Good to see he’s focusing on real world problems.
So, did he recently spout off about dolls and pencils again? Because this all happened in May:
Trump says U.S. girls ‘could be very happy’ with lots fewer dolls under new tariffs
If he did repeat the same nonsense it would be extra wacko this time.
He did. It’s so weird that he uses the number 37, specifically, because every time I hear it, I think of Clerks, LOL:
So it’s not like Donvict watched Clerks and had that number put into his head by Smith, it’s more like Smith picked a “random” number for the script and landed on…37.
Maybe he’s talking about the Shein pedophile dolls.
When his followers have to stand in line for whatever slop Walmart is willing to sell them that week, they’ll blame Democrats.
and Immigrants
They’ll say such ridiculous bullshit as “Immigrant shoplifters are causing the stores to raise prices” even though the prices are set by supply:demand equilibrium in order to maximize profits and therefor theft could not and would not affect prices because raising the price in the assumption of theft results in less sales and therefor less profit.
Well, sort of. When you give one man supreme power to do whatever he wants it kind of turns into a dictatorship.
It goes without saying that Trump, who is friends with that communist Mamdani would want to make America more like the USSR /s
No, it’s the America you lot voted for.
How’s it feel being great again?
the America you lot voted for
Every two years we vote. Every two years things get worse.
Clearly, the problem is with the people doing the voting. Couldn’t possibly be something fundamentally dysfunctional in our democratic model.
Kamala Harris targeted Republican women for a good portion of her campaign, and dropped a lot of the very popular Democratic platform, resulting in millions of Democrats sitting this one out.
Do you think this is because they are stupid? Why would they do this if not to take a knee? And I still thought that Trump would lose, I couldn’t believe that he would be re-elected. I’m never cynical enough.
Imagine if she ran on a $15 an hour minimum wage increase, helping many millions of our poorest Americans, with over 60% voter support (not Democrat). Our consumer economy would get millions of new consumers participating.
Ds and Rs are now 30% each, independents are 40% of the voters. Both parties know that they cannot win without a majorly popular independent issue. Why was this ignored?
Oh, almost forget, yes, I know, BoTh SiDeS and so on.
Imagine if she ran on a $15 an hour minimum wage increase
To be extremely clear. THAT WAS ONE OF HER POLICIES
THAT WAS ONE OF HER POLICIES
Democrats run on $15/hr, win in a landslide (2020), and throw up their hands because they don’t have Joe Manchin’s permission to raise wages in the US Senate.
Republicans run on ending abortions and now abortions are fully illegal in a slew of states, with a national ban on the horizon.
I didn’t watch her every appearance, but I did watch quite a lot, and minimum wage seriously got very little time compared to her pursuit of Republicans. Reporters and politicos who did watch everything agree. Abortion was in the forefront regarding their D platform, which has about as much support as higher minimum wage (over 60%).
If she had replaced her R outreach with campaigning for higher wages, and continued as she did with the abortion issue, she would have received many more D and independent voters. She needed them both to win, the “R strategy” was weird and stupid and in my opinion I think she was paid to do exactly what she did.
Her campaign undeniably made a fortune from somebody (over a billion dollars). Not only did she make more than anybody ever, she did it in just a few months. It’s a radical and preposterous increase, right in the open, in public.
She immediately knew reaching out to Rs was a massive waste of precious time and that she would lose if she did so. It’s a mathematical certainty, bOtH pArTiEs know that they need to court independents instead of their opponents to win a fed election.
I voted for her, this is not a Trump defense, he also is paid to do exactly what he does by “donors” (like Saudi Arabia and Musk and Bezos and Walmart and Russia and that guy from the Hercules sitcom).
And you’re every so politely ignoring the states run by dems having higher min wages, to pretend that it’s only Republicans getting shit done. Notably just like there isn’t a $15 min national wage, there’s also not a national abortion ban. Your comparison is poorly cherry picked.
I can’t speak for everyone, but I thought thoroughness would be pedantic. I could have gone into much more detail, or at least typed out “FEDERAL minimum wage”, but I had thought this was taken for granted in any FEDERAL election. So what do you do? Accuse me of “pretending” and “cherry picking”, that’s not nice.
So, for future reference, a President can only sign a federal minimum wage increase, they are unable to raise state, city, etc. minimum wages. I’ll be sure to type that out into great detail next time. Ha, I’m kidding, ain’t nobody got time for that.
You know my post would have had to be pages long for the wage increase if I went into detail, you could easily write a fat book about it.
Remember, 40% of voters are independent, Ds and Rs are at 30% each. It’s to your advantage to be cordial, whatever party you are; hostility will NOT win elections. Not an accusation, just sharing a factoid (hint hint)
For the comment higher towards you I really did mean that as a general clarification. I would’ve worded it more strongly otherwise. I wasn’t entirely sure if you realized it or not given your wording, so I wanted to make sure less familiar people reading on that were more clear.
The cherry picking comment was not to you, it was to their person it’s replied to. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you just misread the comment chain
ignoring the states run by dems having higher min wages
Which states have a living wage?
$15 isn’t a living wage.

No shit.
To be extremely clear. THAT WAS ONE OF HER POLICIES
Of course, this is well known in politics circles. That is why I said, “a good portion of her campaign was targeting Republican women voters.” (bold added for emphasis)
To be totally transparent, SERIOUSLY, THIS Is NOT A JOKE OR SOME KIND OF WORD TRICKERY OR CONSPIRACY, WITH NO CLAIMS MADE OF A CERTAIN PERCENTAGE OR EXCLUSIVITY OF POLICIES.
I think the 2 of your’s disconnect is over what ‘ran on’ means. Most people would take that to be the main emphasis of the campign messaging,
Not the total platform and all its contents.
Yes, my opinion is she “ran on” abortion and R outreach primarily.
Abortion was a good issue, but any “R outreach” time spent was wasted. Spend that time on Democrats and independents instead.
BoTh SiDeS and so on.
One might argue the sides are Labor and Capital, but we only have representatives from the Capital Party to choose from every year
Agreed! Our “labor party” sold out a long time ago; our current choices are secular or theocratic capital.
The vast majority of Americans didn’t vote for this. Two thirds of us didnt vote for this. If you think this is the voters’ fault, you dont understand the world very well, my friend.
America has a two party system where both parties are controlled by capitalists and the entire system is designed to keep the populous divided and distracted so that the capitalists can continue to extract wealth. In such a system, participation itself is the moral choice, not the choice between one side or the other.
Voters give legitimacy to the false dichotomy that capitalists present us.
Maybe not the Soviet Union. More like Putin’s Russia, as proxied by Cheeto McPedo.
Barely any difference.
This is the United States of Consumerism gosh darn it and my child deserves at least 30 Chinese made toys.
Only soulless monsters don’t feel the warm embrace of conspicuous and gratuitous consumption
My kids require toys made by Chinese children!
Pencils and dolls, so hot this holiday season of 1934.
He only used one colour when he drew his pervy picture of a young girl for Epstein.
“They’re eating the pencils! They’re eating the erasers!”.
They’re eating, THEY’RE EATING THE LEAD.
But Kamala laughed funny.
Krasnov swings, back and forth, from fascism to communism.
What a dull colourless life he must live with only 2 pencils
He’s right you don’t need pencils, but you always need steel. I’m going to buy my family a block of steel this year. We always need it! So why not!
