The Problem is that the GOP will move the Goal Posts.

"We need the Presidency"
"We need the Senate and the House"
"We need the SCOTUS"
"Oh we have all 3? but we need to control it by even more"
"Oh we have a super majority? well we need to control every seat"

I can understand that sentiment, but the House margin isn't really comfortable to say the GOP has a majority, it's a "majority" in name only and wouldn't even be as big as it is if 3 Democrats didn't die in office.

Also while the majority in the senate is nice, you'd need 60 to do anything of value to avoid the filibuster, the GOP would be close to that 60 if they didn't bungle Arizona and Georgia.

I am not black pilled. I was around during Trump first term and want him to succeed. I am sorry i am not praising Trump constantly like his is the second coming of Christ. I get you people may be new on this ride but Thune and Johnson are no different than McConnell and Paul Ryan. They did the same playbook.

nigga, you literally are saying we need to give the cucks in congress more time. You people are defending Cuck Johnson. Read my posts in the thread. I am and always will be against DeSantis. I was anti-Pam Bondi because of her connections to him and have been proven right. She spends more time on fox news and has made no serious arresst or released any documents she promised.


aside from the Epstein shit this is the major point Elon went off the rails. Tariffs work and need to locked high for most countries.. get rid of all income taxes and build up a manufacturing base. No product we buy should be from another country. 100% sell sufficient.

Funny enough, virtually none of Elon Musk's business ideas are financially viable without the government keeping them afloat. Hyperloop wasn't even technologically viable, what a fantastically stupid idea that was.
The reason I have never trusted Elon as part of MAGA is that he's always been a grifter. Tesla is one of the most overvalued companies in the world right now (still), and has rode its stock price to impossible heights via hype, lies, and unfulfillable promises.

The same is true, to a lesser degree, of SpaceX. While SpaceX has made rocketry more economical than NASA ever could, due mainly due to the Senate not directly managing the internal affairs of government contractors, Elon has made one fantastical promise after another with SpaceX. Wasn't his first manned Mars mission supposed to be this year? Artemis has already orbited the moon; Starship's reusable heat shield remains in the realm of speculative fiction.

I've always been skeptical of Elon and am somewhat relieved to see him exiting stage left.

That is one big thing. Rag on the SLS for being expensive all you fucking want and not reusable and shit. It actually works. It goes up and comes back down in one piece.

The Big Beautiful Bill. All of Trumps campaign promises signed into law. Notably, but not limited to, no tax on Tips, tax cuts, boost to the military, Wall fully funded, and much more.

I will post this again. Call your senators and demand they do not allow No Tax on Tips be removed or cut down to being useless like they did with the No Tax on Social Security.

He had the balls to claim his changes were for 'budget reasons' too.

I am retarded, no doubt, but i believe what i do and want Trump to do what he promised. I kind of love my country and voted for what he promised to save it. Not to have congress slow roll or make abominations of what what promised. See the above. Please call your senators about No Tax on Tips. It will help a lot of Americans who are hurting and are trying to get by that i see every day.
