OFFICIAL LRC President Donald Trump SECOND TERM Thread

Am I the only one that finds it comical that Trump is doing this Oval Office pressers where everyone stands behind him and rattles off little speeches while he sits slumped in his chair with his right lip sagging and falling deep asleep?

It is freekin hilarous. The people behind him are trying to speak with vigor and zeal and they don't even know Spanky is sound asleep. Only waking up when he hears some type of praise of himself.

Murica!

Like people threatening judges and democrat politicians that Trump names in a post? Or like the violent mob that attacked the Capitol and Trump pardoned so they could go commit more crime? All threats and violence should be taken seriously and prosecuted. But one very good way to slow it down is less angry, threatening, violent rhetoric from the current president.

Don Snoreleone.

Dementia Don has left the building. Or, his brain certainly has.

It's pretty easy to end a war if you started it yourself.

Netanyahu started the war.

Actually the orange d*ckwad is finding out it’s NOT quite so easy.

Wait, I thought this would've been the 12th war the Trump ended? That's at least a 1200% reduction in Wars. Blessed be, Donald T!

The World is far safer and more prosperous because of Trump.

Maybe David Washington can play Trump in the biopic

trump is also the guy who took the most tariffs off. If you count the ones the court ordered him to take off.

Anyway.

New low for Piggies' net approval, and a new high for the Dems in the generic ballot. Sleepy Piggy should continue to say affordability is a hoax. that should work.

Meanwhile, as soon as china decides to stop drawing down its petroleum reserves, oil will jump another $20-$50 per barrel. All by piggie's hand. This one man is destroying the world economy.

Credible, factually supported arguments can be made that the Israel Lobby (Zio) manipulated Trump into attacking Iran at significant cost to America, and largely for Israel's benefit. Guys like Tucker Moscow Carlson, Marjorie Traitor Brown (MTB), Bankrupt Alex Jones, up-and-coming, next GOP candidate for president Nick Gomez Fuentes, and other media celebs are making such arguments.

Does the Israel Lobby in America hold such vast influence over Trump? They certainly have a history of influencing other administrations, and placing advisors and decision-makers at the highest levels of US government. But could they actually get a president to attack a country the size of Iran, half-way around the world, and that is not anywhere near an immediate threat to American territory? It's a source of debate, for sure.

FFS it wasn't the 'lobby' it was that trump admires strongman long-surviving politicians like Bibi and trusts them WAY more than his own advisors. Piggie admires Putin, Xi, the NK guy, Bibi, formerly Orban. That's who piggie admires and listens to. Those guys know how to stay in power, and trump wants to learn from them and bend over whenever possible.

It's not the 'lobby.' it's trump's weakness and anti-democratic nature that made him listen to Bibi.

He ignored the 'lobby' because they have no power.

Trump's reflecting pool paint job is now 628% over budget. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Of course it was a no-bid contract to some buddies that had worked on swimming pools at his golf courses, as if that qualifies then for a project of this scope on a National Monument.

And unlike Trump's fake-math percent decreases, the amount WAY over budget is actually a real number.

Trump: "It's an affordibility hoax"Maybe Not !

"Chief executives broadly expect inflation to rise 3.7% over the next 12 months, according to a quarterly report from the Cleveland Fed’s Center for Inflation Research released Monday.
The Cleveland Fed’s Survey of Firms’ Inflation Expectations comes just as the Bureau of Labor Statistics will release the Consumer Price Index for April on Tuesday. It’s expected to show inflation has already climbed to 3.7%, as energy prices have surged on the conflict in the Middle East. That would be up from 3.3% in March."

some forecasters think we'll have 5-6% inflation in June. All because of Piggie. Every last bit above the normal 2-3% is because of Piggie and those who voted for him.

We won't have the number reported until July or August tho.

$300 for groceries and $60 to fill the tank, nope, sorry, Donald, no "ballroom money" left for you, cost of living, son.

For a self-styled macho man he seems to spend a lot of time on YMCA, beauty pageants, ballrooms, and pouting about anything and everything. He's almost a Real Housewife he cries so much.

How much money did we spend on migrants under Sleepy Joe?

Based on who he's trying to send the bills for his wall (Mexicans will cover it) or ballroom (donors pledged), I see how the casinos fail. He has a shallow grasp of finance and his idea of finessing it is bully the vendors or pass the bill. You don't demolish the old building before you've financed the replacement. Cuts a bunch of programs with DOGE then decides to give tax cuts where we owe more than when we started.

I wouldn't loan him $10 and expect it back.
