Yes, we can all quote from Wikipedia BingB... we all know what TARP is. |

Then why did you call it a "loan" and talk about it being forgiven by Obama?

Because it was. It was expected that these banks would be required to buy back these assets, as many of them did. It was leveraged solely for the intent on preventing a run on the banks. The equities that weren't were merged into groups like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mack.

More cards have been turned up.
There is now audio and video of the AZGOP chairman offering a bribe to Kari Lake on behalf of "very powerful people" to get her to drop out. She turned down very good money, to do the right thing.
I have been telling you. I don't care what you believe. It is not my job to lead you to the water. You will not drink, anyway. Why should you when KoolAid tastes so sweet?
We ain't done yet.

Listen to the recording, unless you are afraid you might learn the truth about how politics is done.
On second thought, grab some Bud Light, download some Taylor Swift .MP3's and crawl back under your blanket.

The Republican Party offered her a bribe (not actually a bribe per se on behalf of her not being an elected official, but the colloquial use) because she’s another extreme MAGA candidate that is poison for the party. It’s hardly surprising, but yes, it’s definitely a revealing recording. My question would be if the people “back east” asking for this are GOP strategists working for the Party or other Republican senators.

This is very short-sighted, and it's definitely not other politicians. The people who lobby and manipulate the Republican party are the exact same people who manipulate the Democrat party. In Russia, they are called "oligarchs."

Of course the Republican want lake to drop out. She is still trying to pass off that lie that no one believes any more about the election being stolen.

First of all there was not requirement that any of these banks buy back any of these assets.
But if they did then that means Obama did not "forgive" any thing.
Your claim that TARP was a loan and Obama forgave it just is not true.

If I remember the recording correctly, the people pressing the GOP head asked "Are there any companies out there who can hire her?" That doesn't sound like an oligarch to me, it sounds like a party strategist, which is why I assumed the above.
But certainly, if you have more info than what's in the recording, that would definitely change the theory.[This message has been edited by theBDub (edited 01-24-2024).]
