Trump Gets Rid of Those Pesky Statistics
The numbers were simply not patriotic enough.
"For decades, Donald Trump has been at war with numbers. Some have capitulated more swiftly than others. His weight, his golf scores, and his net worth have long fallen in line."

Graph showing the Standard and Poor 500 index down 150 points since July 30th
Sharp drop in the stock market caused by headwinds from Trump's tariffs and the latest jobs report.

📌Trump inherited the strongest economy in the entire world, and screwed it up in record time. Job growth has stalled, and is at a 16-yr low — or the last time a Democrat was fixing a battered economy left in shambles by a Republican.
Why did anybody think it would be any different this time around?

ARE YOU A WOMAN successfully running something big in Washington?
The commissioner of labor statistics?
The archivist of the United States?
The librarian of Congress?
The director of the Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery?
A top general or admiral?
TOO BAD. TRUMP WANTS YOU GONE.

Dismal jobs numbers. Epstein scandal. Distraction needed. Announce an investigation into ... something or someone.

Trump thinks it's going to help him when he uses his position as president to swap favors for convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, in exchange for her falsely exonerating him.
I think it's going to backfire. People are going to see it for the outrageous coverup it is.

The massive list of suspended UCLA grants came out today: 300 NSF and 500 NIH grants. I am miraculously not on the list, but this is devastating. Science will be lost, progress will be frozen, people will lose jobs, and careers in science and medicine are being destroyed. This is not ok.

Trump can’t actually fire Jay Powell; he can only demote him. But let’s say he is able to somehow strong arm the Fed to pull down interest rates. Tariffs are creating an inflationary environment that will only get worse unless Congress puts a stop to this nonsense

Trump: "Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything." Bush: "Yeah those legs. All I can see is the legs." Trump: "It looks good."

Whatever became of the motto "Loose lips sink ships"?
Trump would have announced the upcoming D-Day on his social media platform.

Further Modifying the Reciprocal Tariff Rates
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the International Emergency
The White House published its table of Trump’s latest global tariffs regime last night. And it just reaffirms that his trade policy has absolutely no rhyme or reason: 10% tariffs on the Falkland Islands, but 40% on Laos. Utterly random and bonkers. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
