Keep forming that circular firing squad.

I’m going to slip out and duck down over here to eat some popcorn.

Greedflation worked because the consumer could absorb price increases to a certain extent after Covid.

While greedflation will be a factor this time around. I don’t think it will be as prominent as it was post covid. The consumer is tapped out and is just not buying anymore. People are not going to buy electronics at 60% or higher prices. They will go cheap or just do without.

Trump is either using the threat of tariffs as a negotiating tactic to get something out of our trade partners or Trump will repeat history and be like Hoover. We’ll have a stock market drop, rampant stagflation and a Recession / Depression on his watch.

No, they will learn nothing because Fox News, X and right wing propaganda they listen to is very effective at shifting blame or brushing problems under the rug.

If we want to change their minds we need to pierce their information bubble that insulates them from their decisions.

Lol, this thread is a train wreck and is the perfect example of why Republicans keep winning elections despite being on the wrong side of history and having policies that hurt the American population at large.

The left will never win as long as we form circular firing squads and argue over petty bullshit.

I’m sorry, my “give a fuck” stopped working just after the election results came in.

Trump promised to deport illegals and even “denaturalize” certain citizens. He wants to deport 20 million illegal immagrants separate family and put the in camps while awaiting deportation. None of this was a secret, they fucking bragged about it.

Trump gained 14 points nationally with Hispanics. I hope he goes balls to the fucking wall and drops the hammer. May the people get exactly what they voted for.

Meanwhile, I’m going to do the best to make sure me and mine are taken care of. Stock up on toilet paper, N95 masks, freeze dried food and bullets. It’s gonna be lit!🔥

I have idiotic coworkers but I also work from home so my exposure in minimal.

True, but on the minus side, dumb people actively seeking out the infected milk would artificially increase the instances and thus the spread.

I’m sorry I only see benefits here.

I think context is key here. If you tell a Jewish joke at a Bar Mitzvah or comedy club it comes across entirely differently than if you tell it at a Skin Head or Proud Boys rally.

He told the this joke at a Trump rally where accusations of racism and facism abound. He was probably trying to be ironic but it just comes off far more serious than just a joke.

Fundamentally a rally should bring people together. The Trump team knew what they were getting when they hired this guy. Whatever this comedians intentions were, the Trump team is ultimately responsible for their message and to refuse to have Trump repudiate him publicly and immediately peaks volumes.

Not with that attitude.

Fuck this, feds need to keep their bullshit away from my truck.

Props to the author, for putting this in the first sentence of the article letting me know so don’t need to read any further.

I agree, but this whistleblower needs to leave the state ASAP and let his lawyers fight it out in court. The Desantis regime has a long history of using law enforcement for intimidation and retaliation.

Them are rookie numbers.

His campaign was primarily funded by big money Trump supporters to do just what Jill Steins run in 2016 did to Hillary. He was supposed to peel off dissatisfied left wing or Democrat supporters who would never vote Republican. It only takes a few percentage points to swing the election in a few crucial states to win.

In the end his stances on vaccines, conspiracy theories and general crazy antics ended up peeling off more Trump supporters. He may have been left leaning in the past but don’t imagine for a second he didn’t sell out to the Right wing.

If you want anymore proof just look at the timing of his announcement. He announced he was pulling out of the race at the tail end of the Democratic convention. By doing this is diverting news media attention away from Harris’s acceptance of the nomination.

Not that Democrats do similar things. Biden announced he was dropping out at the tail end of the Republican convention and completely stole any press coverage from Trump and moved the narrative to Harris.

It’s just politics in a two party winner take all system.

Cool, is your community going to pay for that solution?

Good for him. Homelessness was out of control when I visited San Francisco and LA a few years ago.

If Trump and his Facist cronies gain power, they will eventually turn on the people who brought them into power.

Yeah people are reading too much into this. I’d like to think I’d never say shut the hell up to my kids (or anyone else), but everyone’s family dynamic is different.

Unfortunately sometimes you have to make them understand that now is not the time. This may be his attempt to do so.

I only spanked my kids once and that was when they tried to run into traffic. I’m sure some people watching judged me and thought I was a terrible parent. But I needed to make them understand immediately that they can’t do that.

The stock market has been surging at the drop of any rumor or data point that would indicate the fed will drop interest rates for two years.

Suddenly economic data pops up that might indicate conditions for an interest rate drop are forming and the market shits itself?

IMO the market got fat over the summer. Now that the institutional investors are getting back from vacation season they are profit taking ahead of the EOQ.
