When #DonTheCon ran the first time in 2015, many (myself included) were pointing out that the "Business Jenius" had to file for bankruptcy 4x." And the U.S. Gov't can't bail out the U.S. Gov't if he tanks it... which is exactly what he ended up doing.

#Biden did an amazing job of saving our economy as much as he had despite T**** cutting Interest Rates to zero.

And Jerome Powell made it possible.

#BankruptTrump is the arsonist criticizing the firemen.
#DisasterPresidency

Don't worry, folks...

As Two Dolls Donny didn't actually lay his hand on the Bible when swearing the Presidential Oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution on 20th January (he had his left hand behind his back, with his fingers crossed) that oath doesn't count and he's free to become the Dictator he promised he'd be.

People don't seem to realize just how Nucking lazy #DonTheCon is. He doesn't ACTUALLY want to DO the work. He just wants to be The Boss who farms out every "boring" job so he can play golf every day, reap the praise when things go right (still waiting), with a convenient scapegoat when things go wrong.

In his first term, Jared was supposed to do it all. Second term, he had #Musk for that.

Now that #TheElongatedMuskrat is leaving, he's going to pile it all on #Rubio.

THANK YOU #JimmyKimmel.

Last night, Jimmy talked about Stephen Miller going on Fox to BOAST about #DonTheCon #First100Days accomplishments.

Fox introduced him with #polls showing that except for The #Border, #DisasterDon is underwater on EVERY OTHER CAMPAIGN PROMISE. Miller's response? Fire the pollsters.

The WH website produced a list of their top accomplishments (all 7 of them.)

End the war in #Ukraine & lower #inflation? No. Ban paper straws and end production of the penny. #100Days

#SundayShowdown

#DonTheCon's Treasury Sec Scott #Bessent, said on #ThisWeek that the #StockMarket has recovered nearly all of its losses after the Market plunge in early April, and "The Media called it the worst Market plunge in 100 years. But just 3 weeks later, the Market has recovered almost all of those [self-inflicted] loses, and I never hear the Media calling this The Greatest Recovery in history."

The #DOW didn't recover BECAUSE of his polices, but b/c he WALKED THEM BACK! #Gaslight

People don't get it yet.

In 2024, #Vance blamed #Biden for the high price of eggs. T**** took over, the price of #eggs exploded and people stopped buying eggs, causing the price to plummet.

Now, #DonTheCon's telling everyone he "cut the price of eggs 92%" (ie: still 8% higher than where he started.)

He's doing the same with the #StockMarket. He's crashing the DOW, reversing course like The Titanic spotting an iceberg, and stocks will recover just short of where they started.

It is… "fascinating" (for lack of a better word) how much of #DonTheCon's policies AND popular support is drawn from #racism.

Think of all the #DayOne promises he made & failed to achieve: Bring prices down, end the war in #Ukraine, retrieve the hostages in #Gaza… etc & so on.

"Round up gang members & terrorists and #deport them" became: going after the low-hanging fruit of UNAdjudicated migrants already in jail & foreign-born protesters on college campuses.

AND THEY DON'T CARE.
