US Elections (& Politics) :)

I voted for Trump and I don't regret it. I'll take him over the last 4 or 5 previous presidents. I see a flawed person who says stupid things and exaggerates but I liked his America first policies. What is happening? Rush Limbaugh said "The only person that can separate Trump from his supporters is Trump." I wish he would get back to America first. Maybe most of you are doing ok but our budget is straining under costs, especially insurance and electric/gas. I'm not assigning blame, just stating that costs are getting out of control and Republicans could be in trouble in the coming elections. James Carville "It's the economy stupid". I know some will disagree and that's ok, we still have freedom of speech.
 
Agree, I think it’s more to juice the economy than give us money. Same with the Covid stimmies, but led to inflation.

I just saw Bessent talking about the baby $. Every newborn beginning 1/1/25 gets $1000 account that will of course go to the stock market.
3.6M newborns on avg, X $1000
= $3,600,000,000 new money into the stock market

(Not sure how these accounts are decided or managed?)

Good news!
(Unless you’re counting on tariff revenue to solve every fucking economic problem that comes along and spending it 2x-3x times)

Trump has himself in a box. Tariffs are supposed to be the saving grace, paying down the debt, stimmy checks, etc etc.
But every time word gets out about them hurting US business or the consumer, or he gets pushback from big exporters like China, he repeals them.

Can’t have it both ways…


Nobody cares.
Where's my $2000 tariff check?
I want it now, now, now.
Please ask my King what the hold up is. Thank you very much.
