Stock market futures are plunging this evening after President Donald Trump broke his silence on the economic fallout of new tariff threats, offering a full-throated defense of the policy despite intensifying market volatility.
Btw, if you saw that it said "former" President Trump, that was a typo because I copied and pasted his name from my notes, but I fixed it immediately so disregard!!
What do you mean "hopefully"? To quote this orange blimp "one way or another" you can safely bet your house, he WILL have the title 'former' before his name and it can't come soon enough!
Exactly! I honestly don’t understand how MAGA supporters are still standing by him and mocking us for speaking out.
My local news station posted about the rally at our capitol, and people were making fun of it and mocking the participants. I hate how deep in the cult some people are. They don’t even see how bad things have gotten.
At what point will Congress and the Senate finally step up and work together to remove him and his administration?
It does seem like some Republicans are stepping up to stop his hideous actions. We just need more of them to get on board with stopping Trump. At least it’s one step in the right direction.
MAGA also needs to open their eyes to what’s actually going on. But I guess that would be too hard, wouldn’t it? 🙄
I wish I had your optimism, but I just assume that it’s only gonna get worse. I still have hope they’ll especially after yesterday’s protest, which I gladly took part in, and I will gladly take part in any future. Demonstrations. We can’t stay silent.
Trump says he “would love” to send U.S. citizens to prisons in El Salvador. His dementia-riddled brain is decompensating so fast, he’ll be giving out the names of potential detainees by next week.
the entire country (world) are targets of his narcissistic rage, revenge. Losing in 2020 was the greatest wound a full blown pathological narcissist could incur
Agreed. All of his actions are the exact opposite of what a president could do to make Americans lives prosperous and joyful. He takes pure delight in implementing policies that will quite literally kill millions of people. He is pure evil.
Trump’s main agenda isn’t the economy—it’s to punish the American people for not having voted for him in 2020. That’s his aim, bar none. He could give two shits about manufacturing and the economy. His whole presidency is about vengeance and retribution against having lost the election four years ago.
He and his cronies may simply be doing this to buy up depressed stock at rock bottom and then reverse it all and become gazillionaires. He’s hollowed out the SEC so who will stop them? He doesn’t care about Americans, only himself, so there has to be massive grift involved.
Mikey Johnson is a spineless, piece of shit with no balls. Claiming he's a Christian is laughable. Christian Nationalist, sure, Christian, absolutely not. I hope to God he's voted out next year. He has to be the most vile thing to come out of LA. trump looking for an ball sucking loyalist? He sure got one in Mikey. Can't stand listening to trump, can't stand listening to Mikey.
Btw, if you saw that it said "former" President Trump, that was a typo because I copied and pasted his name from my notes, but I fixed it immediately so disregard!!
Hopefully someday soon, that ‘former’ will ring true
"The late" preceding the name has a nice ring to it. Simpsons said April 12, so we'll see
What do you mean "hopefully"? To quote this orange blimp "one way or another" you can safely bet your house, he WILL have the title 'former' before his name and it can't come soon enough!
The key part of my comment was *someday soon* - as in, before his 4 years are up
Yes you are absolutely correct. I should learn to carefully read people's comments before adding my own! My humble and grovelling apologies Moo!
No problem at all! Happens to the best of us!
From your lips to god’s ears
Or more likely, if you believe in such myths, "...to the devil's ears".
Hey! God is on Substack sooooo…..!!!!!
What would be great is if no one called him President ever! He is not worthy of that title!
He’s not my president… I am not calling him that ever.
Me either! I call him a lot of things but never President!
Exactly! I honestly don’t understand how MAGA supporters are still standing by him and mocking us for speaking out.

At what point will Congress and the Senate finally step up and work together to remove him and his administration?
I said the same thing. 100 percent agree with you
It does seem like some Republicans are stepping up to stop his hideous actions. We just need more of them to get on board with stopping Trump. At least it’s one step in the right direction.
