The left wants to destroy the Greatest country on Earth.

Some people from our country thought 

it was great. Great enough to either BS us or really make a effort to solve waste fraud and abuse , I think its a little bit of both!

I’m partial to my country because of its laws . The good ole days of not having to secure things in a department store or worry about fraud. So many other things separated our country from a third world banana republic.

 

“From the day I took office, I’ve said we’re going to comb the federal budget, line by line, to eliminate as much wasteful spending as possible.  That’s what the Campaign to Cut Waste is all about. We can’t wait for Congress to act – we can’t wait for them to get our fiscal house in order and make the investments necessary to keep America great”:Obama

Supposedly, one of the things that makes America great is its legal system.  Real property rights. Real due process. Ot at least that used to be true. The Lefties are doing their best to destroy it, but but for the most part, it's still there.  

 

My little brother got to be friends with a Chinese guy who owned a Chinese restaurant in middle America. My brother used to go there every day, almost, for food, and he and the owner became friends.  My brother's little girl used to like shrimp, so they made a special meal for her every time she showed up. They didn't have to do that, but they did. 

 

Anyway, when the Chinese guy got to the point I'm his life where he wanted to buy a house for his family, he was paranoid.  He didn't know the system and he was afraid of losing the family fortune to a real estate scam.  So my brother and his wife walked them through it.  They did an unofficial inspection. They helped write the offer. They went to the closing.  Of course, not much of that was really necessary in America. America has a legal system and laws, and things usually work they way they should.  That's America.

It's not my deal to prove you wrong. It's your choice to believe or not to. The word of God has been out there for a long time. Think why you don't believe in  God and see if it's traced back to a bad event or your childhood. I'm a Christian and that's my deal. Easy to believe in something that makes sense than other people who have theories. Like I said, we all talk to God eventually.

There hasn't been anything out there except a book of Fairy Thales some thousand years old, but that proof nothing. So I will stay with the Science and their facts.

He can believe what he likes, but keep it private and should not demand it is the absolute truth. Since ages they are telling the same nonsense but failing to provide any evidence.

That's  a contradiction actually.

Funny you should say that

"Tariffs were meant to be a threat to force people into these swap agreements — that’s [what’s in] the paper by Stephen Miran [Trump’s chair of the Council of Economic Advisers]. It’s kind of a “have your cake and eat it too” strategy — which Miran acknowledges.

One of the things we’ve always said made the U.S. [dollar] the reserve currency, is the transactability, the liquidity, the transparency, the rule of law and markets. So, if you’re talking about essentially going in and forcing people into non-marketable, long-term debt agreements, how does that impact the rest of the market?

Do interest rates go down or up with that? Do the people that are holding the marketable securities run away because you’re showing that the U.S. is no longer a transparent, trustworthy counterparty? It’s more like China, where you can step in at any moment and say, “You go into this agreement, or I’m going to clobber you with tariffs.”

That's your choice, and one of us is wrong. Science hasn't proved otherwise and more than half of the scientists believe in God. What's the end game if it's me that's right?

This guy will not destroy the USA but certainly make it NOT GREAT for awhile.

 

Anybody who believes he has their best interest at heart has been fooled like a moth to a flame. They bought the Fox New / News Max and all the so called conservative "truth" hook line and sinker and believe they voted for someone who is going to help them.. what a load of horse s#!t

What "mess" did Obama and Biden leave? 

 

Be specific. 🤣

 

In 2017 Trump inherited from Obama a strong and stable economy with low unemployment, rising wages, and a booming stock market.

 

In 2025, Trump inherited from Biden strong job growth, stock market highs, and infrastructure investment.

You're saying science can explain everything, which it can't, so you're not keeping it private either, nor are they. As a believer, it's our duty to spread the word. It's up to you to believe a scientist or that God exists.We go by faith. Scientists have theories. That everything on earth and in the universe, with all the intricacies involved, came from a big bang that wasn't from God, in our thinking, meaning most of the world's population, is ridiculous. All species, a weather system, the brain and how it regulates everything these species do, that the earth is exactly the right distance from the sun for life to exist, how the moon affects tides, how we all have exactly what we need to survive, along with some evidence that children have died and came back, seeing heaven and relatives they never knew existed. These and many more miracles of life all came to be from a celestial explosion, matter created from nothing., besides energy that the scientists can't yet explain. We prefer a creator.

Coming from someone who wants free trade, meaning everyone else takes advantage of the US and give nothing back in return.

Clearly you don't understand the meaning of free trade.  If you dont like the terms, dont trade...noone can then take advantage of you.

 

Or do you think, as your Leader constantly says, that a trade deficit means you are subsidising the other side? 

 

How long before Trump blames Biden for the USMC trade agreement the Trump signed (if he hasn't already)

Just wondering what's causing you to doubt American exceptionalism?

 

The mother of all jokes... America has changed enormously, no long exceptional, now has a leader who is convicted felon, a conman, a serial liar and centers everything on his massive ego, regardless of showing any leadership re law, values or morals.

Belief is not an explanation. It's an intellectually lazy way to rationalize phenomena which are not yet explained by science.

 

In the Middle Ages, people believed in witches. Do you still believe in them?

The guy the ex copper! He’s sick to see

Socialist ( big S ) and socialist ( small s ) are not the same thing. Small s socialism is when the state owns the big things like the NHS, the railways, electrical production, water, airline etc so the capitalists can't extort the population. Sadly the politicians were corrupted and sold off state enterprises to capitalist <deleted>.
