Rally-style series of boasts does not include much in the way of plans to address affordability crisis
Donald Trump on Wednesday used a nationally-televised address to deliver a campaign-style rant in which he blamed his predecessor for the economic woes Americans are feeling a year into his presidency while offering little in the way of proposals to address the higher prices caused in large part by the massive tariffs he has placed on almost all American imports.
Speaking from the Diplomatic Reception Room at the White House, Trump opened by claiming to have “inherited a mess” that he was now “fixing.”
What followed was a partisan rant indistinguishable from the signature rallies that have been the centerpiece of his political movement, in which he rattled off a list of grievances while blaming his predecessor for the state of the country nearly a full year after he took the oath of office.
Tl;dr of everything:
Hands… So small…
He likes them undeveloped
“Who shit my pants!?!”

Yeah, no. Biden came in and (somewhat) fixed your first shitshow, then your pettiness drove you to tear it down even faster this time. I hope the approval rating continues to fall, even among the MAGA faithful. I hope no one gives a fuck about him by the time he’s out of office.
I hope he’s dragged kicking and screaming from that office by people wearing his name on their forehead.
He’s been president just under a year and still blames Biden. That is crazy work and the fact people eat it up is a serious problem. Single issue voters are single handedly destroying our country. You can’t even blame MAGA because they represent only about 25% of voters which is still sad but typical.
It’s the other 28% of voters, the anti Israel, anti abortion, anti immigration that don’t care about ANYTHING except that one issue. It also doesn’t help that democrats platform does not represent anyone because their policy is all over place. The reason educated people tend to vote democrat is because they understand policy as a whole and don’t really have a choice but to vote blue thanks to the two party system.
Oh, FFS, Donvict is such a limpdick.
This economy had all the right indicators last year and this stooge inherited one of the best situations a President has ever been handed. Then, he and all his morons completely fucked it all up.
And still: about 30-some percent of this country cannot see what is plain as the nose on your face…and still support this complete dumbass.
Yet Americans will continue to believe the baseless stereotype that Republicans are better for the economy
Joe Biden just shat in my pants.
Americans: fuck that biden guy.
Gross if true
An ignorant, egotistical, emotionally stunted dotard rambles incoherently for 20 minutes. He controls the nuclear codes.
The media sticks their finger in their collective ear and goes “La La La.”
That’s a 10/10 headline, no notes
His last chance to address his national underlings with more lies until tomorrow when the Epstein files are either released or hidden by the DOJ. I fear for what kind of distraction he will use once the compost finally hits the Cuisinart.
Yes, It finally happened: I’m done with this.
From now on I’m going to be amused by our country and its tolerance (…or even respect!) for lying fascists. buys popcorn and waits for recolonisation
Looking over in horror from Britain - because we’ve still got our own version of this shit likely to come in a few years time. :-!
It seems to me Turmp’s real plan is to crash the economy so that the billionaires will be able to own everything. They will be able to buy it all dirt cheap in the coming recession. Billionaires get far richer in a crisis, it suits them fine since they already have the deepest pockets and are disaster capitalists who profit from instability and chaos.
Tmurp doesn’t care. He expects to live forever but even if he dies trying, it’ll still be his parting gift to his fellow rich bastards. His work is already done, the USA won’t recover from this for generations. He will be remembered forever as the greatest villain who ever lived in the history of the USA. He’s fine with that - he hates Everyone!
The AI bubble will pop so hard, not to even mention everything else going on. The money is all getting siphoned up in crypto and spirited away.
These fuckers are going to make an absolute killing, in more ways than one. They profit on chaos, despair and division.
I think it’s hard for people to imagine that an insane narcissistic demented president would deliberately wreck the global economy while telling the citizens it’s a golden age.
It’s all a distraction from the plundering of everything!
He’s got nothing to lose, a lot to gain, and he’s running out of time. The 1% are gonna own everything and fuck off to Argentina when the time comes.
No shit Sherlock!
Edit: At least, that seems to be the game plan from where I’m sitting.
I put this in a post elsewhere about his Golden Age comment.
It actually is a Golden Age. For billionaires and corporations.
And grifting pieces of shit like Donvict, who is able to rig the game. I’d love to see his family and his corporatist cronies imprisoned. Him, too, but I doubt he’ll live long enough to see any consequences if they ever come at all…
About 15 years ago I used to work in Murcia with in a very rural area. I remember this old man talking about how Obama is a terrible leader and real leadership is not talking about the previous guy in charge. I wonder if he is rolling in his grave or of he will support this bs.
I can’t remember Obama even doing that. He took responsibility for the absolute mess Bush left him.
Who knows. I didnt follow politics at the time but this was also same crowd that got upset over Obama “baggy pants” and tan suit. Guy seemed senile.
The crazy thing is he’s doing this because Biden can’t defend himself and thus he gets away with it. It has the added bonus of proving Trump “right” because what other reason could Biden have for remaining silent?
They had to have something to fallback to after they talked him out of going to war with south america. Don’t kid yourself the rest of latin american countries will not sit still for it.
I’m very much reminded of the “show and tell” meme.
