President Elect's 'top team'

[mudman]

Teehee!

Oh dear

 

[RobinBHM]

I expect next you’ll be calling him ‘Donald ‘poopy pants’ Trump

well there have been rumours he wears an adult nappy, hence the name Diaper Don

also his ex lawyer used another term: " Michael Cohen, his former lawyer, said in a post on X last month: "Hey Von ShitzInPantz…"

 

[John Brown]

I think you'll find Delaney was saying that it was the epitome/ultimate/maximal/top/utmost/et al (take your pick) of left wing triumphalism. Why do you think he was trying to say "pique left wing triumphalism" it's meaningless.

I think you'll find most of what he writes is meaningless, consistent, if nothing else.
"Fit of peak" - that's meaningless, unless you're a milliner or something.

Yes, "Fit of peak" would be meaningless, but he didn't say "Fit of peak", he said "Fit of peak left wing triumphalism" which is perfectly understandable. The 'fit' was 'left wing triumphalism' not pique. You are misquoting to make a point that doesn't exist, very typical of MSM reporting these days.

Or a fell runner from Derbyshire, maybe?

Given that "stuff" happens to us all as we get old I wouldn't really be that bothered if he has trouble down below. I'm more concerned by the amount of excrement that comes out of his mouth.

Thanks for bringing the thread back on point.

left wing triumphalism.

never as bad as right wing Trumpalism

This is a good vid, by a sober financial commentator (he does like to do a bit more sensationalist vids about fraudsters, but they are still sober, with a few giggles). You should watch it to the end, not just take on board what he says in the first half without considering what he says in the second. 30 min vid.

I'll watch that one later, Croolis.

After I've had a bit of time to digest/recover from some of THE related stuff I've been looking at earlier today, primarily concerning DOGE.

What an absolute train wreck this is going to be for the average American, and far worse for the least wealthy. Exactly as was pointed out by people like you and I way before the election. As well as team Harris.
But morons will be morons, I guess.
Morons who have now thrown away their wive's and daughter's rights in exchange for cheaper eggs and 'gas'. I think we both knew that eggs and gas were never going to get any cheaper, and likely get more expensive under Trump.

Who would've thought that an election would be won on the price of eggs.
Meanwhile, morons have just realised that they and their kids will no longer get any funded health care. And they can't afford eggs and gas, never mind health insurance.

Sympathy for the conned. Within limits, though.

Same thing as down below.

The only difference is that, down below, it's his mess to clean up. When it comes out of his mouth, it's our mess to clean up.

 

[Croolis]

Professional political skank Marjorie Taylor Greene being looked at as chair of comittee that will do oversight on DOGE findings. As discussed in the vid, how much chance of DOGE recommendations, 'cos DOGE isn't actually a department and so has no power, going through will depend on the House. So presumably rubber stamped by MTG and then bullied into being by her (the nasty role is definitely hers, she'll enjoy being feared). I sort of see her like one of Hitler's disposable SS leader idiots - get them to do all the nasty stuff and just get rid of them when they become too much trouble to have around.

Very good video (and great deadpan humour).

So the answer to the main question posed by the video is basically "no", but whatever is done is likely to be harmful to Americans at the poorer end of the economic scale.

He does make some good points about the advantages of trimming governmental regulations, but of course we all know what happens when there isn't a regulation in an area to prevent the selfish from doing what they want (usually to line their own pockets whilst harming others).

"we will be charging China an additional 10% tariff, above any additional tariffs"

Donny still doesn't understand how tariffs work.
