  1. That increase of benefits puts it back into the economy, it all gets spent. Tax cuts to the rich goes just goes into the pile, most likely in a different country.
  2. They can always threaten to send him to Iran, where they'll probably torture him for three years before killing him.
  3. Trump’s small-dollar donor fundraising is beset by confusion and fatigue IMO there is very little doubt about him having his little hands in the cookie jar. There will be another round indictments, this time from the Federal Election Commission. This is from the 2020 campaign Trump’s campaign manager Parscale is "milking him like a cow": "He is a sucker" There were revelations that Parscale was suddenly throwing around money for luxuries far beyond his means, like yachts and big-ticket foreign sports cars. That it was handled on the down-low leads me to think there was some sort of money laundering re-routing campaign contributions to DT's pockets. Do not forget that before he got into politics DT did a lot of wash-work for Russian oligarchs, so he has experience in this sort of thing. “notoriously corrupt even for Azerbaijan” Also, he knows he's going to need a lot of $$$ for the court challenges to the upcoming election; he knows no amount of money added to the campaign will help him get the votes, the big expense will be legal cost for the new election-stealing attempt. Let's see if the FEC allows those legal costs as campaign expenses.

  4. My theory: when asked by pollsters, people will say DT because they're afraid of their rabid MAGA buddies who are also present. 42% for him
  5. Maybe back in the 2016 campaign, when DT started provoking the yokels to harass the press and calling them sc_mbags etc, wasn't such a good idea, don't cha think? Nixon blamed the press too. How to get the press to be nice you? Being nice to them is a good place to start. Is it really such an abstract concept?
  6. What is the difference between a word salad and that babbling delivery that DT does when he puts on his show? They're eating the dogs! Battery or shark? Whales catching cancer from wind turbines!
  7. For these lads drinking is part of their holiday. Back in India there are still incidents of people dying of bathtub gin. Sometimes it even gets into the international news. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/22/world/asia/toxic-moonshine-death-india.html
  8. Sometime in the future it may be that he is charged with abetting a sedition initiative. "Back to Africa" boyo! Can they confiscate all he has?
  9. Can a naturalized U.S. citizen have their citizenship revoked?
  10. To be succinct and a bit crude: It's like when somebody makes a loud commotion about 'UGH! Who farted?' you know it was them that did. Every thing that DT accuses Biden-Harris world of is stuff he and his are doing. Example, holding back disaster aid for non-politically aligned regions was HIS thing. Trump refused to give California wildfire aid until told how many people there voted for him, ex-aide says Trump’s False Claim of Stolen Disaster Relief Funds The more you look, the more is revealed. And why is he so adverse to fact-checking?
  11. Good pic! No limit to the amount of goofy captions to go with it. "I just wanted to see what it was like with an uncircumcised one"
  12. Elon seems to have Bond villains as his role model. Dr. No would be the simplest to compare: brilliant scientist/engineer but otherwise definitely not playing with a full deck. But notice that he has enough sense to NOT go into space on one of his own rockets. Low IQ genes? There's a word for believing this sort of thing which your own genes prevent you from knowing. ☺️ Otherwise a very funny post.
  13. And we got a lot of bad genes in our country right now https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-sounds-alarm-illegal-immigrant-murderers-bad-genes-in-country Actually, he may be on to something: these two had an immigrant mother And then there's Barron. Melania supposedly came in on a genius visa, when she obviously uh, umm, doesn't qualify, so she's an illegal immigrant?
  14. They added a dancing monkey to the road show. If he wasn't so rich I'd suspect a Nightmare Alley aspect to it. You all who own his autos better say nice things about him or he'll shut down your car.
  15. The first time I heard the term October Surprise was in 1988, and it referred to something GHW Bush (CIA chief at the time) did prior to the election in 1980 with Iran (remember the Tehran hostage thing?) and it appears to have succeeded in getting Ronnie elected. I will not comment on the personal relationship between HW and the young fellow who tried to kill Reagan.
  16. Yep. I don't think even the corrupt Supreme Court could let this pass (for anyone other than themselves).
  17. Death in automobile rate: 13 people per 100,000 in the US 32 people per 100,000 in LOS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_traffic-related_death_rate
  18. If lightning were to strike MAL or hisself, it would influence a whole lot of voters!
  19. So if DT gets back into the WH is he going deport Musk the foreigner?
  20. Doocey Jr is the resident MAGA clown at WH press conferences these days. I'm waiting for the press sec to have security throw his ass out. Nepo baby indeed.
  21. I think all the Ron DS stuff when he was trying to sell censorship and restriction as freedom may have opened a lot of eyes in Florida as to what the MAGA GOP is really about. Here's hoping that will reflect at the polls. Maybe they will even remove Rick Scott!
  22. No problem, he'll have doctors who will declare he is as healthy as a 22 year old. If Harris wins this year she just might be up against Liz Cheney in 2028. Might be interesting to save the vids of their joint appearances this year and watch them as they tear at each other's throats when that time arrives.
  23. It's tough for Vlad, that old USSR trope about how their international people's liberation initiative will elevate the workers of the world etc. Can't run that one anymore. Maybe it's the way these dictators are being shaped by Occidental movie characters. They seem to fashion themselves as Bond villains. Vlad even resembles one of the agents in From Russia With Love:
  24. Now THAT, sir, is the epitome of optimism! I would like to see that, but I'm hoping to at least see them get rid of Ted Cruz. Kinda funny how right-wing media continuously blasts the Ivy League for being a socialist-commie-fascist-[feel free to add any -ist word to the list] while lauding their own dunderheaded quasi-fascist heroes that it has produced. When Josh Hawley first appeared they couldn't say enough about his brilliant CV. But as with a lot of people in the US with impressive academic credentials the "brilliance" is seldom discernible.
