- Welfare through tariff checks that "high earners" who probably funded the checks will be left out of

- 50-year mortgage short cut to try to make homes affordable

- H1Bs are more qualified than you are to hand out Zyn packets at the gas station

- 600K Chinese students can stay and keep liberal universities funded

- No need to fix the ACA. We will just send out inflationary-causing checks to everyone!

- Hosts former Al-Qaeda Leader Ahmed al-Sharaa at White House

- You’re not really struggling financially, the stock market is doing great

- Check out my new gold-plating in the Oval Office


I bet Roosevelt wished he’d known we could just import jeets from India during WWII to build planes instead of training housewives. There was no need for “Rosie the Riveter”

Midterms are effectively going to end Trumps presidency at this rate.

Charlie Kirk is greatly missed especially in times like these. He was the go-between between the Trump administration and the American conservative populace.

Trump effectively ended his own Presidency the past few weeks through unforced errors

Trump is reeling.

I think all the potential issues with relying on populism and the unlikely/unrelated groups he brought together under his tent are showing they're not compatible.

There are three main groups staking their claim, that I can see, who are causing the conflict that he can't control anymore.

1. Younger, educated professionals who thought that his populism (which was aimed at the lower class types) included them. They are realizing that they were not included in Trump's plans, and they were just part of the likely traditional GOP cohort Trump expected to get automatically. They are realizing they are not part of his policy goals and you see the black pill-type responses on here.

2. The older, Israel-supporting neocons are staking their claim to MAGA. Make no mistake, these people cannot help themselves when they feel their side is in power and always show their true colors. There is obviously a LARGE overlap with the Evangelicals, who were the OG neocons and Israel supporters under GWB.

3. This is the one I didn't really conceptualize until yesterday, but the grifter content creator class is also a major part of this. Trump's reeling is going to give them more and more content from which to sell to their prechosen niche audiences. In true MAGA culture form, policy, sincerely-held principles, etc. are not necessary.

I honestly don’t think he really cares as long as 34 GOP senators keep him from being removed from office.

Imagine yelling Panican while the admin you voted for is openly shitting on you and giving you the opposite of what you voted for. Low IQ move.

You can keep shouting Panican when the Jeets are here and all you have left is enough from your tariff stimmy to buy a Costco hot dog.

The administration has been a fricking train wreck. This country is fricked. We are just going to be fricked a little slower than if Kamala was president.

I'm in none of the groups you mentioned, so I get left out.

I switched from R to Independent about 6 years ago. I guess it's time to start voting like one.

I haven't really put much thought into this, but it wouldn't shock me if this was a part of this. Trump doesn't have good advisors and he's not manufacturing any ideas or policies himself, obviously. Maybe CK was the guy giving advice on how to keep the various groups in check, b/c he's clearly smarter and more in tune with both politics and the population than anyone in the Trump admin.

Anyone who frequently uses the term PANICAN or TDS is a low IQ individual that is unable to discuss any policy
