But Trump's corrupt family is richer....so fair trade.

โIโm going to burn the country downโ
I mean anyone who took the incoherent ramblings of Trump as anything of value at this point brought it on themselves.
The saddest thing is, a lot of those who voted for Trump did think his incoherent ramblings were harmless. How many people went shocked Pikachu face when they learned Trump actually put in tariffs? Or that heard his "dictator for a day" comments and brushed it off?
Somehow, a lot of people 1) heard Trump's ramblings, 2) assumed he was lying, and 3) they still voted for him, even while believing he was full of shit.
I know it's probably not you. But I don't understand how people can even step over 2. Who wants a president that lies more often than speaks the truth? Even if you think the lies are harmless, how would you ever trust such president? The reasoning doesn't add up, because I don't think reasoning was involved. Voting for far right is usually an emotional choice, not a logical one.
You're absolutely right. How anyone can accept he's a liar and still believe him is baffling to me, as well.
I'm just glad I picked this username.
And everyone else.
Yeah, but Joe Biden had a raspy voice and Kamala laughed weird, so it could have been worse.
In fairness, the real problem is that they maintained that everything is fine, actually the economy is fine from my numbers, now everyone remember not to vote for the insurrectionist felon we did nothing about for 4 years
They could not be more half assed and milquetoast. They were so busy trying not to make any enemies that they totally failed to meet the moment
Don't worry, WW3 has been brewing for a while now. And so has a civil war in the U.S.
Hes just trying to speedrun the ending. So we can pick up the pieces and get back to normal. Honestly, its a big brain move by a very stable genius if you ask me.
All he wants is for the U.S. to be great again.
I wish we could just assume you are being sarcastic but Acellerationism is a philosophy some with actual power hold quite seriously.
Yeah, I know, and they're insane. They're up there with creationists who think the rapture is going to happen, and thats what climate change is, so they don't want to do anything about it.
Too bad the Lord doesn't just rapture them really quickly.
WW3 with the 2nd Civil War DLC at the same time.
I hear they might be offering mad max skins pretty soon
Which US; there may be two soon.
Guys, guys,, please keep the "united" in both names so the next generation feels deep irony
Also, I don't know about you, but I hate when they delay the trilogy finale for 80 years, leaking teasers and empty spin-offs like the Vietnam war and Russo-Ukranian war.
Sad Korean/Cold/Afghanistan/Iraq War noises.
And so has a civil war in the U.S.
I kinda doubt thats gunna happen. most people here are too lazy to fight and would rather look at tiktok videos on their phones. and anyway everyone knows war is hell so that's a further deterrent for it**___**
Do you think civil wars only happen when people want to fight? They are usually caused by extreme divisions. Nobody wants to go to war, if that was a deterrent, there wouldn't be any wars at all. This is just naive.
But I thought the Russian-Ukrainian war was supposed to start ww3 like years ago.
Any war that involves NATO (proxy wars included, ofc) could possibly escalate into WW3 nowadays because regional powers have gained greater power to fight back. Maybe that's why the fears today are a bit more warranted? Idk.
Still waiting for the $5000 promised to me in February so I can invest it all in crypto and be a billionaire by the summer, any day nowโฆ
If we can up inflation enough....
Lol no
MAHA?
Make America Heterosexual Again?
Hateful?
Hedonistic?
Hupercalifragilisticexpialidocious?
I think it's Make America Healthy Again. I seem to remember brain worm talking about that when he joined up.
Healthy makes sense, thanks!
Actually nerd noises it's,
Make America "healthyโขยฎยฉ" again
To be fair, they are actually banning dyes in food. That only took decades.
At least the memes were good
....meh
Would this be the MAGA come to Jesus moment we have all been waiting for?
MAGA and Jesus are not on speaking terms.
Maybe, some people still think Donnie is playing 4d chess. ๐คฃ
Pfff I stopped waiting. We have already seen that they will ignore logic and the evidence of their own eyes to imagine that they are winning even as the guillotine begins to slice through their neck.
Actually of all of those promises I believe inflation is holding steady and pretty low around 2.6% through Trump's term so far. But it's a trend that's been going since July 2024, so pretty much just a continuation of the prior state of the economy?
Either way its surprising given all the fluctuations and instability of the markets with Trump's tarrif threats / inceptions / backdowns - I dunno, I'm not a market guy but the market guys in media don't seem to have an explanation.
I'd guess that steady rate too will also fly out the window if the US declares ~~war~~ special military operation on Iran, so give him time I'm sure he'll mess this up too.
Inflation takes a while. Shocks that affect consumer confidence can actually increase spending temporarily. What's happening in the US right now is that people are spending more in order to get in all their long term purchases (car, tv, phone, computer, kids toys) before some combination of inflation and tariffs push the prices up. But this will only last as long as people's excess of spending money lasts. Then consumer purchasing will, if nothing changes, recede massively.
The markets are disconnected from reality. There's a crazy amount of wealth at the top and they gotta put it somewhere. So it's basically just a gambling site were rich people bet on what'll happen next in a soap opera. Some of the rich people get to see the script before everyone else does. It's now relatively stable because they've convinced themselves that TACO futures are safe.
The economic conditions are basically the same as in the late 1920s and Trump's tariff policies are the same thing they were doing back then. But don't worry about what happened 1929... TACO TACO TACO BUY BUY BUY!
It ain't WWIII, authoritarian regimes have a limited shelf life and Iran and Russia are past their expiration dates.
Donโt forget Civil War II
