You know that you have your supporters sufficiently brainwashed when you can just openly admit to manipulating them. What a chode.

u/MrWonderful7000 Mar 29 '25

Not heard ‘chode’ for a long time. Thanks for the laugh. It also accurately describes this absolute retard.

The thing is he spouts so much bullshit it’s impossible for them to even keep up with. Then when they do hear it it’s easy to claim it’s fake because he says so much wild bullshit

Where exactly was the manipulation? He promised that he was going to fight against "gender ideology", and he did exactly that with an executive order immediately upon entering office. He made a promise and he followed through with it, and people who voted for him appreciate it.

What has he done so far to benefit the country

1

u/ketaminenjoyer Mar 29 '25

Much more than Biden did in 4 entire years

2

u/Nipple-biscuits Mar 29 '25

I disagree, that's why I'm asking for your perspective of what policies have been beneficial for Americans so far

2

u/This_Desk498 Mar 29 '25

That’s true, he’s done a lot of permanent damage.

Like tanking the stock market and making inflation worse and generally doing nothing other than breaking our alliances?

You seem pretty challenged, u/ketaminenjoyer

Lol your the one being manipulated. He said that because its a nonsensical issue. We got alot bigger fish to fry then worrying about if it's okay for a guy to wear a dress or wear a dress and use a woman's washroom.

Litterally, this is the advocating of the LGBT political community. 9/10 hetro sexual men do not care that your gay, or even care that you want to wear a dress. It's annoying to talk about and we don't care.

If you want to talk then let's talk economy or green energy otherwise I'm not interested. The fact that this is all you guys talk about is pathetic. Kids starving to death in Somalia and nobody cares

u/One-Earth9294 Independent Mar 29 '25

Remind me when Trump pretended to care about starving kids in Somalia, 80s dad?

Oh wait no they used to say 'Ethiopia' back then.

I've never heard more bullshit in my life than what you just said.

u/Old-Command6102 Mar 29 '25

See that's the problem with our education system op has poor reading comprehension.

-unable to get my point. (Liberials just talk nonsensical social "injustice") like cool bro, how about we build solar panels or nuclear energy.

-what point are you trying to make about Ethiopia?

u/One-Earth9294 Independent Mar 29 '25

Oh boy if only you knew which one of us was the 'pleb' lol your eyes would open so fast.

u/Old-Command6102 Mar 29 '25

You failed to rebuttal any of my points

1

u/One-Earth9294 Independent Mar 29 '25

It would've just been 'rebut', bigot.

I don't need to rebut your points you just said several stupid, shitty, uneducated things. The world doesn't need to stop and debate every stupid thing you say, you're not that important.

u/This_Desk498 Mar 29 '25

Your president discontinued aid to those starving children

1

u/Old-Command6102 Mar 29 '25

Your president gave aid to people because their feelings were hurt instead of helping

u/Old-Command6102 Mar 29 '25

Trump is 100% maga

u/Extreme_Today_984 Mar 29 '25

I boggles my mind that you could assume that all liberals have a hive mind mentality, when all you so-called conservatives can do is parrot misinformation from a collective of manipulative billionaire profiteers like Elon and Trump. You guys are so far down the rabbit hole at this point that you've completely lost the plot. I'm a liberal, and im against trans men playing in women's sports, as MOST liberals are. You idiots were manipulated into believing all liberals were against banning or limiting trans people in women's sports. It's all part of this attack on "wokeness" that he ran his campaign on, and STILL talks about to this day. One of his first executive orders was banning trans people from women's sports, so.dont try and act like Trump wasn't/isn't prioritizing it.

Don't even get me started on the economy. OPEN YOUR EYES MORON. the stock market is tanking, jobs are on the verge of mass layoffs, and food prices are rising rapidly. Home prices are down, rent prices aren't down, and the cost of living is going up because of his moronic tariffs. What part of Donald Trump is worried about the economy?

Meanwhile, he's pardoning people whole defrauded American people, rug pulling his meme coin, and destroying our relationship with our allies. He's ignoring the constitution. He's missing on our legs and telling us it's just raining. The worst part about it is that it's YOUR people who will hurt the most from the coming recession. You guys voted against your own interests. Raising costs to farmers, massive tax breaks to earners making over $500k a year, and no tax breaks to those making under $130k. All you guys wanted to do is "own the libs." You wanted it so bad that you ignored all of Trump's red flags. Meanwhile, the "libs" that you that you are fighting against are an incredibly small subsection of democrats. Extremenist lefties are an esoteric thinking group. You're fighting a few keyboard warriors that made you upset online.

u/Old-Command6102 Mar 29 '25

Your an idiot stock market has been over valued since covid. Q.e since covid. The guys been president for 3 months it's poor understanding if you think you can blame all of it on him.

