His base is less able to afford the price increases of his reckless trade wars...his MAGA suckers are gluttons for punishment.

I learned that most people arent actually sentient.
Its just feelings and emotions doing all the work.

Fox doesn't deal in news, they sell outrage.

Remember when the right went fucking crazy because Michelle Obama wore a dress that showed her arms?
Trump is like an abusive husband who beats his wife, the American people, and the people think they deserve it and ask for more

Maybe Americans like being abused and violated. That explains their choices for presidents.

No shit, anger and a feeling of impending doom is the appropriate response when you are watching your country descend into fascism.

eh, there's worse things than fascism.

Trump literally created an alternative reality in the heads of his supporters where they think Trump is a good Christian and a very innocent man.
You really dont know what to admire more, the amount of Trump's sins or the inability of his supporters to even see them.

Yes. I guess that makes it okay to be a fascist.
It's a way better economic policy to export. All manufacturing to foreign countries. Sure it will mean nobody has jobs in America, but at least China has cheap prices.
The president should be a cuck and have America, just bend over for everyone.

@WyIted
If Americans wanted American goods, they would buy American goods.
You are literally voting in a president because he will prevent you from buying foreign goods. Wouldnt it be more simple to... I dont know.... just buy American goods?

Unemployment reached record lows offer the last 4 years
but at least China has cheap prices.The president should be a cuck and have America, just bend over for everyone.
Cheap prices is how those people with and without jobs are able to afford things. That's also literally why Americans voted for Trump, because he was supposedly going to lower them. Yet he's doing the exact opposite. Will be interesting to see what alternative reality MAGA creates to resolve that cognitive dissonance.

The tariffs on Mexico worked, they are committing 18000 troops to the border.

Trump caved and suspended tariffs for both Mexico and Canada after reading how they would retaliate.

Canada said they'd Crack down on drug flow so he relented. They were already doing that so not much changed. Total drugs from Canada r a fraction of 1 percent so it don't change much. Canadians tried to negotiate before the tariffs but trump wouldn't. It makes us out to be an unreliable to our biggest allie. Considering not much changed and trump was under huge pressure politically to back off, yes, trump caved.
