Trump Promised Americans Booming Wealth. Now Heโ€™s Changing His Tune. (Gift Article) President Trumpโ€™s sweeping promises are running headlong into the reality of governing.

If you think he care about the little people of this country, you don't understand con artists.

Economic growth is slowing โ€” so Trump wants to redefine โ€œeconomic growthโ€ The White House is promising to manipulate economic data.

Stocks are crashing. GDP is faltering. Our Dear Leader's answer? Change the rules...

25% tariffs start on Canada and Mexico tomorrow.
The stock market drops almost 2%.
It's as if tariffs and the economy were somehow related...

He promised to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution. Does that mean he doesn't give a s*** about DOG? ;-) Yeah, not really his style to actually govern anyway...

I am trying to get this moving. Write your senators. and representative. Ask them, politely, regarding the legal basis for DOGE, who is actually in charge of the group, who has oversight, what are its limits, what authority does it have, and what statute allows it such authority. Request response.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

It's so wonderful that Our Dear Leader will bring peace to Ukraine! And it is so clever of him to hold the meetings in Saudi Arabia and forget to invite the Ukrainians whose lands are being stolen. Yes this is very clever. Just ask Putin how clever this is and how neatly it will allow further raids.

The USA is no longer a Super Power.
To be a Super Power you have to be involved in the world. President Musk has proven that he doesn't want that. None of our allies can even trust us, even if we vote in a sane president again. Our Dear Leader has handed the field to China.

If you don't think America is corrupt, Pam Bondi, the Florida Attorney General who took a bribe, was sworn in as the US Attorney General by Clarence Thomas, a SCOTUS Justice who routinely takes bribes.

So Our Dear Leader has declared a trade war with our allies.

And our allies, as might be expected, hit back in kind.

And the only thing that will happen is that consumers will end up paying more for less.

Great Thinking, Drumpf!
