This is the Pacific War with Japan in reverse

[M14 Shooter]

Because no one wants to attack us, we need carriers to take our game on the road.

Since the days of Teddy Roosevelt and the Great White Fleet, the USN has been a means to project force in the name of the National Interest.
So...?

 

[elektra]

Think about how stupid you are. The American middle class has been screwed the last 40 years. Republicans said they’d fix this. Who are they blaming for your woes? China? Canada? Mexico? Everyone except for the people who actually fucked you.

You said what?

Last I checked MAGA is blaming the deep state, the democrats, rinos, the bureaucracy. The Bidens, George Soros, Wall Street, Larry Fink and Black Rock. We are blaming unelected inferior federal court judges. We are blaming lawyers. We are blaming greedy politicians like Obama, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton.

We Blame CNN, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, and even FOX.

We blame the newspapers, the wall st journal, the new york times.

The universities

Sealydumbass and all the democrats are low intelligence shallow thinkers

Yes, you blame everyone but the guys who are still fucking you. Are you uneducated blue collar American worker? Ask for a raise. It's your boss who's fucking you. Who owns Walmart? They fucked you. And they donate to Trump too.

Yes, you are very close to figuring out what's really going on. How much longer can trump say and do stupid things that don't help you before you wake up.

NEVER? That's right. He tanked the stock market and today you praise him for saving us. What a fool you are.

Those uneducated blue collar workers need to organize just like their smart brothers and sisters did under Biden. But they're going to run into resistance from Trump and Elon. Because raising their wages was never the real goal, now was it? That'll just get passed on to consumers. Eventually you'll say they are only worth what we pay them now. That's what you said during the Bush era. Member? Course not.

 

[M14 Shooter]

Nah. We got rid of those people.

Are you uneducated blue collar American worker?

Trump won because of your apathy towards and disdain for the working class.

Yes, you are very close to figuring out what's really going on

-We- have always known.

Those uneducated blue collar workers...

Trump won because of your apathy towards and disdain for the working class.

Union only serve to get American jobs sent overseas.

Who'd you get rid of? How come things aren't getting better for the deplorables?

Trump will stab those deplorables in the back. Let them down. But are they too stupid to understand?

You can't send jobs overseas. For one, we will tariff you. 2, they are unionized too. That's why companies want to come back stupid. That foreign labor is no longer cheap.

Fact is, the only uneducated blue collar workers doing well today are the ones who are in unions. Writers, healthcare workers, uaw, dock workers, etc.

You can't send dock workers jobs overseas. But what you will do is blame the unions as you automate their jobs. For the record, I agree with automating any jobs that can be automated. I don't care who loses their job because of it. Find something else to do. If a company can do it cheaper, you can't stop them.

Wait. So a company can't buy from China but they can automate?

Yes he won because of the deplorables. And yes I have disdain for them. They are so stupid they fall for Trump. God damn reality tv and social media. The dumbing down of America. I'm just explaining why they are getting conned. I'm not expecting them to get it. Maybe eventually they'll wake up and realize Trump did nothing for them.

The one thing Trump will do for them is cut their social security 20%. But what he'll do is start off by telling them he's going to cut 50%. Then they'll "kiss his ass" when he only cuts it 20%.

This is evidence Republicans are NEVER going to help uneducated blue collar workers. So you are starting a trade war with China to bring jobs back home, unless China drops the tariffs and allows American goods into China, which will benefit those corporations who won't pay American wages. So let's say this brings jobs back home. Besides the fact most of them will be automated, the ones that are filled by humans won't pay shit. Eventually the workers will get fed up and unionize. Then those jobs will go back overseas?

The problem for you is that it's no longer cheap to manufacture in Mexico and China. Their wages are going up and shipping costs are expensive too. Gone are the days where you could send our jobs to Mexico. Mexicans are smarter than you. They know the value of unions.

 

[M14 Shooter]

Yes he won because of the deplorables. And yes I have disdain for them.

Please - continue to do so.
Demcorats, liberals, and leftists will remain out of power, and everyone will benefit.

Things are going so well. Here's Trump yesterday when all his handlers were blowing smoke up his ass. Even he wasn't buying it

Donald Trump’s cabinet meeting on Thursday drew mockery online for the cringeworthy way in which the president’s top officials took turns in sucking up to him.

Cabinet members effusively thanked Trump for his “fantastic leadership,” his “great work” and much, much more.

