    This is exactly what they meant. They don’t care that their ranks are full of pedophiles, rapists, thieves, traitors and murderers. They just want to make a show of the otherside ia bad too and make a spectacle of brining those guys in for highly publicized trials with fixed results so the bad person gets punished regardless of what the evidence says. If the accused has an ® next to their name then its a witch-hunt and all evidence is faked by the deep state. If there is no ® then its not politically motivated, even when the orange flat out says its retribution for something else.

    While 100% in the don’t fake it camp, please also remember us men are not mind readers and our equipment works different. Much like with cooking and cleaning, if you don’t tell us what we are doing wrong or better yet show us the right way, we are going to assume we did our part cause we got the result we wanted and you didn’t complain or ask for something different.








  • If you make a couple million dollars as a middle class person, without familial connections, you’ve at best committed fraud on a massive scale, or been involved in something highly illegal.

    Median income in the US is between 37K and 80K depending where you look and what figures you use. At 80K, it would take a person 12.5 years to make a million dollars. That’s not paying taxes, not paying living expenses, and generally somehow living in a bubble where you owe nothing and get to keep 100% of the check. In a more realistic scenario where half that income is taxed or expended on living expenses, that’s 25 years per million.

    Between inflation and price gouging by vendors and retailers of popular products, nobody alive today with a middle class job is ever going to have a hope of saving up a million dollars, there is no ‘lifestyle’ choices a person can make even with a well paying job that’s ever going to see them become a millionaire in their lifetime, let alone a multimillionaire without fraud or illegal activity.

    The cheapskate nepotist who has better relationships with dictators from authoritarian regimes than statesman from his own country is absolutely full of shit when it comes to giving Americans the best deal possible. The fact that the USMCA didn’t turn into a dumpster fire was over Trump’s own protestations to things the negotiators forced in to not yank the rug out from consumers.

    We’re still dealing with the after effects of his numerous Trade Wars and unjust Tariffs. Anyone thinks Trump gives a damn about American workers needs to wake up and stop drinking the kool-aid.
