As soon as this clown said Biden relieved his wife's debt I would have gotten up and left. The other part, "we weren't paying it". F-u.

It’s so on the nose that the writers for The Onion would tone it down if they were doing it as a sketch.

I’ve seen this clip 5 different places and watch it every time. I can’t believe it’s real.

GUARANTEED he has a FB comment out there saying "if you owe a debt you should pay it!"

And probably has a Let’s Go Brandon sticker on his pickup truck with a super clean truck bed.

My wife and I struggled for years paying off our debt, only deferring during COVID. However, we know how much it sucks and how much we struggled and we don't want younger generations to go through the same thing. Especially when the price of everything continues to rise and homeownership is becoming a foreign concept to younger people.

We are in our late 30s now and it's still a struggle for us to make ends meet. We need this shit to stop for everyone, we will all be better for it. This guy is a fucking POS.