MAGA also needs to open their eyes to what’s actually going on. But I guess that would be too hard, wouldn’t it? 🙄
We can only hope he gets removed from office after all the harm he’s doing
I saw it and commented to my husband that I loved that you called him former president. 🫣
I like the sound of "former" a whole lot better. It is so much easier to say.
Wishful thinking on our part
I can only wish.
Whoops.
Wishful thinking!
I got a little excited when I saw "former" lol. A girl can dream.
Damnit! It gave me a flicker of hope
I thought I had missed some very happy piece of breaking news!!!
Maybe that was just a case of a Freudian slip or perhaps it was wishful thinking…..
Wishful thinking, Aaron! Every day.
You think that at trump family dinners they sit around the table and laugh at us peasants.
He is such a lying piece of shit. I seriously want to SCREAM and THROW SHIT! 🤬
Make sure it’s a brick right at his head. He doesn’t use it anyway. And another at his heart or where his heart should be
With ya, since his first term.
🤔🤔🤔
IMPEACH and Imprison him
Living for the idea of him being dragged out of the White House in handcuffs!
Me too! On a daily basis.
Simultaneously!😫
He’s beyond evil. There aren’t even words to adequately capture how horrible of a human he is.
He’s a despicable piece of excrement.
Every night I go to bed thinking it can’t get much worse and everyday it continues to get way worse 🤦🏻♀️
I wish I had your optimism, but I just assume that it’s only gonna get worse. I still have hope they’ll especially after yesterday’s protest, which I gladly took part in, and I will gladly take part in any future. Demonstrations. We can’t stay silent.
April 19 is next one
It’s probably less optimism and more delusion at this point 😂😭
Meant though, not they’ll 🤪
Same🤦♀️
What is it going to take for republicans in congress to WAKE UP and DO SOMETHING. Getting Primaried will not be there main problem!
Some won’t. My brother is one. He calls my mom and I “sheep” for speaking out. Little does he know, I believe he’s the sheep.
Trump says he “would love” to send U.S. citizens to prisons in El Salvador. His dementia-riddled brain is decompensating so fast, he’ll be giving out the names of potential detainees by next week.
Well, since he too is a convicted felon, he should be first on board the next plane.
Love that! True statement
El Salvador if you’re listening we have a 34 time convicted felon and adjudicated rapist who needs prison!
Yeah, can they come pick him up in the middle of the night. He will be among the other people who goes missing.
Yes,please !
The dumb f**k should go drink a gallon of bleach. Period.
W-T-F 😳
Trump likes golden showers too… so his perspective of beautiful isn’t the same as the larger percentage of people!
How are we supposed to react to his statement? 🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
With fear is the desired effect but most common is the burning anger of “how dare he as President say such things”⁉️
the entire country (world) are targets of his narcissistic rage, revenge. Losing in 2020 was the greatest wound a full blown pathological narcissist could incur
Agreed. All of his actions are the exact opposite of what a president could do to make Americans lives prosperous and joyful. He takes pure delight in implementing policies that will quite literally kill millions of people. He is pure evil.
So is the Republican side of congress with their inaction.
Trump’s main agenda isn’t the economy—it’s to punish the American people for not having voted for him in 2020. That’s his aim, bar none. He could give two shits about manufacturing and the economy. His whole presidency is about vengeance and retribution against having lost the election four years ago.
He and his cronies may simply be doing this to buy up depressed stock at rock bottom and then reverse it all and become gazillionaires. He’s hollowed out the SEC so who will stop them? He doesn’t care about Americans, only himself, so there has to be massive grift involved.
Wow. When is congress going to do their jobs and take back the purse!?
Mikey Johnson is a spineless, piece of shit with no balls. Claiming he's a Christian is laughable. Christian Nationalist, sure, Christian, absolutely not. I hope to God he's voted out next year. He has to be the most vile thing to come out of LA. trump looking for an ball sucking loyalist? He sure got one in Mikey. Can't stand listening to trump, can't stand listening to Mikey.
There are no words for the disgrace this man has brought to our country. The devastation from his antics will live on for generations.
