds like you're blaming Donald J. Trump for all the Financial woes that America is experiencing right now. The burden that is going to be placed upon our children. Our grandchildren. Our great-grandchildren. So what is your solution to all of this? How do you think America is going to reduce the 35 trillion dollars that we are in debt with China right now? The credit card debt that America is dealing with right now. That's almost 2 trillion dollars. That affects a lot of families. That effects a lot of children. So what do you think is the solution to America's Financial demise?

[@DanielHoerle-ww9so]

There was no insurrection, Cops let people in, a friend of mine was at the capitol on Jan. 6th. He witnessed the whole thing MSM lied. As for trump being a traitor what traitorius act did he commit ?

[@Upinthesky345]

Do you know that Trump did not take a presidential pay the whole 4 years in office.?

[@Upinthesky345]

Do you know that Trump did not take a presidential pay the entire 4 years in office?

I want my tax payer dollars to go towards protecting Trump!
