Presidential Election Results: Trump Wins​

Hegseth is an idiot, which is why Trump supports him. The last thing Trump wants is a secretary of defense with a brain. Stupidity is easily managed.

Many wonder how Republican Senators feel about confirming Hegseth as SecDef. We will never know. Republican Senators avoid any mention of the Trump administration unless forced by circumstances to face the inept White House.

This is incomprehensible. It is the second time for Hegseth in a few short Weeks.

CNN reports, "Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared detailed plans about a military operation against the Houthis in Yemen on a second Signal group chat, this one on his personal phone and including his wife, lawyer and brother, three people familiar with the chat told CNN.

"The revelation comes as some of Hegseth’s closest advisers have begun sounding the alarm about the secretary’s judgment, including his former press secretary, John Ullyot, and three former senior officials Hegseth fired last week — his top adviser Dan Caldwell, deputy chief of staff Darin Selnick, and Colin Carroll, who served as chief of staff to the deputy secretary of defense.

"Similar to the first Signal chat, which was revealed publicly by The Atlantic after its editor was mistakenly included by national security adviser Mike Waltz, the military plans Hegseth shared in the second chat were about strikes against the Houthis, the people said.

"Hegseth’s brother Phil, as well as his lawyer Tim Parlatore, both have jobs at the Department of Defense. But his wife, Jennifer, does not, despite Hegseth regularly including her during the beginning of his tenure in meetings with foreign leaders."

Trump's reaction to all this was predictable. To cover up a security breach by his inept SecDef, Trump made a weak attempt at humor followed by lies.

“There’s no dysfunction at all. Ask the Houthis how much dysfunction they have,” Trump said, adding, “Pete’s doing a great job. Everybody’s happy with him, It’s just fake news. They just make up stories. I guess it’s — sounds like disgruntled employees. He was put there to get rid of a lot of bad people, and that’s what he’s doing."

No wonder Republicans say nothing.
 
Trump is ecstatic. The Democrats and the media are doing exactly what Trump wants them to do. They are talking a lot about immigration, freeing a man falsely imprisoned, and court decisions.

Both are minimizing the disastrous economic effects of Trump's tariffs and the loss of our friends and allies because Trump targeted them.

The Democrats and the media are providing only lip service to our declining economy, increasing inflation, higher unemployment, and a horrendous loss of retirement savings since Trump became President.

The Guardian reports, "A delegation of four House Democrats has arrived in El Salvador to push for the release of Kilmar Ábrego García, part of a mission to challenge the Trump administration’s refusal to comply with a supreme court order to facilitate the return of the immigrant to the United States."

This is great news, according to Trump because the Democrats and the media are not talking about this.

US stocks ended the day sharply lower Monday and the dollar tumbled as investors assessed continued tariff uncertainty and the implications of President Donald Trump’s ongoing mission to try and oust Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.

The Dow fell 972 points, or 2.48%. The broader S&P 500 fell 2.36%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite slid 2.55%. The three major indexes slumped throughout the day before pulling back slightly in the afternoon

The sell-off on Monday was widespread, as nearly every company in the Dow and the S&P 500 closed lower. All three major indexes are coming off of a week in the red and are on pace for their worst month since 2022.

The US dollar index, which measures the dollar’s strength against six foreign currencies, slumped more than 1% to its lowest level in more than three years.

Despite the obvious fact that it is Trump's tariffs and loss of friends -- Canada and the U.K. come to mind --causing the problems, Trump, as usual, blames someone else. He lambasted Powell for not cutting interest rates.

“If I want him out, he’ll be out of there real fast, believe me,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office Thursday. “I’m not happy with him.”

The media should be aware of its responsibilities. They need to do better at covering the problems Americans are facing that were caused by this President.

They could begin with this. Senior Americans have lost billions in retirement savings since Trump became president.

These Ponzi scheme antics most likely won't exist in 2030.

