As I recall, it's me who proved you were a liar in the other thread! You are fooling no one. When you are caught lying, you accuse others of lying! 🤣 -
It's true that Russia did not have the financial resources to maintain the nuclear weapons and missiles it inherited from the Sovjet Union. However, it has so many that even if only 5% still work, it would be enough!

Here's the obvious fact. Obama supported a deal to restrict and control uranium enrichment. Trump 1.0 trashed the agreement. Iran declared it was not bound any more by the agreement and accelerated it's enrichment program. Trump's is now trying to solve a situation he largely contributed to create. https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/iran-nuclear-deal-trump-united-states/story?id=123020009 -

No. It's Trump who trashed the agreement in 2018! 🤣 https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/iran-nuclear-deal-trump-united-states/story?id=123020009 -
Coming trade deals or massive inflation?

"Trump is always right! Except when he isn't BTW “I just signed it, and it’s done. And so we have our trade agreement with the European Union, and it’s a fair deal for both, and it produces a lot of jobs, a lot of income,” Trump said. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/jun/16/starmer-and-trump-finalise-uk-us-trade-deal-at-g7-but-steel-tariffs-still-on-hold -
The main reason why inflation decreases is external. It's due to declining oil prices, caused by SA (and OPEC) decision to increase production last year in order to regain market shares. It has nothing to do with Trump! https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/inflation/food-inflation-in-the-united-states/#google_vignette

You're making stuff up again. Who wrote that 2 weeks was too short or too long? No one! -
It seems you are confusing "bring prices down" with lower inflation rate. Groceries prices did not decrease, contrary to Trump's promise. It's just that they increase a bit less than before. 🙂 Actually, food inflation is at 2.9%. The only reason for the bit lower inflation rate is the decrease of gas price, which is not caused by the U.S. The main reason is the increase of production decided last year by SA and OPEC, in order to regain market shares. The other is the decreasing demand related to lower GDP growth rates globally. https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/inflation/food-inflation-in-the-united-states/#google_vignette I forgot eggs! Prices decreased compared to the peak caused by bird flu, but it's at around the same level as when Trump and Vance campaigned about it. So it's also a failed promise.

candide replied to spidermike007's topic in Political Soapbox
Trade deals may not be free trade deals. It's impossible to predict anything about Trump, but his intent seems to be to finance his tax cuts with tariffs paid by American consumers and businesses. The 10% base tariff may remain in a certain number of cases. Of course, he will lie again and claim that it's the exporting countries that are paying tariffs, not Americans! 😆 -
I wrote "that's right", so I did not challenge your assertion. The trend is showing a useful chronological comparative view which complements the comparison between polls. A number can be interpreted differently, depending on the direction of the trend.
