14. Mike Johnson is believing his own fantasy.

The Orange Pig inherited an economy that was the envy of the world with some inflation problems that were already on their way down. Wages are now stagnant, we are losing jobs and prices are through the roof. Not to forget that the social safety net is being devastated and millions are without health insurance. And government corruption is rampant.

That these lying bastards in the Trump cabal don't deserve one minute of serious consideration on anything they say.
