Everytime I see one of these posts I scream to myself “What did they think they were getting?!” We knew who Trump was and what he was going to do.

It’s amazing how inept they really are at being the opposition.

I threw my back out at 27 bending over to tie my shoe. It’s a magical age.

Best of luck

Doesn’t Ecuador use the U.S. Dollar? It’ll be interesting if the tariffs last any length of time.

The tariffs have the potential to create serious problems if they last any length of time. Especially for food and auto.

Do you think Fetterman was a phony from the start or is his current positions and behavior a result of the stroke?

The problem is getting an angry crowd. If the majority support it where you are you’re just a lone “nut case”.

Same thing here. Mine is hardcore MAGA and both Senators are 100% shills. Also no one in my area cares… they all think Trump is going to do a great job and save everything. There are two Democrats in Congress from my state but neither one is capable of fighting anything. I don’t know what to do but watch it burn.

I agree but some pushback closer to home would be nice.

It’s likely to be taken away anyway. There is a vocal group in the US pushing for more isolation and less funding for those types of aid. The Trump admin will keep raising the vig if you capitulate now.

For the case of your job or school you either use what is required or you need to find another job or school. That might not be popular but it’s the reality. Other relationships don’t have that kind of pull. Maybe RCS could fix some of it but given what happened with XMPP I’m doubtful.

As the only Android user in a social group of iPhone users I felt this way too much.

The only one that is difficult to replace is Facebook. It’s still the best way to keep up with family and friends from all over. I also like Facebook Marketplace and haven’t found a substitute that is as good.

Tells should be in the business of batteries and drivetrains. Let companies that know how to build cars build cars.

Probably more accurate to say he ripped it away from them than simply bought it.

A minimal popular vote win gave him multiple wins at so many levels it’s sickening. And how the media pretends like he’s not who he is amplifies the sense it was a huge victory.

I believe all but the most hardcore MAGA believe that at some level. No one will admit it. One of my favorite childhood stories was “The Emperor’s New Clothes”. I never thought I’d live to see it happen in real life.

According to the FEMA website the amount increased by $20 October 1. Probably indexed for inflation.

I’d like to believe that but assuming he dies sometime during this term or shortly after he will be deified by his base. I also have a feeling the media and history will treat him more kindly than he deserves.
