The Official President Trump Thread - Second Term Edition

You lost me at “from Rasmussen”

This is the kind of take that has me convinced you guys are secret liberals who pose as Trumpers to make Trumpers looks as dumb as possible.

 

right/wrong direction is a different measure than are tariffs good/bad.

 

much @adoo about nothing

 

basso is, again, parroting intellectually dishonest convenient spin

https://www.forexlive.com/news/reut...p-tariffs-during-appeal-temporarily-20250529/

the post that basso has parroted intentionally ommitted the word temporarily


US appeal court reinstates Trump tariffs during appeal temporarily


the keyword is "temporarily". The temporary is to allow for a formal appeals process to take place​

 

What's the point of this?

 

it's official,

as a point of reference,

• Biden's last Q in office, the GDP grew 2.4%
• under Biden and Trump 1.0, the GDP grew every quarter, even w the COVID shutdown

You never mentioned you wrote a memoir.

 

Founded in 1916, The Conference Board is the member-driven think tank that delivers trusted insights---including surveys/polls of CEO Confidence---for what’s ahead. Its mission has been to help leaders navigate the biggest issues impacting business and better serve society.

According to its most recent survey, CEO Confidence fell by 26 points in the second quarter of 2025 to 34. This was the largest quarter-over-quarter decline in the history of the survey, which started in 1976.

We'll have to see how this story plays out.

Feds: Family of Mexican girl in LA hospital not facing immediate deportation

 

They only said this because of the media outrage. They had given her a deportation order before the news went viral

 

Absolutely. Thankfully the little girl's family has a good lawyer.

I'm disappointed there's not a hell of a lot more outrage in this country.

 

@deb4rockets purging the FBI of every female supervisor

 

I'm not on Twitter, so I can't read that. I don't know any details, or haven't about every female supervisor being fired. I know they did that in the military though, and know Hegseth's bigoted view of women. That dude didn't command anything larger than a platoon though, and should have never been appointed as Secretary of Defense, that's for sure. I hope Patel isn't the same way about women, but again, he wasn't the most qualified choice either, just a butt kissing loyalist who defends Trump's lies and criminal acts.

 

This is the defense secretary literally just today questioning if female soliders should even be in the military



Signing up to die for your country only to be undermined cuz youre a female is wild

 

Israel doesn't even have uniforms designed to fit women in combat, even though they make up 20%. Hegseth's opinions on women in the military are bigoted, and I feel sorry for any women in the military with that pompous and disrespectful jerk in charge.

As more women head to war, IDF uniforms designed for men expose female troops to risks

The army’s one-uniform-fits-all approach means a fifth of combat soldiers are operating in clothes, vests and other gear unsuited to their physiques, harming safety and effectiveness

The problem goes beyond comfort or looks, say industry experts. Ill-fitting protective vests or helmets can leave female troops exposed to danger, heavier gear can subject their bodies to unneeded wear and tear, and awkwardly cut uniforms can reduce mobility.

Gear that’s made for the female body structure can directly improve accuracy in hitting targets, reduce the risk of injuries during training, and provide better protection against shrapnel.
