The Blame Game: the Guilty Always Blame the Innocent

There is no gentle or kind way to offer you the truth: our government is fucked up, and I’m afraid many of the problems are irreparable. Musk and Trump have no understanding about how the American economy functions.

If we move right to the core of the problem, the one group to blame for the destruction of America is the mainstream media. The once respected Fourth Estate has failed its purpose. Every journalist appearing on the boob tube is a coward and a liar by omission. Not a single “news service” is doing the right thing, calling Musk and Trump what they are: Nazis. Their fascist agenda is contained in Project 2025. Trump lied, claiming that he knew nothing about it although every word, every idea, comes from his speeches at his infamous hate rallies. It is an undeniable fact that Trump nor Musk know absolutely nothing about economics at any level.

Right-wing extremists exist because millions of American voters chose ignorance and believe their lies.

For example: when the stock market was booming in 2024, Trump and his stooges claimed that it was because they knew he would be reelected. Now that it is crashing, it’s “Biden’s fault.” Trump and his morons falsely claim that they were left with the worst economy in history. This is humorous because every legitimate economist reported that Biden’s economy was the best since Clinton’s in the late 1900’s. There was no “inflation,” it was in fact “Greedflation.” These same economists claim that Trump and Musk’s actions will cause another huge recession very soon. Only Trump could go from worst in history to even worse.

By the way, ask Trump what he is doing about “inflation.” Day one is long past.

If your mistake is not corrected very soon, the damage will be irreparable. Another “Great Depression” is very possible.
