Agree that this one is a pet project. Maybe as a kid he had a special interest in the American Revolution and he remembers it in a kind of jumbled way (tariffs used as a tool... taxation without representation... England... oppression and infrigement... King!) looking at tariffs through the lens of his very volatile business career. |
Trump is a Russian puppet, blackmailed into doing Putin’s bidding. He’s also motivated by a desire to stay out of jail, feel worshiped by his base, and exact retribution on his enemies.
The man wears orange makeup, a wig, and has limited intelligence and vocabulary. He’s also a convicted felon. How did America vote for this? We are getting exactly what we deserve for our ignorance, apathy, and prejudice. |
Not PP but he’s obviously mentally unbalanced. It’s also worrisome if he’s doing this for any other reason besides being mentally unbalanced. |
He’s mentally unbalanced in some obvious and predictable ways, which makes him easy to manipulate and use. |
Yes, I kept asking, “What fool gave him those props and figures”. He has his believers such as Peter Navano, who really believe this archaic and incorrect nonsense. Of course, not one person in Trump’s billionaire cabinet will be impacted negatively by a swift economic downturn. As his commerce secretary, Lutnick, said , only crooks and fraudsters would complain about missing a social security check. |
He made a deal with the devil and the evangelical religious right along with David Duke’s followers of white supremacy and that’s how the world ended up with a president trump. Or maybe those two groups are one and the same. |
Ok, so we agree he’s morally deficient and cares nothing about anyone but himself. He’s a sociopath. Big whoop. What does this get us? |
a recession? i don't know - what do you mean what does it "get" us? it gets us screwed, and probably, electorally, will help with the midterms and 2028 but who knows |
+1 Listen to Steve Witkoff’s interview with Tucker Carlson. |
No. He’s very cognizant of what he’s doing. He may not believe he’s going to screw things ip but that doesn’t make one mentally ill. |

Dude, listen to any of his speeches the whole way through. His brain is tapioca pudding. He is completely incoherent, just rambling stream of consciousness nonsense. It's incredibly clear to anyone not in a cult. |
And he was taught to run business like the mob. Bribe, extort, grease the palms. Launder money. Avoid any responsibility. That’s what he’s done to our country too. “Saving” money by reducing public services, profiting of privatization, and lining his pockets with protection racket money. Not only does MAGA not recognize a personality disorder when it’s rubbed in their face, they’ve obviously skipped the entire Mafia genre of films. |
The same skills are necessary to survive in the mafia as they are in politics. Do you honestly think that "persuading" various politicos is done through words alone? |
lol stay on the sidelines where you belong, poser. |
