Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

As with all things, it is a mixed bag. I do applaud finally going through the government finances to make a sincere effort at eliminating fraud, waste, and abuse. I support forcing immigrants to go through the official channels set up by the Legislative Branch rather than turning a blind eye to our southern border. I'm glad to see someone who isn't obviously senile sitting as a figurehead while unelected mystery men run the most powerful nation on earth. While I am not cheering anyone losing their job, it is a reality that many government departments have needed modernization for a long time and there is far too much redundancy is many of the government's services.

As for the tariffs, no. I'm not happy with them and have become even more opposed as I've learned the numbers were derived from trade imbalances. That is retarded. I had hoped Trump was using them as a lever to get other nations to drop tariffs they have against US goods, but then other nations started dropping those and we hit them with tariffs anyway. That is where I step off the train.

You have an interesting set of priorities. What you call a mixed bag I would call a total failure. The positives you mentioned don’t really impact your life as much as the negative. Like not even close.

How do you weigh this out with yourself exactly? Because what he did was make you think those things are wins, when you end up taking a complete and total loss. Like nuke the economy bad loss.

Is that what you tell your kid when you can’t afford his training anymore?

Are you familiar with the marshmallow test? It is a test to measure a child’s ability to delay gratification. The nature of your argument is to say eating the marshmallow is better than not eating the marshmallow, and you totally ignore down-the-line consequences. All of the things I listed, getting rid of fraud, modernization, reduction of redundancy, etc., have long term benefits.

With the tariffs, I’m not so sure they do have long term benefits. The architect of this idea says they will, and I’m not talking about Trump. He didn’t come up with this idea. Scott Bessant has been pushing it for years. Trump is only the one selling the goodness of tariffs to the American people, and I’m not buying what he’s selling. I'm open to being proven wrong, but my instinct is that free trade is better than taxed trade.
 
The Rapist went with a liberal coating of orange for his "Liberation day". His hooker wife should get involved ASAP, since if there's one thing she knows it's makeup.
