President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Yes, and anyone who has had a piece of Chinese metal fail in a way that should not happen, should find that incredibly alarming.

 

The total drop in US GDP during the recession was about one percent. Total US-China trade contribution to US GDP is about 4 and a half percent. Instant depression. As entertaining as it to learn things such as the point of origin of SpeedTchr's underwear, it's idle talk, because Trump made an idle threat that the world knows is bullshit. Mattis's threat had credibility. This one didn't.

 

Stop trade with China? Bahahaha

 

Trump again proves he can't ever have two good days in a row because of constant unforced errors.

He's going to end DACA, with a six-month delay. Again showing he only cares about the racists in his base.

The sixth months gives Congress time to act, and many GOP leaders are on record saying ending DACA would be hurtful to the economy. Will they actually do the right thing and finally stand up to Trump?

It also is yet another Trump turd in the punch bowl as a kickoff to what was already going to be an extremely difficult session to get any legislation passed.

How can anyone think Trump isn't just a flaming asshole? There's no reason to end this program. It's popular, even among Trump voters.


Trump has decided to end DACA, with 6-month delay

Ending This Immigration Program Would Devastate the Economy

 

It is also an issue Obama said he would actively re-enter politics to defend. It's the six month delay that's the real political malpractice. Do something unpopular, do it quick, that Ford pardoning Nixon. Also, it's so obviously kicking the cat because North Korea made him look like a blustering empty suit. He always punches down, never up. Just a complete waste of oxygen.

 

Yeah, Mr. Tough Trump kicks it to Congress. Such leadership. Inspiring.

 

He is such a bad person. Just ugly in every possible way.

 

What a stupid fucking headline. $43 billion (annually) is damn-near a rounding error in an $18 trillion economy.

 

Sure, "devastate" isn't the right word. But really? That's your fucking takeaway? It's still stupid for the "Business" president to shitcan $433 billion over 10 years and nearly 700,000 jobs as soon as the program is ended.

The people this program protects literally are the American Dream.

 

It's like the "34 million people to have health care ripped away from them" headline bullshit.

Criticize WHAT NEEDS TO BE CRITICIZED without inventing shit to criticize. Makes the doomsayers sound like the boy who cried wolf when the worst never happens.
