[stevep]

Wow of course it's someone else's fault! Repeated, unforced errors of policy, behaviour, judgement and character.

[whipsplash]

At least he had the class to do what trump wouldn't do. And at least his party had the spine to push him out unlike trump's party.

[Vito_]

See Republicans his own party didn’t want him they saved the party than destroy it

The wisest thing that be on everyone’s mind currently is investing in different streams of income that doesn’t depend on the govt. especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in Gold, silver and digital currencies(BTC, ETH….)
