Are you liking "The Trump Effect"?

[exitseven]

Just a year ago we were living in Bizzaroland. There were 52 genders, people who would step up to help their fellow citizens were charged with murder, you could come home from vacation and you could find illegal aliens living in your home and if you kicked them out you would be arrested for assault, and the list goes on.

It has been a few months since we heard about any squatters and suddenly it is not illegal to say Merry Christmas. Every day life seems to be a little easier in America. There is a lessening of the feeling of being a prisoner in your own home. Maybe it did not take an act of Congress , maybe all we needed was a new President.

Making America Great Again

[sage2021]

I don't think that we have the "All clear - you can rest easy again" yet.

Personally, I really don't see a difference in my life. Nothing has changed for the better.

Merchandise I purchase costs more than ever before. Not just groceries but shoes, clothes, house plants, everything I buy online suddenly have $14.00 shipping costs added to the price when the item only costs $2.99 (like my fingernail polish from ebay). The shipping used to be free. Hummm...

[exitseven]

@sage2021 So prices did not go up when Biden was president?

[sage2021]

No not like this! It's because of the tariffs.

When I buy things on EBAY or other big online stores, they are making the customers pay the tariff by adding the shipping fee to the customer.
Do you really think 🤔 that sellers want to pay the expensive shipping costs when they can just have the customer's pay the shipping?
Was that how it was designed?

[exitseven]

I have not seen prices go up like they did 4 years ago. Every week my eyes would bug out of my head ar the supermarket. The lady that works the register tells me I am not the only one.
I have seen meat and eggs go down and other items like bread has at least stayed the same. Bread was alway 1.99 a loaf and now it is 4 or 5 bucks.
Things may never go back to what they were before Biden was elected but wages are rising in comprison with the rate of inflation so we are going in the right direction.

[exitseven]

EBay and Walmart raised their prices and blamed it on Trump even though tariffs have not gone into effect. Most companies get the foreign country to eat the tariff. Why would anyone buy a piece of junk made in China if it is not cheaper than an Made in USA product.
I am looking forward to seeing Made in USA in the stores again.

[sage2021]

Thank you for the MHO 7🙂

[Paige90]

Loving it!

[Bricealan]

@exitseven Agree.

When I worked at Boeing Corporation, we did not celebrate Christmas. We celebrated a fucking "Winter Holiday"- Can you imagine that kind of fucking stupidity? I NEVER went to a Winter Holiday party at Boeing.

[exitseven]

I work for the state, It is even worse.

[Bratsondanielle]

I LOVE my country again and I LOVE that we have an actual president and an actual government again (although the libs are still reeking havoc as much they can)

Like you say "the list goes on" ... border wide open, tax $ flowing to illegal criminal invader aliens etc etc... and now we're back to normal (in most states)

My family, my husband, and myself, have made tens of thousands of dollars on first the stock market and then crypto and now there are tons of IPOs flying up all over the place

This week alone my portfolio is up more than. 1,000

The big beautiful bill is making "the American dream " a reality again and just a few months ago it. Seemed to be extinct at best

[sage2021]

The rich get richer. Isn't that what Trump is all about?

[onedarkcloud]

@sage2021 That is what senile Biden, and the AMERICA LAST DEMOCRATIC COMMUNIST PARTY OF AMERICA are about screwing the people first last and always!

[Bratsondanielle]

@sage2021 😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝

[sage2021]

@Bratsondanielle
I'm not at all sure what your emoji is telling me. I'm on the fence about Trump now. But it's not only me. His percentage rates among the people are good way down.
By the way, are you rich?

[onedarkcloud]

@sage2021 Rich in family! His numbers are down because what he promised is taking longer than expected, but despite that, he has done more in six months than in the four years of the Biden travesty.

[Miristheiss]

The most crucial issue, the issue that had the most to do with whether our Republic would continue to survive is immigration.

It is impossible for millions of foreigners, complete strangers we know nothing about to just flood in by the millions year after year. That will destroy a culture, a society. A country has to have its own borders and its own unique common thread culture. Without that, if the world can just move in then you don't have a country.

He has secured the border and is deporting in mass. That is the best we can do and it is being done. Amen.

So, while there are lots of issues and his performance may differ from topic to topic (many topics we'll need to wait a couple of years to see how it works out) the most crucial topic for the longevity of the nation he is doing great.

[dustybiker2]

You have a single story of squatters you obsess over. Its fascinating.

Biden was/is dementing. trump is purely deranged. trumps lost the worlds respect. He's destroying the country who voted him into office. He holds a picture of putin, a dictator nobody respects, as if the Nobel prize he so desperately seeks.. and brags the dictator will sign it for him...

He has yet to accomplish anything he ran on and the economy is worse. War is threatening and trump responds "Here we go!"

That isn't even the half of it.

To answer your question. No.

I will look forward to his removal.

[exitseven]

The economy is getting better every day. Inflation numbers have improved, wages are rising in relationship to inflation, the treasury has collected over 200 billion in tariffs, the largest tax cut inn history has been passed by congress and last week all 3 major stock indexes have hit record highs.
Foreign leaders thought Joe Biden was a joke. Nobody respected him and he was a pushover. Putin never would have invaded Ukraine if Trump was president.
Countries have been put on notice that the US will not be the sucker for the rest of the world.
He is cleaning up the streets of the nation's capitol and will clean up other cities. This is what Americans voted for. They were sick of seeing their jobs being shipped overseas, sick of paying for wars we have no stake in, sick of excessive government regulations and sick of career criminals given no cash bail time and time again.

