The Refried Presidency: Trump Hateful Machine/Fossil Fuel Boogaloo or Whatever Continuation

Thinking The 13th Warrior

 

Fair enough. I'm pretty sure I don't have either one in my extended family, so I know I'm fortunate in that regard.

I'll disagree with the bolded. I think it would give a lot of people heart and encouragement to continue living.

 

Welp, our favorite Christian Dogkiller knows what Article I is.

I assume you meant to post this in The Doom Thread.

 

Certainly an outlier, but is at least in line with the general trends ticking up for Trump.

Not all that surprising now that DOGE and Elon Musk is largely out of the news.

Historically, still doing awful

 

Yes, Trump has always been extremely polarizing, you are not telling us anything new.

But you clearly get most of your life's jollies out of clowning Trump over his job approval and stock market fluctuations than there is any genuine concern over his administration. Like with the guys feigning concern over immigration and deporting actual gangmembers, it's all just a game for the afflicted.

 

The projection is MASSIVE in this one.

 

It's great, you're making assertions instead of just hanging out bland statements waiting for somebody to trip over them or something

 

Around 1am ET tonight, there's gonna be a big vote to do the following:
1) Cut funding to Medicare.
2) Cut funding to SNAP.
3) Tax cuts for the wealthy.

There's a reason why it's happening at 1am.

But I guess we're all getting tax cuts since we make more than MeeMaw and PawPaw down in the trailer park.

 

it's on cash tips only. Credit card tips still get taxed. Essentially, strippers benefit the most, while those servers and bartenders working in upscale restaurants(where most customers pay with a CC), get screwed. Having worked in the restaurant business during my younger days, it was rare for a restaurant to enforce paying taxes on your cash tips(via reporting it directly onto your manager so they can add it to your statement). The way to avoid it is to not deposit the majority of your tips into a bank account.

 

Time for that nap, grampa

Now we get more information about the 747, and it's starting to make sense.

This was never a gift - the White House was looking for a new Air Force One because the one Boeing is building won't be ready for years and Trump doesn't want the old thing he's flying now. So they saw this airplane that's been on sale for 5 years and inquired. Trump said it's a gift to make it more palatable for Americans because obviously it's outrageous for Trump to spend so much money on something that only serves his sense of self-aggrandizement and little to serve the head of state in his actual jobs.

When I worked at a restaurant, the boss essentially just picked a $/hr number that would keep everyone out of trouble and reported that. That way, if you got cut early on a slow night, it wasn’t a huge deal as you had made up for it by under-declaring most of your other nights.

 

C- rated polster, showing Trump climbing the approval latter.

Best poll will be the mid-terms. But you do you.

 

Don't stick your head in the sand, we can post pols that are bad for Trump and we can post pols that are good for him.

Facts matter.
