President Trump inherited an economy that was, by most conventional measures, firing on all cylinders. Wages, consumer spending and corporate profits were rising. Unemployment was low. The inflation rate, though higher than normal, was falling. 

  
 

Lets count the lies just in this morons opening paragraph.

1.) Trump inherited an economy that was “firing on all cylinders”.    No explanation needed. Just a bold-faced little liar.

2.) Wages and everything was on the rise. What good does that do when prices have skyrocketed everywhere? You think a 75 cent raise to someone means ****? People would have all needed their incomes to raise by at least 1/3 just to cut even with inflation. Nice little cherry-pick. Lie. 

3.) The inflation rate was falling. Again, pure ****. 

The voters decided everything you just said was false.

You know how people like Trump and Musk keep repeating this line (or some variation):

I’m a billionaire / I’m wealthy, therefore I cannot be bought. 

Well it turns out there was a quotation from a century ago that refuted this “reasoning:”


“You will hear everlastingly, in all discussions about newspapers, companies, aristocracies, or party politics, this argument that the rich man cannot be bribed. The fact is, of course, that the rich man is bribed; he has been bribed already. That is why he is a rich man.” ~ G.K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936)

The jury has issued its verdict.

The presiding judge has clarified it.

Your feefees are of no consequence whatsoever.

Here is the totally ridiculous "testimony" of each and every so called "witness" who in fact WITNESSED NOTHING..... 
Keep digging that great big hole full of STUPID for yourself Richard..it's always my pleasure to prove what a totally brainwashed and misinformed RUBE you are.

E. Jean Carroll accused several men of sexual assault including a babysitter’s boyfriend. a dentist, a camp counselor, a college date, a boss, and Les Moonves from CBS – and, of course, Donald Trump.

She couldn’t recall the date, month, season, or year the incident happened

She never told anyone in the media about it, despite being publicly obsessed with her own sexuality

The dress she claims to have been wearing didn’t exist at the time

Her description of the dressing room at Bergdorf Goodman was inaccurate, making her sequence of events impossible

Her lawsuit was bankrolled by Jeffrey Epstein pal and Democrat (and Nikki Haley) mega-donor Reid Hoffman

Democrats created a law (The Adult Survivors Act in 2022) to enable her lawsuit to proceed

Her accusation is the exact plotline of an episode of Law & Order (one of her “favorite shows”)

Trump’s Apprentice was also one of her favorite shows

She has a history of falsely accusing men of rape, including Les Moonves

She told Anderson Cooper, “most people think of rape as being sexy. Think of the fantasies.”

She made a career promoting promiscuity, even writing glowingly of sexual assault and naming her cat Vagina

Carroll’s interviews on TV, social media posts, and inconsistent information concerning her allegations should have been enough to throw out any case, but not with Judge Kaplan.

None of her "witnesses" witnessed the alleged sexual assault".I

First rule.  I don't want to hear:

--you have tds
--**** you bitch boi
--you're a groomer, blah blah blah

Its not my thing but just because its not my thing doesnt mean it not someone else's thing so why not keep out?

 

• Men who enjoy dressing up like women and pretending to be women for fun are mentally ill.
• I would not allow convicted pedophiles to read to children
• I would not let convicted criminals doing time for violent offenses read to children
• I would not allow child beaters to read to children
• I would not allow anyone in a mental institution to read to children.

Children do not exist to entertain creepy, insane adults.  Adults need to be the guardians of children, even if that means keeping a "harmless" pervert from reading to them.  Again, CHILDREN DO NOT EXIST TO ENTERTAIN ADULTS!

All I see when it comes to tranny story hour are ADULTS claiming that OTHER ADULTS have the right to dress in drag and read to children.  What I do not see are hords of CHILDREN complaining that they are being treated unfairly because THE WEIRDO GUY CAN'T READ BOOKS TO THEM!

Not in the 4 trillion in tax cuts

I bet that few voted for this

Because they were told that it will never happen

There’s been a lot of shouting lately about tariffs—mostly outrage, often sarcasm, and rarely substance. Like most issues in economics, the truth about tariffs isn’t as black-and-white as the loudest voices want it to be. They’re not inherently good or bad—they’re tools. And like any tool, their effect depends on how, when, and why they’re used.

Let’s talk pros and cons.The potential benefits:

• Strategic leverage: Tariffs can pressure other countries into fairer trade deals or compliance with labor, environmental, or IP standards.
• Protecting key industries: Temporarily shielding developing or strategic industries can give them breathing room to grow and compete globally.
• National security: In cases where supply chains rely heavily on foreign adversaries (think semiconductors or rare earths), tariffs can support domestic alternatives.
• Encouraging domestic investment: Higher import costs can incentivize companies to source or produce locally.

But there are clear downsides too:

• Consumer costs: Tariffs often lead to higher prices for goods, hurting lower- and middle-income households the most.
• Retaliation risk: Other countries may slap their own tariffs in return, damaging exports and sparking trade wars.
• Market uncertainty: Businesses hate unpredictability. Constant tariff threats can stall investments and hiring.
• Supply chain strain: In a globalized economy, many “American” products rely on foreign components—tariffs disrupt that balance.

