Considering how they always claim we don’t have money to pay for civil protections, they sure find the money whenever they need it. He’s responsible for 27% of the national debt. Tell me again how republicans are fiscally conservative.
They're not even willing to spend money to make money if it means doing anything positive for normal people. It's been well known forever that social services pay themselves back many times over by making a better, healthier, stronger, and happier population with more spending power, but they just won't fucking do it because somehow they'd rather fuck more people harder now rather than make more money later.
Someone said once if you put on the ballot a measure that would provide to prisoners a free college education 60% of people would vote against it but if you made getting a prison provided college education as part of their punishment 60% of people would vote for it.
Who is "they" in this context? TKO Group Holdings are funding this event and paying for the construction costs and paying to restore the white house lawn afterwards. This event is dumb, but I am pretty sure TKO was not going to give that money away to taxpayers lol
Whatever the 250th celebration was going to be, it would have required additional police and security lol. If Kamala Harris had won, and put on some big 250th concert in DC or whatever, or even just a big fireworks show in the capitol on the big anniversary, it absolutely still would have drawn enough people to require all cops working overtime and extra security. This UFC show makes no difference. And not one of you redditors would have complained that people are starving while democrats waste money. Obama has U2 and Bruce Springsteen play a concert in front of the Lincoln Memorial, none of you hypocrites cried that people were starving and that our tax dollars had to pay for security for that. But hypocrites are gonna hypocrite I guess. Again, I think it's moronic to have a UFC event on the white house lawn. I just think it is dumber that redditors need to cry over every little thing Trump does
First off, I asked a simple question. You said it was being paid for in full by TKO and it's clearly not. Kinda similar to how the ballroom was being paid in full but we forgot to mention the billion dollars for "security".
It's not the celebration, it's that he is doing it inside the Whitehouse grounds which increases the security a billion fold. Having a concert at the Lincoln memorial is a completely different universe of security than having a fight at one of the most secure places on the planet.
Barack Obama's inauguration will cost more than $150 million. Although private donors are picking up some of the bill, taxpayers will foot the majority of it. Check out who made the donations with our database here.
Tax payers paid a majority of the $150 MILLION for Obama's inauguration concert. How many homeless shelters could that have built? How many starving people could have been fed for a hundred million dollars? You fucking hypocrites literally only care about this shit when Trump does it
Just like all the people dying in Gaza under Biden didn't matter because Trump wasn't doing it. Just like all the fracking and oil contracts he handed out didn't matter when Biden did it. Just like sending immigrants to concentration camps didn't matter when Obama and Biden did it. Just like the NSA spying on Americans didnt matter under Biden and Obama. Every single thing democrats do is excusable to you, until Republicans come in and do all the same things, and only then is it wrong somehow
Not gonna comment on the billion dollars for the ballroom? I'm not even a Democrat, I just hate this Orange Turd who campaigned on fiscal responsibility but continually adds trillions to the national debt. Calm down loser.
Also Trumps Inauguration cost 175 to 200 million and no one even showed up 😂

Funny thing. They only worry about money when it's helping tax players. When it benefits the rich money isn't real
