Old people were giving up their identity because they won tickets to a cruise.

They aren’t ready for the new scams that are about to come.

It’s going be bad.. the amount of dumb shhh I’ve seen people get got by that’s seemingly obvious and just a tiny bit of skepticism woulda saved people.. and this ain’t dumb people

Talking email and/or phone stuff or like Facebook stuff.. I’m like the internet been around for a while how y’all getting got to this degree

This is what you wanted. No reason to blame Biden for predictable outcomes

I can’t wait until that day comes when Americans learn how tariffs work

 

[kdawg]

At least now it will be true that if you don’t buy coffee every day you’ll be able to afford a house…

 

[Wargames]

Trump is putting tariffs on coffee? Is he ******* stupid? Damn near every adult in America is addicted to that ****. I am not being facetious it’s very addicting and people are not going to take this well.

 

[mplsdunk]

Man just tariff all the fast fashion to high hell and call it good. I’d actually be on board with that.

It’s practically slave labor to make it, it’s destroying the environment and crazy consumerism.

Don’t worry, it’s only going to be a measly 50% tariff next week…

Guess we’ll all be switching to coffee

At this point, screw it—blow it all up! Let every country follow suit. Sure, America’s self-sufficient, but no one’s trying to spend the extra cash to keep it running. Chaos would hit real quick when all the hipsters who skipped voting can’t get their Starbucks fix, and the MAGA crowd can’t afford their morning Joe anymore. Let’s see how that plays out.

Back to not being able to spell.. but get rid of department of education

Just for conversation:

But how did China and others pull ahead technologically, especially over the U.S.? Makes you wonder if all this social media obsession, the rush to make quick cash by doing dumb stuff online, and creating a culture of participation over competition played a part. Did we end up coddling the next generation straight to their own downfall?

It’s cultural and the only thing I agree with that idiot Vivek Ramaswamy on.

In China you’d be an outcast for being a bad student and having no ambition.

In the US, unless you’re lucky enough to have parents who can send you to a good private school or buy a $1 million+ house near a good public school, you mostly get laughed at for being a nerd and trying too hard.

That same mentality still exists in Trump voting adults who failed in school and now are trying to rewrite history by saying it was the school’s fault for focusing on DEI/transgender agendas instead of educating them and their idiot kids.

Yes I’m sure the transgender agenda is why you failed intro to Algebra and can’t read past a 3rd grade level. DEI and affirmative action are why you don’t know Puerto Rico is part of the U.S. and why you think Obama was in office during the 9/11 attacks

 

[keko jones]

This scumbag is absolutely despicable. According to him, everything was fine. But as Mayor, he could’ve pushed back, organized better housing logistics instead of tossing people into five-star hotels, and handled things tougher from the start. Nope, my dude, the previous administration didn’t hurt New York City—you did that all on your own with your poor decisions and downright ineptitude. Now that the heat’s on and you’re being investigated, you’re out here publicly trashing your own party, hoping for a lifeline or a pardon for being a loyal lapdog. Pathetic and despicable.

Just look on the bright side: at least the lesser of two evils didn't win. What would we have done then?

Sorry, it's hard not to be petty. I swear if I ever hear anyone saying they can't vote for the lesser evil in real life, I'd have to dig down really deep to not slap the hell out of them.

….. uhhh yeah, the US doesn’t value education like other nations. Those places have elite discipline as well

Trump:

“You don’t agree? BOOM! TARIFF!”

“I don’t like it. BOOM. Here’s an executive order with my signature. The greatest signature of all of the signatures.”

It's funny some people think they're above the lesser of two evils when refusing to do so just lead to an insane amount of bad decisions in less than a week which will lead to death, displacement and disenfranchising. Got people hiding and we're still in January.

Liberals want to erase women. Trump is standing up for our most basic rights. | Opinion

Kudos to President Donald Trump for understanding why a return to common sense on gender will have long-lasting benefits for women and girls.

I know this is an opinion piece, but I wouldn’t have been able to publish it in good conscience. This headline is the equivalent of saying democrats want to deport all immigrants. But some people see it and believe it. Hell, there are people who voted for the current administration because they think **** like, “liberals want go erase women…” I don’t want to say give up on them, but they really may already be lost. Even when Trump does something that contradicts what he says or goes against why they supported him, they find a way to excuse it and blame someone else.
