COMMUNITY United States Politics Thread: Trump's Second Term

[Loneshot]

There’s only gonna be one party the way this is going

So u ain’t even gonna have to worry bout all that

There's already one party. That party that ran against Trump were not Democrats. Trump is essentially a Nazi party and the so called Democrats are the new Republicans. The common or working class citizen has been on life support since Clinton. He was a corporate sellout too, yet the so called liberal media sells his types as some sort of friend of the common man.

We've all seen Higher Learning, who owns all this? It's not the working class. We've been behind enemy lines. Trump at least is a clear enemy, but the fake Left-corporate party likes to hide their prejudice and greed behind social welfare. In four years if the Corporate party is back in office, we are still behind enemy lines.

Liberal media..
Since Clinton

Maybe in four years we will stop pretending there are only two parties.

I doubt it brother

For example deregulation of banks/Wall Street under Clinton administration (glass steagall). Which long term led to the Occupy Wall Street protests after the recession during Obama administration.

People forget or don't know their history.

Both sides.

Did yall see a lot of black people out at all those protests that's happening around the country?

Were there " a lot" of black people because I saw buku white liberals.

Is it that majority of black folks are on some "fuck it" let's see where this goes...cuz I don't see the black folks out at these rallies in "huge" numbers

What's up with that?

I believe I saw black people on the news coverage of he DC protest, so some are out there. When it comes to protests over shit that affects everyone, the crowds will be largely white because the country's population is still largely white.

I do think it's also true that a lot of black people are tired of trying to fight against the system alone and are happy to sit back and let others do their part.

That part, that's bolded.

I have a question for you, to anybody

Thoughts on this, would you support Trump using the DOGE money to give 5k back to the American folks??

We don't know what he will or will not do, before you niggas be on some "he aint doing that, Trump's a lie", all politicians lie, just like Biden and Kamala, so Trump can be lying, he said it would be an idea that he stands on..

Do you support this

 

[Knock_Twice]

What's the word on this issue??

Should we be happy about this? or should we ignore it? All these fuckers are crooks to me, but what are the thoughts on this?? Is DOGE over doing this shit?

I can't say anything about what you did or didn't see. All I can say is that I saw news reports showing some black people out at the DC protests.

Do you support this

No I wouldn't support that. Fucking up the government and then giving people one-time $5000 checks to distract from all the damage they're doing is scammer shit. If you fall for that, you're an idiot. Now if Trump had gone about this in an organized manner, found actual yearly waste like they are claiming, and gave that out as universal basic income to American citizens, then yes I would support that.

Trump official calls Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid ‘wrong’

The president and his allies are justifying cuts on allegations of ‘waste’ to pay for his tax plan

www.independent.co.uk

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are ramping up baseless claims that tens of millions of dead people are collecting Social Security payments, laying the groundwork to cut out “waste” and “fraud” as they look to make dramatic cuts for some of the most expensive programs in the federal budget to pay for astronomical tax cuts for America’s wealthiest households.

Despite promises on the campaign trail that his administration would not touch Social Security, and claiming that his Democratic rivals are the ones trying to end it, Trump and the world’s wealthiest man and his allies are trying to justify cuts to Social Security and federal health programs Medicare and Medicaid to come up with Musk’s target figure of more than $1 trillion in savings.


On Jesse Watters Primetime on Fox News on Wednesday, recently confirmed Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick hailed the work of Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency, which is “gonna cut a trillion dollars of waste fraud and abuse,” Lutnick said.

“You know Social Security is wrong, you know Medicare and Medicaid is wrong, so he's going to cut one trillion,” Lutnick added. “Get rid of all these tax scams that hammer against Americans and we’re gonna raise a trillion dollars in revenue, and our objective, under Donald Trump, is to balance this budget.”

Lutnick also suggested Trump will create an “External Revenue Service” and abolish the IRS to let “all the outsiders pay” federal taxes for which Americans are responsible.

He definitely going to try to remain President for a 3rd term. I don’t think he’ll be as popular by then though, even with MAGA.

That man wants to be President until he dies.

Did you or any of your family members/friends cash yall stimulus checks when they were giving out under Trump and Biden?? Did you say, nah, I'm not cashing these checks because I know there is some funny stuff going on with the gov't or did you say, I will cash these checks because I think the gov't is not playing fair and not doing any scamming shit??

Did you fall for the stimulus check?

Give me my 5k, and give me yours and your friends 5k.

You're the idiot if you don't take the free 5k.

I’m not sending the money back if it comes, that’s for damn sure.

But will I all of a sudden look at Trump and Elon any differently? No.

If they do this it’s basically a bribe to America to let them do shit that would cost most people well over $5k. Those black federal employees losing their jobs are losing a lot more than $5k. And black people that will have fewer opportunities due to reinstatement of discriminatory practices will lose a lot more than $5k. All of the people being served by federal funds will lose a lot more than $5k.
