They're moving towards it, but you're right. I normally don't post stuff like this, but the idea got in his head somehow. He's fucked up our economy so bad, that this even crossing his mind is kind of bizarre. He's probably shaking someone down with this.
He’s probably shaking someone down with this.
He's been using the government to attack the elites who support Democrats in order to weaken them politically while using the power of the government to enrich the elites who support him.
Financial institutions have primarily supported Democrat candidates and the 'buy up all of the homes and rent them at inflated prices due to the supply shortage that we've created' racket is one of their most profitable projects.
I agree that this should be done, but Trump is doing it for political power. He can appease the working people by hurting the elites of the other party so it's a simple choice. This is also why every tech company has fallen to their knees the moment Trump was elected, he was talking about revoking Section 230 which would make companies that host user-generated content (essentially every app/site) directly liable for the content posted on their services. This would kill every social media website overnight as, otherwise, Facebook would be directly responsible when its users posted illegal material.
Trump has also used the FCC to attack Left-leaning networks and he's used the illegal firings and defundings as a way to kill public radio which is viewed as being part of the Left.
For every $1 you save in housing costs, you'll lose $10 or a family member from Trump using the military to steal the largest oil reserves on Earth for himself (and the friendly oligarchs).
I'll take it. After all of the harm and grifting he's done to this country, I'll take this one win.
You aren't taking anything until it actually happens.
Compare things Donald Trump says he will do to things he actually gets done. Especially when it involves actually helping Americans.
This didn't get passed. It's just something he said.
There’s a catch to it. Something about it is actually the exact opposite of what would be good.
It's never, ever going to happen.
they should not be able to buy anything that is not an apartment building or hotel or such. When foreclosure puts it in a companies hands they should have to sell to individuals.
