Trump 47

This is going to backfire on the Trump administration massively. We are lucky fascism 2.0 is so dumb and nonsensical IMO.


I wish I shared your confidence.

While this administration often seems like bumbling idiots when it comes to governing, they’ve proven highly skilled at three things:
  1. Spreading misinformation and convincing many to believe it.
  2. Exploiting ethical rules by behaving unethically—rules never anticipated such disregard because voters were expected to reject those candidates.
  3. Claiming any unfavorable election was fraudulent.
Given that, I’m hopeful about the midterms—but not entirely trusting.
 
President Donald Trump went on a stunning riff when confronted with the declaration — by Chief Justice John Roberts — that “tariffs are taxes,” admitting Americans “pay something” but claiming they benefit by not having to fight in wars.

 
Reporter: Trump has acknowledged that his party is at least partially blamed for the shutdown. Is it time for him to convene congressional leadership to try to reach a deal?

Bessent: No. What are we negotiating on?

Reporter: They're asking for ACA subsidies

 
Top Trump econ advisor: I think that Secretary Bessent wisely said we're starting to see pockets of the economy that look like might be in a recession

Ill be shocked if they admit it.
 
Schumer outlines Democrat offer to reopen government and extend ACA subsidies
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer took to the Senate floor to outline Democrats' new proposal to end the shutdown.

"I've spoken with my caucus, and Democrats are offering a very simple compromise," Schumer said. "Democrats are ready to clear the way to quickly pass a government funding bill that includes health care affordability. Leader Thune just needs to add a clean, one-year extension of the ACA tax credits to the CR so that we can immediately address rising health care costs."

"Now, the ball is in the Republicans' court. We need Republicans to just say yes," he said.

 
Pretty sure the only true thing on this list is the eggs


The Wal Mart special is 25% cheaper than last year (but you get less stuff). Besides Thanksgiving meal prep is a poor indicator of grocery inflation. A bunch of it is a loss leader to get people in the store. For example Hy Vee gives you a turkey when you buy a ham and has been doing it for years. So technically the price of my Thanksgiving turkey hasn't gone up in a decade but that doesn't mean that the can of tuna or loaf of bread I pick up as well because Im there hasn't doubled since COVID.

Eggs are cheaper. So hes bragging about avian influenza running its course?

Gas is getting cheaper but that's normal after the driving season with no unsettling disruptions in the industry. So if Trump wants to take credit for people driving less after everyone has taken summer vacations and school is in session then cool beans I guess. Is he gonna say its Bidens fault when we see a jump in prices right before memorial day?

As far as inflation, good luck convincing people that one is true. Go buy a pound of hamburger and let me know what you think.
 
Hegseth: "We are not building for peacetime. We are pivoting the Pentagon and our industrial base to a wartime footing. Building for victory should our adversaries FAFO."

Pete Hegseth “this is a 1939 moment”


Oh you know 1939 when the Nazi’s expanded their control and invaded Poland

Q: The Walmart Thanksgiving meal is cheaper, but it also contains less--

TRUMP: Well I haven't heard that. Who are you with?

Q: I'm with NBC News, sir

TRUMP: Fake news. You're fake news.

orban is a LITERAL dictator

Trump: "I stick up for Viktor Orban. Not a lot of people do because in many cases they're jealous. They wish they did what he did. They would have no problems if they did what he did."
