As is well know it is in effect an additional tax funded by the US taxpayer and business. A matter which doesn't appear to get any coverage is how much will be clawed back as operational cost tax deductions by business. Additionally the trillions of dollars of debt added to the national debt by Trump policies. Trump 2.0 already added trillions of dollars to US debt

In other words currently no empirical data available. All the media channels you reference are extremely toxic, including some who have been subjected to major fines by federal authorities for vicious lies. Accordingly, at least for me, you have zero creditability and will no longer engage in any dialogue with you

Any of these claims / allegations got any actual proof? I would guess they are just usual MAGA lies / deflection. In any case don't US Presidents now have immunity thanks to Supreme Court / Trump so it seems to be expensive time wasting.

All main supermarkets and McDonalds in Australia have publicly stated they will not be importing US beef So much for Trump's claim of a great deal - Lol.

Compounded by the GOP's willingness to ignore their Oath to defend the Constitution. Currently the US checks and balance process has been thoroughly corrupted by Trump and his enablers. and is in fact farcical.

I am very tired of MAGA responses with deflections and denials which would be your sole purpose asking me to provide link/s when the matters have been in the media and well publicised. Go irritate someone else, even better, cease the aggravating behaviour.

Covered extensively in US and intl media

There are currently many legal battles under way due to Trump's actions.with the Supreme Court eventually ruling on the matters, Unfortunately Trump was able to stack the Supreme Court with all the cowards in the GOP. Fact of the matter is Trump should have been banned during his first term. Have to wait and see how all act of abuses of power end up min his current term

Being fired for speaking truth to power. Another step towards an authoritarian State.

Actually a speech by Biden at the National Bar Association’s Centennial Convention. For me a speech making a number of relevant accurate observations whom I would venture the majority of Americans would concur.

The former president said, “There are moments …that forced us to confront hard truths about ourselves, our institutions, and democracy itself. We are, in my view, at such a moment in American history, reflected in every cruel executive outreach, every rollback of basic freedoms, every erosion of long-standing established precedent.” Biden laments over Trump’s handling of the presidency in speech: ‘These are dark days’

Nonsense. Trump's statement infered Israel has gone to far with it's aid blockage, All you're doing is the usual deflect. Thankfully the Israelis are now permitting some extra aid, including air drops, but still totally insufficient. Israel has lost a great deal of goodwill due to it's over the top response to Hamas by way of killing innocents and human rights abuses / war crimes. Not going to respond any further to yet another MAGA with eyes firmly closed to reality. Trump shares Melania's reaction to starving children in Gaza | Watch

This is why I'm usually reluctant to answer MAGA question as often deflection / denial reply. I say you're splitting hairs. As noted above, from Trumps' comments it is blindingly obvious Trump (including his wife) are very unhappy with the food supply issues in Gaza whilst noting the images of starving children - my words - don't lie and are disturbing

Long overdue for truth to speak to power. Even Trump is now acknowledging the Israelis have gone way to far. Let's see if the MAGA supporters on this forum are able to follow their leader's condemnation after deflecting / denying for so long.
