Is this a real question?
Yes it is a real question. It goes to this post.

As you know ”Infaltion” is simply artificially injecting more currency into circulation to pay for government spending…When you do this, it diminishes the value of each dollar currently in circulation…This causes the price of everything to increase, because each dollar is now worth less than it was before…
So, while you can’t, technically, take currency out of circulation, cutting spending and giving tax cuts across the board will allow business to grow to a point where it will seem like the high prices aren’t as bad anymore- almost like the economy is catching up to the inflation…
I don’t pretend to be an economist, but a tax break to everyone who pays taxes, and cutting government spending, is always a good start to getting the economy back on track…
Unfortunately, politicians promise the world in order to get votes, so they are afraid to do it…
But Trump’s policy of “no tax on tips” is a good start…👍
I would like to see a 5% reduction in government spending across the board…
The government is not printing money to cover the deficit. They are issuing bonds, i.e. borrowing money. That does not change the amount of currency in circulation since the money the government is borrowing is coming out of the pockets of the lenders. People who make this claim simply don't know what they are talking about.
If the government was printing money to pay for the deficit, there would be no debt.

The theme of Swift's music from what I've heard is for teenage girls and young women that have trouble keeping up a relationship with a man. A theme that appeals to liberal women. What's amusing is they never consider they're the problem.
Otherwise, in the entertainment business expressing anything positive about Trump is forbidden. Those involved don't recognize the 1st Amendment right to speech and deviating from the acceptable dogma is punishable. Do so at your own peril. You'll be excluded from the social scene, parties, events, hi-paying gigs, awards, all of it. There's an old saying that goes something like Its hard to get a person to believe something when their livelihood depends on not believing it. It still applies.
I remember what somebody said about Springsteen. He's outwardly anti-Trump but if you listen to his songs such as those on Darkness On The Edge of Town or Born in the USA. its certain all the characters in those songs would be voting for Trump. I find that paradox interesting that a guy that's made a fortune telling stories about populist type people is now willing to piss all the real-life versions of those characters. Its go along to get along.
Springsteen didn't fall for the con.

If the government it printing money to pay for the deficit (the difference between spending and income) then why do we have a national debt and payments on the national debt?

How does debt cause inflation? Debt doesn't create more money.

We just barrow it? right?
What's our current payment on the interest on the debt? 50 billion a month? A trillion a month? or am I stuck with 2022 numbers? Its been spiking since All the federal stimulus hit the board rooms.
You didn't answer my question. Do you believe that the government is printing money to pay for the difference between its expenses and its income?

You are an odd person who literally argued that $2 billion in damage and 100s of murders is fine but breaking a few windows and zero murders is where you draw the line. I will never understand you truly but then again I have actual moral standards not simply a political moron
Where did I say "$2 billion in damage and 100s of murders is fine"? I don't even know what you are talking about.

In the second one, why was Donald so surprised? Because she allowed physical contact or that she showed up at the RNC at all?

That's because people realize that "the other side" is non-protestors. And what he said was true. No one except for protestors died that day.
So its okay to injure the police. Everything is fine and dandy as long as you don't kill them.
Here I thought the Republicans were the party of law and order.

I don't have the individual power to remove anyone's rights, bud. If a state deems abortion unlawful, then so be it.
Captain Obvious - I never implied that you had the power to remove anyone's rights. The question is, do you support the removal of those rights, which you do. You are just trying to weasel your way out of stating an unpopular position.

They are conditioned to nurse grievances. If there aren't real grievances, they make them up. So to them, wrongs weren't that the story was made up and schools and other events in Springfield were canceled because of the unwanted attention those lies focused on Springfield. No, the grievance is that right wingers were suspected for the bomb threats that never would have happened if not for the Vance/Trump lies.
