    MAGAts are being played for fools every single day, and they’re too dumb to know it

    back in April: 90 deals in 90 days, our phone is blowing is up with countries trying to contact us and make a deal

    fast forward to now: zero deals done, and now they’re saying many countries never even contacted them

    idiocracy at its finest

    Lol do you realize how utterly pathetic you must be to have other countries not even contact you cus they hate your guts?

    MAGATS- "call us to make a deal or else we'll **** your economy"
    Developing countries- "**** off"
    MAGATs "Noone is contacting us to make a deal!"

    Single handedly driving every other nation into the arms of China, and for what?

    no country trusts these incompetent fools

    the damage they are doing to the future of the United States is astronomical…we can never be trusted again because none of the countries have assurances that another low IQ chaotic republican regime won’t get voted back into power in the future and we’re right back to the fckery, buffoonery, and instability

    I'm very happy that 77 million voted for Trump and I'm also very happy that so far he's kept his campaign promises, other than Epstein.

    All I will tell you is I had to deal with Biden selling us out to China and his Green New Scam inflation is transitory BS.

    You're going to have to deal with Trump doing what he told you he was going to do on the campaign trail. It's going to be a long 4 years.

    Have you noticed other countries/companies are investing in the USA?

    I have noticed that Trump talks a big game but can’t close on the trade deals with other countries.

    I have noticed that Trump is getting abused by Xi and Putin

    I have noticed that Trump lied to MAGA about deporting all illegals and is making carve outs because our economy relies on exploiting illegal alien labor.

    I have noticed that Trump is giving me tax breaks I don’t need at your expense.

    I have noticed that MAGA is too stupid to realize Trump clowned you guys.

    I have noticed that your answer for everything is 77 million people voted for Trump.

    "A bee can't convince a fly that honey tastes better than sh-t"

    What I learned is 77 million people would rather eat sh-t.

    Price of eggs dramatically reduced?
    Russia Ukraine War over in 24 hours?
    Israel Gaza War over in 24 hours?
    Deporting illegals starting with those with a criminal record?
    Deporting illegals regardless of criminal record?
    Never reduce Medicaid benefits?
    Eliminate waste and fraud?
    etc.

    Trump said he would do a bunch of things on the campaign trail. Some of his campaign promises were kept; some were not. I guess if you ignore the counter examples, Trump is doing what he promised.

    You forgot to mention Trump removed export controls from bidens term. Biden was the first POTUS ever to implement technology export controls.

    Trump withdraws export controls allowing China to import advanced chips = america first

    Biden installs export controls = hes selling us out to China lol

    @raining threes these MAGA are sincerely some of the dumbest people on planet earth

    I don't want him doing anything for 4 years to be honest.
    I am not worried about promises being kept because his promises are not good for the country.

    The no tax on tips is a scam as it has a 25k deduction limit...
    The no tax on overtime is also a tax deduction with low limits...
    No tax on SS is also phony...

    1. Price of eggs have been reduced and food prices have stabilized.
    2. Didn't workout.
    3. Didn't happen in 24 hours, it took 120 days
    4. I'm glad he's deporting illegals because I understand the definition of the word ILLEGAL. However the ILLEGALS that mostly are getting arrested are ILLEGALS that are around the criminal ILLEGALS.
    5. He's requiring able body people to work 20 hrs a week to qualify for medicaid and kicking ILLEGALS off of the Medicaid rolls. This seems very reasonable to me.
    6. He had DOGE point out where much of the waste is and has done what he can like shutting down federal building that aren't being used. Trying to shutdown fraudulent orgs like USAID. Judges tried to stop that, so Trump put that org in Rubio's job description which was brilliant. There are other cuts he's made to clean this crap up but he really can only do so much because he's not a King. Congress really need to fix this but they wont because many of them benefit from these fraudulent orgs. I cant believe there's about 1/3 of the country that are fine with the status quo.
