Mexican cartels sitting there laughing saying, “why would we put a bounty on the people we pay to help us smuggle drugs into the country?”

I honestly think it’s very funny that he believes any constituency has ever rewarded a politician for punishing them. Like he really thinks if he moves the games people are gonna be like, “yes, now I realize I should vote Republican.”

It’s easy to be financially successful when you say things your financial overlords like to hear.

This has always been part of the GOP playbook: Downplay incidents of right-wing violence, and then repurpose them as supposed acts of leftist terrorism for public consumption. They first did this in 2020.

Bondi: "We've been living through a horrific cycle of political violence in this country ... night after night antifa wrecks havoc on the streets of our cities. In Minnesota, a gunman murdered a state lawmaker and her husband."

China put Trump in a corner. Every way out hurts. www.barrons.com/articles/chi...

China's latest threat to clamp down on exports of rare earths appears to have blindsided President Donald Trump. The Chinese plan "came out of nowhere," Trump said Friday in a social media post.
"Nobody has ever seen anything like this."
Beijing's escalation of the trade fight has put the Trump administration on the backfoot at a moment of weakness. China's actions show that the U.S. is vulnerable to economic pressure, and China has forced the administration to choose between further escalation or a humiliating climbdown.

None of the people sitting at the anti-antifa round table with Trump today would exist if it weren't for Twitter. None of these people would flourish without rage baiting the algorithms. And this is where we are now.
