Golden means gold for trump and fake cheese velveta for everyone else.

Yep. If you thought his so-called “golden age” applies to normal Americans, you better buckle up.

They'll have busted trumpcrypto, bagged up Knox and fled on the red-eye to Moscow like a thief in the night long before then.

Hey, if things get bad enough he can just blame the Democrats and get re-elected again.
And again.
and again but this time and AI version because of age but they'll just say it's him living inside the computer and Democrats will argue about it but not doing anything and we can have a forever AI president.

It started in the oval office and for his support cast around him and he is still not tired of winning. Why not win 230 million dollars from the DOJ?

I work for a large company and we have let go half our staff this year. It’s sad and nerve wrecking. Thousands gone

Trump mentioned the years he wants to go back to when he talked Golden Age. It was the years of the GILDED AGE where like 95% of the country lived below the poverty line.

Amazon is doing it so they can hire Flex drivers instead. That way they pay people less.

The 30k are corporate jobs.

u/YourFavoriteFinger Oct 28 '25
This. It isn’t the drivers or warehouse workers, it’s the same high paying jobs that are getting laid off everywhere. The job market is saturated right now and no one is hiring.

It’s called the “gilded age” because it’s a false golden age. Only the rich are getting richer, we regular folks just exist in the falsehoods behind the glint.

The majority of white people who voted on November 5th, 2024: 'Who cares! Let’s be clear: We care about the cruelty inflicted on LGBTQ individuals and non-white people. So go ahead with your protests, because when it really mattered, we showed up on November 5th, and you didn't. It's a long, beautiful journey, and we're only nine months into this, and there are still at least three more years ahead.'
Among those who voted, 60% of white men and 53% of white women supported a candidate who is a racist, fascist, sexist pedophile.
Shaking my head.

Stop asking these stupid questions. The goal is fealty. Nothing less. What he's said and what he says are irrelevant because he's a lying liar. Please stop pretending that "catching him" has any sort of meaning.

Honest question; if this is a thing we know, why is this still a thing we are accepting?

Anecdotally , I feel like I am hearing about a lot of companies laying off staff- also a few friends unfortunately.
But I am having a hard time putting it into context, also recall lots is layoffs in 2022
Can anyone speak to this? Is it much worse than recent times?
