Bankruptcy will lead Rudy to flip. Sadly, it will mean nothing. The US descent to chaos accelerates.

The most patriotic tend to pay the least amount of taxes, eh?

Saw a clip where Jon Stewart asked some politician on the right why it was revered for someone like Trump to pay no taxes or as minimal taxes as possible because they took advantage of the tax loopholes but a lower class person using the system to their benefit to get things like food stamps or take unemployment insurance with somehow weakness. Both of them are just using the system as built to their benefit was the argument.

Because one of them needs it to survive and the other is just grifting, is my guess.

Trump is the biggest, most huge, patriot. People have told him his patriot is the hugest and bestest

Don't ask what your country can do for you... just take it without asking.
