Yes he loves the working class
LOL, that’s what he made you believe the first time he ran, and you guys fell for it hook line and sinker, got fucked, forgot, and fell for it again.
Once elected there was a series of betrayals of working people.
In his first term his primary accomplishment was to cut taxes for the rich, boasting that he would make his wealthy friends “a lot richer”. He also restricted the collective bargaining rights of unions, enacted a rule denying overtime pay to millions of low-wage workers, and enacted a rule allowing employers to pocket workers’ tips.
He took billions out of workers’ pockets by weakening or abandoning regulations that protect workers’ pay and safety, blocked workers from access to the courts by allowing mandatory arbitration clauses in employment contracts and repeatedly tried to take affordable health care away from millions of working people. He reduced the number of workers receiving health insurance by three million during his first term.
He opposed any increase in the minimum wage, proposed a trillion dollars in funding cuts to Medicare and Medicaid, and shut down the federal government for 35 days, forcing about 800,000 federal workers and more than 1 million contract workers to go more than a month without pay.
AFL-CIO President Liz Shuler said, “The idea that Donald Trump has ever, or will ever, care about working people is demonstrably false.”
And now MAGA idiots have again swallowed his BS, they foolishly believed “he loves the working class” again, and reelected this lying charlatan so he and his rich friends could turn this country into an oligarchy on the backs of working people.
MAGA is a bad joke, gullible and stupid, and now Trump and his billionaire friends get to fleece the working class again.

The first rule of MAGA stupidity: If it's on the internet, it must be true.No this isn't true. It's more like if every single news organizations on the Internet collectively agrees on something on both sides of the political aisle, it's probably true but in this case you also have public statements you can literally go and watch on YouTube. Trump has a sit-down with the mayor on the area and you can watch that

praying for prices to drop back down to the levels they were under Biden.What'shisname left office last month with inflation still at a rate that for commodity average, is still over 20%. higher than when What'shisname took office in 2021, when inflation rate was 1.4%.
Yeah, that's how the economy works, inflation results from a strong economy, it was low when Biden took office because Trump brought us the greatest economic collapse since the great depression. Trump is one of only two Presidents in history to have fewer people working when he left office than when he went in, 2.7 million fewer people had jobs, 3 million fewer had health insurance. Fewer people working means less demand for products, so low inflation, and a trade war does not bring prices down.
You missed my point, yes, inflation is bad, and Trump said he would bring it down, his reckless trade war will cause inflation to explode, and increase unemployment, again.
Yeah, but there's the trade deficit, yeah, and the trade deficit went up 36% in Trump's first term.
OK, but there's all that illegal immigration: In Trump's first term, illegal immigration went up 14%, Trump deported fewer illegal immigrants than Obama or Biden, Obama deported more than any other president. Obama placed a particular focus on “threats to national security, border security and public safety” by targeting convicted criminals, in 2015, 91 percent of people removed by deportation orders had criminal convictions. Trump overturned this criminal prioritization measure as soon as he entered office, just 41 percent of deportations by removal order were directed at convicted criminals in 2019.
But what about the budget deficit: The national debt held by the public went up, from $14.4 trillion to $21.6 trillion, in his first term, Trump gave us $6.6 trillion in deficits, a 33% increase.
Face it, you guys don't have facts, and you don't get results, all you have rhetoric and demagoguery, all you really get is entertainment politics from your reality TV president, hope you enjoy the show as the real-world crumbles.

