President Joe Biden touted his historic student loan forgiveness order despite significantly scaling it back just two days earlier — and bashed Republicans who opposed it.

Biden called the cancellations a “game changer” before slamming members of the GOP during remarks at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation Phoenix Awards.

Biden is demented, corrupt and a fraud. He is so vile that he used his own addicted, diseased son as his bagman. His controlling cabal does all it can to destroy the American nation.

Essential facts despite the collusion of the MSM, must be repeated constantly to educate the American people.

It’s not forgiveness. It’s forcing us to pay off someone else’s debt, and therefore biden’s action is illegal. As in crime.

Are they going to keep forgiving debt for each round of future loans as well? Doesn’t that turn it into a grant program not a loan program?

Is this like buying votes?? Ya think?? Soon they’ll realize this is paying off white folks...and that won’t stand. I expect a round of scholarships based on income. The old Biden...come one...come all.

So if one can afford something, it’s okay to break the law?

“game changer”

It is that. It teaches a whole generation that contracts are meaningless, that honoring your commitments is for suckers. The millennia-old era of "Your Word is Your Sacred Bond" is over. It tells millions of young people that there's no point following the law.

This will bode very poorly for the moral future of the country. It's just one more example of the moral rot that has taken deep root in the country. All thanks to liberals and Democrats.

"I expect a round of scholarships based on income skin color, excepting white/pink."

A more likely scenario.

Indeed. He or they saw too much negative feedback and have thus scrapped it. For the time being....

As a famous joke goes, “what you mean WE kimosabi?”. Fjb can afford it, what with his “10% for the big guy” cut of his illicit profits. But the rest of us? One day joe will face THE big guy and I’m pretty sure there aren’t going to be ANY excuses he can hide behind that will fly. Just sayin’.

It’s not a question of whether we can afford it or not, (we can’t). It’s a question of ethics, of right or wrong. It’s wrong to make someone pay for someone else’s debt. It’s an even bigger wrong using that as a way to buy votes, and that’s all this is.

Dementia Joe and who “can afford” to hand out tax payer money to a bunch of far left liberals who “studied” gender studies at the university?
Joe Stolen has never done a honest day's work in his entire life, having stayed in the US Senate since he was 30 and done nothing.

No problem “affording” debts which we have no ability of intention of repaying.

On the other hand, our great grandchildren may have an issue there.
