Pro-Trump media thread

[Morley]

It's funny how conservatives became so obsessed with that book "The road to serfdom" that it became their blueprint for installing a Christian monarchy backed by billionaires.

You're too generous. None of them have read it.

As Trump said today so succinctly, Who wants open borders?

Trump, or else he wouldn't have convinced Republicans to vote against one of the most extensive border security bills in decades.

Who wants higher taxes?

Trump, or else he wouldn't keep going on about unilaterally taxing Americans billions of dollars without representation or legislation through tariffs. Have you already forgotten his unilateral $80 billion tax increase on average Americans that he saddled us with when he was President?

Who wants expensive green energy and expensive gasoline?

Trump, or else he wouldn't have brokered the deal with OPEC that caused the loss of a third of America's oil rigs, while also spreading absolutely crazy crazy lies about green energy (like windmills cause cancer, lmao... stable genius).

Who wants inflation?

Trump, or else he wouldn't have massively increased government spending, keeping interest rates suppressed, and ballooned the national debt with his out of control money printing.

Who wants another scamdemic?

Another one? Once again, I refer to Trump's own plan that he issued to Governors that was more restrictive and called for more drastic and longer shutdowns than anything even the most leftist governors implemented.

The rewriting and mythologizing of the absolute chaos and idiocy of Trump's Presidency is wild.

Trump gets props from MAGA -- and Ajax has identified himself with MAGA even though Ajax only seems half on board -- for talking up Putin, Xi, and Kim Jong, as strong leaders who rule with an iron fist and whose subjects do everything he tells them to. Just the other day he praised Xi for how tough he is over his people. For some reason this is a weird LARP MAGA has, to be ruled by a dictator. Presumably they think it's such an honor because they'll be the object of Trump's affection while the left will be the ones who suffer. But the only folks benefiting under the right-wing Holy Trinity of Xi, Kim Jong, and Putin, are a small number elites; in particular the ones who haven't been executed. There is no room for Ajax in that inner circle who gets special privileges. Seems like every person who has ever worked with Trump who ceases to have a material interest in promoting him ends up hating Trump. Ajax will be fodder like the rest of us. Look at Xi's epic lockdowns. That's the kind of thing Trump is praising and intoning he should be able to do with his subjects.

I mean, Trump hung all the J6’ers out to dry. Why they keep worshipping him is not only sad, but pathetic.

Why would I want any special privileges or to be part of the inner circle? That's for people like Michael Cohen. The only thing the America First movement asks for is a politician who would quit giving their paychecks away to China, welfare queens, and illegal immigrants. Then you berate them as selfish and racist because they claim the right to decide what they give to charity and what they keep. Then you act surprised that they don't want to vote for you. When in reality you've just figured out that you don't need their vote in order to seize their property anymore.

As we predicted Democrats printing money has produced massive inflation and many of their uneducated welfare collecting base of voters are ignorant enough to believe it's because corporations all of the sudden decided to be greedy and price gouge on groceries, gasoline, or even higher education.

We never wanted to be a part of the inner circle of elites. We never asked to be taken care of or spared the pains of a fallen world. The only thing conservative American people or their ancestors for that matter ever demanded, ever fought for, is freedom. And yet you can't ever seem to be able to let them alone. The resource of tax chattel is just too enticing to the communists.

[Doctor Steuss]

As we predicted Democrats printing money has produced massive inflation [...]

For people who are interesting in things like raw data... and reality:

FY 2017 (Obama's Last Budget) - $0.67 Trillion Deficit
FY 2018 (Trump's First Budget) - $0.78 Trillion Deficit (more socialist that Obama right out the gate)
FY 2019 (Trump) - $0.98 Trillion Deficit (note, pre-COVID)
FY 2020 (Trump) - $3.13 Trillion Deficit (only $2 Trillion of this was COVID spending)
FY 2021 (Trump) - $2.77 Trillion Deficit
FY 2022 (Biden) - $1.38 Trillion Deficit
FY 2023 (Biden) - $1.7 Trillion Deficit

Note, that with the Biden deficit, American citizens (many in Republican states, where the Senators and Representatives voted against the bill, then held out their hands for it after they pretended to be opposed to it) have received over $2 Trillion in investments in our future by providing quality construction and engineering jobs repairing and improving our neglected infrastructure, improving our national security. With Trump's deficit, American citizens got some welfare queen checks signed by him.

Even if Biden's next two budgets ballooned to $2 Trillion deficit, it still won't match Trump's massive $7.66 Trillion dollar deficit money printing massive inflation turd he squatted out on our country.

As predicted, MAGA's "America First" printing money has produced massive inflation.

For some reason this is a weird LARP MAGA has, to be ruled by a dictator.

It simply illustrates their clamoring for fascism. They wish to Sieg Heil.

The difference between Donald Trump and Jim Jones is that Donald Trump will charge his followers for the Kool-Aid.

A person might want to rethink who will be charging you for things.

In Los Angeles McDonalds restraunts started charging customers for the bags they put their cheeseburgers and fries in and cups they put their soda in. They find ways to take your money, saying it's going to some good cause and it ends up in a disaster.

In California the gas is $1.50 more than in Texas. They tax and tax and tax yet the state is in a full meltdown mode. When they do give funds to a certain causes like ending homelessness it just lines the pocket of those who get the money and very little if any goes to the homeless.

24 Billion to address the homeless issue since Newsom took office in 2019. Now he has thrown his hands in the air, doesn't really know how to address the issue and issued an order to take down all the encampments blocking sidewalks and others considered dangerous in the state. Doesn't matter because if Harris wins I'm sure he will be heading to Washington D.C as the head of some bureaucracy

The state has passed laws that communities need to put in so and so many housing units. City Council members have no thought of how to carry out this out and cut their meetings short when someone wants to address it.

Those in the know say we need to separate garbage and put certain parts in this bin and certain parts in this bin. Now they say Methane from grass bin, the cardboard bin, etc are now making climate worse.

If it goes in a grass bin, or a cardboard bin, or in a bin with everything else unsorted, it’s going to emit methane if it ends up in a landfill. The bins - or the sorting - aren’t the problem in that case.

Cardboard, at least, stands a fair chance at being kept out of the landfill and diverted to recycling if we use cardboard-specific bins, but we’re not too good at doing that. That’s a bit of a shame because it’s the most economically viable common waste candidate for recycling.
