President Donald Trump
I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?
So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at
worsened by the *democratic* *FDR* tariffs.
I am happy we can all agree that trump is at its worst when he enacts atrocious radical leftist policies
Where do I get your revisionist history books? I love fairytales!
Now to the truth:
FDR lowered tariffs after Hoover enacted them and started the great depression. FDR did this because he recognized protectionism doesn't work. FDR literally used diplomacy and trade policy to rebuild international ties frayed by Smoot-Hawley.
Luc still spreading the lie about Biden trying to force people to get vaccinated even though his proposal included an option for regular testing instead, I see.
The rest of his post is also horrific lies, many of which he's been corrected on many times, also, of course.
Donald Trump ordered to pay £626,000 legal costs after Steele dossier lawsuit
The best thing about this is the ruling was made because he 'decided not to pay' the original ruling, so the Judge has set it to that amount.... with non-payment adding a 12% interest on it for non payment... daily
I wonder if the cockwomble thinks his immunity from prosecution by the SC protects him from overseas laws lol.
😃
I just calculated the compound interest if he doesn't pay for 50 days... 180 milliion pounds lol

Ya, I generally ignore the **radical leftist** rants he goes on. They are nonsensical.
One of the few things outside of the culture war issues Trump voters cited was consumer prices. When those go up Trump is going to be hated at impeachable levels. But if there is some question about him voluntarily leaving the Whitehouse and we are all sitting around like we are cool with that state of affairs, then how could he be impeached? Impeachment seems impossible. I don't know. I feel like some kind of massive upheaval is neigh because the elites are failing so hard and there is too much angst and resentment out there towards them which is being bottled up by the bought media.
You shouldn't eat any of the listed food.
What's the price of asparagus? Green onion? Olive oil? Real (salt-flour only) bread? Real (no hormones, grass fed) beef? Real (no hormones, grass fed) lamb? Blue cheese? Fresh (never frozen) crab? Shrimps? Clams? Oysters?
I mean I understand that stuff has increased as well but Coke? Why are you even buying it to begin with? Fast food? Why are you going there?
I was saying that because it was similar to the McDonald's. Notice I also said over a year ago.
Similarly asparagus is something like $3-4 a small bundle I think (could be wrong on that). A lb of 80-20 ground beef is around $5 when it is not on sale and pre-covid that was around $3 not on sale and sales were as low as $1.79/lb.
My wife and I purchase pork/beef from local farmer in bulk and I'm not sure what the average price ends up being for that, but it is also not cheap. Inflation with regards to groceries just seems quite high is the point of the post I guess.
America needs something like the UK is doing:
"For too long, the Kremlin has been responsible for unacceptable threats to our national security — from damaging cyberattacks, malign attempts to interfere in our democratic processes, and attempted assassinations in this country," U.K. Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said.
"Our new Foreign Influence Registration Scheme gives us the power to take much stronger action against any Russian threat."
The British Parliament has also announced that the regulations necessary for the scheme's full launch on July 1 have been introduced.
The scheme requires registration of any political influence activity in the U.K. conducted on behalf of a foreign state. This will also allow MPs to examine whether the interlocutor is acting on behalf of a foreign state to make informed decisions about interaction.
Farage won't like that.
Farage is a ****, so it's fine.
Have we not wasted enough time taking invalid lines of attack against Trump? You see this is the problem, that the actually bad stuff Trump does makes the corporate Dems cream their pants because they are ALL out enemies. Trump, the Dems, Putin...when are people going to realize these people are class warriors at war with the rest of us?

No... it's not been said enough honestly. Trump is a Russian asset.
Piles, and piles, and piles of evidence this is the case. But you don't need to believe me, just ask Jr:
In 2008, Donald Trump Jr. said this:
"Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets… We see a lot of money pouring in from Russia."
And Trump -
Said Ukraine invaded Russia.
Tried to return seized Russian compounds (2017)—These properties were confiscated by Obama as a penalty for election interference.
Repeatedly questioned NATO’s relevance.
Withheld military aid from Ukraine (2019).
Withdrew from key nuclear arms control agreements (2019).
Pushed for Russia’s re-entry into the G7.
Cast doubt on Russian election interference—even after U.S. intelligence confirmed it.
Announced a withdrawal of 20,000 U.S. troops from NATO countries (2025).
Proposed economic deals with Russia despite ongoing sanctions.
Criticized European allies while praising Putin.
And there's more.
All the people Trump brought into his inner circle w/ Russian ties:
Michael Flynn – Secretly negotiated with Russia before taking office.
Paul Manafort – Took millions from pro-Russian oligarchs in Ukraine.
Jared Kushner – Met with Russian banker Sergey Gorkov to discuss back-channel diplomacy.
Jeff Sessions – Lied about meetings with Russian officials during his confirmation hearing.
Wilbur Ross – Had financial ties to Russian oligarch-linked banks.
Donald Trump Jr. – Attended a Trump Tower meeting with a Russian lawyer promising dirt on Hillary Clinton.
Roger Stone – Coordinated with WikiLeaks, which received hacked emails from Russian intelligence.
Michael Cohen – Secretly worked on Trump Tower Moscow while lying to Congress.
Rick Gates, George Papadopoulos, Carter Page, Felix Sater, Boris Epshteyn… the list goes on and on.
when does the 70's style political violence start? is it even scheduled yet?
What's worse - making a mistake the first time or repeating the same mistake almost 100 years later?
that wasn't the first time. the British empire risked collapse over tariffs in the mid 19th century, that's when Ricardo was writing.
this time it's FAR less relevant than back then.
in Ricardo time and in FDR time. even if you completely ban all trade forever Americans would live fine anyway (ofc worse than they would with trade).
when food isn't abundantly available for everyone , tariffs can be life or death. that isn't the case now so now it's far less insane to try them yet again, althoight it's really stupid to do so.
the Corn Laws were existential and caused the death/malnourishment of a ton of British citizens.
Ricardo developed the basis for the theory of free trade we (mostly, not MAGA nor Sanders) still agree with during that period of time.
now is everyone opportunity...again...to stop breathing life into lil mussolini....
he'll go away if you stop engaging him...
There's nothing unconstitutional about being President for more than 2 terms....if done in a certain manner.
Yes , if you are maga and try to manipulate the constitution .
But to make the point clear to trumpsters and you , lapping up incessantly far right maga bs (for trollling purpose or because u are maga , who knows shrug) , here is an interesting quote from the 12th amendment .
https://constitution.congress.gov/consti...
But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.
I think that sums up it all .
But why expect different from people that try to always distort reality in their favour huh ?
But maga trying to have “democracy” in the style of China or Russia -> true American patriots am I right ?

What makes him constitutionally ineligible to be President?
22th amendment
https://constitution.congress.gov/consti...
No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once
Just for you trying to perceive there could be a way is pretty disgusting imho …
But then again he try a coup and failed and he still won a majority so I guess anything is possible .
Especially when he said to not respect the constitution for election purpose was ok .
We see the trend coming …
But the constitution clearly saying he couldn’t .

The key word is elected.
There is nothing that makes him constitutionally ineligible to be President.
Think the only requirement for that is 35 years old and naturally born American. Maybe a few more.
I edited btw ..
Well if you say he could be a third term by not using election , then what are we even talking about then ?
It’s not a term anymore , the American democracy just died shrug
