I can’t afford this Trump economy


Isn’t this against the law? A sitting US president selling bottles of fragrance on his web site?

And yet, Donald Trump is doing just that. Around 8pm Eastern, while the Senate readied to vote on Trump’s bill — one that will gut services in the country irreparably — he dropped this notice.

He trumpets on Truth Social: “Trump Fragrances are here. They’re called “Victory 45-47” because they’re all about Winning, Strength, and Success — For men and women. Get yourself a bottle, and don’t forget to get one for your loved ones too. Enjoy, have fun, and keep winning!”

The fragrances smell like “Fear” and “Shame.” They’re subtitled “Spittle” and “Urine a Bad Mood.” They cost $250 a bottle. There is also a woman’s fragrance that has top notes of sweat and used underwear. All the different variations can be used for hair growth on any part of the body.

For the gals, the copy reads: “With every spray, Victory 47 captures confidence, beauty, and unstoppable determination. A sophisticated, subtly feminine scent that’s your go-to signature for any occasion.”

It’s very good for meeting male sex clients in motel bars.

Each bottle depicts a gold figure on a pedestal, like an Academy Award.

As Trump milks his base — who already have had opportunities to buy worthless bitcoins and all kinds of tacky souvenirs — the US senate is fighting over his “big beautiful bill” — an ugly document that will gut the country of healthcare and other necessary items to continue living properly.

We are only now entering the sixth month of this charade of a presidency. We’re a year and four months away from mid term elections. When the Democrats take the House and Senate again, impeachment proceedings must begin. Trump has made a mockery of the position, and laughed in the faces of his really stupid followers.

PS Several of the bottles are sold out. LOL. When you smell a skunk coming your way with rolls of fat adorned with tattoos, and a MAGA hat atop a head with a vacant look, you’ll know where you are!

This is so embarrassing for Trump. Good thing he has no sense of shame.
 
The claim by State Dept. spokesperson Tammy Bruce that 90% of foreign aid never reaches the people who need the aid is total BS. Its based on ignoring the simple fact that most of the aid is distributed by foreign agencies after its released by the United States. Remember, our trolls are not only not too bright, but they also never fact check anything they post. Well, but we know that, just a reminder…

Another way to look at this: what choice do our trolls have, but to lie and post misleading crap?

 
EGGS!!!!! WHERE ARE THE ****ING EGGS?????? I NEED EGGS!!!!!!
According to trump, egg prices are down 400%!
Now when you go to the grocery (what a beautiful word btw) store, the store actually pays YOU money to take the eggs apparently.

Just a heads up, whenever I see a thread where the last post is by someone I have on ignore I just post whatever I find in like 15 seconds so as to deny them the last word in a thread. No idea what they post but I only have two active posters on ignore so I know they either posted a meme or a tweet because they do not have original thoughts.
 
I only have one cop of coffee a day. Most days. Always buy only when on sale. The other day I noticed a medium size canister of Folgers at Walgreens was $19.99. Ouch.

There are hundreds of millions of Americans that Trump could have thought of first, before imposing 50% tariffs on goods from Brazil. But he didn’t. He thought of Jair Bolsonaro first. He put Bolsonaro, the authoritarian who wants to burn down the entire Amazon rainforest, ahead of us.


President Donald Trump sent his Brazilian counterpart a stunning letter Wednesday, informing President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva that his country would face a new 50% tariff "due in part to...the way Brazil has treated" former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, a Trump political ally.

Trump blamed the massive spike in tariffs partly on “Brazil’s insidious attacks on Free Elections, and the fundamental Free Speech Rights of Americans.” The first reference is related to the trial of Bolsonaro, a one-time frequent visitor to Mar-a-Lago, on charges of attempting to illegally overturn his country’s presidential election results in 2022. "This trial should not be taking place," Trump wrote. "It is a Witch Hunt that should end IMMEDIATELY!"

The latter accusation stems from a Brazilian Supreme Court ruling last monththat deemed social media companies are responsible for the content posted on their platforms. (Ironically, this is also a goal of many American conservatives who advocate for revoking Section 230, which shields American platforms from being accountable for their users’ posts.) X was also briefly banned in the country during a standoff with billionaire Elon Musk over a court request to ban accounts that violated local laws. Trump railed against this and other court decisions in his letter as “SECRET and UNLAWFUL Censorship Orders to US. Social Media platforms.”

But Trump also attempted to frame the decision as one grounded in legitimate economic and trade issues. “In addition, we have had years to discuss our Trading Relationship with Brazil, and have concluded that we must move away from the longstanding, and very unfair trade relationship engendered by Brazil’s Tariff, and Non-Tariff, Policies and Trade Barriers. Our relationship has been, unfortunately, far from Reciprocal,” he wrote. Contrary to Trump’s claims, though, the United States holds a $7 billion trade surplus with Brazil.
