TRUMP 2.0 From nominations to its last day

[Meathead]

Would you support that?

No, but that's what the Dems were saying and some idiots like yourself agreed, then proceed to calling him a lame duck.

Doesn't make much sense, does it?

Haven't you heard it's the end of democracy and he'll be president for life, succeeded in turn by Don Jr and then Barron?

That's his plan and has been for a while.

I'm basing what I'm saying off what he previously said and done. Also on US and world history.

However, we'll see.

Donnie is a lame duck President, so good luck with that.

I don't get it. You can't have it both ways, at least if you understand the political term "lame duck".

He is not back in the WH until 1/20/25.

There is no lame duck anything right now, just seeing what Trump proposes as his cabinet and how many of them will be confirmed.

One step at a time, people. That is how it works.

President Biden tried to raise the overtime threshold, which is the point where salaried workers are entitled to earn overtime pay. It would have helped millions. A Trump appointed judge in Texas just blocked it. Please tell me you see which party is actually fighting for the average worker.

Take a wild guess who appointed that judge. That’s right — Donald Trump. Thanks to him, 4 million people will no longer get a raise. It’s far from the first time he’s cheated working class people out of their money, and it certainly won’t be the last. [contains quote post or other embedded...

Trump names Chris Wright, head of a Denver-based oilfield service company who has disputed the role of climate change in causing extreme weather, to head the Energy Department. https://www.politico.com/news/2024/11/16/chris-wright-energy-secretary-trump-00189456

Trump wants to cut the corporate tax rate to 15%. This would give... -The 5 largest banks a $4.1B tax cut -The 5 largest drug makers a $3.1B tax cut -The 5 largest US oil companies a $2.5B tax cut -The 5 largest grocery stores a $1.7B tax cut Some populist, huh?

Want to reassure everyone how alone we are NOT. If the numbers are right, voter turnout was only 65%, meaning that Trump's total is only 33% of eligible voters. Account for mass voter suppression, which is no conspiracy - it is FACT - and you've got much less than 1/3 of the country behind him.

Donald Trump is now (1) below 50% popular vote and (2) has a margin of popular vote victory roughly HALF of Hillary's victory in 2016. They believe the left has to lay down and shut up because of this "landslide" victory.

Kennedy claimed that Novo Nordisk, which makes Ozempic, doesn’t market the medicine in its home country of Denmark, where “they do not recommend it for diabetes or obesity; they recommend dietary and behavioral changes.”

In fact, Denmark does use Ozempic, so much so that the Danish Medicines Agency said in May that it would restrict its use until after people had tried less expensive medications to treat diabetes. Instead of a shift to forego medication in favor of lifestyle changes, as Kennedy suggested, it was a cost-cutting move, since more than 100,000 people had received the drug or others in its class, known as GLP-1 receptor agonists.

Calling the incoming president's efforts so far a "generational stress test for the system" Baker wrote, "If Republicans bow to his demand to recess the Senate so that he can install appointees without confirmation, it would rewrite the balance of power established by the founders more than two centuries ago."

Reacting to the nominees that Trump has put forward, including embattled ex-Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Robert F. Kennedy Jr., former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard and Fox News personality Peter Hegseth, David Marchick, co-author of “The Peaceful Transfer of Power,” remarked, "This is like the ‘Star Wars’ bar scene of nominees,” before suggesting, “it’s a serious strategy to blow out the government as an institution because of their belief that it’s become too big, too powerful and represents the deep state.”

Perhaps there is more than one plan for Gaetz and making sure the Attorney General person nominated is on Trump's side like Garland is for Joe and the Progs. Trump saying this is the direction I am heading and what I want.

If Garland were what you folks claim he is, Trump would have been convicted and sentenced long ago

If Garland were what you folks claim he is, Trump would have been convicted and sentenced long ago

Who should Trump nominate for his cabinet positions?

 

[AzogtheDefiler]
