The only thing that Trump is great at is continually finding new ways to fleece his idiot supporters and extort foreign governments and wealthy amoral jackasses to bribe him in exchange for corrupt actions. Everything he does has a corrupt payoff to him personally. His complete lack of any ethical or moral standards is as astonishing as the stupidity of his supporters.

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?

Yes, we know "minority" people who are not black are happy. This is what you voted for.

Scientific reality for ya: at conception, all of us are female. Enjoy that.

Who does this appeal to?

Nobody except big pharma.

It will negatively impact all voters.

It’s hard to tell if he merely wanted to overturn it bc it was done by Biden (which makes Trump a petulant child) or if he’s pandering to Big Pharma (which makes him evil).

Hard to pick a favorite. Since immigration was a top issue for me, i am extremely happy with the efforts to round up illegal criminal aliens. So far, 460 have been arrested in the first two days. And, most of these people are horrible. I truly cannot understand why Biden didn't do something. He knew these people were in our country, yet he ignored them. And, the leaders in these sanctuary cities should be ashamed. Many of these people were arrested and released back into the community.

SNEAK PEEK: We embedded exclusively w/ ICE Boston today as they targeted egregious criminal aliens. We witnessed 8 arrests, including multiple MS-13, Interpol Red Notices, murder & rape suspects, & a volatile Haitian gang member w/ 18 convictions in recent years who told our cameras he “ain’t going back to Haiti” and “f**k Trump, Biden forever!”.

We also witnessed a “collateral” arrest, where ICE arrested an illegal alien who wasn’t their initial target - but was with a MS-13 gang member who had been released by a sanctuary jurisdiction yesterday with an ICE detainer not honored. These collateral arrests are something that border czar Tom Homan has warned would happen in sanctuary jurisdictions. At one point, a woman yelled out “thank you” to ICE as a violent illegal alien was being arrested in her neighborhood.

Fake news! Im sure they rounded them up, but I don’t believe anything they say about them. It’s all posturing.

Of course you don't. You just don't want to admit that Biden was totally asleep at the wheel when it came to these criminal aliens. It was truly an abdication of duty.

Vance said he lied about Haitians eating pets to feed the hangry masses, and now we’re supposed to believe that these baddies are murderers and rapists and gang members. Mmmkay.

This!

No he didn’t say that.

NPR

During a Sunday interview on CNN, the Ohio senator and Republican vice presidential nominee said his evidence for this claim was "the first-hand accounts of my constituents."
