Trump posts an image of what is apparently his entire administration.

[berg80]

A good balance of people who defend American values

Since when is grifting, making a mockery of the DoJ's independence, extra judicial killings, arresting US citizens due to profiling, and inveterate lying American values?

 

[sealybobo]

He has a pretty good team I'd say. A good balance of people who defend American values and others who look to improve Americas trade imbalances etc.

The chief executive of one of the most hardcore pro-Trump outlets in America lashed out at the president this week, stating that Donald Trump appears “weak and rudderless” on economic issues following a Democratic sweep in last week’s off-year elections.

Sean Davis, the CEO of The Federalist, took to X on Sunday afternoon to blast both Trump and Republicans for not adequately addressing the concerns many Americans have about the continued rise in inflation and the cost of housing.

Trump said “The reason I don’t want to talk about affordability — everybody knows it is far less expensive under Trump than it was under sleepy Joe Biden,” he said last week, a day after declaring: “I don’t want to hear about the affordability.”

No Donald. Everybody doesn't know that. A lot of people see prices are going up, and up, and up.

At least one dumb Canadian is still a fan of yours. Perhaps they want to see America destroyed?

Many chemicals, fertilizers and supplies to farmer producing our food, have heavy overseas components, not to mention modern operational equipment and repair parts from overseas, even on equipment assembled here in the US. That is how farm produce is effected. There is no getting away from the effects of tariffs on production.

There is no across-the-board tariff on Russian fertilizer. In July 2022, the U.S. Treasury issued a fact sheet clarifying that the sale or transport of Russian fertilizers to the United States was exempt from sanctions, per this USDA Amber Waves article and this Treasury Department press release.

 

[Correll]

Correll keeps asking me why I'm not giving Trump credit for at least trying. Sorry but trying is what an idiot does. We shouldn't be electing a guy who doesn't know what he's doing. Or who doesn't listen. I'm sure lot of people told him not to slap tariffs on the entire globe all at once and then negotiate with everyone from there. Wreak havoc on the global economy.

I don't think a lot of MAGA Trump supporters realize how much business we are losing from all those countries who are now mad and looking for other trading partners now. For example look at what happened when China stopped buying our soybeans.

Or look at Canada boycotting us. Canada is Florida's number one foreign visitor. More people go to Florida from Canada than any other country. But this year Canadians aren't going despite the cold weather.

If I lived in Canada and I had a place in Florida, no ******* way I'd stay home December-March. **** that. But they have more resolve than me

While not a complete boycott, there is a noticeable decline in Canadian travel to Florida, driven by political tensions, increased costs, and a feeling of being unwelcome. Some Canadians have canceled trips and are considering selling Florida properties because of issues like US trade policies, tariffs, and the political climate under President Donald Trump. Businesses in areas that historically rely on Canadian tourists have reported a significant drop in visitors.

In the last three elections, MAGA has a choice between a man that would TRY to represent our interests, or a Dem who was actively hostile to us, as you are.


That you are upset that we voted for the guy who DOESN'T clearly hate us, is you being an asshole.

They were falling under Biden again, after inflation dropped.

W6, you seem very confused about the syntax of your language! Prices NEVER fell under Joe Biden, all that ever dropped was the insane rate at which they were going up, from ridiculously fast to a more commonly rate of increase.

Trump is the one that ran on getting food prices down,

And like he said while campaigning, that would take about a year tocome about. First he would have to bring fuel costs down to the point of lowering transportation costs, which means that people should seeing prices dropping overall by next Spring.

Now everything is going up, except farmer's profits,

Odd, Walmart just announced a 25% price drop in some sort of Thanksgiving dinner they offer, over last year's prices.

I'm sorry but Obama and Biden were not hostile to you. But I get why you feel that way. You feel like just like the Republicans, the Democrats also turned their backs on you.

I don't believe Democrats want illegals in for their votes. I think like the GOP serves corporations, so do Democrats. And those corporations love the status quo of allowing illegals in to flood the market to lower wages. But I promise you they (The GOP) will tweek legal immigration and interest rates in order to keep wages where they want them too. It's just easier to fight that than it is illegal immigrants. And illegals really keep the prices/wages low, so I see why both sides loved the status quo.

So I see why you think Democrats stabbed you in the back TOO on the illegal worker issue. Just remember Republicans did too. Probably more so than Democrats. You just don't remember because Trump pulled a jeti mind trick on you and he took the illegal immigrant issue from us liberals. Because we stopped making that argument. Yes, I get it how the Democrats failed you/us. I truly do. I see how/why you are so easily duped. And yes, may as well try this than the status quo.

But I don't know. The status quo was pretty good except for one thing. American corporations/CEO's aren't paying us workers enough. Meanwhile they got rich as **** sending jobs overseas and they're getting rich as **** bringing jobs home now too. They can't lose.

Don't forget under Biden you uneducated blue collar workers got big raises because you went on strike. WITH the presidents support. We know Trump doesn't support unions. So one day you're going to sadly disappointed. After all this you had to go on strike and to find out Donald is not with you. Republicans are against organized labor. No seat at the table for you pal.


President Trump on Monday threatened to dock pay for air traffic controllers missing work during the government shutdown.

Why it matters: The air traffic control system, already strained before the government shutdown, faces more pressure as the record-breaking funding lapse continues


Driving the news: "For those that did nothing but complain, and took time off, even though everyone knew they would be paid, IN FULL, shortly into the future, I am NOT HAPPY WITH YOU," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

• He said he'd recommend bonuses of $10,000 to each controller who didn't take any time off during the shutdown.

Context: Air traffic controllers, who have been working without pay, have increasingly been absent from their posts during the government shutdown.

