I donโt know the way he talks about it, makes you wonder. Iโve been saying this for years (and others have)he is not well.

I told ya.
This ๐๐๐ is the result of implementing a program by fiat without vetting the plan & examining all the legal angles as well as kicking around the consequences of the decision. $700 M per month in interest on refunds of the tariffs struck down.
Could be viewed as a violation of the oath they all take. But whatevs.
Itโs how we got here.
Corporate media is going to give you a pro war slant bc they like the visuals and it gives them non stop content with a
Crisis chyron banner. Itโs why they love Trump.
Donโt watch or watch very little or pay it no mind.
Every single thing Trump has done since taking office again is inflationary.
Tax cuts
Tariffs
Increased govt spending
Military action affecting oil/gas prices
And if he gets a rate cut, that will be inflationary as well.
No worries we do need a sarcasm font. Just letting everyone know how implausible it would be for me to consider both parties being the same. Lol.
By the way Iโm kinda an old dude.
Time to coalesce. I didnโt have a vote. I wanted Crockett and I want her to keep going. There is nothing more important right now than supporting the nominee even if he wasnโt your candidate of choice. If for no other reason than the courts depend on it.
Iโm a news junkie since the ๐ฎ๐ท hostage crisis of 79-80 & been a proponent of all the things progressives claim to want & when I lose an election I figure the answer is to โtry harderโ or โtry something differentโ I have spent my adult life making the party different from the GOP maybe I failed.
I was being sarcastic. Iโve been a member of the Democratic Party since 1988. Iโve been a Dem office holder, worked on many Fed, state, local campaigns in NJ & am counsel to local govts & Democrats.
So I am acutely aware of how the parties are different. ๐
But both parties are the same. And theyโll use the same tired line in 2028 too.
Or going backwards. Example: Gaza. By not voting and allowing Trump to win they set the cause of Gaza back decades if not irreversibly altered if the people are corralled to the interior while Trump & friends develop the coastline.
This also happened while you were not paying attention. At least itโs a joint operation with Ecuador. Still no Congressional authorization to use the military.

I wanted Congresswoman Crockett to win. Sheโs not done not by a long shot. Time to coalesce though.
Jiminy cricket
Prob wonโt happen. It could be argued Obama, who was technically a boomer, was Gen-X in spirit.
Also, up until recently the largest voting block of a long time. Everything now can be traced back to that generation. Even when POtUS wasnโt a boomer the were controlling the voting.
I mean come on isnโt it obvious that Putin, Trump & Netanyahu all have an agreement to try to help each other stay in power?
Itโs too bad people donโt see that a vote for Harris would have degraded all three, with Netanyahu being the trickiest to navigate but aid prob would have been cut.
Iran is much bigger and has more firepower than Syria. A civil war there will be years of chaos. Iโm sure that wonโt affect oil prices too much.

In addition to a competence issue. Gee whiz.
This guy is going to run for president?
All I heard was that things were too expensive and the price of eggs, well gas prices are going up and youโll be grateful if itโs only a 10% increase.
I was told we were spending too much $$$ on Ukraine and we should spend that $$$ here meanwhile we just dropped billions of money in bombs on Iran in 48 hours.
Itโs why Iโm not impressed anymore. We spend so much $$$ on this stuff - it better work and it better be effective but Iโd rather have healthcare, education and functioning public transit.
Song of the day. Such a great song itโs still relevant today: open.spotify.com/track/4BP3uh...
Except here Trump is not interested in creating democracies, no weโre back to colonialism where the regime in place is โon our side.โ And we profit.
Everything old is new again.
Ummmโฆ. This is what they said about Iraq.
โQuick.โ
โShock & awe.โ
โGreeted as liberators.โ
โGo shopping for the economy.โ
