Hand grenade capital of the developed world. A safe country trashed on purpose to virtue signal. A very pathetic country. No wonder all the real Swedes are moving to KhaoLak and the Phillipines.

"The loudest and most passionate voices in the Democratic Party have made their values clear heading into the 2026 midterms: F— Trump. F— the rules. Fighting crime is bad. Illegal immigration is good."

 

They are fighting for your right to be victimized by criminals! Thanks!

 

The invective from the trolls will start soon. My response will be:

 

What are the policy provisions advocated by Dems that will reduce crime?

What are the policies you are advocating with respect to immigration?

 

Watch how they spin and lie.

I have had the biggest warm grin on my face ever since Trump won the election. And it is so much fun to watch the Democrats self explode. It just makes my day. President Trump is also laughing at the fool Democrats.

Sweden’s ‘completely and utterly broken society’ serves warning to Britain as investigation lifts lid on crime wave

Left wing socialist Sweden has a serious crime problem with all the illegal migrants they let in. Soon the poor Swedes will be speaking Arabic. 

I'm loving it! Karoline Leavitt Says: The Democrat Party has been completely captivated by these far-left lunatics. And I'm not sure which Democrat on Capitol Hill is going to stand up and be the sensible voice, but I won't hold my breath and best of luck to them if one chooses to stand out. They are enjoying their lowest approval rating ever because this is who they are trying to represent. These far-left activists who don't stand for anything, they only stand against Donald Trump, and they hate. As you just heard from that one individual who wished death upon the President of the United States, they not just hate him, they hate the nearly 80 million Americans who elected him. The Democrats have officially become the party of crazy. President Trump and the Republicans are the party of common sense.

We are quite happy we don't get uneducated 'murricans with IQ below 50 invading our country. As for the recent influx of undesirables, it is being handled.

Hand grenade? First time I hear. As opposed to the school shootings and killing kids capital of the developed world?

Job growth figures are weak

In June 2025, Australia's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate rose to 4.3%, a 0.2 percentage point increase from the previous month, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics. This marks the highest unemployment rate since late 2021. The increase was driven by a rise in the number of unemployed people, despite a slight increase in employment.

US car factories short on rare earth supply.

 

200% tariff on plasma and blood products America can't supply.

 

Yes, everything is hunky-dory.

I usually ignore topics like this. They're just meant to stir up ill feelings.

 

I WILL point out one fundamental difference. Democrats would be happy as clams if we could all find a decent compromise. Republicans don't give two sh*ts, they just want to "own the libs." My evidence? The very title of this mean-spirited topic.

Don't look now, but Canada lost 40K jobs in July.  Ouch.  So much for winning Bigly against the tariffs, eh?

 

Yes, good that the Democrat big business whores are facing trouble.

 

Great if the Democrat Party implodes and a new progressive party forms.

 

But, will this happen before Trump and his robber baron buddies, with the help of the MAGA morons, have totally destroyed the USA (or turned the USA into the North Korea of the West)?

 

Trump is starting to make Hitler, Stalin, Mao and Pot Pot look good.

You think America is winning, when Trump fires the executive who gives him the bad news about jobs?

 

Nobody wins in a tariff war. Some lose worse than others.

 

I'll bet America's job statistics don't include the farmers forced to the wall by cancelled orders from China.

If the Dems really wanted to improve things, why don't they lay out their plan?  2024 was theirs to lose.  And boy, did they.  Because they had no plan.  Nothing beside "MAGA Bad", "MAGA voters are a threat to democracy".  (They're only a threat to big D Democrats)

I'll wait for a few years before I judge the success or failure of tariffs, conceding that there will be market hiccups as supply chains are reconfigured.  When a corn door closes, they'll have to get their corn from someone else.  And those customers will need corn... 

 

Edit:  And if ADM, Bayer, et al, took one on the chin, it wouldn't hurt my feelings.  They're about as evil as corporations can get away with.

 

Trump fired the executive that had to readjust the incompetent job numbers just about every month.

Harris had a plan to reduce government debt by taxing the rich. Who then spent a fortune on convincing the sheeple this was bad, and socialist. Your claim they had no plan is wrong.

 

When they tried the same tack in Australia, the conservative party got one of its worst thrashings in electoral history.

 

That's because Australians have much better bull<deleted> detectors than you do.

Yes, supply chains are being reconfigured. Away from the US, which is increasingly regarded as unreliable and erratic.

 

Canada has taken over the corn market to China. It's not coming back, unless the TACO makes major concessions.

 

The Australian export market with America is worth $40 billion. Our market with China is worth $200 billion. Who do you think we should be giving our attention to?

 

Job numbers are not fixed in stone every month. They require recalculation as fresh data comes in during the month.

 

Your comment demonstrates you are as ignorant of statistical processes as your leader.
