Serial liar admits to lying. gasp. No wait, let me try again…ahem…
gasp.yeah no. Just can’t work up even a bit of fake shock.Yeah, no kidding.
Gonna have to get a soundboard app where I can load up that Samuel Jackson clip…anyone have good recommendations?
You counteract inflation by making sure people’s wages also change to reflect the new value of the dollar. Which they haven’t.
Prices don’t come down unless you enter a period of deflation. And if you thought inflation sucked, deflation sucks even more. Especially for a nation of people who hold a lot of debt. As the value of current grows, so does the value of your debt. If you have debt, your debt burden increases.
So, he’s not even in office and already squirming out of his promise…
Did not even wait for his throne to be able to uphold he tried something.
Perhaps he’ll say he had a concept of a plan but it was bad.
where are those shifty italians when you need them?
Regrettably, awaiting trial.
He didn’t so anything of the sort. Does no one read the articles?
And the article reads like a Trump endorsement. Those quotes will sound great to your average American without context.
Oh look, the well-known con artist that you voted for in hopes that he would not con you has conned you! What a surprise!
Now we’re all stuck with this scumbag. I hope you’re all happy.
Even if he weren’t evil and a liar, it’s proven he’s an imbecile of the lowest order only a tier above his supporters.
Right. Dingus probably has zero idea of not only how inflation works, but how the price gouging was being done by elites and being blamed on “inflation”.
Donald Trump breaking a promise? Whatever will happen next?
Air is gas
Sounds like a woke conspiracy to run cars on air just to take jobs away from blue-collar oil and gas workers. Coal-rolls away in a lifted F-350 with aftermarket Cybertruck style headlights

Thanks for voting suckers
Stop blaming the voters and start blaming the democrats for being completely dogshit at selecting popular candidates and running an engaging campaign.
The democratic candidate was crap, so I voted for moronic Hitler. Making the country a terrible place for everyone oughta teach those dems to pick better candidates! /s
Keep on acting like that. I’m sure it will do wonders in attracting more voters and winning elections :-). Democrats lost to the couch, not to trump. People are apathetic to their milquetoast neoliberalism.
Like look. You were up against moronic hitler and you lost. Thats says more about you than the voters.
Maybe you just need to come to terms with this is what the electorate wanted. I’m sure you can find something wrong with any candidate the Dems put on the ticket but the choices this last election were clear on differences and we saw how that turned out.
There’s plenty of evidence of voter suppression and election interference, plus the fact that bullet ballots were like 500% higher in only swing states than every other election in history.
I’m not sure we can definitively say that this is what the electorate wanted.
Oof true but Lemmy doesn’t want to hear that. The “Beatings will continue until you vote for Wall Street’s Candidate” crowd hit Lemmy hard during the campaign and they convinced a lot of people that it was the voter’s fault if Democrats lost.
I’m reasonably sure there’s plenty of room to blame both.
But there’s only one that can be changed. You have to meet voters where they’re at. You can’t just constantly wish that they’ll pick the boring corporate centrist democrats keep pushing forward.
I say we blame both. People that abstained, voted 3rd party, voted for Trump out of spite, etc. deserve their share of the blame for allowing the absolute worst president in history to have a second term. The DNC is to blame for running a campaign and candidates so milquetoast that people felt the desire to protest vote. Both things are true.
but what will happen to that stupid old lady he keeps yapping about … will she buy just two apples instead of three?? someone think of the imaginary old lady !!
As a matter of fact, grocery store prices will likely become far worse because of his tariffs and deportation policies.
It’s always the opposite with this cotton-headed ninny-muggins.
If only everyone had some warning that he lies a lot!
so he’s not president yet and already backing out of his election pledges… we can only hope it’ll piss off his electorate, but it won’t, they’ll just get angrier at opponents
I love that we treat politics as team sports. Even the use of the word opponent implies you aren’t working toward common goals.
that’s just the thing comservatives turned the entire system into game “us vs them” and liberal joimed in a bit later as they lack the capacity to redefine the game. Progressives get shunned by their respective wings and orthodoxy gets entrenched making it even more of “us vs them”. I’d love to find a way to abolish parties and force representatives to actually represent all people from their electorate area… but I’m a dreamer.
They stopped working together decades ago.
They now work exclusively for their corporate overlords. The rest is a dog and pony show for the voters.
