And to think for fear of conflict of interest Jimmy Carter was forced to sell his peanut farm.

What’s the asking price for the White House? It’s most certainly for sale!

It is a dark time in America led by a narcissistic insincere blowhard that half the voters still believe. Granted, his executive orders won't be felt for months, some for years, but they will come home to roost starting with tariffs on our favorite trading partners and allies. I wouldn't be surprised if new trading BLOCs get formed to counter our orange president's pressures forcing them to bow to him. This time our TACO president will most likely not reverse those tariffs this time (that will accomplish nothing positive BTW) except to begin a rise in inflation.

He will always have an excuse for every negative outcome caused by him as well as giving allies second thoughts about supporting us militarily in wars of his making. I hate watching TV commentaries and experts predicting anything because anti-Trump bias is built into all criticisms and nothing is for sure. I would like to know for certain that the GOP majority is wiped out in the midterms, but will it? If the courts refuse to or can't control him, Congress must because of his disregard for checks-and-balances democracy and love of king-like autocracy by decree. Without the other two powers, his oligarchy is ensured and many more individuals, domestically and internationally, will suffer.

I hope other nations don't believe he represents all Americans. HE DOESN'T BY A LONG SHOT!
Very depressing.

JV, it's not about crying and losing, people are well over the election results, this is about day to day running of our country. Let me ask you a question, please answer it instead of avoiding it. Very recently, as in a month or so ago, Trump was pro-Putin/Russia and anti- Zelensky/Ukraine. Now Trump is all over Putin and is announcing further weapons support for Ukraine, since this is exactly what Biden was doing are you still backing Trump on this issue?

No I don’t like it one bit. However

Trump’s stance is strategic not pledging openended aid like Biden. He’s using aid as a tool to force peace not prolong war.
Trump frames aid as leverage not obligation. He has said he’d end the war quickly and is working to do so
I never heard Biden say he would end the war at all
In fact he ran away from questions from the press

Biden’s administration has provided multiple years of money and weapons entangled with NATO and EU politics.
Trump is more aggressive and simplified with clear consequences
Biden’s support has been a slow drip of democrat bureaucracy Trump’s is more straight and demands results
Even now, Trump isn’t promising long term funding for Ukraine. He’s still focused on ending the war not sustaining it indefinitely. He’s made it clear that he doesn’t want endless spending or NATO mission creep.
Biden, on the other hand, has never outlined an exit strategy and has tied U.S. credibility to “as long as it takes” support.

Trump was tough on Putin in the first term
Trump told Putin that if he invaded Ukraine during his presidency, Moscow would be ashes
Funny. Putin waited for you dummies to vote in Biden

rump said he would end that war in his first day in office, we all know how that’s going.

rump has never ever been tough on his man crush Putin. Why is he giving Putin 50 days to get his act together? Sounds like an opportunity for rump to taco out once again.

No opinions on the trumpstein file fiasco or the FEMA debacle in Texas? I know, those are hard topics for magats to argue.