Critics poured scorn on the comments, likening them to propaganda dished out to leaders in authoritarian countries like North Korea.
“This is so fucking gross. This is a cult,” wrote former Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) on X.

People on social media likened it to North Korea.

 

[M14 Shooter]

Things are going so well.

Working as intended.

 

[sealybobo]

Working as intended.

How so? What results have come from this so far? You say it's "working". What evidence do you have that says it's working?

So then in reality, it hasn't worked yet.

What are you trying to accomplish? Have you accomplished those things already? No? Then keep working dummy. And let us know what you are trying to accomplish so we can see if/when you ever get there. And don't be like Bush and the Iraq war where the mission kept changing. Is this to get a better deal from China or bring jobs back home? Which is it?

You can't say you have accomplished anything yet. Although you did this the last time Trump was president. Somehow in those 4 years America magically one day became great again. But you can't tell us what day it happened. Why was America great back then? Wasn't China taking advantage of us then? So then you lied. America wasn't great back then. Or if it was, it was great under Biden too because Biden had better numbers than Trump 1.0 had.

 

[M14 Shooter]

How so? What results have come from this so far?

The current results are irrelevant; the end result is what matters.

 

[sealybobo]

The current results are irrelevant; the end result is what matters.

Right. So NOTHING has worked yet. You said it's working as intended. I don't think you know what you are talking about.

I don't think...

... period.
You know only what your talking points tell you.

 

[August West]

Since the days of Teddy Roosevelt and the Great White Fleet, the USN has been a means to project force in the name of the National Interest.
So...?

Why do we need to project force? Reagan thought he was a badass for killing a few civilians in Libya, but the laughs ended when one of our airliners were blown out of the sky. Projecting force in the Mideast also brought down the WTC towers. Of every dollar the world spends on military crap, 38 cents of it is spent by a country with big bodies of water east and west and friendly neighbors north and south. It`s American cowardice that awards blank checks to the Pentagon and that started in the early 1950s.

 

[M14 Shooter]

Why do we need to project force?

To protect the Sea Lines of Communication.
Our economy depends on it.

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

Trump’s sweeping tariff policy that has triggered turmoil in global markets and, according to many economists, increased the likelihood of the United States slipping into recession.

Wah, Wah on Wall Street

The GreedHeads are so spoiled and childish they are acting like three-year-olds throwing tantrums now. They can't stand being told "No!" This turmoil is the howling of those who finally got caught with their grab-bag hands in the cookie jar. It is not economically sound.

Specialists Aren't So Special

All the "educated" jobs can be automated, too. White-collar work is just as routine and uncreative as blue-collar work. The only difference is the biased propaganda about each.

Too many lies to believe anything you guys are saying. Let us know when you have MAGA

Trump claimed Thursday that, during his first term, the tariffs he imposed “took in hundreds of billions of dollars from China,”

As many of his colleagues keep pointing out, all that revenue was paid by U.S. importers,” “And we know just from Republican talking points that most of those costs were passed on to U.S. consumers.

He keeps saying that the European Union was formed for the purpose of taking advantage of the United States

The fact-checker further noted that Trump reprised his “old favorite” talking point Thursday that foreign countries were “emptying jails and mental institutions” under Biden “to somehow send criminals” as migrants to the United States.
“I have begged and pleaded with Trump’s team for any evidence, any corroboration of those claims,”

Donald Trump’s cabinet meeting on Thursday drew mockery online for the cringeworthy way in which the president’s top officials took turns in sucking up to him. People on social media likened it to North Korea.
Cabinet members effusively thanked Trump for his “fantastic leadership,” his “great work” and much, much more.



Trump, who paused sweeping tariffs earlier this week after spooking markets, “seemed to need a self-esteem boost

So, the president gathered his top officials for what Meyers called “a ritualistic puckering of the lips and kissing of the buttocks.”
The over-the-top praise from Cabinet members, Meyers said, wasn’t good.

“When your staff goes that over the top with praise, that’s how you know you fucked up,” he said. “I mean, they’re clearly overcompensating. They sound like Hollywood agents after a giant flop — ‘You crushed it. You killed it. Don’t listen to the critics. “The Emoji Movie” was art.’”
Meyers suggested even Trump appeared visibly uncomfortable during the meeting: “At some point, I have to believe even he is going to listen to all this slobbering and say, ‘Is this gross? Does anyone else feel like this is getting creepy and weird?’”
