Reminder that none of this will matter when the next scamdemic inevitably hits and whoever runs as the Dem candidate in 2028 "wins".

Everything Trump has done the past few months and everything he will do for the remainder of his term as the final Republican and non-Marxist president don't mean shit anymore. Fauci already spoiled the ending. It's beyond fucking over. Total Fauci Victory.
Why can't trump organize a counter scamdemic and counter rigged election. As you stated it is IMPOSSIBLE to counter so fauci won't be able to stop it.

Now when you say some bullshit about ummm acskulally fauci can counter using secret move x. Why can't trump do that same secret move to counter then impossible to block attack?

I really, really don't think that anyone except the most deranged will put up with another scamdemic lockdown situation. I know for a fact that, if they try this again, I will become ungovernable.
 
What is your opinion on these migrants being deported to the El Salvador prison despite having no criminal record?

I know users here are right leaning and don't believe they should be here in the first place but from an optics perspective this isn't great for Trump and anti immigrant politics in the US if leftists are able to effectively weaponize it. Deporting them is one thing (I'm not sure on the mechanics of it but surely it can be done without sending them to El Salvador) but sending them to the prison in El Salvador on accusations of being gang members is something that can be easily exploited and is immoral.
if their own country wont take them back, what else are we going to do with them?
 
The thing I keep seeing people saying is "b-but bloompf will get btfo'd in the midterms!!!" As if shifting the goalposts will work. First of all, nothing ever happens, and that means impeachment defo won't happen regardless of if a blowout happens. If they couldn't nail him for J6 I'm convinced he's invincible to legal trouble. Second, look at the tariffs and the global impact it's made. He didn't need congress to do that. You could have a Democrat House and Senate and he'd still be able to make moves like this. I still don't think they understand just how fucked they are.
 
I'm an old fart and was living in the rust belt in the early 90s. I saw the factories close, one by one. All those jobs lost. I also remember the crash of 2008 and people I personally knew lost a lot of money. Thing is--if you're a boomer close to retirement, you lived through all that plus a bunch of other government failures/overreach/theft/betrayal. If you didn't diversify, protect your assets, and pay attention to the world around you, that's on you not the rest of us.
This accompanied by lowest illegal migration in record history, you are building yourself a new era of golden age for American workers.
America's biggest hype man, when are you emigrating?
This is probably the biggest gamble the United States has done for itself since the Cuban Missile Crisis, when the fate of humanity was quite literally on its hands, a lot of things really have to go right in the 4 years trump is in office, and whatever happens after he is done, it really looks like we either successfully re-industrialize, which mind you, has never happened before, so we are in uncharted territory, or we get another Great Depression.

Hectic times we are living in, Fuck.
We were barreling toward a massive depression anyway. Why not disrupt and try to stave it off, or even stop it? Industrialization is only a blip on the time continuum, which is why re-industrializing has never happened before. Now is the prime time to do it, not when the middle class is gone, a handful of elites are in charge and have burned everything down, and we have to rebuild from scratch.
I find it funny that everybody either thinks we're going to do Soviet jobs programs with the factories or just let everything run wild unsupervised.
The brainwashing and programming has worked too well.

It's CBS/60 Minutes. I quit taking them seriously when they kept insisting Hunter's laptop was fake. They've continued sliding into the propaganda mud at breakneck speed. If there are at least four other credible, non-anonymous sources to back up this claim , I might give it a second thought.

60 Minutes has been caught lying multiple times. It used to be reputable, but has since jumped the shark in a pathetic attempt to own the Angry Orange.
 
I can't understand it. What is the deal with these boomers? Can someone please explain to me?
2 things:

1. They worship cable news. They literally watch it every moment they can and trust it unquestioningly

2. They love money, literally more than their own children. If the TV says Elon and Trump are cutting their social security benefits or if the stock market drops and threatens their retirement they will often LITERALLY resort to violence (look at how many of the "peaceful" Tesla protestors are old)
 
For a long time I’ve loved it in a pained, cringing kind of way, full of “yeah, but”

Today I love it unreservedly, she’s my ride or die
I've come to realize that despite her flaws, America will always be one of a kind and there will only ever be one America. I've also realized there is no other place in the world for someone like me except America, if she rides high I'll cherish it, if she sinks then I'll go down with the ship. I love my country and I thank God for making me an American.

They wanted to push the collapse off until just after they died.

Does anyone remember the 1999 Battle for Seattle, the OG black bloc protests against the WTO?

Trump would be a fucking hero to those guys
 
It's where all the illegals go to steal shit and then start drunken fights, which is why there are emergency call boxes outside of them. Walmart sucks. Go to literally any other store.
I never got the point of them unless that's literally all there is in your area. A general retailer is always going to be worse than a specialized one, even if they are an "upscale" walmart I still won't use a target either. Grocers, hardware stores, etc. all have superior quality and choice without being much more expensive.

I will gladly drive further and spend more money to avoid going inside of a Walmart. They are always filled with the trashiest people and the lowest-quality products.
