The case against Abrego Garcia is looking pretty shaky. The DOJ would rather avoid a trial.

Trump blames Biden after GDP shrinks in first quarter, says growth will 'take a while'
President Donald Trump blamed former President Joe Biden and defended his sweeping tariff plans after new data showed the U.S. economy contracting last quarter.

Trump cautioned that his promised economic "boom" will "take a while," telling people to "BE PATIENT!!!"

Other data showed private payrolls rose by just 62,000 in April, far below expectations.

Trump's claim that the negative GDP and subsequent market declines were a result of Biden's policies is inaccurate.

    I love your headline.

    But, Curt! Congress hasn't even passed Trump's Big Beautiful Bill. He's treading water until then.

    I don't see how you can praise Trump or blame him yet,...

    ... well, if you think, anyway, eh?

    So you think that congressional cuts to Medicaid, SNAP and government pensions will improve Trump's historical standing?
    politico.com

    Tell me, Curt, what cuts?

    When it comes to the GOP's lofty rhetoric, my Swamphate won't allow me to think that much will really happen.

    You?

    Be honest, if possible.

    I gave you a link. If Politico is wrong, what is in the "big beautiful bill" that you think will save Trump's reputation?

    If Trump is lucky, Congress won't pass the bill. Red state residents are also on Medicare, get SNAP, have government pensions, etc.

    I skimmed the article.

    Are you aware that The Big Beautiful Bill has yet to be passed by Congress and signed by the President?


  6. by Curt_Anderson on April 30, 2025 9:24 am
    Yeah, I know. I actually read the article. Steve Scalise said elsewhere that they hope to pass it by Memorial Day.

    "Hope to." Baha!

    Allow ole pb to encourage you to factor into actual the reality that the GOP ain't you lockstepping Dems.

    Were y'nes in charge, the bill with all your president’s hopes and dreams might be possible. But, remember pb's litany: The GOP is the home of [and, wait for that last quality on the list] openness and inclusion, acceptance, tolerance, diversity and... friggin FREETHINKING!

    Trump's been promising since the escalator in 015 that he ain't touchin Social Security.

    So,... enjoy the moment. GOPs are not going to commit suicide, even if you want them to.
