Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[Edge-]

And the jobs a LOT of immigrants do is ones that teens aren't going to do. Farm work. Very hard, very tiresome, very backbreaking farm work.

American teens*

Because immigrant teens who were trafficked here or were otherwise here undocumented have been hired by US companies to do jobs like "cleaning meat packing facilities" - https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/fed...uses-rcna72930

he is the uniter

uniting the free world against the us, functionally

it's funny how republicans frequently accidentally accomplish their goals, but in the reverse. like those republican politicians loudly arguing to prosecute pedophiles that get arrested for trying to have sex with a child

I said it very early on that Trump is going to do one thing that hasn't been done ever. In getting the world to basically dislike or outright hate the US. He is the Great Unifier.

Just not in the way he wants.

Dems if they aren't complicit need to stop calling this shit tariffs and call them what they are regressive taxes on the working class.

[Breccia]

Trump threatens bombing if Iran does not make nuclear deal

"Oh come on, there's no way he said that."

If they don't make a deal, there will be bombing. It will be bombing the likes of which they have never seen before.

That sure sounds like wanting to start a war in the Middle East to me. Hey @tehdang the dictator and rapist you deliberately support is now pushing for a war in the Middle East. Therefore, you now want war in the Middle East unless you specifically say otherwise.

I believe the only person not calling them taxes is Trump and the hardcore MAGA crowd. Everyone else sees them for what they are, a tax on the middle class and poor people. From Fox News basically not being able to sugarcoat it to Republicans in Congress having a problem with them to normal everyday people that aren't part of the cult that may not know much but they know what a tax is, it has not gone over well.

The only people actually cheering them on are the auto unions because they think it will bring jobs back when in reality, it may to a point BUT it won't be in union friendly states, only states where there isn't a union presence.

But hey, because Trump is actively threatening the car manufacturers if they raise their prices in regard to the tariffs is that there is knowledge they may just call it a day and shut down for a while and therefore not be ANY auto maker job out there.

Hmm, unless there is a new type of bomb out there, not sure if people haven't seen it before Don.

I mean, there is video of the bombs dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima. There is the video of Tsar Bomba. There is video of the cluster bombing during WW2 and during the US war in Afghanistan.

I think your dementia is kicking in Don. Because unless there is a neutron bomb or some new type, we have seen pretty much all kinds of bombing. I mean, they are watching it live, right now, happening in Gaza.

Anything to distract from the fact that you, right now, have a failed administration because you cannot even achieve your stated goal of deporting people.

I keep coming back to it: history will not be kind to this timeline.

In 50 years, the Trump era will be a cautionary tale.

Five wars!

Well, Trump decided to step into it and state that what is happening over in France with Le Pen is bad. Maybe he saw how someone is supposed to be dealt with when they break the law and didn't like it.

"I know all about it, and a lot of people thought she wasn't going to be convicted of anything," Trump said.

"But she was banned for running for five years, and she's the leading candidate. That sounds like this country, that sounds very much like this country," Trump said, in an apparent reference to legal cases that Trump himself faced before he took office.

However, and this is going on a tangent thought here, he knows all about this but what about the 4 missing soldiers with 3 of them confirmed dead Donnie?

In the ongoing...hold on.



Hey, remember when Zelensky didn't wear a suit and Trump cultists said that was disrespectful? Just making sure we're on the same page.

With inflation up, tariffs looming, multiple invasions/wars being threatened thanks @Edge- the GDP about to go negative, consumer trust dropping to record low levels and of course the rest of the world losing all faith in the USA, Trump signs an Executive Order that bans ticket price gouging.

That was worth his time.

This is one EO I can get behind seeing as Ticketmaster(Live Nation Entertainment) is absolutely notorious for basically gouging fees out of everything along with pretty much requiring acts to only use venues they use otherwise they won't sell tickets for them. I know it won't do much about them but this is one area that should be dealt with. As much as there are other much more pressing issues, at least this is directing the FTC to look into Ticketmaster and other such entities.

It doesn't even do that it really does nothing he can't even do one good thing.

Eh, still just one, right? I mean, they're all just American territories rebelling against their rightful leadership, right?

So just, like, a widespread civil war.

Right?