[Chazmatazz269]

Frankly, i’m more than a little on edge in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination. The left has made it abundantly clear that they won’t stop k*lling dissenters, and i’m currently living in California. Contrary to popular belief, there are actually millions of moderates and conservatives here. There really are a lot of lunatic leftists too though. It wasn’t this bad before Kirk’s death. Hopefully, in time i can find some peace of mind without putting Charlie and his memory out of my mind entirely.

[msc545]

You must be kidding. He makes everything worse. Worst President ever.

[exitseven]

How so? Unless you work for the federal government or are an illegal alien the vast majority of Americans have seen their lives improve.

[msc545]

Funny how the vast majority of Americans as you put it don't seem to be supporting him and actually are rather ashamed of him at this point as am I and as you should be.

[Wiredone]

Just because we don't hear about squatters doesn't mean they aren't still around. The news is too busy covering all the shootings going on

[exitseven]

Yes, maybe that is true. However, I just poked around and could find quite a bit about it in 2023 and 2024 but that is whare it ends. A few states passed anti squatting legislation with Florida being the the forefront. Not a peep about it after 2024.

[Wiredone]

Thats when all the shootings started. Coincidentally right after Trump took office again

[dustybiker2]

Poor Colorado, hardly any coverage

[exitseven]

@Wiredone When their backs were against the wall.

[loveslongnails]

Your entire post is nothing but bullshit. LMAO. How many people came home from vacations to find their homes occupied? Bullshit. Gender? Did any of it effect you? No. The Trump effect has sent the nation into an economic spiral. Farmers going bankrupt, job starts down, the dollar has plunged to 17% of it's value against the Euro from a year ago. Mercenaries are arresting people without due process, American CITIZENS are getting arrested for no reason.

You are Notsee loving troll, seven. You must be getting paid to push this narrative. The entire world is worse because of P-2025. Trump is today's puppet. Next year it will be Vance, but you... forever.

[Danzigdawson]

You truly were living in your very own, special bizarroland.

Fascism, political violence, economical ruin is better than having to acknowledge "52 genders"? Damn. You've got issues of a certain kind that I won't mention because my account's been frozen twice during the last two weeks over it.

[andreasderjuengere]

Going from one extreme to the opposite extreme isn't progress in my eyes.

I will agree that since a couple of decades it had been heavily necessary to clean up that mess that once was one nation.

But to clean the house with a snow plough is not too smart on the long run.

[exitseven]

It does seem extreme because the country had been so screwed up during the 4 long years of the Biden administration it will take drastic measurs to fix it.

[andreasderjuengere]

... and longer to fix the negative impact that your Trump has on this world's opinion about the U. S..
By the way... I talk 'decades' - not just 4 years of some ''Biden''.
This sequence of our (new) century is extremely difficult.
To not be a part of the solution means to be a part of the problem. Not?

[RavVid]

What? If you helped an injured person and say they bled to death despite you trying to stem the bleeding you could be charged with murder? As a good Samaritan?

Mind you I can scarcely criticize because Christmas is illegal next suburb over and it can't be mentioned in schools because it is not inclusive. Super markets celebrate Diwalli and some other ethnic holidays but won't celebrate Australia Day.

by the way I think it quickly increased from 52 genders to 101 genders.

[I_Can_Help]

The Trump Effect: High inflation, dead tourism, joblessness, political assassinations, wars raging around the globe and everybody in the US hating one another because Troll Trump is The Great Divider. Meanwhile, the rest of the civilized world hates the US because of stupid tariffs and Trump siding with Putin and Kim Jong Un over our friends, Europe and Canada.

[exitseven]

Whjen Biden was president we had almost ten percent inflation. It was set at 9.9 but economists say it was more but Bidens people adjusted what the CPI counted and did not count gas which was over 5 bucks a gallon. Now inflation has been around 2.5 % . If tourism is dead why have airlines reported record number of passengers and lodging has also shown a healthy increase? Maybe some foreigners are staying away but it means that Americans have been seeing their incomes rise in relationship to inflation and can afford a vacation.
The jobs numbers have cooled but the first quarter the jobs number was greater than what was estimated. Interest rates are going down and the tax cuts will take effect next year and this will stimulate growth in the entire economy. Everything Trump is doing is working even though it has been uneven.

[genericname85]

i think the gender thing didn't go away cause trump had a positive effect. i think the gender thing went away cause trump made sure people have actual problems now. cause the trump tarrifs has tipped more people over the edge of poverty, more people living paycheck to paycheck and overall purchasing power plummeting massively. this was expected... but i sure hope his long term vision works out.

[Dargil]

Thoroughly. This is WAR.

[seeyounexttuesday]

I never thought it would spread to Europe to wake them up

[goaded]

"suddenly it is not illegal to say Merry Christmas". Good God.

[exitseven]

You could not say God either.

[goaded]

Yes, you could.

[Anonymous]

I wish I could believe you but Charlie Kirk's assassination tells me otherwise

[exitseven]

Yes, it was a tragedy. It was the democrats fault and if a civil war has to happen it will be on them.

[Twalli]

There are so many inaccuracies here that I don't know where to start

[douride2]

Not really.

[exitseven]

you are in Canada.

[douride2]

I am. But what happens down south effects us up here.

[exitseven]

@douride2 I can understand. Trump wants to keep the fentanyl on your side of the fence.

[douride2]

There is more of that $hit coming north then going south.

[douride2]

Oh just incase you didn't notice there is no fence along the border between us & you.

[exitseven]

yes, I have hiked those woods before.

[douride2]

There are over 5500 miles of woods & water on that border.

[Anonymous]

Move to Russia. You'd love it there.

[exitseven]

no way. We had a taste of what living in russia would be like during the last 4 years.

[Alex-Snow]

I completely disagree with you

what is not true?

Lets just agree to disagree