Over the past four months, President Trump’s entry into the world of cryptocurrency has been extremely fruitful and extremely unregulated, thanks to the fact that his administration has stripped pretty much all regulations from this world. But one of the president’s many crypto ventures — and probably the dumbest one yet — was facing a potential disaster scenario in the l

The Trump meme coin is a token with no discernible value other than betting on the fate of the presidency. The president and his team of advisers have already gotten richer off the $TRUMP coin, making a reported $100 million in fees alone even as the people who bought into the project lost over $2 billion in value since the coin’s high earlier this year. The fun looked like it could end on Friday thanks to the coin’s own makers.

On April 18, three months after the $TRUMP coin’s initial launch stupefied even some of crypto’s most ardent backers for its blind greed, the coin faced a major hurdle. Some 40 million tokens were entering circulation, a number that represented about 20 percent of the circulating supply. If the new supply, worth about $300 million at the current price, were sold off, it would crater the price of the coin. With another $4 million hitting the market every day after that until another major supply unlock later this summer, it looked like a potential doomsday scenario for the venture, with the value already fallen over 90 percent from its high back in January. The mainstream and crypto media promised calamity:

,

And yet, the once-hot meme coin’s price was not rocked to the core. In fact, over the weekend, the coin saw a modest gain in value. The sellers remained in control for one obvious reason. Two Trump-owned businesses — CIC Digital LLC and Fight Fight Fight LLC — represented 80 percent of the incoming supply glut. If they were to sell off, they’d only be killing their own chance at achieving an absurd amount of money for doing almost nothing.




While this could just be a short-term confidence pump before dumping off their share, it looks like the $TRUMP coin will continue on at its diminished $8-ish price for the time being. (It’s certainly not nothing: With a market cap of $1.67 billion, it is the fourth-largest meme coin behind “Pepe” and ahead of “Bonk.”) Meanwhile, the Trump crypto team reportedly appears to be onto something new: a real-estate video game that somehow combines Trump’s new love of cryptocurrency with his old fondness for the Monopoly board game.

Perhaps the Right should reconcile Jan 6, instead of diverting.

The problem for the Right is to reconcile Jan 6 is to lay blame where it belongs, on DJT.
 
The Best POTUS joke ever on the USA Taxpayers!

The Donald said!
Uh, I don't want tariffs to go higher on China, they need to go lower. I mean, people at some spot will stop buying stuff.
I mean you got to have people buying stuff so the tariffs need to go lower. I mean people need to keep buying stuff!
So I mean you know, umm lowering tariffs will be a really great deal!

O'Boy !


Then the Donald Tariff's games with the world, Tuesday the Dow is up some on a hope for a deal with China but Monday was most likely the worst day since the Depression day of waste. This kind of game has got to be illegally orchestrated and done.
 
I remember reading a book about the only guy left in the world.

Ah, No, its bullying at its best, ruining free thinking and advancement,
controlled bullying in person scowls etc. Everyone's impacted crawling
along the water cooler halls, slinking under their desks and offer nothing
to the assholes. Imagine 1500 sitting in cubicles in a buildings 1st floor.
1/4 sq. mile of building & miserable employees taking phone calls all
day long.

The proof is the Economy exploded as the Pandemic eased.
Many returned to parking lots. Most didn't have to. They
have done good work. Its problem people like The Donald
thas the problem POWER OF BULLIES at its most obvious
worst display of tom foolery.

The world's getting like putting up with professional golf / Sports !

Wait, Billionaires run those too! I/m done with them.
Let the MT seats speak up this summer and fall.
So much bad luck ahead for the greed of those tight asses.
No more lines of 1000's funneling their way to the Gates. You asked for it asshole!
Your games you offered are just plain stupid waste of time for the modern family!

Sure you can build multi story condos on those 1000 acres of 'H.S.' land. Who cares, the Russian's own you!

Don't be fooled by today's surge in the stock market. Stocks are on sale, and some investors decided to buy. Trump's global tariff war has caused the economic chaos, and it has not gone away.

CNN reports, "Stocks are on the rebound Tuesday, bouncing back from another miserable day on Wall Street. But American financial markets are sounding all sorts of alarm bells that one day in the green can hardly overcome.

"That’s because investors have been sending a clear message: President Donald Trump’s trade war is making America an unsafe place to invest."

Vladimir Putin is enormously pleased with Trump's job performance.

