Sen Chris Murphy is right about Trump: “The tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy.” Trump can then offer us economic help in exchange for loyalty: “It’s the playbook for democratically elected leaders who want to stay in power forever.” My article deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-is-f... - ThreadSky

Same works in hungary and turkey.

We could stop the money flow. Boycott paying federal taxes! Bull shit walks, money talks. We need the next Tesla boycott. Any ideas?

davidjsteele.bsky.social•11 days ago

But he said he would do this and he still got elected.

bluedotinaredspace.bsky.social•10 days ago

Because he hates the same people they do and he loves them./s

Because Trump is so fucking stupid, he hears something once, decides it's a good idea, then never lets it go.

I think it's a mistake to think Trump is following anything he's just stupid and wants to hire people that's his playbook

Putin told him to collapse or drastically shrink every department, replace ever dept head and military leader with loyalists- then the collapse the economy

chad-frederick.bsky.social•10 days ago

I don't think Putin told him to shrink government... they've been wanting to do that since Goldwater

It’s the same authoritarian playbook that has been used to destroy democratic institutions in many countries

Is he dead yet? My fondest wish. When the orange turd does die there should be a public urinal set up beside his grave. I'm sure people will pay to piss on it. Call it "Piss 'N Pay." We could pay off the National debt in a matter of days. I'm sure people would like up to piss there.

Remember that 2024 Lou Dobbs interview in which tRump stated that if re-elected, he “did not want to serve a term similar to President Hoover’s” . . . ?!?
As usual, the Orange Traitor was lying.
While my mother always warned me not to “wish my life away”, I certainly am wishing for 2026.

Never.

airbagteacher.bsky.social•11 days ago

Possible. But more probable is that he doesn’t know shit about economics. It’s a SOCIAL study. And he’s not the sharpest tool in the shed. (But he is a tool.)

Trump is following Putin's playbook. He has been a Russian agent since 1987. #Krasnov #AgentOrange #ShitlersTurdReich

Ask the Crypto-bros.

Didn’t the Trump boys (Uday and Usay) just start a crypto thing?

The richs are gonna get richer, and the poors are gonna get poorer.

tenorleggiero.bsky.social•10 days ago

I am starting to believe this is all in the service of Krasnov writing his name in history as the most powerful man who ever lived. Bring down the entire world economy? Sure, he doesn’t care. Destroy the environment? Check. All this psychopath cares about is feeding his own ego.

It is rather the mobsters' playbook of "I will charge you for protection because it would be a shame if something happened to you or your shop". It's also called extortion.

jbfletcher2024.bsky.social•10 days ago

💯 totally

It's an escalation of what we lived through for 4 years before. Create a crisis then pretend you will solve it and rescue the people and the country from the crisis you created.

markthespark207.bsky.social•11 days ago

because he works for Russia

toddhecker.bsky.social•10 days ago

Collapsing the economy has also been the plan of the network state techbros.

colleent333.bsky.social•11 days ago

Let's face it: Trump is Mr. Potter from It's a Wonderful Life. Who knew that holiday classic was a training film for how to resist the forces of corruption?
