    While he called ICE’s Operation Metro Surge in Minnesota an “unmitigated disaster,” Madel also said he believes President Donald Trump deserves credit for many things, such as brokering a ceasefire in Gaza, getting NATO countries to increase their defense spending and proposing a 10% cap on credit card interest.

    Just as nuts as the rest of them.

      The first two things on that list are crazy in their own uniquely Republican way but the credit card thing is just bizarre. Both in comparison to the others and at face value. You want to give him a pass because he proposed something that hasn’t happened?

        And my suspicion on the credit card thing is that he knows the average household is broke and wants to make living on credit more appealing. Cleverly this gets the CC companies to cover the deficit and keeps dirt off of easier to obtain stats. That jackal doesn’t have an altruistic bone in his body. If I were drowning, I wouldn’t accept a life saver from him under suspicion of ulterior motives.

          I agree with what you’re saying I just think it’s odd, even by GOP standards, to try and give Trump a pass on something he did by appealing to something he has only talked about doing.

          There already was interest caps. I don’t know what it was before but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was lower than 10%.
