    We'll need for the full effects of his Big Bill to be felt by his supporters, followed by a mid-term election. Like when Trumpers go to use their Medicaid and it isn't there. Or when they get hit by a hurricane and FEMA has been dismantled. Or when people can't get their Social Security because there aren't enough staffers to help them. Or when plane crashes become regular events without a properly staffed group of air traffic controllers. Watching the national debt skyrocket will not help him either. Unemployment could also be a serious issue for him, based on the recent downward trend. He can attack any of these issues on his own by telling lies, but he can't attack all of them at the same time with lies, or the ignorant masses might see him as . . . a liar. Social Security and Medicaid are, by themselves, more than enough to be Trump's undoing.

    Trump inherited a pretty good economy from Biden, but he's trashing it. Americans are a fairly ignorant lot, but even they can see the damage that Trump is doing to the economy. Trump's delusional supporters are in the minority, but do not seem to know it.

    And here I thought that saying somebody hated somebody was the same as calling them a "hater." It is very surprising that some people are allowed to "call others haters." Perks of having your own set of rules, I guess.

    A (slightly) larger tax refund is a poor consolation prize when:

    a) you've lost your job.

    b) inflation eats up a much greater percentage of your income than before.

    c) you can't afford basic medical care.

    Yes, poor people are often somewhat dumb, but they wise up quickly after they realize they've been robbed.

    You sound a lot like Obama when he tried to make fun of Trump policy by condescendingly asking if Trump had a magic wand, only to be 100% wrong. You also sound like Biden when a year ago he said “I’ve done all I can do” about immigration, only to see Trump close the border in 30 days. But hey. If that works for you keep it up

    “What magic wand do you have?” – Ways and Means


    Joe Biden says he's done all he can do about U.S.-Mexico border

    Visualizing the plunge in border crossings under Trump

    this RR quote seems to fit you well

    The trouble with our Liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so

    Haha. Trump's magic wand produced $3 trillion in additional debt during a time there was no pandemic (2017-2019) and when we were not at war. And that was when he had capable advisors from the republican party, not Fox News hosts kissing his ass 24/7. And he built 54 miles of fencing (not wall) at the 1954-mile-long Mexican border. And once the pandemic arrived, he pretty much botched that too. Hell of a magician.

    You'll figure it out before he leaves office. You'll probably want to start thinking about a new username, in case you are too ashamed to admit how wrong you were.

    lotta projection in that post. You be you man

    I’m still waiting for WW3 to start because Trump took out Iranian nuclear sites instead of giving them money. We were assured by the likes of you that was going to happen


    Oh yeah. And people are turning against Trump immigration policy….er maybe they aren’t and you keep the media bs again and again. We were assured everyone hates Trump mean policies

    Donald Trump gets polling boost from Hispanics

    I don't recall anyone saying that WW3 could break out because of the attacks on the Iranian nuclear facilities although some of our pro-Russian friends on this board have suggested the upping aid to Ukraine could precipitate WW3.
