    I mean, Trump is a LOT of things, but he is also doing exactly what he said he would do. Why do they suddenly have a problem with an administration based ENTIRELY on racism, greed and a total misunderstanding of economics and military strategy led by a genuine mentally disabled person. This is EXACTLY what they asked for.

        This is it exactly. They were fine with brown people being hurt but can’t look past a nice white lady being shot in the face over someone’s ego.

      Ehh, he didn’t give the $2000 tariff credit

      Agree in spirit though. The 90% of what he’s doing was very predictable at voting time, with the remaining 10% being worse than expected somehow

      No, he’s not, and that’s why people are pissed.

      He hasn’t done anything meaningful to address inflation or the cost of living, and people’s living situations have gotten significantly worse in a short amount of time. And this is in a time where he’s promised to rebuild Venezuela’s infrastructure and sent 40 billion in stimulus to Argentina.

      Further, his promise on immigration was a mass deportation of criminal illegal immigrants, not refugees, green card holders, de-naturalization, and certainly not invasions of courts, kids schools, churches, and most definitely not summary executions of US citizens.

      Very important distinctions to be made here. People are pissed and that’s almost certainly going to be reflected in the 2026 elections.
