Any and all criticisms directed at our lord king emperor Trump are viewed as dissent, and the dissent itself becomes “proof” of TDS.
There is no way around it.
Accept your fate and move on


Thanks. Good advice. It's just hard to believe that people who knew Clinton was grifting off the presidency can't see that Trump isn't doing the same thing.

Good to see the great uniter in fine form this morning.


I have no need to unify with leftists and democrats..

I want to beat them down, defeat them, not unite with them. Unification will never happen.

How would Trump's attempt at unifying look?

Pass an EO to allow abortion up to 1 year after birth? Is that what he should do? Import 20,000,000 immigrants? What?

Shitcoin scam that netted the Trumps over a billion

Kazak mining deal that was straight pay-for-play like Burisma

Drone company deal on the back of Trump's defense policies

Jr trading stocks for himself and Trump's portfolio just like Pelosi

Private club selling access

Is that enough?
Selling early access to Trumps TS posts with the understanding that the buyer will be able to use that info to play the markets.

Dems take those seats then those actions would have happened anyway, as they have since 2015, with them going nuts during the 4 years he wasn’t president.


Jeffries has already come out and said this is what they intend to do and they are already preparing for it....They will hammer Trump over all of this all the while stressing the affordability crisis. That will be the messaging over the next two years. I.E. Trump is an out of touch billionaire whose family has been engaged in scandalous corruption while the average Joe is struggling etc. etc. Never mind that Trump's policies have done more to lift everyone's boats and he has to reverse years of growth killing bad polices that Obama/Biden left us. My point is Trump's family dealings are going to open window for the Dems that they can use. The good news the Dems are such a shite show, have become so radicalized, and have no good candidates on deck I don't think it's enough to do serious damage. It's an unforced error on Trump's part but he and his family are a bunch of greedy fricks so they can't help themselves.

I’ll take a self promoting narcissist that puts his every effort in making things better and claiming that limelight over any and all DS characters. The ranting and screaming of leftists are but a added bonus

What's deranged about being responsive and courteous? Someone asked for evidence. I supplied it.

Still not a fan of our government picking winners and losers and using our tax dollars to do it.
I hated when the Clinton’s, Obama, Biden etal gave tax breaks to companies and I hate when trump outright buys interests in the private sector.

Imagine having to compete with a company that has the government investing in it to keep it afloat…. Not fair whatsoever.and kinda socialist.

Trump: His wealth surge reflects pre-existing business holdings and post-term earnings


This is true. All the gains from the last few years have come from property development and traditional investing and definitely not from World Liberty Financial and Trump Coin.

Barack Obama’s net worth grew by approximately $10–11 million during his two terms (2009–2017), rising from roughly $1.3 million to about $12.2 million as he left office. In contrast, Donald Trump’s net worth is reported to have nearly tripled during his second term, reaching approximately $6.5 billion.
I agree with the overall point, but there’s a little numerical tomfoolery in the presentation. By these figures, Obama’s net worth didn’t just triple; it grew more than ninefold. Giving Obama’s increase in dollars and Trump’s as a multiplier selectively frames the comparison. The dollar amounts and time involved matter, but use the same yardstick for both. A valid point doesn’t need that kind of repackaging.

You're right. I took the lazy way out and just posted an AI summary that focused more on the percentage increase than the raw numbers.

The strongest case is the intersection of Trump's private crypto businesses with federal policy.

The argument is unusually concrete because it involves a direct financial interest, a business whose value is affected by government policy, and presidential actions affecting that industry.


The problem with this argument is that Trump actually ran on making crypto great. He told everyone what was going to happen. Your problem is that Trump made money.

This is not the same as Pelosi taking a stake in Visa and then passing legislation that benefits the card companies over the consumers.

Trump said he was running on a policy. Many of his constituents wanted the policy. Trump made money on the policy.

Why should I be upset that Trump made money in the free market by implementing a policy he campaigned on and that I supported?

If you're going to be upset just because a politician isn't altruistic, you won't have time for anything else.

I vote for politicians to implement policies I want. I'm not going to exchange good policies for bad just because a politician took an advantage that wasn't even at the taxpayers' expense. Sometimes, you need to be practical instead of idealistic. Sometimes, you need to appreciate what you have.
