He can't do that. Righties hate welfare. If someone proposed help for the working poor they'd be up in arms.

 

[lawgator1]

Trump says there is a deal with Mexico.

Employment numbers worrisome. Republicans revolting.

Well isnt that convenient.

 

[ajvol01]

By "a lot of people" he means 'game show hosts' with zero experience in geopolitical economics.

 

[Velo Vol]

Aww, Mexico got the rose.

 

[Velo Vol]

Yep.

 

[NorthDallas40]

Yep.

Nope

 

[ajvol01]

Yep.

What's your position?

Anything is good so long as Trump fails?

I'll never understand why so many hate him so much that they want him to fail even at the expense of our country.

TDS is a very serious mental illness. It is almost impossible to cure it.

My position is these tariff threats are dumb.

If you make an agreement with a country (remember the new and improved NAFTA?), then stick with it if you want your word to mean anything. Clearly Trump doesn't care about that.

LOL......with unemployment at 2% you were expecting large job growth? Everyone is working except the socialists! Now, in a few months, the salaries will increase, tax revenues will increase accordingly and Democrats will be sad that the country is prospering. This is economics 101.

Nonsense. Mexico has been letting the cartels have their way for decades.

What would you propose to stop the endless flow of illegal drugs, illegal aliens, human trafficking that the Mexican cartels use to fund all of their illegal activities?

Mexico could easily stop the flow of illegal aliens from Central American countries. Instead they give them a free pass so long as these people leave Mexico for the good ole US of A.

So Mexico caves and the Dims are devastated. Makes sense they want our country to fail.

Tariff threats work, we know....muh Trump.

TDS is a very serious mental illness. It is almost impossible to cure it.

The rumor is that a TDS cure will be available perhaps by mid 2025, but that depends greatly on whether Dims are still trying to convict him of obstruction, and have their hopes dashed ... again. However, it's of little consequence, since the world will end just a few years later, and Dims will still be frustrated because they haven't gotten him when the end comes.

When you read the release it's not clear Mexico actually agreed to do all that much more than it had agreed to before.

Where's the part that will fix Mexican drug cartels?

LMAO!

“It isn’t THAT good of a deal...”

I’ll bet she sounds hideous too huh?

Tariffs are eating up our tax refunds, you know, the ones they said we did not receive. Dems are always saying don't let your eyes fool you!

 

[Velo Vol]

Shhh. Don't let the facts get in the way of the MAGA FB memes.
