Wonder if they will remove all of the nazi airplanes... Or maybe that's not considered "improper ideology"No worries. Just relax and go to a museum. Before it's too late....

This was also good... In case anyone was wondering what cars will be affected by tariffs.... Probably more American cars than imports

It’s insane how this guy’s play book has not changed for years.No worries. Just relax and go to a museum. Before it's too late....

Find target, claim they are doing XYZ (in this example, improper ideology, or disregard for founding principles of the country).
Ignore the fact that he has actually been doing said XYZ.
This reminds me of Eliot Spitzer cracking down on prostitution while meeting with escorts.
Isolationism is the point! It's been said repeatedly by various members of this administration. Except they think that 'Murica is the best. WRONG. the US is only #1 at Military spending and probably gun deaths.

Yes, isolation is going to be great. All we need to do is cozy up to Russia for oil and China for goods, and invade Canada for resources. Problem solved!
But, Hunter's laptop.
The market makes no difference to lower income/wealth groups - where he fairs very well.
Uber wealthy don't care about that number a whole lot either, doesn't change a thing.
Gary and I, well let's say we are more sensitive to the current swings.
I'd guess that market correction is seen as a consequence of "fixing what's wrong"
and so what?? ...
He won't mess with SS or Medicare - my guess is in the end, all the "problems" will be fixed - meaning he fixed them and save the day.

He has already messed with SS and Medicare . You just have to follow the anti choice rule book. They drove all the clinics out of business then there were no access for women. Both the SS and Medicare agencies are being forced by DOGE to fire thousands of employees. No employee’s, no service, no checks. AARP is already complaining about wait times…. Guess they are not talking about that on fox.

Meanwhile, his EO's versus the type of large, reputable law firms that never offered most of tRUMP''s appointed attorneys, when they graduated from their third tier law schools, are in violation of the 1st, 5th, and 6th amendments.
Check the Wikipedia on these idiots.

i'm not getting the connection -
also, I thought they were blocked - and IF they fired...the results. I'm 9 months away!
there is probably a ton of waste - why do people call? - it is so complicated that they can't figure it out without talking to a pro.
If he makes it more simple, and cuts down on the need to call - that would be a win.
wiki not trusted.
but I do see him using EO against his perceived enemies, or people that "screwed him"
SS has a 3% operating cost. Republicans think government is broken, people vote them into power and they brake it.
