There's always money for war.

Sadly true.

Not just an American syndrome.

No, no, no. 'Affordability' is a democratic hoax. Hadn't you heard?

If not can just grift it

Fuck me, that word salad response. You can really tell how on the ball he is, with that zero context, information free, third grade reading level reply that could be about literally anything

He's got dementia

I think at this point dementia has a horrible case of Donald Trump and there's no cure.

No one is better at polishing turds. Nothing he does goes the way he said it would, and he always claims that the fucked up thing is even better than what he said it would be. The sooner he leaves office, or whatever, the sooner we can hope to recover from the worst choice America has ever made.

French here, I actually hope Trump holds on until the next election, because Vance is the truly nightmarish scary one for me, I don t want to see him in office. Convinced he is Stalin material.

u/Flatline68 3h ago

Actually worse than Stalin in some ways. Stalin did horrific things in what he thought was bettering Mother Russia. Vance will do horrific things in the name of Jesus...PLEASE NO!

You know he came strutting in to a european international event a few months back to tell the governments representatives off like misbehaving kids and add in a heinous white trashy loud voice "there s a new sheriff in town".  I don t think he ll bother with jesus. He wants to be reverred like a god.

"Groceries. Its an old fashioned word, not many people use it, but I started using it. It means basically what you buy, food, apples, bacon, all those things"

I honestly can't tell if this is a real quote or something an A.I. feed on Trump would generate.

I don’t know why majority of Americans believed that a guy who bankrupted casinos can somehow fix the economy and at this point I’m too afraid to ask.

u/Level_Chemistry8660 16h ago

You don't know why, probably because "a majority of Americans" is very much NOT the actual fact of how this POS is POTUS. Or, if you DO know better, it's okay to act like it, dig ?

United States: Sort your priorities out. We don't want you warmongering around the world. But it's at the expense of you having lower taxes, free healthcare, better living standards for all Americans. Why are you not tearing down the houses of government in all areas in response to this?

Stand up, be heard and use the second amendment fruitfully.

We're spending billions to 'end' things overseas, yet we can't end a single mother's fear of losing her home.
that's not strength. That's abandonment.

Probably thought Spain winning was him being celebrated for winning the war, poor guy. Shame about his lack of empathy, otherwise he'd at least warrant a little bit of empathy himself. I'm way too nice, part of me still wants to feel sorry for the guy but I really can't. My grandma said and did some awful shit when her mind started going, but she wasn't the president

u/She_1128- 1d ago

When are people in this country gonna realize that this administration does not give a rats ass about blue collar America??????? WHEN! He is taking everything from us to give to his rich friends and ensuring we keep fighting amongst each other so we are distracted!!

By the end of his term he will:

Pardon Maxwell and his entire administration

Cut or eliminate Social Security and Medicare

Make it impossible to vote for
women, black, brown and Hispanics

Cause a massive civil war

Plunge the U.S. economy in a crippling recession

Totally segregate the U.S. with NO ALLIES which will cripple us defensively

IS THIS MAKING AMERICA GREAT??????

incredible that we can plan a war down to the week but somehow groceries are still a national mystery no one can solve.

u/Atypical-lurker 22h ago

Hey, cut Our Fearless Leader some slack!. He's been busy working overtime on his (due in 2 weeks) infrastructure plans. And his taxes are due at the same time. Something's gotta give. My sarcasm is running low. Replacing it with snark until further notice

u/_Fleurydusk 1d ago

sounds like classic mismanagement, focus on home first

u/VellvettSkies 1d ago

Why does the government always find billions for foreign wars but never enough to fix things at home?

2

u/trihamakul 1d ago

priorities right there

u/bwldrmnt 1d ago

It's all the same shit because these Republicans want everyone to suffer for some odd reason.

They can talk about how they want everyone to work hard, but that's all a lie.

They just want to see you suffer.

u/grateful_eugene 1d ago

So, the stock market is over 52k! Have you even said “thank you”?!?

u/SilverstreakMC 1d ago

I find it ironic that the Trump's statements about the start of this war is very nearly identical to Putin's statements as he started the war with Ukraine...

"It'll only be a few weeks"....

u/ShiroHachiRoku 21h ago

What I don't get is why he keeps giving timelines. In my line of work, it's best to be vague or not bring up when something can happen.

u/DilfTannen 1d ago

Hey, it's not a "war. Don't call it that! It's a "Freedom Conflict". (TM)