• Between 15 and 20 air traffic controllers have retired per day during the shutdown — up from about four per day, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said Sunday during an interview on CNN's "State of the Union."

Zoom out: The callouts were not part of an organized pressure campaign — something the union would not condone — Nick Daniels, president of the National Air Traffic Controllers Association, said during a Monday news conference.

Of course you will. You guys are such hypocrites. GROCERIES! you cried under Biden. Blaming it on him when it wasn't his fault. But then higher prices because of Trump policies? What higher prices? You don't see any higher prices.

At least now you are admitting Trump's caused inflation. Stagflation. Trumpflation as you call it. I like that.

Remember when the main topic of conversation was the price of eggs? They did go back down, around here, but just not as low as before.

But they DID go way down. Very uncommon. Sure beats paying $8.00 for a dozen eggs.

 

[Papageorgio]

Papageorgio loves to bring up that Biden said if you get the vaccine you won't get covid. And the CDC and his team the next day corrected him. He fails to mention that part.

But he doesn't seem to mind Trump promised we'd all lose 400 pounds each by the midterms. Or that he lowered drug prices 1000%. Trump's team has yet to correct either of these "lies"?

Dr. Oz was recently involved in a discussion regarding a deal to lower the cost of weight-loss medications. During an event, he estimated that Americans could collectively lose "135 billion pounds" by the midterm elections.

Team Trump is not good at math.

Where did he promise that? Let’s see the quote in context?

 

[Correll]

I'm sorry but Obama and Biden were not hostile to you. But I get why you feel that way. You feel like just like the Republicans, the Democrats also turned their backs on you.

Obama and Biden were clear in their hatred of working class Americans, especially the white ones.

I don't believe Democrats want illegals in for their votes. I think like the GOP serves corporations, so do Democrats. And those corporations love the status quo of allowing illegals in to flood the market to lower wages. But I promise you they (The GOP) will tweek legal immigration and interest rates in order to keep wages where they want them too. It's just easier to fight that than it is illegal immigrants. And illegals really keep the prices/wages low, so I see why both sides loved the status quo.

Of course the dem want the illegal votes. It is retarded to deny it. Also, their donors want the cheap labor.

So I see why you think Democrats stabbed you in the back TOO on the illegal worker issue. Just remember Republicans did too. Probably more so than Democrats. You just don't remember because Trump pulled a jeti mind trick on you and he took the illegal immigrant issue from us liberals. Because we stopped making that argument. Yes, I get it how the Democrats failed you/us. I truly do. I see how/why you are so easily duped. And yes, may as well try this than the status quo.

Only a complete retard who slept though the republcian primaries back in 2016 could claim that maga is unaware of how the country club republicans failed us on immigration.

But I don't know. The status quo was pretty good except for one thing. American corporations/CEO's aren't paying us workers enough. Meanwhile they got rich as **** sending jobs overseas

You admit that the former policy failed, but attack me and maga for wanting to change it. That makes no sense. Unless you are just activley hostile to the American workers. Especially the white ones.

and they're getting rich as **** bringing jobs home now too. They can't lose.

Not sure what you mean here. This is new from you.

Don't forget under Biden you uneducated blue collar workers got big raises because you went on strike. WITH the presidents support. We know Trump doesn't support unions. So one day you're going to sadly disappointed. After all this you had to go on strike and to find out Donald is not with you. Republicans are against organized labor. No seat at the table for you pal.

The unions are for the leftard agenda now, not the workers. You know that, that is why you are shit talking.

Sounds like a good move. They are needed for public safety. Having a hissy fit because of what the dems are doing, is not excusable.

Apparently not too many colored minority people qualified as the best available.

This is the least educated cabinet in recent US history.

So in other words, this country was brought to this horrible point by endless leftwing cabinets full of more college educated people! So apparently college education alone is not the final barometer on getting stuff done well.

Stupid, uneducated and MAGA is no way to go through life.

Unless you suddenly switch to MAGA then, you have nothing to worry about.

It must have been the name calling. The smears. The mocking. The destroying of people. The jokes made from political leaders over Christianity. The threats of imprisoning people into detention centers, reeducation centers and concentration camps.

 

[sparky]

I hear you. You have no choice. If your business model calls for your Return On Investment to be a certain amount to make book, pay bills, keep stock and pay salaries, you can maintain margins or fail your business plan, how much, depends on survivability. If you can get by on less profit, you might, but you do so, realizing the government just took away 10% or more from your business model, hoping you can and will eat the loss. It is just like an additional Federal tax, directly impending the cost of goods sold, and at a whim of one man, who may assign a tariffs, based on nothing more than personal grievance, to fill government coffers, in order to continue tax breaks for high income earners and large corporations, picking winners and losers in the marketplace. I wonder how he would like it, if somebody raised his taxes by 10%.

If media is any indication,.they are quite different people. I have been watching a wide array of media lately, learning from MSNBC (which I used to avoid like the plague), Young Turks (far left, though coming around to libertarianism I think). Then there are the BBC, France 5, DM German media. I even watch clips from a couple of "white monkeys" (pro-CCP Westerns who live in China) as it's interesting to see people self censor thremselves though they suggest they dont. I have watched far less Fox, Sky News etc. Dems and GOP along wit their media are quite different. Neither too impressive.

There is no MSNBC. It died.

Why? Are you in a bankrupt nation and want somebody to fix it? I didn't even realize you had posed the question until now. Does this mean you like the tariff taxation plan of senile Wacka Doodle Trump? Maybe looking for low priced 50 year mortgage? Wondering how much you have to invest in Trump family business to get to steal, defraud and money launder with an immediate pardon for all crimes? Are you needing Federal troops on your block? You could be inline for a photo session, if anti-American values, rule of law and constitutional constraint, enough to be on his team. Can you live down to it?
