McConnell: Biden student loan forgiveness a ‘wildly unfair redistribution’ of wealth
The Hill ^ | 08/24/2022 | JARED GANS

Posted on 08/24/2022 12:07:55 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) criticized President Biden’s decision to cancel $10,000 of student loan debt for borrowers making less than $125,000 annually, calling it a “wildly unfair redistribution” of wealth in favor of higher-earning Americans.

McConnell said in a statement on Twitter on Wednesday that the move is a “slap in the face” to those in the workforce who made sacrifices to pay off their debt, as well as those who made different career choices to avoid student debt.

Do something to stop this crap instead of running your mouth after complaining about it.

Exactly. So, what is the GOP going to do about it?

The POTUS, of any party, does not have the power to ‘cancel debt’, only CONGRESS.

EVEN NANCY PELOSI AGREES....................

Occasionally Mitch says something worthwhile. It’s like millions of monkeys tapping on keyboards will eventually come up with Shakespearean verses.

Says the assclown that has sent 60 Billion plus to Ukraine and paid for the criminal FBI to get a new multibillion dollar HQ building and never bothered to defund Fauci’s Mengele lab.

But money to US citizens and McConnell swings into action. He did the same thing a week before the Georgia Senate vote and raced in to cut Trump’s covid stimulus checks in half.

This is the correct take, regardless of Mitches stance on other issues, it is simply discrimination vote buying of those who didn’t contribute or don’t contribute. What about those who paid back loans? Its unfair to them.

Hey, Mitch... how many times did you have to kiss Schumer’s ass before he allowed you to say that?

You’d rather have the commie who lived off Mommy and Daddy most of his life? The commie who wants criminals back on the street before their victims are out of the hospital?

Are you smoking wacky week?

Brandon’s Golden Semi-jubilee!

He essentially bought 15% or so of the population a new car—or at least a good used one.

More people were left out than benefitted.
This could assure the Republican’s sweep mid terms!
