Finally doing something about housing prices. Just think of all those vacation homes that will no longer be used

The aid is still there. There are no cuts. It’s not our fault you don’t meet the poverty standards. /s

Much of what Trump is doing is also illegal here. The problem is who can hold him accountable? He appointed a Supreme Court majority that declared him immune “for official acts” and a slim legislative majority that seems ok with him usurping their authority. He declared existing unions as illegal and eliminated due process. Where did all our checks and balances go?

Don’t let that happen to you

Definitely “pump and dump”, but is it market manipulation to enrich his corporate benefactors or market manipulation to say “I’m winning”

It’s still possible that’s the point. Not the tariffs as a goal but as a weapon to hold over everyone’s head, to shake them down until they all bow before mango mussolini

If you’re concerned about that, you might look into index funds. Many are managed to minimize capital gains at a scale that you could never do in personal trading

it must just be a 4D chess bluff.

Many of us hope against all evidence there is some strategic logic here, some actual plan, some intelligence behind the chaos. I’m still in denial that this could happen in the real world ……it’s just a hallucination about some real estate conman

The casino model of doing business except in this case the “license to print money” is literal. No one can screw it up, right? Nah, let’s declare bankrupt and stiff all our creditors, and our debt will be taken care of. Smart. Business. Move

Who’s the snowflake now?

Yeah my kids are 1/8 and I encouraged them to learn about that part of their heritage but no, they’re just American.

I can definitely imagine that: there were so many “James” in my family. Then again, my brothers middle name was much worse so that may be a reason he never tried

Sure, plausible …… smash her window and drag her out of her car with no warrant, no exigent circumstances, just a verbal claim that sounds like a pretense these days …. Insanity is right

That 52 year old woman. Prime gang demographic

And the worst case scenario for him is people start reading his drivel to get in on the grift

Plausible deniability - there was a public recommendation by a stable genius. Maybe people read his media site and follow his recommendations. Stranger things are happening every day

And orangeboi made himself above the law

Damn, not an active member, and not likely to be this year either

Sometimes “The Untouchables” are best brought down by financial crimes

Arrest his corporate benefactors for insider trading. They’ll find out loyalty is only one way, or worst case scenario pardoning clear criminal behavior goes on record

If the conman-in-chief somehow made himself above every law, above Constitutional checks and balances, we have to start by removing the criminals that enable and support that, or worst case scenario take every opportunity to highlight it to low information voters

He can only flout the law because he has supporters that enable criminal behavior. Remove them and this all comes tumbling down

Don’t see how it matters much. A 19 year old kid called the cops for help. He did the right thing. It should have been the right thing

There’s an effing fence. There was no person and no cop at any risk. How the ef would any reasonable person shoot?

Even if it were an actual aggressive person, actively threatening them, how would any person think deadly force was ok, on the other side of the effing fence?

And the dispatcher had said the kid was so impaired he couldn’t walk and may have stabbed himself? How is that a threat? Behind a fence?

Even if they’re a trigger happy moron looking for an excuse to murder “one of them”, how did they get to that point?