In keeping with Trump's goal of weakening the American government and causing serious harm to the American economy, Trump's changes to the state department are debilitating.

"Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Tuesday rolled out the first stage of a major plan to reorganize the US State Department with changes that will eliminate 132 domestic offices, cut around 700 positions in Washington, DC, and close offices focused on war crimes and global conflict," CNN.

Vladimir Putin is enormously pleased with Trump's job performance.
Because he chose the easily managed moron, Trump wants to keep the SecDef who created a security breach.

"CNN senior political analyst Scott Jennings says that his White House sources told him they will stick with Hegseth. “There’s no way they’re going to throw Hegseth overboard,”

Vladimir Putin is enormously pleased with Trump's job performance.

Republicans will continue their silence.

This is incredible! It says a lot about Trump that he is making excuses and lying for this official.

NBC reports, "Minutes before U.S. fighter jets took off to begin strikes against Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen last month, Army Gen. Michael Erik Kurilla, who leads U.S. Central Command, used a secure U.S. government system to send detailed information about the operation to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

"The material Kurilla sent included details about when U.S. fighters would take off and when they would hit their targets — details that could, if they fell into the wrong hands, put the pilots of those fighters in grave danger. But he was doing exactly what he was supposed to: providing Hegseth, his superior, with information he needed to know and using a system specifically designed to safely transmit sensitive and classified information."

Nearly four more years. Our country is in a heap of trouble. Republicans can't even speak up for their President.
 
What's been happening these past 8 years +? Just what can I get away with, is a broken mind.
He knows all this stuff. Just how far can a broken mind go to prove it. Check out some dictators,
Emperors, Egyptians, Hitler, Mussolini, Benedict Arnold, Napoleon, Nixon, maybe Johnson, the Donald's ducks.

Stiff Tariff wars, everyone knows there will not be a winner. It will fail. Sanctions usually end.
Wrecking the Pentagon, that will fail.
Funding the DOGE, it probably will fail.

Eventually Elon will go back to what he actually knows something about, hiring people to do the work.
Loosing tons of sleep knowing he has to keep hiring more people to do all the work.

The Judges will get tired of being overworked! Issue a blank statement, No.
2 years pass fast. The pooch has been _______'d!

Congress will work 24 hours shifts for months to fix all the damage, and probably mess it up too.

Most likely this is all about paying workers less to make more stuff cheaper, so Billionaires make more moola.
Eliminate government interferences and just ship & sell the crap. We will take over the Shipping Canals.
Tax the crap out of the consumers. 10% state sales taxes.
 
More of the Donalds ---- ---T !

All of the above is why US Citizens cannot allow Super Pac Funds and Billionaires to run our country and lives.
Billionaires own all the Elected and appointed deep into anal place people. Why should a Billionair pay for 10 seconds of work.
be it taxes or Social Security. 100 years on both at 22%. If they don't like honesty then quit bullying for stupid crap.
But no lower than 18% forever. Political super groups, nixed, donations above $30,000 done. Go To ----! Go live on your islands.
Wait, CU"BA, Russia, South America, China, Middle east will invade you and take all from.

Trump would do a lot better if he kept his mouth shut and didn't do anything.

Proof of that is the country does a lot better when he reverses himself and changes his mind on tariffs. Americans are tired of his lies.

CNN reports, "President Donald Trump’s unprecedented tariffs, particularly on China, and recent attacks on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell caused alarm among some of his top advisers and America’s biggest CEOs, who warned of financial chaos and store shelves that could go bare, people familiar with the conversations said.

"The warnings — and the markets’ own volatility this week — seemed to have broken through. Trump backed down Tuesday from his threats to try to remove Powell from the job, telling reporters in the Oval Office: “I have no intention of firing him.”

"That prompted sighs of relief on Wall Street. A day after markets boomed on comments from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent that Trump would seek to de-escalate the trade war with China, US markets gained again on Wednesday."

Now if Trump would quit lying to the American people about talks and deals that do not exist.

"Trump on Wednesday told reporters that his administration will get a “fair deal” with China on trade, adding more broadly that negotiations with countries “are going very well.”
