Before the election: Biden inflation! Biden inflation! LOOK AT THESE EGG PRICES!! Vote Trump to fix the inflation! Inflation bad!
Now: Inflation good. I love inflation. I did it on purpose.
MAGA: baaa baaa!
Inflation is one of those big words, kinda like ‘economist’ or ‘groceries.’ When you’re a MAGA, how can you be expected to know these things?
“The less you know, The less you have to do!”
~MAGA~
- That didn’t happen.
- And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.
- And if it was, that’s not a big deal.
- And if it is, that’s not my fault.
- And if it was, I didn’t mean it.
- And if I did, you deserved it. <-
We got here on this subject a lot quicker than I expected honestly.
Oh don’t worry, we’ll hit the other points again real soon. Consistency is not this guy’s strength
10 years after he got elected president?
On tanking the economy
I’ve been thinking this basically the whole time with the second administration. It’s the most conspiracy oriented I’ve ever been, but I genuinely think there is a non zero chance that the entire goal of this administration has been to crash the dollar and world economy to force the globe into a position where digital currencies take over nation state derived currency as the foundation of global markets. I’d say I’m 5-10% confident this is the case, which is very high.
That their goal is to destabilize not just the world, but the very concept of nation-states to be replaced with a corporate/privately owned concept of a nation state or state level actor.
I know there are specific conspiratorial threads on this concept but I e intentionally avoided looking into those. I think there is ample evidence at the surface only to have this kind of suspicion.
I don’t think it’s the entire goal, but I do think that it is a goal of certain people in this admin. I think Steven Miran’s section in project 2025 outlined a way to crash the value of the USD.
And it’s definitely for the purpose of creating company scrip.
Occam’s Razor continues to be that the orange pedophile simply did not want those pesky Epstein files out
If we were to apply Occam’s Razor fully it would be.
A doddering old imbecile that has had a clear mental decline and has a history of terrible decisions is continuing to be in mental decline and make terrible decisions.
Correct
Yeah, before 2016, he said he was going to run the government like one of his businesses. Then he started to run it like one of his businesses. Now it’s running like one of his businesses. I think that’s the most parsimonious explanation.
Absolutely. Occam’s razor would be his Wharton professor was right, he’s the “dumbest goddamn student he had ever” and he absolutely believed tariffs were magical weapons to both make the economy strong and enrich himself, that he was invincible and immune to repercussions per usual re Epstein, and that as usual he could use sociopathic vengeance and corruption to just fake it the entire way to being the greatest president in history, and that the nation would probably not only put his face on Mr Rushmore, but also make him king willingly.
he’s a russian asset and he’s running the whole country into the ground because that’s what putin wants
Russia is small time, Trump is working for international concerns (probably unawares)
Terrible decisions for the free world, but he and his buddies are making bank.
The people around him, for sure.
But him? I remember a few years ago, someone did an analysis of his assets and what he inherited from his father and determined that if he had done literally nothing, he would have had more money.
I don’t think it has to be either/or. The buffoon is running a circus, but his administration is trying to install themselves in permanent control of everything
I had very similar thoughts, but I think now that’s is just old fashioned greed and they’re doing all they can to collect as much money as possible. They don’t care if the American economy crashes because they’re not depending on it. A lot of useful idiots are sucked into the maelstrom and will suffer with the rest of us, but the insanely rich will be fine.
It’s also not just one thing. Some may want to bury the Epstein files, but the rest of them just want to be insanely rich. Everyone has a different reason to be in on the grift. And they do it because they believe they can get away with it. I don’t think it’s much more complicated than that.
Get ready for all the magamushferbrainz to start saying how inflation is good for us and they looooove high gas prices.
He’s under 30% approval? Just who are the remaining 20-some percent of people that think he’s doing good on the economy?
Look, I get why the centimillionaires, billionaires, and centibillionaires would support Republican policies. They stand to make buckets more.
But if you are not in that stratosphere, why would you think he’s doing you any favors?
He’s not under 30 percent, it’s 35 at the lowest. The evangelicals are solid behind him, as they expect him to help bring about the rapture, where the world gets drowned in lakes of blood and fire. Not joking. Here is the polling.
feels like 30% of population everywhere votes for money stealing fascists just because they promise to fuck over someone else
Now you know 30 percent of the American population are the most vile people you have ever experienced. Keep that in mind when speaking to a MAGAt.
Just a nit: centi- means 10-2, so centimillion would be 10,000.
Hecto- is 10+2
He’s under 30% approval? Just who are the remaining 20-some percent of people that think he’s doing good on the economy?
More important is “where are all the people who oppose him and what are they doing?”… if the answer is something along the lines of “sulking in silence”, they might as well not exist as far as the orange pedophile in chief is concerned
Approval rates mean nothing without action.
So far, the latest push of the goal post says they will do something about it in November… but IMO, waiting for that is just another huge leap of faith
Have you heard his farts on TV? He sure loves inflation alright.
Every day these MAGAts are more Vile.

Just wait, you haven’t seen anything yet, it’s going to get a whole lot more stupid.
Man is asked about inflation and says the hit to the stock market was worth it. The man literally does not understand inflation.
Perfectly reasonable.
Has this story made it to OAN news, NewsMax, and similar? The people who need to hear it are the people who voted for him.
It looks like they’re not reporting on it yet, if they ever will. I did see an article about how he’s “containing” the inflation the democrats created. I don’t think this is an audience that will check primary sources, so their media outlets can pretty much say whatever they want as long as it confirms the audience’s assumptions.
They already claim they’ll suffer for the “greater good”. Otherwise known as, “I’ll suffer but I won’t admit I was wrong”.
“He said it would be tough. Trust the process.”
Heard this a lot already.
He’s also now saying it’s his idea again, and not that Israel was doing it and drug him along.
Fucker just says anything
we’re there, folks!!! we made it through the looking glass!!
