No, we DON’T all feel this way.

I’m really optimistic for the future, because we have a president who isn’t afraid to address the problems that have been building for decades, in particular, millions of people who are here illegally and shouldn’t be.

I do not think most of these illegals immigrants are bad people - BUT - they shouldn’t be here. I wouldn’t be allowed to just show up in Mexico or Guatemala, get a job, use govt resources and schools for citizens, and stay there indefinitely. I’d get kicked out. Same thing should apply here.


Likewise, I’m happy we’re finally addressing trade imbalances and unfair tariff practices by other countries while the US doesn’t reciprocate equal tariffs. Personally, I think tariffs should look like a mirror, where we base our own tariffs on goods from other countries at the same exact rate they set for US made goods.

Iran should never have a nuclear weapon and we’re finally putting teeth into that, rather than bribing them with billions of dollars that they then use to fund the exact nuclear program they accepted bribes to not pursue.



So no, drama llamas, not everyone shares your ridiculous dystopian outlook.

Thanks pp. I totally agree.

I am so optimistic for the future in so many ways.

We were lied to about so much by the previous administration. So glad they are gone. Hopefully for good. No member of that admin should ever be able to work in politics again.

See that’s funny because I feel that no member of the current administration should walk free again after their trials for treason and corruption.

Um, no.

We can have a president that does what you describe WHILE not disregarding the constitution, upholding their oath of office (not causing an insurrection). Accepting the will of the people which the current president didn’t do in 2020. Not slamming judge’s rulings because you don’t like it. We don’t need someone in charge that has the temperament my son had when he was 5 yrs old!

Could go on and on and on.

We’ve had a succession of Presidents who all acted very presidential…… and left us with the mess that Trump is cleaning up.

Between Presidential and Trump, I’ll take Trump right now. Because at least his UNpresidential ass is trying to fix things in care about. We can go back to presidential presidents when stuff is fixed.

What do you care about specifically that he’s fixing?

He is fixing nothing. His tariffs threats are wrecking the economy and he’s alienated our closest allies. He ripped apart America’s science funding (our greatest engine for economic growth over the last century), and used the office to carry out personal, extra-Constitutional vendettas. He’s an abomination.

I'd feel happy for you, except you have a President who lies to you and keeps a information that would go against the story he is telling you under cover

He's a deeply stupid man but he hates what you hate so you are okay with him lying to you. And let's admit, you never liked the U.S.anyway.

Too much freedom.

Don't worry, papa Trump will hook you up to the matrix where you can live out your 1950s fantasies.

So it turns out our closest allies really hate us unless they can rip us off. Trump does a great service exposing reality without the fake politicians sneaky lying. Love Trump.

You know what's funny?
The bolded summarizes the US under Biden.
He and his administration (and the Congress) lied to us about really consequential stuff. They kept so much undercover and it is finally starting to be made public now. Not only the fact that Biden was not cognitively sharp enough to be president, but about other things like China and Iran interfering in the 2020 election (yeah, Wray lied), the whole Hunter Biden saga, the border is secure, and a plethora of other issues.

We knew Biden has been a liar his entire life. The media worked hard to bury his past in order to ensure his victory.

Get back to us when there are a documented 30,000+ lies told by Biden versus those told by Trump. And those were just from Trump‘s first term!

Exhibit One.

Some costs related to travel — like lodging, car rentals and airline fares — are down compared to a year ago. And prices for some goods have fallen as well, including for gas, smartphones and other electronics.
In April, prices were lower year-over-year for nearly a third of the goods and services categories tracked by the consumer price index.

There is no pleasure living in the US due to politics, standards of living, how expenses it is, the lack of real freedoms, half of the country engulfed by the maga cult even when facts stare them in the face, a broken and cruel SCOTUS who insists on unlimited executive power that has sealed our fates as a country, AI taking over, and tech bros being clearly in charge, our way of life being dismantled, education on its knees…there is no amount of praying that will ever see us through, it’s over for all of us. It’s too late.

It feels this way because in five months and ten days Trump has undone 249 years of democracy.

The United States has become cocky and arrogant over the past 80 years since becoming a super power at the end of WWII. Maybe we needed a man without honor and integrity to shock us back to our senses. Trump is base, mean, and dishonorable. He is devoid of all moral character and a code of ethics.

We need to look in a mirror and face our shame and ask ourselves how such an evil and vile glob of human blackwater waste became a hero to 49.9% of voters in 2024.
