President Trump 2.0: The NEW one and only politics thread

You don't think they were lazy, ignorant, uninformed and uncaring regarding what, how and whom to vote for, assuming they're not horrible people like Trump?

To me, and most any other who tried to educate themselves at all, and who had any morals at all, there should've been practically no debate about what, how and whom to give a vote.

That's why there's such turmoil and division right now. And why Trump is so afraid there is so much division: people literally cannot wrap their heads around other voters' decisions, mostly because they cannot ever seem to explain them in specific terms. They literally voted for a celebrity/name person, not someone who they probably would like to actually live under, again assuming that they're not horrible people, of course.

 

Because Mark Cuban would be less militant and more ethical about it. There's nothing wrong with that.

 

Makes sense

Some in Hurricane Helene-ravaged North Carolina embrace Trump's push to abolish FEMA

 

We have idiots running our government, and consequently, taking our lives in their hands.

U.S. Rep. Don Beyer (D-VA), a member of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee, blasted the FAA firings:

“Mass firings of FAA workers – at a time when they already have serious staffing problems – would be dangerous at any time. Musk and Trump doing this weeks after the deadliest crash in years is stupid beyond belief.”

Professor of Public Policy Don Moynihan charged, “even after a bunch of accidents that highlighted FAA staffing shortages they still went ahead and fired FAA staff. They don’t know what they are doing.”

 

LOL. Get pwned woke Beyer, AI will solve everything! Robots can get air traffic controllers, noob!

 

So EMTS who are on SAR teams in National Parks are an example of "waste and fraud?" What about gun-toting park police? Or firefighters? All of whom have been shitcanned because hurr-de-durr "probationary!"

 

The government exists as a public service. It’s not supposed to turn a fucking profit.

 

If they’re horrible, call them horrible.

 

It's supposed to break even. Failure of that devalues the money held by the public you're supposed to be servicing. And that Clinton "surplus" sure got a lot of boasting.

You're responding to an imaginary post.

Well, he's been fined $1.35 million by the NBA for 1. tanking and 2. voicing support of tanking.

I'll concede Cuban would likely be "less unethical" than Musk. High bar.
