This follows the downgrade from the other major credit agencies which occurred in 2011 and 2023 respectively.
These were during Democrat administrations. I'm sure you totally cared when that happened during the Obama and Biden administrations. Can you point to the posts where you called this out and sounded the alarm?
Historically, the U.S. maintained a perfect credit rating from all three agencies for decades, reflecting the country's economic strength and political stability. That changed in 2011 when S&P downgraded the U.S. from AAA to AA+ following a contentious debt ceiling standoff. Fitch followed suit in 2023, citing fiscal deterioration and repeated political brinkmanship. Moody's had been the last to maintain a stable AAA rating.

Republicans in the age of Trump are on a path toward failing to address the country’s fiscal problems because they are not being honest with themselves about what meaningful fiscal reform would need to involve, what budget policy they are in fact pursuing now, and just how little those two have to do with each other.
Ignoring the fiscal challenges our government faces is bad enough. But today’s GOP is pretending to address them while actually making them worse.

... but you are free of morals and reason.
You can believe what you want to believe.
You can scapegoat and be as sadistic as you want.
And enjoy the spectacle.

... at least the Germans did this part, behind closed doors.
But the resistance after the 2nd world, made a huge spectacle of the sadistic retaliations, ... a lof them weren't even justifed.
Just too please the crowd and sacrifice the scapegoats for the sins of the entire community.

Franco did it too when he was a leader in the army, and his men loved him for it.

Tariff terrorism? Sounds like a Bond villain with a clipboard and a nasty spreadsheet! It's like economic waterboarding, but with Excel and passive-aggressive trade reps!
Tariff terrorism- where the only thing exploding is the cost of a decent French brie!

@FloorGenAdm Moody's is a very business oriented conservative financial services and risk assessment agency. They've been doing that job for over 100 years.

@ElwoodBlues Well I don't wanna get sued by Moody's for saying stuff. 🤐

S&P Global and Fitch Ratings had downgraded the USA's credit rating well below triple-A status years ago, simply because the writing was on the wall as far back as 2008, but the USA was doing nothing about repaying it's outstanding National Debt load while choosing instead to increase it.
Moody's was the very last credit ratings organization to finally admit the truth about the US economy, which simply means that Moody's decision to downgrade the US yesterday has been presented to us about 17 years late.

@Patriot96 I agree! This is your best. You don't want change! The border proves you live the best lives you can & shorter and harder than Chinese lives. You are doing the best YOU can. And socialism isn't for YOU. LolZ. Gahead!!! The lines are long at all borders, providing you the perfect excuse.

First of all MarmeeMarch, you are not an American nor do you live in the USA, despite what your profile states otherwise. You know this and I know this.
Secondly and for the record, the US military has lost every war it started in the last 113 years, the most recent events being the Vietnam War which the US lost hands down, followed by the Afghanistan War which the US also lost.
In both of those cases the US military retreated from battle after being in both places for over 15 years, but only retreating after coming to terms with America's reality that it sucks at jungle warfare and sucks at mountain warfare, in addition to the fact that despite the sophisticated hardware available to the US military, their tactical skills are poor to mediocre in almost all conflicts.
Of all the wars the US didn't start but got it's nose heavily invested in for America's own personal gain, the US military lost 61% of those conflicts despite your perceived "military strength" you seem to think the US military knows how to effectively employ. Your perception of US military strength couldn't be further from the truth.
Please stop pretending to be an American because you are not one of them.
