Now that the dust has settled, I just have to say - while I was pulling for Trump, anyone who says they had him sweeping both houses AND the popular vote on their bingo card is full of shit.

Teflon Don pulled a Miracle. Here’s hoping he doesn’t fuck it up - if solely so I can watch Trudy seethe up here in Leafistan before he’s ousted (hopefully. I can see retards voting him back in to spite you fuckers)

I was pretty confident.

I am on board with taking money away from libtards. However I think the 'transparency' angle is a bad idea. These libtards will fight you tooth and nail for every penny. They will use the media and everything they can muster to drag out the budget cuts. Remember we are on a time limit. Only 4 years, really only 2 if you think about mid-term elections.

I look at it as a way to get young men involved to really see how much bullshit their government is spending. Watch there be Tiktok challenges where dudes challenge themselves to find the worst case of money spending in like 20 min.

So while each budget cut will be a tooth and nail fight each a whole generation of young men will now know how to look, find, and kill this crap.

Still nowhere near as bad as Cheney shooting his friend in the face.

Transparency is always good, both for individual education and wider awareness. It allows anyone who cares to go and become intimately involved in whatevers going on from the sidelines, without forcing anyone to do so. And it only takes a few autists making a mini career out of chronicling it to make a lot of lesser autists reasonably well informed on the subject, and that's a good thing.

I mean they're already trying to kill him, why not?

There's layers to it. It goes from "we will get a dude from a rooftop to take potshots" to "we are going to fly an apache to launch missiles at you, mask off." And you reach the second part trying to dismantle the FBI.

If that happens then Barron Trump will go into the desert and unite the mexicans in a global jihad to install himself as god-emperor of the world.

Trump and Biden are sat together live and all I can hear is literal fag press yelling questions and interrupting the meeting. Shut the fuck up you weird losers, it's soy screeching at it's worse like toddlers. I hope Trump kicks out all of these loser mainstream press out of the white house when he becomes President.

The worst was this loud soy gay guy screeching "MRRR PRESIDENTT?? MRRRRRR PRESIDENNT??" fucking shrill ass voice makes me want to punch them multiple times.
These people have got so hysteric and so out of touch, they need to all lose their jobs. Not an ounce of decency or patience so instead of one or two questions being answered they got 0 because all of them are trying to get the "epic gotcha question" all at the same time.

You can't tell me Joe wasn't happy as fuck to be sitting beside Trump instead of Kumala. Dark Brandon did it, reddit!

There are so many issues with this.
A country should try to encourage companies to stay and manufacture in the domestic market; pure import is not good. I agree, but tariffs are not going to fix this.

If tariffs are enacted, they will only limit American trade and likely lower revenue over time. Some manufacturing will rise in the US, but every time that happens, it lowers the revenue from the tariffs, so then what?

Tariffs have never been primarily about revenues in the developed world for decades, even during Trump's first term they were targeted towards shifting terms of trade and negotiation in trade settlements.

Then, there is the issue of the cost of individual parts, especially from low-overhead products. Takes screws, for example, right now you can get them cheap and in bulk from China and Germany at a low price. While you can make the same screws in the US, the issue is now that the external competitors are gone, and US firms have fewer options for the resources they need to make them, so the price will go up as there is less competition in the market.

Right now, there is massive competition within the market, so if German screws are too expensive, I can buy American screws or Chinese.

This is an extremely basic and flawed conception of how trade actually works. It isn't simply there are existing prices and trade regulation only changes these existing prices, they exist in an greater environment. When free trade is in effect, the industries where a country has greater factor production benefits at the expense of those where the country is less competitive (Stolper–Samuelson). In addition, the decrease in a country's factor endowment magnifies it in decreasing output (Rybczynski). Or, in other words, the screw industry is noncompetitive in the first place because trade liberalization benefited certain industries while stymieing others in the United States (service vs manufacture). As manufacturing declined, it is further exacerbated by the decreasing factor endowment making it more and more noncompetitive.

Old School Bill Nye was fantastic. My siblings and I loved the show as kids, and I remember on "video tape days" at school, the teachers would play one or two episodes for the students.

He really has fallen hard. He used to be a very good entertainer for kids, and now he's just a paid shill for political agendas. He's a piece of shit now.

As soon as Bill Nye uploaded this video (he deleted the original) that's when I knew this was the start of his downfall. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtJFb_P2j48&ab_channel=goeiecool9999

He sees into your soul, he knows you tried to betray him, he will not forget:

Joepedo tries to take up space in the room but Trump's haki is so strong he forces Joepedo to lean in. The man who doesn't have to reach has the power.

Joe looks genuinely happy Trump is back. It’s time to break out the 2 scoops.

That fire is amazing. I am going to start building my fires like that but I cannot help but think it will increase the need to have the chimney cleaned. That is a power fire.

You have a fire like that going and people are going to be cozy af.

Man, it must have been cathartic for Joe to finally stick all those knives in the DNC's back as a final fuck you. He certainly isn't a friend to Trump or MAGA, but you don't get to where he is without knowing where a few skeletons is buried.

No. Bad. Enough with this losing with dignity mentality. You are already assuming that we lose seats in the next election and it hasn't happened yet. These people have already proven themselves unpopular. We need to report on our own victories, loud as we possibly can, because the news media fucking certainly won't.

I could never be in politics. I could not control my urge to tell someone who called me Hitler and my supporters garbage to go kill themselves to their face.

I disagree, because the decades (years?)-long work between the US and Canada for Keystone XL is gone and won't come back due to Warren Buffet leaning on Biden. The issue here is, how can we prevent another Keystone? How do we prevent (I don't want to say it, but it's true) Dems from halting oil companies when they start a 3-6 year venture, causing them to lose all that time and money?

As a long time investor in TC Energy (and their new spinoff Southbow, I can say there are some rumblings that it might be revived but it will take a LOT of money, that company has been screwed by permits being approved/revoked multiple times.

Long story short: they would need a guaranteed approval that lasts long enough to actually finish construction. So it depends what happens to the regulatory regime. If reformed: maybe? But hard no in current form.

We will have to do our part and mulch Trudeau, which is our plan at the earliest opportunity.

Cheap energy from Canada would help fuel the American boom, hope we get it to you slightly more efficiently than a bucket brigade from Fort McMurray.

Trump's little head tick to the screaming reporters, followed by both of them smirking, is very cute.

It feels like he's back to being drugged-up zombie Joe... I'd have rather the two of them met with him drawing on his Dank Brandon energy from the congratulation speech.
