[Politics] Donald Trump, US President

[Bodian]

He goes on and on about egg prices - and says they have come down 87%, and if anything 'are too low'.

Trouble is - the actual price of eggs for the consumer hasn't really come down!

Not All Price Hikes Are Created Equal

Egg prices are still high, even though bird flu cases are down and production costs are falling. So why aren’t prices falling, too? And why does it all feel a little unfair?

Fatso’s destroying America’s reputation and hurting the US. In the medium term Americans will feel the pain. Rednecks might get a boner at the sight of cheap petrol, but that means very little when he’s trashing the prospects of Tesla, Boeing, Hyatt, Delta.

As a precautionary measure, I’d like to preemptively announce that I have not at any point received war plans or classified information from Pickled Pete Hegseth.

Seems every other bugger has.

Agent Krasnov . Forever in debt in every way to his Russian bosses.

I must admit, I can't remember actually 'looking forward' to attending a funeral.

 

[Bodian]

Nor can I recall any 'intimidation' of judges by the radical left. But there seems to have been plenty of threatening being carried out by Trump and his mob.

Maybe he's afraid of what he & Melania would see if they looked to the left or the right. Although he's more inclined to look right.

There is one funeral I would really look forward to, not that I'd be invited. A world wide party and celebrations for the funeral of the orange one.

I can't ever remember seeing someone pay their respects to the dead, stood next to someone in a huge rabbit costume either, but he did that too!

Wouldn't actually surprise me.

But he's "owning the Libs". That's all they care about.

And now he’s calling the head of the Federal Reserve a “loser” for not lowering interest rates. The usual childish playground insults

It's the exclamation mark at the end too. Just weird.

We may laugh, but I have seen photos of Trump supporters with Trump is God (capital G) which should ring alarm bells with the Bible belt who seem to support him.
At any other time in history, that would be considered blasphemy.

I have an old friend from school, that I have known for more than 60 years, who settled in the USA back in the early’70’s. He got religion in a big, big way and is what I would call a fanatic. He is also a very staunch Trump supporter and can see no wrong in the man or his ruinous policies. There is absolutely no reasoning with my old friend and so it is with all the others of his ilk.
We have absolutely nothing in common now and I should really call him a former friend.

There are two facets to this which, again, serve to illustrate just how appalling Trump is:

1. Jerome Powell, the current chair of the Federal Reserve, was appointed by Donald Trump himself.
2. The chair of the Federal Reserve does not control interest rates. Similarly to the UK, they are set by committee.

Until they lose their job or notice their 401(k) has plummeted.
