US Moody rating has been downgraded to negative from stable.

Republicans are monkeying around with unclean budget proposals, as pointed out by the Moodys statement, but you're blaming Biden. Right..

The ratings agency said in a statement that "continued political polarization" in Congress raises the risk that lawmakers will not be able to reach consensus on a fiscal plan to slow the decline in debt affordability."


"Any type of significant policy response that we might be able to see to this declining fiscal strength probably wouldn't happen until 2025 because of the reality of the political calendar next year," William Foster, a senior vice president at Moody's, told Reuters in an interview.

So Democrats are to blame for the 8% fixed rate mortgages, record credit card debt, record inflation, record fuel prices and two new wars?

I'm just using the playbook from 2019-2021 when Trump was president, Senate was republican, but House was Democrats and at the end of the day everything was still Trumps fault.

You would blame the lighter and the gasoline. Because you're stupid.
