I'm not gonna watch this video obviously but it's been funny watching trump completely bail on every idea that he ran on that his base loved 8 months ago. Flyguy said it himself... He was refreshingly honest in his post!

But guess what? A certain, very high percentage of his base has undying loyalty to him and don't really care about any actual issues. They just like who he is.

just shocking that the only thing that Trump actually cares about is his own financial and political benefit, and could give a fuck about the good of the country.

He did not completely bail on every idea. He has relented in execution prematurely, or so it appears.

Deportations still happening.

Tariffs still implemented. Trade deficit still improved. Culture wars are being won. Systemic discrimination against white people being erased. Healthcare recommendations/research getting overhauled. He just needs to commit to the bit and quit caring about being liked by everyone.
 
unlimited debt increases here we come!
Funny you never cared when a democrat was in power.

BTW, CBO is devoid of reputability. Completely hogwash reports using laughable assumptions. Anyone quoting it, including Elon, Paul, Massie etc is just being a fool on the subject.

The history of debt increases isn't close to arguable. GOP presidents always incur far more debt than Dem presidents, and it's not even close.

Trump had the biggest 4yr increase in the debt his first time around, but will easily surpass that record this time.

But hey, as long as you guys get to kick some tax-paying farmers and laborers out of the country, it's worth it.

Honestly I appreciate your honesty. You sort of lost either way the moment I asked the question. Either you praise everything he does and look like a cuck or you acknowledge the endless stream betrayal in less than a year of power. I'm glad you chose option B, full respect to you.
 
Trump goosed the trade deficit in Jan Feb and March with his tariff threats. Businesses stocked inventories.

The deficit was around historical norms in April, when trade declined because of overstocked inventories.

The notion that you can materially upend global supply chains in 3 months so hilariously idiotic.
