    Don’t worry, they’re not gonna touch the boomers benefits, just everyone else’s. I know this, because the political genius we all know as “Aunt Linda” told me so.

    When pressed for a source, Aunt Linda will loftily declare “he wouldn’t hurt his base.”

    So, fuck off with this weak ass propaganda. Aunt Linda has spoken.

      It is astounding – simply astounding – that a guy who flies around airing grievances like he’s trying to get all the timezones for Festivus yet somehow running 90 minutes each time … was elected.

      He didn’t care about you last time; this time, he cares more about Panama, Greenland and the Gaza Strip (I’m not listing Canada here, because that’s simply not going to happen, eh?) than you. Holy fuck, are these people fools. We saw the first tax package. Cool. Standard deduction went up.

      We’re seriously thinking this dude will financially save the working class with what I presume will be another marginal increase in the standard deduction while drastically lowering rates for people an order of magnitude out of my bracket? And tariffs?

      I have words, but I’ll be civil.