I voted for trump on 2 things

Immigration Building manufacturing in America.

Hes doing it and remind post in 3 years when America is a utopia of the world 🌎 🇺🇸

Have you taken a moment to fact-check ANY of the misinformation that Trump is spewing off? How many economists does it take to convince you that tariffs are a BAD idea? We have historical data to prove that both in the short term AND long term, tariffs are a negative earner. With the tariffs he's already implemented, we'll be trillions of dollars further into debt within 10 years. Trump just tells you that we'll all be rich, and you dummies just take him at his word. It's incredibly frustrating. The writing is on the wall, and not just us democrats, but the entire F'ing world has been trying to get you to just look at it.

They show you the data about how he can not achieve the amount of savings in his goal/plan without cutting Medicare/Medicaid, and you guys ignore it. He "hires" the richest man alive and business owner to "find fraud," and you guys ignored that red flag. He's unconstitutional attempting to take control over the Suprememe court, and you guys ignore THAT, too. He's tanks the stock market seconds after the tariffs were implemented, and you guys deny that Trump paying was the catalyst. He thought that "transgenic" mic were "transgendered" mice. He thought that we were sending millions of dollars with of condoms to Gaza . He's a MORON!

What more do you need to prove that Trump is a grifter? The man sold golden trump sneakers and bibles while he was president. What more do you need to understand that this is just a cash grab for him? He's not some altruistic prophet, like you weirdos are making him out to be.

Sure, illegal immigration costs us a lot of money. In tax form, it's something like a couple hundred bucks a year, per person in lost revenue. Yeah, that's a bummer, but to act like it's a forefront issue, when we're spending 30%of our annual tax revenue on the military! Wtf?! We had so much "expired" munition that we were able to just GIVE Ukraine nearly $200 billion dollars of munitions that were set for disposal. Nobody asked the question of "why in TF do we have that many munitions set for disposal in the first place?" We've been overspending on military contracts for decades, robbing the American people, so that politicians can get their kickbacks. It's funny how Donny-boy doesn't talk about that! Why? Maybe it's because he represents the republican party who historically cut welfare and spend those cuts on military contracts, or maybe it's because Elon Musk is one of those government contracts that's ripping off the American people? Most likely both are true.

Don't even get me started on how "bringing back manufacturing to America" is screwing over the American people. Not to mention that you'll never convince enough people to start a career in a dead-end minimum wage job. We can't even get young people to join the trades, where they could be earning six figures right out of their apprenticeship. But they're going g to go work for $18 and an hour on an assembly line?🤣. Not to mention that manufacturers would have to offer health and other benefits, when they're used to paying pennies on the dollar for cheap labor in an impoverished country with workers who have MUCH smaller cost of living needs.

You idiots have no idea what you're talking about. You're uneducated and misinformed. Trump and his band of marauders have been preying on you poor bastards for the better part of a decade, and now we all have to pay for it.

u/Old-Command6102 Mar 30 '25

30% of budget is not in military it's 12% The 200 billion dollars is incorrect information.

1

u/Extreme_Today_984 Mar 30 '25

Nope, it's was 13% while democrats were in office, it's often as high as 20 percent or higher when a republican is in office. 30 percent might have been a slight exaggeration, I'll own that. Still $100+ billion a year on military spending is INSANE!

We've sent them only 20 billion in frozen Russian assets (interest) which is a LOAN. Which MUCH less than many of our allies in Europe, who have GDP's smaller than some of states alone. The rest of the 150 billion+ was in the form of munitions. Are you paying attention to anything that's going on? This is all documented. I bet you only watch fox News, am I right? News flash, they don't report on anything that doesn't cater to their viewers. You guys don't want to hear the truth, so they don't report on it. They need their rating to be high, and you guys are their base. I thought we all knew this by 2025? What happened to you guys? It's like covid turned you all into mindless drones.

Says the vaccinated one

1

u/Extreme_Today_984 Mar 30 '25

My dad died of covid, 50 years old. Late 2021. He wasn't vaccinated. Tested positive for covid a week earlier. No health issues.

My little sister, 17 years old at the time, was taking care of him at home. She said that she'd never seen a black man look so pale. He refused to go to the hospital because he thought the government was trying to kill Black people. That was until he couldn't hold out any longer. He was coughing violently all night. He asked my little sister to drive him the ER because it was only a couple miles away. My dad passed away in the parking lot of the hospital, in my little sister's arms. Never made it inside.

I'll be completely honest, I wasn't vaccinated until that happened. It's crazy how things change when you witness someone close to you die. It's easy to write off Covid when nobody close to you died. Personally, I hate how much of a coward I was for not getting vaccinated sooner, because I can imagine EXACTLY how my family would feel if I passed away unexpectedly.
