Donald Trump's Delusions: Truth Social Meltdown on LA Safety and Tax Bill

Trump's Claims About Los Angeles

• 🤥 Donald Trump posted on Truth Social with acute delusions, making untrue claims about Los Angeles.
• 🚨 He asserted that Los Angeles would have been a "crime scene" without the deployment of National Guard and Marines, and that Governor Gavin Newsom had lost control.
• 🔍 The truth is that while 700 Marines and thousands of National Guard troops were deployed during protests, there is no evidence L.A. was on the brink of widespread violence without them.
• 🚫 Mayor Karen Bass and Governor Newsom did not request the deployment, and the protests were largely peaceful and contained to a few blocks.

Analysis of Trump's Tax Bill Claims

• 💰 Trump also boasted about a "great big, beautiful bill" that would grow the economy and cut expenses by $1.6 trillion.
• 📉 However, this claim is misleading as it ignores the significant revenue loss from the tax cuts themselves.
• 📊 Independent analyses from CBO, PolitiFact, and Penn Wharton estimate the tax cuts will increase the deficit by $3 to $4 trillion.
• 🗣️ Trump's argument is compared to claiming household savings by cutting grocery spending while ignoring the increased cost of eating out.
• ⚠️ Several Republicans, including Congressman Thomas Massey and Senators Rand Paul and Ron Johnson, have acknowledged the need to account for increased debt and spending.

• 🎭 Trump is accused of lying to his followers on Truth Social by presenting fabricated narratives about both L.A. safety and the tax bill's financial impact.
