I don't get Trump's claim of drug prices are/will be decreased by 600%. Countless people must have explained that this means the drug companies would be paying people to take their drugs. This means 1. Trump is too stupid/feable to understand. Or 2. He's knowingly lying and doesn't care.

Good news - There is no way he will get the Trillion $'s. Tesla is tanking, his robots are lame, and there are way too many competitors in the AI space. He won't hit the required goals!

The only "economy" they look at is the stock market. It is up YTD, so in their minds the economy is great. Any day know the bubble will burst, and then what will they say?

And it is important to note that Obama played the majority of his rounds on courses on US military bases - decreasing the cost of additional security.

I was hoping this was a fake AI thing... Nope, it was posted on 9/20 on the actual Department of "War" site. As a Christian, I am appalled, and as an American, I am horrified.

Wait, are you saying the videos of the two dogs doing comedy podcasts are fake?

Politics aside, how on earth can anyone think this is an improvement? If he can make a bathroom this awful, I shudder to think what his ballroom will look like.

Yes, because "Hello, first cousin once removed" Just sounds so much better then "Hello, Auntie!" 🙄

"The will of the people" - mark my words, they will make it so only republican votes are counted. They will gerrymander or manipulate the elector college map so that it will be impossible for a democrat to win. Then they will point to the results and say "See, the will of the people"

That matches what I found too, and that's higher than I would have thought. Nonetheless, still nuts that we have a president who throws out whatever number pops into his head as actual facts.

Gas up 5%, electricity down 4% - honestly not as bad as I thought. But I would bet some serious coin that we will see a huge jump in these prices in the next few months. (Quick AI search, so 🤷🏼‍♂️ if the numbers are right, but seems close!)

What I don't get is what is he hoping to achieve? He can't have a vacation forever, so 🤷🏼‍♂️

What is shocking to me is that he has been saying this for months. So either he has no advisors that will tell him that this is mathematically impossible, or they are telling him and he does not listen. Either way, we have a non-functioning idiotic presidency.

What? I think this is the first time the US has allowed a foreign military to build a facility in the United States. We allow for training groups and other units, but a whole facility?

I think it is time for the National Guard to have a breakout of the "blue flu".

I too have wondered this - what percent of Republican congressional leaders actually support Trump in private? I think we would be shocked how many know they are on the wrong side of all of this, but feel pressured by greed or perhaps fear to publicly say they support him.
October 5, 2025 at 5:10 PM
And 95% of replies are level 0 or level 1. Including this one.

It is deliberate manufactured escalation.

Trump is not king, although he would want to be. He cannot just utter something into law. But your question was about policy, and I would say yes he can establish policy although that policy is unlawful.

This distinction is going to be very difficult for law enforcement, ICE agents, military...

It's a manufactured crisis - create an issue that requires the solution that you want. Like an arsonist firefighter starting a 5 alarm fire so he can go out on the truck.

We need more reporters from Missouri. All reporters need to be asking for proof. "Show me"

Show me these well-organized and funded organizations.

Show me the warzone in Portland.

Show me how these Venezuelan boats are an imminent danger to the United States.
