Dude, he won the highest office in the world a second time against the most impossible odds ever. You can let failures destroy you, or you can let them make you stronger. No?
If anything, it shows the limits of the democratic electoral process. And I'm not just talking about Trump; plenty of dictators were first elected by the people.
Yeah. There's an example for everything in history. There's plenty more that were elected that weren't dictators. Right? Your point?
Trump Slashes Public Debt Growth by 92% with Business Boom and Musk-Led Efficiency Drive May 12, 2025 Debt held by the public has grown just $37 billion under Trump, compared to nearly $480 billion during the same 2024 period under Biden. By yourNEWS Media Newsroom President Donald Trump has cut the growth of the U.S. national debt by more than 90% since returning to office, according to a report from the Washington Examiner. Debt held by the public—debt owed to outside investors such as pension funds, mutual funds, banks, and foreign governments—has increased by just $37.2 billion since Inauguration Day. That marks a dramatic slowdown compared to the same time frame in 2024, when debt held by the public rose by $478.4 billion under President Joe Biden. “From Jan. 22, 2024, to May 6, 2024, debt held by the public rose by $478,402,286,425.95,” the Examiner reported. “From Inauguration Day to May 5 [2025], debt held by the public rose by $37,238,323,646.66.” The analysis clarifies that comparing this timeframe avoids skewed numbers caused by April tax receipts and provides a more accurate contrast in fiscal performance. _____________________________________ -Hostages freed. -India/Pakistan peace for now. -Market exploded up on China deal. -Putin and Zelenski might get in the same room to end the slaughter. -Illegal border crossings down 99.8% -Saudi on deck to invest a revised amount of $1T in the U.S.... plus huge arms deals. -A free AF1 747 courtesy of the govt of Qatar. (I wouldn't trust it without ripping out every and all element of anything electronic) -Executive order to build homes for vets, using money allocated for illegals.... -All that and today a new executive order to drive down rx drug prices. Face it. This guy did more last weekend than Joe did in 4 flippin' years. But it doesn't matter. TDS is a sickness that apparently has no cure. Is what it is. Bigger question though... what will the next week of the Trump Administration bring?! Right now, if things continue like this... there could be a huge red wave in 2026.
Ummm Dead Rev Moon's Bird Cage DC paper as usual is spouting nonsense as it has since being founded decades ago with money grifted from airport travelers:- https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/GFDEBTN And I notice the Treasury Dept's Debt to the Penny website is lol frozen. Gee ya think DOhhhhhGE might have something to do with that? And the red wave might be blood of victims of rampaging MAGA's
When a system is flawed usually efforts are made to improve it, either before or after elections. The US has always flaunted its democracy to the world. Imagine how shocked the world is with the speed at which authoritarianism took over.
Well... text me when that happens. Pretty sure we'll see 2026 mid-term elections.... and 2028 Presidential elections. So lets let democracy do it's thing and refrain from prognosticating future events.... that is the realm of MSNBC and the likes. They proclaim it nightly... ....And so far, they are batting absolute ZERO.
Hey Ted! You know I love ya.... but do you have an excerpt from a Congressional Bill that validates this assertion? It's beyond me.... but I will certainly read a government document that supports your argument. This whole "tax cuts for billionaires" (imo) has become some kind of --->(say it enough and they'll believe it)---> brainwashing mantra that I hear daily. If it's true... ok. But give me a link to the exact excerpt in the Bill before Congress and we'll discuss it.
