    You would think the line would be short, he has ZERO loyalty and you end up looking like a cuck..............why would anyone want to work for this clown. All of his major promises fell by the wayside, his projection of what Harris could do is being done by him PLUS tariffs and making the USA look like a banana republic

    Now were firing all the Military folks DURING the WAR..................now I know why Hogdbreath got to mad at Mark Kelly for doing that video telling the soldiers they don't have to listen to ILLEGAL orders......that was also projection

    damn man, these stooges are dropping like flies

    I can’t imagine doing the amount of shameless dick riding that they do, and it gains you no loyalty in return

    Millions of Americans paid billions in tariffs later ruled illegal —
    and they won’t see a dime back




    As the result of the so-called “Liberation Day” tariffs announced April 2, 2025, retail prices rose by between 6 and 7 %,
    costing the average American household between $400 and $600 — and many considerably more. For low-income families
    especially, this was a painful gouge into their incomes.

    Low- and Middle-Income American families, and small businesses, accounting for well over half of our country’s population,
    paid out a disproportionate share of their incomes to the government due to IEEPA Tariffs recently struck down by
    the Supreme Court. Total payments amounted to roughly $175 billion. Now these families and small businesses face
    the prospect of receiving no rebates. Thus, the system is regressive for them on both the front and back ends —
    the burden of the original high tariffs and now the denial of rebates to compensate them.

    Stupidity is doing the same thing, excpecting a different outcome.

    after the US Supreme Court ruling that tariffs are unconstitutional,


    Trump Begins Rebuilding His Tariff Wall Citing Forced Labor

    The move is a major step in Trump’s push to reinstate the tariffs he imposed during his first year in office before
    they were deemed unconstitutional.​
