So it’s better for Tramp to sign EO after EO after EO that he’s never even read, let alone played any part in writing?
Sounds like yet more DARVO projection to me. It’s like a reflex for him at this point.

I mean, rich Americans will maybe, but many Americans are already living paycheck to paycheck, with no safety net, and one disaster away from being out on the street. they can’t handle a rise in costs of basic goods that they’re already having trouble covering.

I guess I meant in the medium term.
It would wipe a lot of the extreme wealth out but I believe ordinary Americans would be better served by a compete reset of the techbro ecosystem and I believe that America still has the skill and ingenuity to have a genuine startup revolution to replace what’s here now. There won’t be as much money, but it wouldn’t be as concentrated if competition reopened in tech.
Won’t have that ability of course after too many years of AI sludge. But we are a ways from that still.
Probably.

I wonder if Trump saw “stage 4” written down and, unable to see it/having some cognitive issues, thought it was a nine, or this is just another one of Trump’s “making silly numbers up out of thin air, because he has no idea what they should be” routines. (Or it started as a four and he kept adding to it, because he reflexively does that to make things seem worse.)
Ironically that statement by Trump amounts to his failing a cognitive test…

I’m not sure of that… They have ways of protecting themselves and an administration in their pocket to make it happen right now.
Sure, I don’t disagree on that, but it would mean putting actual time, thought, and support into a public education system that serves everyone, not just kids in rich white neighborhoods.
But of course, what annoys the wealthy and is a problem for the middle classes can be devastating to the working classes overall. The only way out is by getting rid of the neoliberal economic system, and focusing on a people-centered economy. What best serves the most people should be the first thought, not what “drives innovation and lines the pockets of the wealthiest who might shower down loose change from their couches if they’re feeling generous on any given third sunday.”

i believe his misinterpretation of the “Gleason Scale” level nine, which points to very aggressive, metastatic prostate cancer, and conflating that completely different scale with “cancer stages”.
never forget the absolute idiocy of this man.

Shouldn’t this be in the negatives with the number they broke?

Yes, when Biden announced his cancer, the statement said the cancer had a Gleason Score 9, Group grade 5. And that’s why Junior posted about Biden having stage 5 cancer, and senior calling it stage 9. They’re just completely not understanding what was announced.

I’m pretty sure they never do, nor do they care.
They have a skill for detecting which noises some people like to hear, and repeating those. I haven’t seen much evidence for “understanding”.

Update: We’re at about 1000 posts in 15 days, which is about 67 posts per day. So that’s a slight slowdown as compared to thread 1 post-January 20 (at like 83 posts per day).

I forgot to include “conflates several things, neither of which he understands (or cares to understand).” Which is also typical Trump.
“I don’t understand and I don’t care enough to” is really Trumpism in a nutshell… characterizing both Trump himself and his followers.
Oh, didn’t you hear? According to Trump, now he’s not doing deals, he’s doing “deals” (yes, with quotes), where no one has to, uh, sign anything. (How this is different from ‘not actually a deal’ is left to our imaginations, but I assume it means someone bribes Trump and then he reduces a tariff.)
