Increasing & imposing tariffs causes inflation. Tightening financial conditions by the Fed involves raising interest rates, making it expensive for businesses to invest & consumers to borrow.   Higher borrowing costs slow down economic growth resulting in a recession. Welcome to Trump Econ 102.

Murdoch‘s good children want to do this too as soon as he passes away. But the Republican should be standing up for America. I don’t care about their stinking jobs. They’re stinking jobs are not as important as United States of America.. Sissies and cowards and selfish.

We the people that are clear eyed need to get those that for a variety of reasons disengaged from their citizen duties to see the crisis now that will grow exponentially. The 200K fired workers will expand downward to their local levels in ways beyond their worst nightmare! Depression!

Unless Frump's destructive madness hit them personally, his supporters remain unremorseful. As a nation, we are to hit the rock bottom. Too bad for those of us who voted for Harris/democrats.

The 2 Trump flags on my block and the one driving down the hill are gone now. They are the standard "Fox News" Family working class type. Kids outside playing, no phones in sight kinda area. Lots of retired military. I'm in the Hudson Valley so looks like the Lawler issue was a key factor.

The only answer is a Democrat leadership walkout. Disrupt the business of DC peacefully. Stop acting as if it's business as usual. Get Jack Smith, Merrick Garland and Mueller to speak to the American people about the crimes Trump committed. Show the world you're not scared.

Merrick Garland didn't do enough soon enough. He needs to go away forever. Mueller is old and tired. Jack Smith is likely planning his escape from the country before this nazi regime throws him in Gitmo. But totally agree on dem leadership walkout. Why are they participating at all at this point?

Members of marginalized groups, me included, tend to think they waited to God damned long to catch up. This really could end much worse than January 6th ever could have. Just like I said, after the 2020 election, with respect to acts of violence, the number won't be zero...

In all honesty, at this point, so what? He’s in, there’s no election for two years (mid-terms in ‘26). That’s a long time to go with a unified government (courts and congress). If he’s done this much damage in 60 days can’t imagine how things will look like in Nov ‘26. Nothing to hold to account

It is - eventually. Example: Duterte in the Philippines - got in saying get rid of drug cartels 'I'll shoot them myself' then people found his goons out of control, but re-elected (!) now arrested by Int. Criminal Court and in jail

I live in a red county in Georgia, most of my family voted for Trump. The more religious they are, the more MAGA they are. It’s sad. Anyway I’ve seen no buyer’s remorse at all. I hope it happens- but in my experience it isn’t happening here.

Checked in with the Virginia Autism Project chat this morning, thinking there'd be something to grasp ahold of after the DOE is being dismantled, and...I did not find anything. Whatever suffering has to happen to make people feel regret has not happened yet. And my maga relatives? Jubliant.

Adam - with all the respect to you (I have immense respect for you), I'm pleased that you're as optimistic as you appear. There won't be elections going forward. The noose is tight and getting tighter by the day. The dems impotent strategy is pathetic. Nothing but whining about every new assault.

Except for evangelicals whohave been brainwashed by the NAR New Apostolic Reformation (google it) and charlatans like Dutch Sheets and Lance Wallnau who claim to be prophets. Their pride and arrogance will not allow them to admit they are wrong.

Yep, there's not one Drumpf flag in my area of Phx anymore. Bumper stickers are rare. Ppl point & laugh (maybe worse) at elon's rolling firetraps! Folks are realizing they've been played by a couple of con artists. It's one giant SMASH-AND-GRAB!

He is very very close to consolidating power & becoming Emperor/King/Furher/Supreme leader/Big Brother/etc… I am not sure buyers remorse will be enough to derail it

That fever will only work when the MAGA cartel grow a brain and can tell the difference between truth and BS. Not likely to happen soon

Too little too late , IMO. The flatulent fascist has reigns of power ! His cabinet are all Hitler adjacent . Martial law (the insurrection act ) is stated in Trumps Jan 20, 2025 Executive order . Any/all federal funds come w the condition you imprison the people trump hates. Deport trumps resisters

I think that it’s so hard for to understand the interconnected ways that all kinds of aid is created- farmers surplus, etc. They want a simple one word answer that’s why Dems did it! Thus, helping them see truth is soo laborious. That self centered mindset is hard to fix.

such as protests or a significant shift in voting behavior. As you noted, at this point, it may be too little, too late. The consequences of Trump's presidency have already had a profound impact on the country and the world.

It seems like there have been numerous instances where pundits and analysts have predicted the downfall of Trump's support, only to be proven wrong. You're right; it's one thing to hear about voters' discontent, but it's another thing entirely to see tangible actions,

Hope springs eternal. Sure. If it didn't break after January 6, 2021, it seems like one of these diseases that lurks in bone marrow, always ready to come back. And... honestly, I know I'm having night sweats, but I'm skeptical many Trump voters are.

Lets keep things factual shall we. Facts are important! I hate it when people get mislead by bad information. Truth is that Comer could not be bothered by this protest as he was in an orgy with his Sister, First cousin and his grandma.

1) Trump was NOT elected on the economy-he was elected to eat people's faces. Supporters just didn't expect it to be theirs. 2) Longwell was totally wrong about the election and pushed a losing strategy-which the Dems largely adhered to. Nonetheless-I hope this analysis is correct.

Far too many still believe that he’s only deporting evil criminals, tariffs will make everyone rich and prices will drop, Elon’s a genius saving us all billions, etc. These people refuse to consider they are idiots who have been thoroughly bamboozled.

Philadelphia coming through!!!! There is now an official flyer for Orange Turd's visit to attend the NCAA Wrestling championship this weekend! 🙌 Everyone show up and Turn up!

77,000,000 plus Yanks voted for Donald Trump. They are responsible for the dumpster fire that is the US right now. They were warned and unless/until they admit they made a mistake and #riseup against Trump and his co-conspirators, continue to hold them accountable!

The tRump base are the only ones who can take him down. Other groups tried and were told you’re “overreacting”, “you hate tRump”, No!! We know history and we know how it is going to go and might end if we do not stop him. Including you yte ppl are in jeopardy.

I will never understand why anyone thinks trump would be "good for the economy". The guy has bankrupted multiple companies (famously including several casinos), a history of stiffing contractors, not to mention his atrocious trade policy the last time around. Plus all this info is readily available.

Had these people had a massive dose of mocking from us back when they were repeating this nonsense years ago, we might have had a chance. But the media decide we had to be decorous with the sex offender and vicious with the liberals.
