Before the election Trump and Musk were bragging about the wonderful economy Melei created in Argentina he was on the stage with Musk wielding a chain saw signifying the cutting of government jobs and programs for the needy, of course it wasn't true since the poverty rate jumped from 25% to 57%. But the R. never lets the truth get in their way.

"Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said this week that if New York City needed a federal bailout under the leadership of the mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, it would be rebuffed by the Trump administration with two words.

'Drop dead,'”

If the shoe is on the other foot, and Uncle Sam needs help from NYC, I suspect the two words will be, "Fuck off."
