    Classic conservative mindset.

    Ignore a problem or demand that it cease to exist instead of figuring out how to solve it.

    They really are like children.

    If he must do this then I suggest the great migration to neighborhoods with wealthy conservative populations near DC, after all I’m sure the church going crowds will be falling over themselves to demonstrate their Christ like compassion they’ve long proclaimed to have.

      “Nice try, distracting us with an iron-fisted pogrom against the poorest residents of one of America’s wealthiest and most influential cities, Trump. But I’m not going to stop shitposting on a backwater of the internet.”

    Trump’s apparent plant:

    1. Take their money until they’re poor.
    2. Say it’s their own fault they’re poor.
    3. Punish them for being poor.

    This man would throw fellow Americans into a woodchipper if it would make people forget that he was best friends with a child sex trafficker

      Surely he wasn’t best friends with a child sex trafficker for long? It wasn’t decades was it?

          The problem with the epstein files for trump is there is a lot of indicators that he’s the next most implicated after maxwell.

          Yes. His beauty pageants (and probably many in general) served as trafficking operations, and all the adults involved knew it.

            Beauty pagents are just kinda creepy in general. It’s a bunch of women (or children, in Trump’s case) who won the genetic lottery being forced to jump through hoops in order to earn a scholarship.

            It feels more like rich people watching QVC to shop for a bride/mistress. Gross

    Child rapist. I’m surprised he hasn’t already issued the national guard to round up the homeless folk.

    Man who has done absolutely zero to lower the cost of living, or provide public housing, and has actively destroyed government charity work, has in fact created an entire new class of unemployed people, but now demands they be nowhere near where he might see them… Hitlerpig is too pleasant a name for this obese, orange, completely inadequate Oompa Loompa!

      Trump has mastered the lack of object permanence.

      if he doesn’t see homeless, they don’t exist.

      if he doesn’t see employment numbers, they don’t exist.

        It is impossible for him to admit his economical genius moves has fucked the populace. He is literally screwed over the global and national economy.

        I, for one, am buying nothing but essentials going forward. I do need work on my home but we will DIY the cheapest way possible and shop in the secondary local market. I will purchase secondhand first always. My millennial kid and his wife are doing the same. It is time for neighbors and communities to work together-- mutual aid.

        My spouse and I are handy so can manage to most home improvements ourselves but the supplies/materials have drastically increased in price; still probably cheaper than hiring a contractor.

        My friend needs to add another electrical service to her house and is kind of freaking out at the first quote. I told her to get some more quotes… then wait. If you are patient, you will see… the prices will actually go down as the collective absorbs the ridiculous tariffs/inflation for basic living.

        The truth is, we are getting screwed. Consider that during the Great Depression and WW2, people learned to garden to feed themselves. Start your beds now if you have land/yard. If you don’t, consider the community gardens in your area. If there are not any now… start one. So long as we still have public lands, we have that opportunity. Additionally, there is such a thing as guerilla gardening where you dig in little seedpods in parks/and land that is neglected (medians, side roads, etc.). https://www.gardenstead.com/guerilla-gardening-the-search-for-nature-in-urban-cities/

        Do not be afraid. Be motivated. (I was going to say be angry… but that is really a big waste of energy…) but being motivated and energized and proactive, calm, centered is way better. That is energy that can be maintained.

        Anger energy is just a big spark and dies out. I know, y’all are pissed… hell, I am pissed too but it helps to restrain the amount of triggers you allow yourself to be exposed to because otherwise it is a big energy suck and depression invitation.

        Just cling to your first principles and pursue them. The triggering bullshit will be deployed on a daily basis designed to drive you out of your mind… ignore it. Just keep to your first principles. Work to provide a resilient local economy, dig the ditches so to speak… You are not responsible for your whole city… just this part of your block, this one apartment building, these particular floors… this one floor and recruit more… maybe they have capacity for a floor… or half a floor and recruit another to handle the other half. Many hands make light work.

        Have weekly meetings, have parties and celebrations. Gather, create some solidarity and create a union.

        eta: Also do what you can to reduce any debt you have and avoid more. I think there will be changes to screw over credit card debt holders. Anyone who has a variable rate etc.

        There are large financial bubbles over the AI and cybercurrency futures. Our dollar has been downgraded. The US has a human rights alert and tourism is going down. The WH has signaled their willingness to expose our SS funds to the stock market, cyber and other risky investments.

        Our Congress has abandoned us. So be very frugal, careful and start teaching yourselves about finance/investments/savings/etc. There are books at the library and online resources. Remember 2007/2008

        He just fires the experts that provided data proving our economy is fucked!!! And lines the govt with his cronies.

        And this is coming from a family of war dodgers, illegals (came here to avoid the draft of war in Germany), multiple bankruptcies in many businesses and including self bankruptcies, etc. (Look up the FULL page ad he put out on the “Prospect Five” who were innocent! And never posted a redaction… WE DO NOT FORGET!

        He’s such a POS that on Fred’s death bed he tried to get him to change his will because it didn’t benefit him the way he wanted and wanted everything! He’s a fucking sociopath and coward for letting our country turn into what it is… “Project 2025” and it is almost halfway completed now… for all the ICE abductions, they need to collect the Drumpf family, especially Melina! Send her sellout ass to El Salvador or better yet, Russia. Let her fight that war with Ukraine!

        Either way, the Drumpfs came here illegally and changed their name… they have always been sketchy and deserve to pay in the same ways they are treating ACTUAL CITIZENS!
