You may quote me on that.

I am talking about the Trump voters who seriously believed Trump's promises that he would lower the price of groceries, end the war in Ukraine, bring peace to Israel and Gaza, carry out mass deportation, bring back US manufacturing from overseas, improve the economy, end "lawfare", end "weaponization" of the DOJ, and "drain the swamp".

These same Trump voters probably believed him when he took the presidential oath and promised to "preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States". On "Meet the Press" yesterday Kristen Welker asked, "don't you need to uphold the Constitution of the United States as president?” “I don’t know,” Trump replied.

People who didn't vote for Trump already knew that his promises were BS.


1 in 4 Trump Voters Disappointed or Regret Voting For Him: 'I'm Scared'
Trump began his second term with higher approval ratings than ever. But in recent weeks, polls have begun to show his popularity rating firmly underwater after he released his new program of "Liberation Day" tariffs, which rocked markets and heightened concerns about inflation and a possible recession.

    Really? You want us to rehash this again because you were proved wrong? Gimmie a fucking break. If you have that much time on your hands you need to get a project to do.

    Oh. That's right. You can't because your life and your world are too close to the TPS sun. And your wings have melted.

    I’m here at dad’s- forced to watch Fox again. This jackass smug POS Jerry Watters shows the MTP cliip where the host asks tRump if he thinks people he’s deported deserve due process. Rump says “I don’t know”. They cut back to Watters who then claims Ds are “Lying! They’re claiming Rump said ‘I don’t know! He never said that!”

    🙄

    Dude… YOU JUST SHOWED THE CLIP WHERE HE SAID IT!

    So you're under daddies' skirts? Nice of you to finally admit that where you like spending your time.

    Oh. FYSA there is not "Jerry Waters" at FoxNews.

    Curt,

    Re: "...smart people take him neither seriously nor literally."

    Here's a useful rule of thumb: People who to tell others that they are smart, ain't.

    You can take that to the bank.

    I'm still chuckling after watching excerpts of the propagandists over at State Regime Media, a.k.a. Fox News duscussing the reopening of Alcatraz as if it were a serious proposition!

    "Here's a useful rule of thumb: People who to tell others that they are smart, ain't." ---HtS

    It must have pained you to vote three times for a guy who constantly denigrates the intelligence of others and who claims that he is smarter than practically everyone else.

    Here is my rule of thumb:
    People who tell others that they are unintelligent are probably correct.


  9. by HatetheSwamp on May 6, 2025 9:35 am

    It did pain me, the two times I did it. This time, I, proudly, voted for JD.

    Back to the thread.

    Trumpster is a politician. I'm not that OCD or hateful to memorize the crap they said and bring it up for the next 100 days with scathing reports about what they "promised" and all the "things" they haven't done. None of them have ever worked in the government, and still don't understand the constitution, unless they're told by their superior SS or GRU officers. My view is after a couple of years what has happened, and how does that affect me. Prices up or down? What are we spending money on, versus wasting money. Even pedojoe was worth my kudos every once in awhile. I don't think trumpster would have gotten into Ukraine. I consider that a miss. I agreed with pedojoe on that one. No boots on the ground (and I know there are, but it's small unit stuff). Afghanistan? epic failure. Nobody liked it except for pedojoe and kammy. My guess is that pedojoe was listening to the Taliban more than his own staff (both military and intel agencies).

    curt- I think it's humorous that you can't/ won't understand how they catch organized crime. It's a sexual fantasy of the TPSers that trumpster can be caught in an actual crime, while giving pedojoe a pass. These are the same people that actually think Capone and the head of the Gambino families were actually the ones shooting people. They're not. How they caught both of these organizations were taken down by looking at the bank accounts and money moving in, money moving out. It turns out US Treasury found out about the Tsarnaev family before the FBI. Once someone from the FBI could call Treasury back to get the info, mom and sister were on their way out of the country. Treasury was massively under-rated and under- used until then. NOW there are multi-agency task forces that all include financial crime information. It's too bad the libs are 20 years behind the curve.

    Famous Rico cases involving Treasury and Financial crimes
    Genovese crime family- Organized crime dismantling
    Gambino crime family- High-profile conviction
    Enron- Corporate fraud scandal
    Teamsters union- Institutional corruption challenge
    John Gotti- Infamous mob boss
    Pizza Connection trial- Heroin distribution network
    HealthSouth- Fraudulent accounting practices
    Operation Silver Shovel- Chicago bribery scheme

    I must have a lot of agreement on this if people are not saying anything.

    I love it when OD learns a new bit of history or politics and writes a War and Peace-sized post on something everyone on the board has known since junior high school.

    Obviously your "cases" didn't go any fucking where, did they?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Which is actually more proof of innocence! That's "If" "PRNewswire" exists (which I doubt if it's reputable).

    Should we put that in your holy grail?

    Obviously curt, po, wrongagain, isle, and YOU don't.