The key is to ask: what’s the long game? Are the tariffs being used to force structural changes, or just to score political points?Unfortunately, a lot of people skip the research and go straight to the knee-jerk reaction—usually driven more by who proposed the policy than what it actually does. That’s how we end up with people defending or trashing the same tactic depending on whose name is on the signature.

Now, a note to @Blackvegetable ...aka Darth Evader:
You, more than anyone, should understand the importance of fairness. You’ve spent years belting out questions and demanding answers from everyone else while dodging your own at record-setting pace. You're currently owed 75 dodges, and that’s being generous. But I know you won’t tolerate that. Narcissists never do. You love dishing it out, but you melt the moment someone holds you to the same standard. So go ahead—deflect, insult, and post 16 questions in return. The forum’s seen it all before. And don’t worry, I’ll be skipping your questions at the exact rate you’ve skipped mine.

Fair’s fair, Veghead. Try it sometime.

Trump is "playing the long game" in part for young people who aren't old enough to vote yet.

\This is why he says no other President would be willing to stick his neck out for a noble cause that of course has no guarantees and wont begin to pay dividends until late into a president's first term...[if that].
The "Chicken Littles" who began  condemning this enormous project from Day One are in many cases those who could not care less about America's  self sufficiency.
Self sufficiency is actually a matter of national security.

That’s what the retards (on LiberalForum and elsewhere) think…

Now ask <[who]> brought them there?

The Fairy Boat Express?…

"What has happened to my country, what has happened to the UK" is what you said. When I returned to Athens, 3 years ago, that is exactly what I said to my self "What has happened to my country, what has happened to Greece". Sounds familiar to you? Europe has fallen my friend.

 

I'm from Brazil. I've been to London three times last year, and I must say, we're supposed to be a third-world country, but it doesn't look like it compared to London. London is a scary place, with bedbugs all over, in all three hotels I stayed in I got dozens of bites. Prices are crazy right now, and the city's dirty as hell. What's more, the English people seem to have vanished; there are hardly any in London – it's remarkable.

“What's more, the English people seem to have vanished; there are hardly any in London – it's remarkable.”

Yep, it’s almost like a failed Austrian painter warned about this 100 yrs ago…must be a freak accident

TRUMP is the best and he proved it...
Donald Trump bluntly tells Terry Moran ‘I don’t trust you’ as the two spar over first 100 days

Does it really help for Trump to get combative during these interviews.  If the interviewer is asking bad questions - this does happen,  I'd rather see Trump give a thoughtful, well informed responses where he rejects the interviewer's premises and then proceed to explain why its a false narrative with facts.  This is stronger than what he actually did. 

If Trump caught the interviewer making false narratives 3 times, at that point, he set up the interviewer for the type of tong lashing Trump gave him.  But, without the set-up, it the tong lashing falls flat. It will be used against him.  A good comedian has to prime the audience and then spring a fantastic punch line on them.  It's the same thing with interviews where the interviewer is being a bit aggressive and using false narratives.

Trump's got all the right people twisting in the wind.

Trump is the World's # 1 Troll....no one else is even close

Trump turns your emotions into a weapon that allows you to destroy yourself while he watches and grins

Trump masterfully serves up "Chaos" his pet squirrel for you to chase..."Hey Look!...A Squirrel!!"

Trump also has a pet Goose for those "Exciting Wild Goose Chases" he sends "all the smartest people" on.

So the grade for entertainment value is an..............A+


Trump is a bull in a China shop breaking all there is

Trump is a builder, so he also rebuilds all he breaks

Trump uses old ideas that work and tries new ideas...it's not just more of the same

Trump commands as in "Commander In Chief"...as he was elected....mandated to do

Trump wins.....America loves a winner!

The grade for Leadership and Change is an A+




The only other alternatives are:

more of the same.....we've done that for decades

criticizing and bitching....we did that before Trump....during Trump and will do it after Trump

the grade for those who think "Alternative" is F.....that **** had failed and will continue to fail

STFU because your opinion really doesn't matter


Understand....this is the opinion of a professional....your opinion does not matter....it's not professional

Already have many times

The article you provided  begins by saying that DOGE has "gutted" the Federal work force.
I didn't read any further than that since I don't read or pay any attention to what looks like  Yellow Journalism.

https://www.statesman.com/story/news/po ... 187967007/
The government grew to 3MM employees under Biden

Next I asked Google to simply tell me how many Federal employees  have been either fired or laid off and none of the search results gave a straight answer to that question.
The articles I clicked on were peppered with speculation about how many employees  COULD get terminated....but none of your usual sources were willing to provide a plain and simple answer as to how many people have been terminated so far.

Maybe you could provide us with the grand total so that we can decide for ourselves if the Federal Gov. has in fact "BEEN GUTTED" by DOGE.
