Didn't he just say we were doing fine?

[–] groupofcrows@lemmy.ca 86 points 2 months ago

We = Trump family.

You can just say anything apparently. Nothing matters.

[–] Signtist@bookwyr.me 24 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You always could, we just used to kill people in power who did it too much. Then the people in power started teaching us that violence is never the answer, and the rest is history.

Trump could have been voted out. Lack of violence was not the problem.

The party is responsible for keeping him in power. Fascist enablers are fascist too

First of all the voters are responsible. They are easily manipulated so the parties, the elite, the media and others are responsible, too. But we have to stop using democracy if the voters are so unreliable that they don't count.

America is so fucked with this guy at the helm.

[–] Frenchgeek@lemmy.ml 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He made his money by tanking a business and taking everything not bolted down before leaving, not surprising, really.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 15 points 2 months ago

and using those businesses to LAUNDER money for the russians.

[–] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 2 months ago

He's trying to fuck the whole world, and is getting pretty far.

America is so fucked period. Trump is a symptom, not a cause. I plan on cracking open a bottle when the headline we're all waiting for appears, but I have no illusions that it's going to suddenly fix that broken ass country.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago

I wish more people realized that

[–] Fluffy_Ruffs@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

I can easily see him saying this followed by, "and it's all Biden's fault"

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 8 points 2 months ago

One of the few times I fully agree with Trump. It's time to close up shop.

We have been in a decline since 1990.

1981*. Reagan started the process of transferring wealth from the working class to the ultra wealthy through 'trickle down' economics. The idea spread beyond the US and now we are all destined for indentured servitude.
