Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

SAD!
Giving him the headlines for saying shit like this is, exactly what he desires. Because it works.
That's why I like the rule you put up in your politics community about only posting things he's done or actually doing.
Thanks Sir Patrick. :) Unfortunately, I had to lock it and have me as the only one posting. It was really hard to get people to understand what that meant.
Oh, I didn't realize that (Just though you were the most active).
I always appreciated that it was smaller and was a bit of a hidden gem. This community gets...charged a little too often (that's an intentional understatement lol). The only other one I kind-of liked was Beehaw's, but lately it's just a lot of knee-jerk comments of little substance.
If you ever decide to re-open it, I'm not interested in modding, but I can be sure to report things.
Thanks, I'll keep that in mind and I appreciate the kind words. I set it up to kind of keep track and share if people were interested. It was getting where people didn't understand the vibe. It seemed they were well intentioned, but it just got too hard to keep saying the same things. I don't want to ban people who are doing what they think is helpful either. It'll probably stay locked.
But please, if you see people shit stirring or trolling, report it. I only ban for a few days for the non-serial or non-serious stuff anyway. It seems to keep the professional trolls away.
Thanks again.
As long as his lies are allowed to spread nothing will get better.
Someone needs to muzzle that dog!
It actually is kinda Biden’s fault. See, under Biden, the economy actually grew last year, which is why this makes Trump look so bad.
Also, that he ran for 2024, which is at least part of what allowed the current situation...

Didn't Trump at one point claim Joe wasn't actually doing anything and it was Trump that was running the country in the 2020 term?
Authoritarians always paint their opposition as simultaneously weak and incapable, and strong and manipulative.

Irony is, a lot of his policies existed through Biden's term and just expired recently. Trump is literally blaming himself.

lol bitch got BDS
When the Trumpers crawl through the rubble Trump has turned their country into, they'll still think "how could Biden ever do this to us?"
That's what they'll be told to think and they'll believe it. It was the Biden Deep Dish State.
He completely transparent to us, but the vast majority of Republicans eat this up. A mob of 77 million eager wpuld-be nazis is lending him a lot of momentum, it seems.
I would normally agree with the general sentiment that the POTUS gets both too much value and too much credit for the economy, and that particularly early in a term we are usually still seeing the results of older policy.
Except that in Trump's case he has spent the first 100 days in office implementing policies with nearly universal agreement that there will be an immediate negative impact. Drastic, nonsensical EO's like mandating commerical truck drivers speak English. The tarrif nonsense. Threatening global war with the talk of annexing Greenland, Canada, and Mexico. Etc.
Sounds to me like someone is getting a little bit yippie?
So Q2 will also be Biden? How about Q3? Biden? Q4?
For being sleepy joe. He sure is awake causing problems for Trump. Mastermind Joe.
He's obviously in a bunker somewhere with a clone of Hunter's laptop! This is why that Ukrainian company gave Hunter all that money ($3 million ) back when Joe was still VP, they knew in 2013 that in 2025 the people would be stupid enough to re-elect Trump and he would be doing the same thing as the first go just cranked to 11! Joe has been a manchurian candidate this whole time waiting to sabotage Trump to help Ukraine against Trump's handlers. /s
You know, I can see this easily believed by the MAGA faithful. Just has to come from Fox or Newsmax, then it's from God's mouth....to the cults ears.
Yes, but somehow Q4 2024 was all Trump.
The Bidens will continue until the economy improves.
Honestly surprised he hasn't started blaming Obama.
the good economy was lost in hillary's emails.

Yes, comrades, Emmanuel Goldstein has struck again. Obviously this is all his doing.
You know, I made the exact same comment and made the exact same prediction yesterday, while watching their dumbass "first 100 days" press breifing. I would normally say that great minds think alike, however the damn book was not supposed to be an instruction manual.
Even after eliminating all those government programs and laying off/firing all those federal employees, Biden still somehow controls the economy!!! If only we could elect a new POTUS to right the ship!!!
Even after eliminating all those government programs and laying off/firing all those federal employees,
the federal government still managed to spend over $200 billion more in BLOTUS' first 100 days than same time frame last year.

While I do admit it's impossible for one administration to improve/fix a nation's economy in one year... But It doesn't take much effort to run a already crumbling economy into the ground. Edit: I'm agreeing with yall. Just like Republicans expected Biden to "fix" the economy in is first 100 days, it's literally impossible. But dumb ass Trump can sure as hell drive a already broken economy right off the cliff in 100 days.

I mean we all knew he was going to say this. Why do we even bother asking anymore?
I don't think anyone asked, he threw some burgers at the wall and somebody read it like tea leaves
