      Mr Money Printer, made everything impossibly expensive. He worked for boomers who get to sell their assets at all time highs. This is the peak folks

      +218% return by adding 6 trillion to the feds balance sheet during his term, have inflation be the highest in 40 years under his term, have the dollar lose 30% of its purchasing power under his term, all in a matter of 8 years.

      Guy is a fucking loser, good riddance.

      His shirts never wrinkle. In museums, he is allowed to touch the art. His signature wins Pulitzers. He is, the most interesting man in the world.
