DOGE is identifying fraud, waste and abuse of the tax payer everyday. Billions or maybe even a trillion/year will be saved long term. Running things with common sense.
Unlike the last administration, whose sole action to every problem was to drop money from the sky on every problem , or implement "social justice" to anger the population through crazy policies, this administration governs well.
Unlike democrats, they don't just campaign well. They actually run things well. This is what the democrat party was before the elites took over.
America chose well. Have a splendid day!
I mean this kindly, I wanna have whatever it is you are smoking. It's clearly one helluva drug. I wish I could be this much checked out from reality. Goals!
What were you smoking when you told me the ONLY way to fix strangers flooding the southern border was through new legislation and that until then, the influx could not be fixed?
Trump found a brand new way by tanking the economy.
You lied to us. Just like you did about Biden's cognitive health.
No new legislation on immigration was needed. As we kept telling you, just enforce the immigration law in place.
But no, you kept it going to shove your ideology of multiculturalism down our throats with unchecked immigration and all the intended consequences thereof.
You democrats just can't be trusted anymore. You've proven yourselves to be untrustworthy elitist globalists.
Oh, but you trust Trump with the economy and your 401k portfolio? How's that working out for you? Trump's proven himself to be erratic (we actually knew that from last time) and untrustworthy (also knew that before he even ran. This was well known in NYC).

Tariffs or no, the bolded has been an issue for me for a long time. Being environmentally conscious means nothing if we are dumping our tech devices so frequently.

My car is old (20+ years), but has 120k miles, good mileage for a gas powered vehicle (32 mpg on highway, 27mpg locally), and still passes emissions and safety inspections with flying colors. Debatable whether recycling it and other cars every five years is better than holding onto this vehicle. Similar on electronic devices.
Not happy about tariffs but if it gets people to be more environmentally responsible, they will have some positive effect.
Driving 20 year old car is not good for the environment.
But putting a new car every four to five years into the dump is??? Even recycling the parts costs energy (hauling the parts, melting them down, etc.).
Don’t forget the environmental cost of manufacturing and recycling 4 new cars.
New car are better for the environment because old cars leak fluids and shed plastics and metal. Plus the older cars pollute more vs newer cars.

Can you imagine if just one day in his life, Trump woke up and tried to make things better for Americans instead of looking for brand new ways to make everything so much worse.
Trump 47 is literally a gift from the likes of you.You gave us this and set us up for what's happening. If only you cared about Dem constituents in the last 4 years, but you ran away with the madness of your stupid culture revolution, identity politics, money printing and fluffing up of asset prices and enriching billionaires, and pissing off more than half of the population with asinine Covid measures that had nothing to do with science. Dems successfully executed massive wealth transfer started by Trump 45. Shall I say, congrats?

Frankly, a lot of jobs including high tech where I work, do not need as many degreed professionals either. Even some jobs in health and other industries. We do need high school diplomas to be symbolic of people achieving certain standards. Some kids have been robbed of education because they’ve been promoted without attaining reading and math standards.
Maybe the adults in red states should prioritize their schools and kids education. Lord knows blues states throw enough money at them.
2025: West Virginia, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Nevada, Kentucky, Alabama, New Mexico, Texas, and Indiana rank among the least educated states in the U.S. These states struggle with lower educational attainment, lower graduation rates, fewer students in top universities, and lower scores on standardized tests.

Manufacturing 3 ton single occupancy vehicles with massive batteries and rate earth metals just to relocate emissions from the tailpipe to the power plant. Just massively destructive to the environment and the climate. Democrats couldn’t grok this until Elon became a political enemy, but now they understand it quite well.

They object to migrants and trans folks, which are our values. I certainly admit that I wouldn’t mind seeing $3500 iPhones (temporarily) if it would hurt Republicans and help us. I admit that I was happy about the stock market crash and sad about yesterday’s bad g up day. I want to win back Congress from Republicans, so of course I want them to look bad.

A 20 year old car was built in 2005. It has essentially the same pollution controls and engine efficiency as a car made yesterday. You have zero clue WTH you’re babbling about.
