What has Trump done now?

[facthunter]

If you let a GALAH run the Place, you will have little but bird $#!t to show for it.  Blind Freddy could see this coming. How to be rid of HIM without looking like IDIOTS. Now THAT is THE question. Nev

[onetrack]

You first need to get rid of the tens of millions of idiots who support him, and who post on FB pages that Trump has done nothing wrong, and he's the greatest leader America has ever had!

 

Americans deserve all the shitty living conditions they're going to get, simply because they voted this moron in.

Why are you all so critical of Chump. He may publicly be all about fossil fuels and stuff the environment and renewables, but secretly, he is an ardent environmentalist and has shown the lengths he is prepared to go to save the planet by staring a war with Iran. It is about oil, but to stop using it: https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/iran-war-fuel-crisis-gives-electric-cars-long-term-boost-2026-03-24/

 

We all should be thankful for Chump's extraordinary leadership. 

 

(pls take it with the sarcasm it was meant).

Is it true that USA is going bankrupt?

Not something we can blame trumpy for, but kinda illustrates how Merkans end up with a reputation for poor decision making.

 

"A county sheriff's office in Maryland said Monday a professional cornhole player who's also a quadruple amputee fatally shot a passenger in the front seat of a car he was driving during an argument."

 

There are too many (trumplike) unanswered questions there.

Who gave him control of the bus and the weaponry?

The US has been morally bankrupt for at least 80 years probably more. The debt now stands at $US39 trillion & in 2024 it was 124.3% of GDP. In comparison Australias debt  is $AUD 881.9 billion & 32% of GDP. If any company had a debt ratio like the US it would have been bankrupted years ago & investors would have got virtually nothing in the dollar back.

 

Most of the US debt is held internally by the Federal reserve system plus bonds, banks, pension funds & individuals. China, Japan & the UK are the biggest foreign investors. If i were them I'd be seriously looking at cashing up & getting out now.

This reminds me that Oscar Pistorius, also a sporting champion and double amputee, shot and killed someone.

So, like the people who say trans people are more likely to murder someone, I must conclude that multiple amputees who are good at any sport are highly likely to be shooting murderers...

I'm sure it'll get much more exciting for you, when you can't afford to buy fuel to go to town, and you start to find all your groceries have gone up by 30% to 50% in price within a few weeks.

Late post, Internet connection dropped out after I composed this the other day. It got saved waiting for me to hit the "Submit Reply" button. Connection is all good now so hitting the button. 

 

 

I started planning for those contingencies years ago. Bitter experiences in the past taught me not to take anything for granted, so I don't.

But are all these items that inflation is hitting, and the shortages, providing all that excitement you were looking forward to?

[Grumpy Old Nasho]

Please explain?

 

I make my own happiness, my own luck, and excitement ... and to do that, I had to adopt One Nation's policy mindset after bitter experiences living in multicultural Sydney. It's a long story, but Sydney is not the place for me anymore. It used to be before 1980 but things have got so far out of hand there since then, one wonders what's going to become of it. Thankfully, there are locations in Australia that will hopefully never be touched by terrorism and government sponsored antagonism of Aussie Anglos, and I think I'm living in one of those places now, out here in the bush, living among my fellow traditional Aussies.

 

If I was supposed to engage in "white flight", then I was more than happy to do that.

HUGE BREAKING: Democrat FLIPS Trump's home district of Mar-a-Lago BLUE, moving the needle 21 points from the last election.
Emily Gregory just HUMILIATED Trump in a special election, now representing Mar-a-Lago. His last minute mail-in-ballot couldn't cut it, as a MASSIVE BLUE WAVE against him wiped out any hope that a Republican could hold this seat -- even in the place he calls home.
Can't wait 'til he sees this!

True.

 

But Oscar was NOT armless, was he!

 

But he didn't have a leg to stand on.
