And the MAGA-losing continues...

8 ( +13 / -5 )

The reason trump is such an ineffective potus is he has no understanding of government processes due to a lack of experience and laziness.

He's good at making big claims for headlines, but all of his policy just falls apart and never makes it across the finish line. Just like his first term.

8 ( +13 / -5 )

The things Democrats are “fighting for” are so against what American people wave.

And what do American people wave at exactly? Passing cars? Celebrities? Their loved ones when they're leaving on a train?

Nothing trump try to do is working ^o^

Trump has the Supreme Courts

I doubt that Roberts, Kavanaugh, and Coney-Barrett are willing to trash the constitutional authority of Congress to be in charge of spending. It's such a no brainer.

Americans can see who Democrats fight for. 

The Constitution, separation of powers, checks and balances, democratic norms, representational governance, justice, a fair shot for all.

Here's what JD Vance thinks about separation of powers:

"And when the courts — because you will get taken to court — and when the courts stop you, stand before the country like Andrew Jackson did and say: ‘The chief justice has made his ruling. Now let him enforce it.'"

I invite anyone on this thread to read up a bit on the ideas of Curtis Yarvin, who has had an enormous influence on JD, Steve Bannon, Peter Thiel, Marc Andreesen, and other tech bros. In what's called a "Dark Enlightenment", he proposes scrapping democratic governance with governance by joint-stock corporations.

This seems to be where MAGA is headed. And it's not what the "forgotten man" had in mind when voting for Trump.

 tax money overseas for dubious aid programs

Ayn Rand would agree. Screw those starving children. We've got some winning to do.

0 ( +4 / -4 )

*and replacing it with

-2 ( +2 / -4 )

But the winning is still 20 to 1.

you are “celebrating” the continuation of wasteful spending, why is that?

-9 ( +5 / -14 )

The Democrats are trying their hardest to slow down the Trump tsunami that is taking back the US government for the people of America.

Of course, they will fail, as they did in the election.

-9 ( +5 / -14 )

The things Democrats are “fighting for” are so against what American people wave.

fighting to:

keep current illegals in our country

continue wasteful spending

keep allowing drugs and new illegals to come in from other countries

allow useless federal employees to stay employed without even going to office

continue sending out tax money overseas for dubious aid programs

Americans can see who Democrats fight for. Hint: it’s not Americans.

-9 ( +4 / -13 )

Well, Trump has the Supreme Courts, so all is not lost, he will go through the process, so the left shouldn’t pop open a bottle of bubbly just yet.

The things Democrats are “fighting for” are so against what American people wave.

fighting to:

keep current illegals in our country

continue wasteful spending 

keep allowing drugs and new illegals to come in from other countries

allow useless federal employees to stay employed without even going to office 

continue sending out tax money overseas for dubious aid programs

Americans can see who Democrats fight for. Hint: it’s not Americans.

This is exactly what the left never gets. Every single time they try to be sneaky or push a one-sided dialogue, crap happens
