She Never claimed to Start Wars if that's what your trying to say 🇺🇸

Natalia's avatar

What I mean is that voters thought she would start wars because she’s a woman and “too emotional”. But here we are, with trump making everyone hate the US. I do not think she would’ve started anything to make myself clear

If it were Taco Bell, the only way that it would affect me adversely would be that it would make me hungry.

I have wondered why not, and has Trump been asked by the press repeatedly until he answers?

Trump said there were no tariffs on Russia 'because we don't do business with Russia' then he started deflecting and saying words about the attacks on Ukraine (nonsensical). He hasn't been probed (to my knowledge) as to why so many other countries have been slapped with tariffs, who don't have trade with the US, or are even inhabited by humans!

I believe one excuse was because they don't want to interfere in the peace negotiations, but he did tariff Ukraine, so obviously that's not it.

I think this was the time when he was saying that Russia had done a 'very bad thing' (recommencing the bombing) so he had plans to talk to Putin as he (trump) was 'very angry.' 🙄

But why not North Korean, because they're sending troops to Ukraine to fight for Russia?

That's obscene.

People already can't afford essential medications. Adding tarriffs will make affording them impossible for some.

That’s his plan. The elderly are the largest consumer of Pharmaceuticals. Many are already struggling to pay for them. This will be genocide on the elderly population of our country.

I believe that is 100% the point. More dead seniors = less social security payments and less medicare and less people to vote against him.

But, an awful lot of seniors voted for Trump as people (myself excluded) tend to become more conservative in old age. They're also the biggest group of Faux watchers. Just like with his Covid response, he's killing off his supporters.

Michael Thacker's avatar

Yes, with medications next on his agenda to add tariffs to, they will only get more expensive for them—that is, if one can afford them at all. It will raise either the cost the insurance companies pay, which will "trickle" down to us, or it will raise out-of-pocket costs. It's not good either way!

To be blunt . . . I've come to define this "Tactic" as Genocide by Neglect. And so it begins. . . And continues! Eyes open that you may see the truth, Ears Listening that you may Hear the truth. and possess the wisdom to determine the difference.

This will be interesting. My husband is retired military. Our meds are paid by the military. I wonder how long we will be able to have that now with prices going up. I doubt very seriously that will be something they will continue to foot the bill for. What about other insurance? This is going to get ugly.

My son has epilepsy and the medications were the first thought that came to my mind. They are outrageously expensive already at nearly $700/mo. Navigating this ones without meds is a tough thing to do. I hope you stay well my friend! I wish so badly it was different for you and many others ♥️

the passport is a problem. but if you can solve that i would apply to be an english teacher in japan or korea. or anything like that. they have lots of programs for people from english speaking countries. i am in europe, i dont know what they offer here exactly, but maybe worth looking into as well.

Scott Bessent is a total fucking moron with that statement that Wall Street had it good for 4 years and now it’s main streets turn. Who tf do you think is pulling their money out. Wall Street. Who’s losing, Main Street. I don’t get when Americans are going to say enough is enough. The Dems are doing what they can, about time, but no one is going to save us but us. We need a massive immobilization like we had this past weekend with “ Hands Off” but bigger. That’s the only way to scares these little dick Republicans in the house to stop this shit. This is insane and I know no one here voted for this. Now the IRS is cooperating with ICE to deport the tax paying immigrants. Do people really want their kids working nights and not going to school??? It’s time to wake up.
