The Trump Presidency - Part 2

I’d rather harakiri myself than suck up to trump like some think Zelensky should have done

As if it’s gonna make any difference to what Putin tells trump to do
 
I'm no expert, but I don't think jumping in and out of those kind of EFTs based on micro changes is really the way to do it?
It usually isn’t. I might move to an European ETF though, feels safer. My investment right now is pocket change anyway. .
 
MAGA really going to blame Biden for the impending economic fallout and people are buying it.
 
Dont see how Trudeau calling Trump "dumb" helps ...
First, he was quoting the Wall Street Journal there. Second, it doesn't call him dumb but his plans (it even actually days Trump his clever, as did Trudeau). And third - regardless of everything else, what can Canada still do? Kissing Trump's ass and meeting his demands hasn't worked, and the demands are anyway clearly just a pretext because of USMCA requirements. (I'm surprised Trump cares about providing a pretext, but it is what it is.)

The correct approach now is to take the gloves off and make the tariffs hurt the US. Only that can now produce the sort of pressure required to make Trump back off.
 
Zelensky ready to sign the deal. Is Trump a genius?
Zelensky is ready to sign the original deal, without the alteration that had been inserted on Friday just before he entered the White House. Or has that changed now?
 
MAGA really going to blame Biden for the impending economic fallout and people are buying it.
They all cheered as the markets rallied post inauguration. Well done Trump! Trump’s economy!

Now it’s reacting to his policies and taking a nosedive: Why would Biden do this to us?!
 
The Trump - Vance - Zelensky debacle reminds me of the old adage - If you get into a pissing match with a skunk no-one ends up smelling good!
 
Trump knows how to get under people's skin alright.
As for the trade war; I'm not sure what his end game is here.
Has the price of eggs and gasoline dropped significantly yet? have they fcuk!

Robert Maxwell led a flamboyant lifestyle, living in Headington Hill Hall in Oxford, from which he often flew in his helicopter, or sailing in his luxury yacht, the Lady Ghislaine, named after his daughter Ghislaine. In 1991, his body was discovered floating in the Atlantic Ocean, having apparently fallen overboard from his yacht. He was buried in Jerusalem. Six serving and former heads of Israeli intelligence services attended Maxwell's funeral in Israel, while Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir eulogised him and stated: "He has done more for Israel than can today be told."[
 
It’s hard not to laugh the way he keeps calling Trudeau governor
Canada joining the union with all it's provinces and territories becoming individual states must terrify the GOP establishment. 26 new US senators, 50+ new reps in the the house, a significant amount electoral college votes. Should be enough to ensure the GOP never wins another presidential election or control either house of congress.

And would make way for Puerto Rico and DC to become states adding another 4 senators and a few more congressmen.

Add two eco socialist Inuit senators from Greenland. This never made any sense

well the question is if the annexed people get voting rights, and then whether they get to keep their internal administrative divisions

It makes no difference. Play nice and 47 screws you over. Speak to him the way he speaks to others (including Trudeau) and he screws you over.

May as well speak your mind.

Even if they joined as a single state, they'd still get their share of congressmen and electoral college votes. Just two senators though.

I hadn't thought of that. Just when you think Trump couldn't look any more stupid he rises to the challenge.
