Last time he told me to take medicine i got a blood clot from his safe and effective vaccine

I thought the shots were 100% safe and effective?

Ironically, it was mostly MAGA supporters who told you all not to take the jab and the 4th round of boosters

Well you were ok with shutting down the government and schools and killing the economy that T is trying to fix. You don’t have to take the medicine but the alternative a continued huge trade deficit continued to grow. You were mad that Biden couldn’t get a bill passed to fix the border and that was the reason you believed the border was in crisis. T showed you that you were wrong by fixing it without any bills. Just admit that you might be wrong and let Trump work. Vietnam and Israel have already come to the table. Trust me that this will hit Canada and Mexico much harder than us. Maybe we can also get them to step up in other areas as well. Others will come around as well

Responses to this from some of the TDS folks is funny because prior to Trump, I think you could pretty much find about 99% agreement among conservatives that pretty much ANY policies designed to genuinely steer us away from the cliff would be a tough pill to swallow at the outset.

I mean shite. If you give my family 10 credit cards with no limits and lets us live however we want.............we're gonna look like the riches people in the area.............then, after 10 years, you suddenly tell us we can't use the credit cards anymore.............we'll suddenly be sucking wind.

Every conservative alive knew this was an issue politically for at least the last 30 years. It's not like this is some new recognition.

Let's be honest here. They've been slipping away from anything we should think of as an ally for a LOOOOONG time.

Mildly friendly parasites? Yeah.

But shite, they're starting to be no better in terms of freedom than places we were willing to bomb not that long ago.

Did the VC invade America? There are many wars in which the superior force decides to quit fighting, not because they are losing, but because they just don’t think it’s worth it. Vietnam, The American Revolution, America’s recent foray into Afghanistan were all wars “lost” by superior forces who certainly could have won had they found the cause more compelling.

If you wanted an actual example the Japanese defeat of Russia in the early 20th century was such, but it is the exception to the rule.

No we invaded their country. Did we win?

That's nice. What economic metric did the NVA have that was strong than the US? They must have had one.

*pro-tip. When you have to fall back to comparing yourself to a hypothetical Kamala presidency, it’s not a “win”.


Ok then, let me rephrase:
So what would be your recommendation to Trump on the deficit, "keep kicking the can down the road" and let the next administration worry about it?
