ex-President Trump
I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?
So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at low-info Boomers like my religions aunts. I have two questions:
a) Is anyone here who supports Trump bothered by lies like this?
b) Does anyone know what he's even talking about here? Like is there some grain of truth that he's embellishing on bigly?

This is very typical behavior for Trump. He believes that, as a president (or a former president), he is entitled to an enormous amount of respect and deference from the media, no matter how big a jackass he is or how little respect he shows for democracy or the office. I guess that's a fairly typical attitude for someone who has been surrounded by yes men for the most of the last fifty years.
Tesla the company and tesla the stock aren't the same. Stock down dont mean company down and stock go up dont mean company doing good.
The stock attempts to forecast the companies' most likely outcome and the likelihood of different outcomes. If their net income only increases 15% yoy, or sales of a specific something only increased by a factor of 40 instead of 50, that alone could cause the stock to drop despite a company contnuing to grow. The company is valued at 3/4 of a trillion because of the expectations that it has. Tesla isn't going to resemble anything like it does now in 10-15 years whcih is why it's valued at nearly 20 Ford motor companies as of now.
You have to give the Don credit for showing up to a hostile environment. That first interviewer was nasty. Also, Biden or Harris was supposed to be there but they did a bait and switch.
It will all be forgotten soon. The Don can say and do anything and still win. We've seen it before.
This racism has to stop.
It's sad that liberals consider MAGA a pejorative.
Make America Great Again is a bad thing?
Yes because America is already great right now !
And what maga propose as policies is obviously very bad too .
Liberals actually help tremendously Americans , u just don’t know your history enough to know it’s seem .
I think it’s more about you think u understand what liberals represent when u actually don’t ….

Liberalism in the United States is based on concepts of unalienable rights of the individual. The fundamental liberal ideals of freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of religion, the separation of church and state, the right to due process, and equality before the law are widely accepted as a common foundation of liberalism.
That’s freedom !
Tea party /maga -> Americans talibans !
Ps: I guess the bolded part is a hard concept for maga …
Yeah I don't really want yo go back to the pre civil rights era. We are greater now.
No you don't. No she wasn't. No they weren't.
In case anyone was wondering.
Lipstick on a pig.
I'm talking about the modern creepy woke liberal. These people are taking the world down an immoral path. Did you see the opening of the olympics?
Yes, we saw it. Can you guys stop being weird about it?
We are certainly better now but not great. Inflation is out of control. Only rich people can eat out or go on vacations. The border is being flooded with not the best people sneaking into the country. Children are being taught horrible immoral things in school and on TV. The nuclear family is dying.
Inflation is quite well controlled.
I am not rich and eat out and go on vacations.
The border is not being flooded.
Children are not being taught horrible immoral things in school (maybe TV, but lol).
The nuclear family is fine, just not the only thing.
Inflation is lower than under Reagan. I can’t really think of when America was better. And many former republicans have abandoned Trump style regressive idiocy.
How much debt are you accumulating eating out and going on vacations?
Everyone is able to eat out, go on vacation and still save because of the Trump tax cuts. Either that or Trump blew 2 trillion on tax cuts with basically nothing helping regular people.
So what? Inflation is still ridiculously high. Average people can't afford a decent car or buy a home or go on a nice vacation. Many people are underemployed and not making near what they used to. The salmon dinner at the casino has gone from 9$ three years ago to 22$ now.
Everybody who is rich.
Zero, thank you for asking.
I wasn’t around during Reagan, but things were awful then. Why is he held in high regard by modern republicans? Definitely don’t want to go back to 15% interest rates like conservatives seem to.
Inflation has been steady at about 3% (which is where it needs to be) for over a year. It fell consistently after the Inflation Reduction Act passed to get there.
Must be a coincidence.
Trump will certainly rectify the teaching of immoral things! Day One!
You're using casino prices to illustrate how people can't afford to go out to eat?
casino comps and resort fees are the only true measures of an economy
