Corruption and grifting run rampant

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 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.

One doesn’t have to dig very deep when it comes to finding something wrong with rump. FACT, rump sent his deputy attorney general alone to talk to convicted child sex trafficker jizz stain Maxwell in prison quicker than FEMA responded to the disaster in Texas. Proof positive that rump is $h!tt!ng his pants over his involvement as a child sexual predator.

Politico reports the Trump tariffs did not create doom as the nuts like chucky cried

By May 2025, U.S. tariff revenue hit a record $22.2 billion in May alone, up from $15.6 billion in April — nearly doubling from March to May .
By June, monthly collections had expanded further—$27 billion—bringing total year‑to‑date revenue to roughly $113 billion
Overall, projections estimate tariff revenue will reach $260–300 billion by the end of FY 2025 — the highest percentage of federal revenue from tariffs in decades

Hmmmm
Nazism is an anti-intellectual and atheoretical movement, emphasizing the will of the charismatic dictator as the sole source of inspiration of a people and a nation, as well as a vision of annihilation of all enemies of the Aryan Volk (Replace Volk with Dumpster-in-Chief.)
Guess that makes you a Nazi.

You heil Trump every chance you get while waving an upside-down American flag representing a small segment of the population - the rich. Trump's latest statement against Epstein had nothing to do with his crimes, but everything to do with him stealing young female employees from his hotel. He hasn't once said that Maxwell will never be pardoned by himself and has never condemned her for her crimes.

Also strange were the cameras that didn't work the day of Epstein's supposed suicide and the video that was shown was not of his cell block. Why Maxwell is being questioned after all this time begs the question: what is to be gained? Granted, she supplied children to hundreds of pedophiles to rape, which has gone unpunished much less investigated before her trial even began. But now she will do anything for a deal, regardless of her lack of credibility which will lead nowhere seeing how rich the perpetrators are. As usual, when money talks - justice is asleep.

There’s no point debating as long as you’re parroting anti-Trump media narratives designed to push socialism. When you’re ready to think independently, we can talk.
Getting all Your ideas from media that has consistently twisted facts to promote an agenda
As long as you treat their messaging as objective truth, theres no use.

Wrong JV, besides being a child sex trafficker Maxwell actually had sex with some of the victims, according to the victims. Don’t underplay the seriousness of the crime of facilitating rape. Hundreds of underaged girls telling the same story and we’re supposed to believe Maxwell and Trump? Both with long histories of lying. You’re right there’s no point debating when your source of information is FOX news. They don’t talk about the Epstein files much.

You truly believe everything FOX tells you. You are deep deep deep in the cult. If rump is so innocent why doesn’t he release the files and implicate some dems? He’s released every other file including JFK, RFK and MLK. He can also clear his own name.

Again, the problem with the truth is who controls the narrative. The press is 50/50 for or against DT and public opinion varies like the tides - it ebbs & flows towards him being the worst president in history to the best.
His base believes he has a strategy when it comes to tariffs, which will lead to his base justifying inflation to reduce the deficit - which we all will be paying for in the long run.
The starvation in Gaza is not America's problem. In Dump's mind, they deserve it because they supported HAMAS - the hell with the walking skeletons and dead children. So much for Christian values! USAID be damned!
Anyone who knows what division did to this country in 1860, knows the extent of what it's doing now and will do as long as this blowhard cows Congress and the courts to doing whatever he wants on a whim.
Domination of the narrative is his goal, but other countries will fight back with narratives of their own. HE represents this country and all its citizens and they see that as us against them - Canada especially! His tit for tat foreign policies - including trade- are leaving world leaders shaking their heads in disbelief, wondering the damage he will cause in their own countries.
It comes down to who you believe and for how long. Those negatively affected by his actions must eventually come to terms with many outcomes they never expected - including job loss and inflation. One failing of a democracy is that is allows individuals and parties to dominate and change the narrative daily to confuse and mislead the public. The plan from day one is diverting attention away from any negative consequences by waving the MAGA flag disguising the current political domination by pseudoconservatives and Trumptocrats.

When will this national nightmare be over? :(

President Donald Trump fired the commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics on Friday after a new jobs report showed a major slowdown of hiring in recent months. McEntarfer has served in the federal government for 20 years, including positions at the U.S. Census Bureau, the Executive Office of the President, and the Department of Treasury.

"The fresh data indicated a notable slowdown in hiring as Trump's tariffs took hold over recent months. Trump claimed the latest jobs report was "RIGGED in order to make the Republicans, and ME, look bad."
"To have a president who refuses to accept the numbers and then fire people because he doesn’t like the numbers...this is part of trying to bend the numbers to political will.”

Truth be told... what a minute the truth was told and Donnie wasn't having any of it!

re: "As for the “division of 1860” be honest. You’re not warning about national disunity. You’re trying to brand half the country as enemies of democracy because they disagree with you."
A country divided can not stand. Abraham Lincoln
Simple as that.

Trumpty-dumpty sat upon a wall,
Trumpty-Dumpty had a great fall;
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put Trumpty-dumpty together again.

His time is coming when firing everyone that doesn't agree with him will eventually bite him in the a**. Loyalty should only go so far when it comes to statistics and as I've been saying - details matter!