gotta be the tree falling in the forest thing.Nope. No tree thing. It's legit.
I still think #15 is a legit, and correct answer, wet is a sensation, if there is no one perceiving it as wet, then it isn't wet. Just like the old adage, if a tree falls in the forest and there is nobody there to hear it, did it make a sound? No, it made a vibration, a vibration only becomes a sound when it hits an eardrum and is perceived as sound.
As for most disliked word, without consulting my preferred search engine [not google] my personal favorite is "if." Anything following 'if' in a logic test must assume is not currently true, or the question would not be asked, and, therefore, 'if' cannot justify what follows as a 'then' expression.According to Ladders [theladders.com: https://www.theladders.com/career-advice/these-are-the-9-most-hated-words-in-the-english-language ]the most hated English word is: moist. This from a series of surveys Ladders did. I don't follow the reasoning, and I'd hold with my 'if' suggestion, but moist is many someones' suggestion.
I didn't get it when I first read it, so I asked five people if there was a word they hated most, three of them said "moist".
Whatever [Ladder's 3rd most hated word]
I think that's the word I hate most.
That or "literally", when people use it to emphasize an exaggeration.
I've hated hearing that literally a billion times.

Firemen have always wondered why they had all those hoses on the trucks, Trump finally solved the mystery.They already do, they are trained in how to estinguish fires, it's just that the democrat lawmakers were unaware and fought against the use of water until Trump used his executive powers to force open some lines of water.

How about, reality is experiential, the wetness of water is a sensation. so, water is wet when someone perceives it to be wet.

The assholes that elected him said it was because he promised to stop inflation LOLHe also in 2016 promised to pay off the debt. Well, we saw how that worked out.
He presided over the greatest economic collapse this country has seen since the 1930s, Biden Presided over the greatest economic recovery since the 30s, and those dumbasses said they voted for him because he would be better for the economy than Biden. The guy has declared bankruptcy six times, he bankrupted four casinos, that is almost impossible to do.
His base is galactically gullible and dumber than a box of rocks, that is a bad combination.

The guy's gone tariff crazy.So everyone sticks tariffs on US exports.Call it tariffism.
The assholes that elected him said it was because he promised to stop inflation LOL, soon they will be praying for prices to drop back down to the levels they were under Biden.
Let's see, it's only been two weeks and he's gone to war with our trading partners, our allies, the US Government, and all the American people who aren't straight white males.

Water to put out fires, what a fucking concept, Firemen everywhere should thank Trump for coming up with the idea.Firemen were also saying it but democratic leaders were not allowing them to use water.
Yes, Democrats wanted to use gasoline to put out fires...thank God for our Savior Trump, let's all cheer, water for fires, water for fires.
Don't forget they started the fires with their Jewish Space Lasers in the first place, the great tragedy is Newsome didn't even rake the forest.

Chack the front page for debates right now where a person is literally trying to debate that using water on fire is bad and Trump should have let California burn. It's not a troll it's an actual liberal
Yes Einstein, Trump came up with the idea of firefighting with water, and this is really special because Democrats are against using water on fire.
I can't believe you aren't a professional political operative, I mean, it's fucking brilliant.
Oh oh, how about this, Trump came up with the idea of feeding your pets, Democrats are against feeding pets, Democrats want your pets to die.
Woo hoo, this political analysis stuff is awesome.
I thought of another one, Trump came up with the idea of breast-feeding babies, that's really good because Democrats want to feed them tabasco sauce from bottles.
This is just the kind of stuff the MAGA base will go nuts for.

Equity simply modifies the concept of equality to achieve fairnessand justice for those disadvantaged groups that require differential treatment. Equality is treating everyone the same, equity is building a wheelchair ramp to so those in wheelchairs have equal access. The goal is not equal outcomes, it's equal opportunities.Correct. Which goes against meritocracy. Yes you give equal opportunity to both retards and intelligent people to be doctors but it isn't meritocracy.
More made up dumbass nonsense, nobody is giving "equal opportunity to both retards and intelligent people to be doctors".
I understand the concept of fairness being applied and am telling you I think it gets worse results for society.
Because you consider any challenge to white supremacy as "worse results for society", but there is more to American society than what's in your trailer parks.
So nothing you said contradicts what I said here
So you concur with my statement "We both know the agenda of those who misrepresent DEI programs is justification of prejudice and bigotry."

