i like massie and agree with him on pretty much everything, but his idealism and philosophy of having to get everything fixed perfectly immediately instead of a realistic plan of getting things fixed piece by piece is gonna ensure nothing ever gets fixed at all.
His biggest flaw as a politician is letting perfection be the enemy of good. He's just one man though and I'm not sure if he is willing to be a dissent voter in situations where he is actually critically needed to pass some kind of Republican-backed legislation. Massie voting "nay" in a scenario like that that will be an actual problem, until then let him have his principles.
 
just saw this today, is Scott Bessent retarded? just standard ivory tower hubris? https://www.yahoo.com/news/u-treasury-secretary-access-cheap-210653024.html
In that 1 minute clip put out by the "Gulf of America denying" AP, Scott Bessent says:
“Access to cheap goods is not the essence of the American Dream. The American Dream is rooted in the concept that any citizen can achieve prosperity, upward mobility, and economic security. For too long, the designers of multilateral trade deals have lost sight of this. International economic relations that do not work for the American people must be re-examined.

This is what tariffs are designed to address – leveling the playing field such that the international trading system begins to reward ingenuity, security, rule of law, and stability, not wage suppression, currency manipulation, intellectual property theft, non-tariff barriers and draconian regulations. To the extent that another country's practices harm our own economy and people the United States will respond. This is the America First Trade Policy.”

The transcript to the full speech can be found here: https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0045 (Archive)
That doesn't sound retarded to me. "Prosperity, upward mobility, and economic security" sounds wonderful! I will gladly take prosperity, upward mobility, and economic security in exchange for Temu, Aliexpress, Harbor Freight, etc.
Oh no! That image shared by THE Maegan Vazquez... of a Trump truth... of a link to a Charlie Kirk article... Titled:
CHARLIE KIRK: Shut Up About Egg Prices — Trump Is Saving Consumers Millions
Democrats are positively giddy about the price of eggs.
...has ended the honey moon.

Thanks @Clobber3 for bringing that to my attention. What do you think was the most interesting part of the Charlie Kirk article?
maybe, but cheap chinesium will always be preferable to expensive chinesium.
America must do everything in its power to keep chinesium cheap, because that will always be preferable to expensive chinesium. No sacrifice too large. Deindustrialize America? Yes, if it keeps chinesium cheap. Fentanyl killing swaths of Americans? Worth it for cheap chinesium. Lead and heavy metals in children's toys? As long as the chinesium is cheap.

Keep Chinesium Cheap Forever
 
Trump has basically just threatened war with Iran
Iran doesn’t agree to a nuclear prohibition deal soon America may “have to go in militarily.”
Also nigger your the reason they don't want to agree to a nuclear deal because you tore up the last one. Once again why do Trump supports take no issue with a full war with Iran but get so mad at a few billion to Ukraine.

Also he just pissed off America's allies making it even harder for America and they can't offload the work onto them.

The reason the Jews let Trump win is because they were desperate knowing that their grip on the world is loosening.

Words have meaning and other countries take threats like this seriously.

Also the economy is a disaster right now, he campaigned on fixing it.

Apparently some Ukraine protesters decided to spend their Saturday harassing Vance and his 3 year old today.
“Nearly all of them agreed.”
“Mostly respectful conversation.”

Those that won’t agree and those that won’t understand the need to be respectful in the presence of a literal toddler should be fucking shot in the town square. No I am not being hyperbolic, what the actual fuck is wrong with people.

People who feel emboldened to harass a man and his little girl on their Saturday morning walk are incompatible with society. Ship them directly to the frontlines in Ukraine since that’s clearly so important to them.

Maybe these people should put their money where their mouth is and get on a plane for Kiev and pick up a rifle. But we all know they never will, they'll just advocate for people like you and me to be abducted by the US government so we can be shipped off to Eastern Europe to be used as shrapnel and bullet sponges.
 
- some shit from the literal 80's
- one time moving cloth to look at a tattoo (which she didn't even qualify as assault herself)
- one time a pickup went poorly which apparently "made her quit" (lol wtf)
- trying to score while drunk

getting annoyed by science negro is one thing, but this is probably one of the most retarded attempts at #metoo I've seen

In addition to those poorest excuses of "sexual assault" I've seen, you're supposed to #metoo White men/White-passing Jews. Neil "Science Nig" Degrass Tyson can play the race card and it looks like it was successful.

You know why are you even here, like nothing that trump or anyone will do will make you happy, and clearly you just want to be miserable so why are you even still alive, you believe the at nothing will get better so why don't you just kill yourself and spare of your bullshit. No genuinely of you blelive that nothing will get better then why don't you just kill yourself already?
 
It does matter because it shows that Iran is actively hostile to the US. Them getting nukes would be an absolute nightmare and potentially put even more Americans lives at stake in the long run.
This ^ Iran has been an active problem for the US since the Shar was overthrown

Iran is actively hostile to Israel, and vice versa.

The Norks hate Uncle Sam and have nukes as well.

Or Pakistan, which has stronger anti-American sentiment than Iran.
 
I was going to screencap a bunch of comments, but there's too much. Polish person makes a thread saying, "Actually we don't want a war with Russia. Westerners have become war obsessed." The whole thread is 90% "Oh sweetie, but you do."

Most insane Reddit thread I've seen in a while, and I'm shocked it was upvoted in the first place. Reddit bots usually downvote anything anti-war these days. Going to include a screencap. The whole thread is something to behold.

Everyone is anti war until they can suddenly gain something from it.
 
Trump should stay out of Iran. There's a highly militarized population of 70 million, a mountainous terrain but most importantly, Shia Muslims aren't committing terrorist attacks in the West. Al Qaeda, the Muslim Brotherhood and ISIS are(all Sunni). Ukraine has fucked with the first Trump presidency and his candidacy far more and he's not looking to bomb them, just reduce some not even all of their aid. I'm not saying Iran should be an ally or something but invading it would be absolutely pointless and disastrous.
 
the fact he is willing to spend billions of dollars and millions of lives because Iranian super hackers leaked stuff to Kamala (which didn't even matter because he won the election) is very telling.

I don't want American soldiers and Iranian civilians to die because Trump got his feelings hurt, politicians are supposed to have a thick skin Trump is acting like a woman.

I keep hearing about this art of the deal because it's worked so great the las trillion times he tried it.

The Abraham accords fell through when Israel had a spergout after October 7th

Trump tore up the Iranian nuclear deal was unable to secure a new one and Iran has just said they will never accept another one because of this.

Ukraine and Russia hasn't changed and both sides are pissed at Trump's flip flopping.

Trump gave away what little trade leverage he had against chain for some fucking soy bean imports.

The economy is in free fall, how is this not a rebrand of the trust the plan patriots are in control Q glowie larp ?
As I stated upthread, you're an ESL faggot who larps as an American, allowing everyone here to easily see through your bullshit. Thanks for further proving me correct.
