As you’d expect, a privileged douchebag who has been handed everything since he was born is absolutely apoplectic that President Joe Biden announced today that he would be forgiving up to $20,000 in student loan debt for millions of Americans.
The plan, according to The Washington Post, was a long time in coming but could make a dramatic difference:
More than 40 million Americans could see their student loan debt reduced — and in many cases eliminated — under the long-awaited forgiveness plan President Joe Biden announced Wednesday, a historic but politically divisive move in the run-up to the midterm elections.
Fulfilling a campaign promise, Biden is erasing $10,000 in federal student loan debt for those with incomes below $125,000 a year, or households that earn less than $250,000. He’s canceling an additional $10,000 for those who received federal Pell Grants to attend college.
That led Donald Trump Jr. to fire off two angry tweets:
Wow! Just wow.
How ironic is it that someone who had his education paid for by his daddy and has never actually worked a day in his life is complaining about people with less getting a break from the crippling load of debt they’re carrying because they wanted to better themselves?
Oh, and the line about “gender study degrees” is just complete bullshit, straight out of the talking points that are reiterated night after night on Fox News and Newsmax, both of which are little more than GOP propaganda networks. It’s red meat for the extreme right-wing, which thinks that if you don’t major in business or finance, you’re wasting your life.
Fortunately, Junior got a heavy dose of opprobrium from Twitter users who reminded him that he should have sat out this particular debate.