I didn't say it directly caused the DC crash, but it is the kind of uninformed recklessness that will increase the likelihood of further aviation disasters.Any radical organizational shakeup will produce chaos and harm its efficiency in the short-term. This doesn't make them not worth doing.
It appears Trump produces chaos for no other reason than heenjoys producing chaos, and chaos does reduce efficiency. The simple fact is manufacturing chaos for noreason and without a plan is not worth doing.
For example, see the Air Traffic Controller Strike of 1981. Reagan fired more than 11,000 skilled employees whose job was to keep planes from crashing into each other. If there was ever a time for Democrats to scream bloody murder and accuse the Republican President of being a crypto-fascist who wanted to kill people, it would be then.
Another MAGA fantasy, you want to walk about what Democrats “would have done” 45 years ago, rather than what they actually did 45 years ago, that’s MAGA logic all right. Here is the real world, the Democrats did not “scream bloody murder and accuse the Republican President of being a crypto-fascist who wanted to kill people”, but hey, nice job of trying to radicalize the base by making shit up with “predictions” about what could happen in the past LOL.
But in the long run, Reagan's firing vastly improved the efficiency of air travel by preventing disruptive strike actions which grounded much of the United States and created uncertainty as to whether the towers needed to help planes already in the air land safely would be manned at the pivotal minutes in question.My point being, the long-term ramifications of Trump Administration's shakeup of the Federal workforce remain to be seen. Right now the media wants you to panic and suppose that only horrible outcomes will result from whatever Trump is doing, but you shouldn't.
Yeah, it remains to be seen how his reckless creation of chaos will play out this time, but let’s recognize that this is not Trump’s first term and we have all seen this country wait to see the long-term ramifications of Trump’s uninformed and chaotic shake-ups.
In 2018, Trump recklessly disbanded the White House pandemic response team, for no other reason that it was Obama who had put it in place, he also made funding cuts to the CDC at that time. In 2020 Covid hit an unprepared US and Trump’s hopelessly incompetent response resulted in the death of a million Americans.
But hey, there’s only been two plane crashes in the last two days, let’s wait and see what effect Trump’s gutting our aviation safety resources will have. Who knows, maybe he can create no crash zones with a map and a sharpie pen.

Mind you, this is al-Jazeera. Not exactly a right-wing source. In any case, whatever the optics of Trump making that call right before this accident happened, it has no actual bearing on such.
I didn't say it directly caused the DC crash, but it is the kind of uninformed recklessness that will increase the likelihood of further aviation disasters. Trump jumped to politicize it while they were still pulling bodies out of the Potomac, blaming DEI, and hypocritically lying about his predecessors having done what he had just done to lay blame.

My disgust with Pedophiles isn't because they are chasing 15, 16, 17-year-olds, it's the children these laws are here to protect.Some pedophiles are children, so not sure how that even works.

Hey, Sidewalker.
Hey man.
Not many years ago at all, homosexuals were treated just as badly.But now they are the heroes of our generation.
I don't know that they are heroes, but we've come a long way in treating them more equally, I think.
Here's a question for you.Over hear the age of consent is sixteen.So in terms of physiological maturity what's the difference between 15 years and 364 days, and 16 years?One day of course, and during that one day a person becomes capable of making their own sexual choices, and will also become incorruptible.
People mature at different rates no doubt, but you have to draw the legal line somewhere, driving, drinking, consent, they all need to have a point in time when it's legally OK, and it's never going to be fair for everybody. I'm old enough to remember when you could be drafted and go to war at an age when you couldn't have a beer, vote, or give consent. My disgust with Pedophiles isn't because they are chasing 15, 16, 17-year-olds, it's the children these laws are here to protect.
What a difference a day makes,Twenty four little hours.La la la la la.
A man comes home from work to find his wife packing a suitcase, he says "What's going on honey"
She says, "I'm leaving you because I heard you were a pedophile, and I can't accept that".
The man says, "Pedophile is a pretty big word for an eight-year-old, do you even know what it means?"
