When at first he does not succeed, try try again. The sad part is half of the US voted for him, knowing it would be retribution and mayhem. Maybe when they find out it comes to their door they might have change of attitude. Especially when doctor and hospital turn them away.
It feels like we’re being “product tested” daily on a smorgasbord of anti democratic ideas. Leaked conversations about repealing the 19th Amendment; repealing same sex marriage; ending birthright citizenship; revoking a woman’s right to vote; punishing women who suffer miscarriages; federal police patrolling our streets; arrests without judicial warrants; lack of due process; inhumane detention centers. Will we resist? Will we even notice?
Exhausted though we may be, silence is not an option if we want to keep our Republic.
Sorry, but in the land of the Orange King those figures are mathematically wrong. In fact any figure that says things are in the negative is wrong. Employment is great everywhere and everyone is rich with all that tariff money pouring everywhere. Factories are being built everywhere and every country in the world has made great, great deals with the US. And 2+2 can and will make 7. I'll prove it;
2 + 2 = 7.
See. Easy. And any maths teacher or fact checker that says otherwise is a liberal traitor in the pay of China! And even worse, a Democrat who drinks the blood of children!
All hail the Orange King!
On a serious note, maybe if the liberal side starts talking about the 2nd Amendment rights when it comes to ICE raids they might get the gun control the right have been blocking for years. Just a bit of reverse psychology.....
Dems do need to come up with something that is near and dear to Repubs to challenge them. If given the Solomon's choice of no abortion or guns, guess which one they would choose? I bet it would be guns.
Yes. Of all the sick sycophants that bow to T, he is the sickest. Do not know what T has on him, but it has got to be a doozy. His loyalty is sickening, yet T readily kicks his butt and he keeps coming back for more. In Repub land there is no such thing as enough is enough, instead give it to me more and more.
I've said this elsewhere, but this is full-blown cult now. The level is the problem. These people have the same level of delusion as those that followed Jim Jones or Heaven's gate, and look how they ended.
The growth in inflation and the drop in jobs is only beginning. Trump has worked hard to build it up to this point. The employment problem resulting from his trade wars was partly masked by his TACO routine, and that companies were preparing for the downturn to come. Now it is hitting and the downturn will continue. As there are more unemployed buying fewer things there will be fewer employees needed to satisfy their purchases. Other countries are settling into their habit of buying from anyone but the US. Employment will continue to fall, prices continue to go up as they run out of the goods they were able to stock up on, with American producers happily raising their prices to match, since they typically can not magically increase production just by hiring more people. Not without massive investment which is dangerous while courts are still deciding on the legality of the tariffs.
Typically the FED raises interest rates to control inflation, on the idea that the higher rates causes fewer purchases which results in more unemployed which results in people with less money buying less resulting in reduced inflation. (yes, I think it is not a good system)
This time Trump has managed to raise inflation by raising tariffs and lowered employment with his worldwide trade war. The best the FED can do is nothing at all. Trump created this mess and only Trump, or the courts, or congress can fix it. This is above the FED's paygrade.
Maybe the courts will be motivated to move a little faster on the issue before them (a lower, specialty court focused on trade law already ruled his tariffs were illegal) now that Trump driven by his TACO nickname, or his desperation to distract from the Epstein case has brought us to the stage where his MAGA followers are starting to feel the pain, giving them one more reason to turn on him.
Are you 'dissing' on me? Wondering why the comments on length, after all, David Pakman writes articles much monger, like the one these comments of ours are responding to. If lengthy discussions are not your cup of tea, what are you here for?
I don’t think that trump will sell (he never gives) Alaska. Particularly since it’s connected to Canada, still a war ally. Once one of his aides tells trump that he’s fumbled his words again (he must have a special word-fumble aide) and he finds out that America owns Alaska, then he won’t sell it. Unlike trump standing on the roof of the White House and proclaiming that he owns it.
Interesting how the new head of the BLS will turn out. Right wing commentators have for years claimed that the BLS understated inflation and unemployment. Shadow Stats, a right wing web site, has shown charts for inflation and unemployment that are much higher than BLS stats show. So now we have one of those former critics that's going to claim that the BLS now has a bias to overstate inflation and unemployment? That's going to be a real interesting tap dance.
Sharpies are a symptom of the disease. The disease is trump and he must be outlawed. There are many court cases still to be tried against him. Let’s get on with these cases because trump has all the time in the world. It’s not like he’s doing anything (constructive).
I can't help wondering at what point is this mad man's desperate and destructive nature going to be terminated. It can't come soon enough. 0n that I think we're all agreed.
Russia and internal domestic policing issues of his own making have given him a life line in delaying the Epstein exposure he's so desperately trying to bury and avoid.
Can nothing be done to bring back some form of reality?
Buckle your seatbelt. T has invited Putin to Alaska to give it to him in exchange for stopping the Ukraine war. My bet is that trip will not happen and T will cave and go to Moscow on his knees.
The 25th as applied only by the cabinet, though it does indicate incapacity as a reason to not have the person be president.
Look at the 14th Amendment, section 3. Remember he gave aid and comfort to ALL the insurrectionists by pardoning them all, after he took his oath of office, again.
We can prepare for success now, and doing so will better ensure our success. Prepare now for Trump's third impeachment. Yes, we have practice now, and Trump has done more and worse. We know to change the rules in the Senate trial so that ballots are secret when voting to convict. We KNOW they are cowards, but then we have secrete ballot elections for a reason. This time hold nothing back, throw EVERYTHING at him. the ones with rock solid proof and the ones where his guilt can easily be inferred. Use things from BOTH administrations, including the Jan 6, since many senators declared they could not vote to convict because he was no longer in office... Ignore statute of limitations as he was not under any risk, to include the obstruction (while president) of the Mueller investigation. Include his countless lies to declare his lack of credibility. Include his trials to make clear he has a 'record' of prior crimes. Include the documents case, since he 'took' them while president. All the bribes and extortion and violations of laws (even when congress and SCOTUS refused to block him), his blatant repeated abuse of power. His obstruction on the Epstein case. Organize it all, publicly on a website, easy to read, no fundraising or overt political bias, just justice. So when we do take control in congress we can act with confidence, as promised, and remove Trump from office. JD will not have the same control of the base, and more likely to be manageable.
For some reason I often find it hard to pack a comprehensive thought into a one-liner. No doubt a limitation of mine. I tend to think in multiple paragraphs. Trump is really good at the one liners though, to give him credit for that communication skill...
You can not believe any statistics coming from the Trump administration.
Love these previews. thank you!!

Just think of Lyndsey Graham having to make that choice on TV. His temples would literally be on the point of explosion.

Trump is now head of the BLS, and he does it all from the Oval Office, using just large sheets of paper.
If sharpies are made in China? Put trillion percent tariff on them. Better yet outlaw them.
Sharpies are a symptom of the disease. The disease is trump and he must be outlawed. There are many court cases still to be tried against him. Let’s get on with these cases because trump has all the time in the world. It’s not like he’s doing anything (constructive).
soo Funny He Makes Up the Charts & Graphs Himself at the Nursing Home !
ADP, the paycheck leader , will be the best indicator of job losses or gains from now on. That is until Taco co-opts them also

If the republicans think playing dirty is fine, why don't Democrats do it? We need something to fight back. What about the 25th amendment?

See a Professional They Might Be Able to Help !
This assumes the Democratic Party still exists doesn't it?
Very few people have heard anything from them since Trump took over. Conspicuous by their absence.
Maybe they are planning something spectacular to rid us of this diseased presidency.
