Why won’t these commie loving, America hating bastards just let Donald Trump cook? He knows best.

The Ultimate Goal of DJT’s Mercantilism: Stagflation. It’s gonna get worse, but then it’s going to become glorious! You’ve gotta break a few eggs to make an omelet! Didn’t Donald Trump coin that phrase?

Economic downturn? What economic downturn? Oh! That economic downturn! Clearly that’s the Federal Reserves fault. If those bastards won’t do what The Donald tells them to do he’ll just fire them and put in people that will. That’s how a free society operates. And we are definitely a free society!

It’s interesting that during Trump’s tariff/trade war during his first administration there were 5 manufacturing jobs lost by “unprotected” companies for every 1 job gained by the elite “protected” companies. Don’t we all want to see that again only by a much bigger factor? That would be winning to the Nth Degree. So much winning!

You mad bro?

Mad? No. Worried that a power hungry lunatic that thinks because he was elected president with barely 50% of the vote means he gets to be a dictator whose economic policies threaten our economy by an order of magnitude greater than the brain-damaged doofus he replaced is a better descriptor.

In one thread I've provided you with 13 links, each of which discusses Trump's tariff folly. I don't expect anyone to read them all. Pick one, just one, read it and decide for yourself whether it indicates the author has lost his mind.

No, my friend, you guys have invested so much faith in DJT you can’t bear to think he might be wrong about something. If he’s wrong about something to which you have defended to the marrow of your bones it opens the possibility he’s been wrong about other things. And once that faith is cracked you’re terrified it will shatter into pieces. That’s why you won’t read even one link. Better to remain intentionally ignorant than put your faith to the test.

"Better to remain intentionally ignorant than put your faith to the test." Your epitaph.

[P-DAN], it's like this. The greatest hitter in baseball history batted .406 in 1941. That calculates out to be a 60% failure record at the plate. Trump is batting a minimum .800 right now because it is early in his term. Nobody will bat or lead @100% popularity from any side. I'll take the .800+ anytime. Also, don't refer to faith when addressing me, you wouldn't know it from a terrorist.

The difference between a baseball player's stats and a president's policies are when the ball player messes up he just messes up his stats, while when a president messes up he messes up all our lives. Let me ask you something: you say Trump is "batting a minimum 800" right now. That means he's screwed up 20% of the time. Can you tell me what comprises the 20%? Have you been publicly critical of him for that 20%? I don't think you have. It leads any thinking person to believe you have unending faith in the man.

If you'll edit your statement from "It leads any thinking person to believe you have unending faith in the man" to It leads any thinking person to believe you have unending faith in man, I can go with that. You really are not this $tupid, are you? Also, since it is obvious that you never played baseball, every time at bat does not necessarily impact your batting average. I.e., if you bat .800 it does not mean you failed 20% of the time. Sometimes you walk & it does not impact your average. Everytime you post it drops your IQ.

I don’t know why you are so reluctant to admit your faith. It’s okay! Feel free to admit you’ll defend DJT 100% of the time. You’re safe on this board. There are countless Trump supporters to have your back. In the past you have said 1) you aren’t that smart and 2) you are a NeoCon and nobody has called you out. Go for the hat trick: shout from the mountaintop your faith that Donald Trump can never make a mistake.

 

[Ponca Dan]

Geez. Drama queen.

Not really. Trump's unilateral actions imposing tariffs without consultation from the legislative branch are the actions of a dictator. I don't know what else you'd call them.

I think it's considered more of a "Southern Way" than Texan, but I get your point. Still, you have said you are content with Trump's 80% hit rate yet refuse to point out even one of his 20% miss rate. Why is that?

What was sleepy's "miss rate" Dan? And once you think about, what would kamalla's have been? I guess "anarchy" really is the answer. Wanna bitch about 1/6/20? 🖕

Anarchism has gotten me a political philosophy with which I can relate, Woody.

Sleepy's miss rate neared 100%, and Kamala's would have been also; that's why I preferred Trump over either one of them. Had Biden or Harris won the election I would be excoriating them with the same vigor as I do with Trump, and you guys would think I was the cat's meow when I did. If you remember I loved the riot on Jan 6. I loved the idea of arrogant politicians hiding under their desks in terror that the people were on to their corruption. I'm not a Democrat and I'm not a leftist, Woody, very far from it. You need to find a different "whataboutism." This one doesn't work on me.

You spend 100% of your time on his "miss rate". No need for me to assist. BTW, I am NOT referring to "a Southern Way". That context is meant as an effort to comfort or ease the situation. The Texas context is not.

You clearly don’t know what “bless your heart” means when a southerner says it. My criticism of Trump centers on two things: his insane economics of trade war/tariffs and his betrayal of his supposed pacifist tendencies. Other than those two things I’ve been pretty quiet about him. I think you don’t want to “assist” because you can’t think of a single thing to criticize about the man. I think you’re astonished that anybody could. You have devoted supreme faith that he’s going to protect you from your enemies. Which is fine! It’s a curiosity that you’re afraid to admit it. Virtually every other member of this board (except for me) feels the same faithful loyalty to him as you. So why are you so afraid to just say it?

You keep claiming "I think", "I think", but you both don't and can't. You have made broad, spurious & false claims about my position with respect to Trump. First of all, it's none of your business. Second, I refuse to brook the guffaws, huff & puff of anyone that politically bitches & accuses yet refuses to vote. As such, you can demand of me what you wish. I won't do your homework anymore. Your screed won't be acknowledged unless & untill you have the bollocks to actually vote for a position that you rail at others about. You, your ilk, & your attitude contribute heavily to the problems we have as a country.
