Agree that the EOs are mostly noise.

But his recklessness will end badly. Unforeseen and totally predictable (releasing J6 thugs) events will hurt people. Prices are going to skyrocket, especially grocery prices with the ICE raids.

But MAGA will complacently watch the misery unfold and take joy in owning the libs.

Double joy? I'll take joy in their poor suffering

When will Trump stop whining?

Pastor was mean at church!
Flags were going to be half mast!
It’s too cold outside!
Wah, wah, wah.

No different than what Biden did, including the two from Virginia who murdered a police officer. And let's not forget the pardoning of his criminal family members. I am so happy he is gone!

Trump let more than 1600 out of jail who were convicted already. Biden's were protection against future retribution .

And Trump let them out of jail. He pardoned them. Biden mostly communed death penalty sentences. MAGA doesn’t understand how these are different.

It's a race to the bottom when comparing our two most recent presidents. Trump will win.

He has had a terrific start. Even his most ardent supporters like me can admit that, at times, his first term was meandering and unfocused, though unquestionably successful. (For example, before Trump, I don’t think anyone seriously thought that Roe could ever get overturned.)

But if the first two days of the second term are any indication, this is going to be a highly effective presidency. The onslaught of executive orders has been truly a sight to behold. I mean, he revoked LBJ’s Executive Order 11246, which was one of the starting points of affirmative action and discriminatory hiring practices in this country—this was an order from 1965! He appears to truly be working to right many of the systemic injustices deep-rooted in society, not simply tinkering on the edges. (And I am happy about Executive Order 11246 despite being a minority because I don’t doubt my ability to succeed, even on a level playing field.)

This has been truly inspirational—I’ve been glued to my TV and X trying to keep up with it all. What have been your favorite early accomplishments?

The 1965 EO forbade discrimination based on race in Federal hiring. So you, like Trump, believe that Federal managers should be allowed to discriminate?

The EO 11246 has been used as a disguise to discriminate, instead of the original intention for too long time.

Thanks for making me lmao! Yeah, he's getting off to a great start! Showing how incompetent he is! Why did you fools vote for him?

This might not be an early accomplishment but surrounding himself with oligarchs while acting crazy will almost certainly bring back antitrust actions.

I liked when he declared everyone—including himself—to be female

Here’s the common denominator whenever a maga talks about his accomplishments or what they are happy with. It is always about greed, selfishness, hatred, and resentment. Always. Never a word about helping people or the greater good. It is just me me me. They only care about their own pocket book and making sure that nobody gets any sort of advantage or leg up that they don’t get. Even if they don’t need it. Example: DEI practices.

If he does what he says, in some ways, I will do better under Trump. I will get his tax cuts. But I don’t care about that. I care about my disabled neighbor getting affordable scripts and proper accommodations at work. I care about the special needs daughter of my (maga) cousin and want her to have a school to go to. I care about the state of the planet we are leaving for our kids/grandkids. It is not all about me.

If it weren't for Trump, cable news and newspapers might actually totally collapse. Every time Trump says something nuts, it brings eyeballs to the news. Trump is single-handedly saving journalism in America. Whenever Trump does Trump things - threaten to invade Greenland, talk about eating cats, dance to YMCA - a journalist says a little prayer of thanks.

Problem is he's got a whole crew of Adolph Eichmann type bureaucrats ready to rock.

Most of the people who do disaster cleanup are undocumented immigrants. Can't wait for the next Florida hurricane.

Toss up between releasing his private militia hostages from the DC Jail, pardoning the Silk Road drug overlord, and failing to comprehend what our Bishop was asking. Let’s not forget encouraging civil servants to snitch on each other and basically ceasing all work at NIH.

OP's gonna be thrilled by this:

They plan to eliminate non-profit status for healthcare organizations (that are currently non-profit).
Private equity will buy them, strip assets, and abandon them.
Or United Health Group will own them. Good luck with that.
Meanwhile, this also gets rid of public service loan forgiveness for who?--doctors, who have to borrow fortunes in order to complete their medical training (and we already have a physician shortage, especially in primary care). There are people who just got accepted to medical school who are having very serious doubts, because they will be in debt for life.

They may also be targeting EMTALA, that's a rumor anyway. Or Trump could use an EO to prohibit enforcement.

I can only assume OP is a 1 percenter who figures nothing would stand in the way of her treatment for lymphoma or whatever. And no worries about the price of eggs.
