Trump’s tariff disaster continues to play out as exports of US agriculture products plummet. Countries that import American farm products will source elsewhere costing market share. Next will be legislation to provide farmers and ranchers billions of dollars in subsidies at taxpayer expense.

When asked by ABC reporter Terry Moran what the Declaration of Independence means to him, Trump responded “Well, it means exactly what it says, it’s a declaration, it’s a declaration of unity and love and respect, and it means a lot and it’s something very special to our country.” He has no clue.

MAGA folks whining that you didn’t sign up for this, Trump has an au contraire for you. … some people who voted for you, say “I didn’t sign up for this” — so how do you address those concerns? Trump: They did sign up for it, actually, and this is what I campaigned on. Fact-check: True.

Trump explains how his tariffs will impact children this Christmas. "Well, maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls, and maybe the two dolls will cost a couple of bucks more." Merry Christmas kids from the Grinch who’s stealing your Christmas, MAGA!

New Federal Election Commission filings shows that the Trump administration has dropped or paused federal enforcement cases against at least 17 corporations that donated to the president's inaugural fund, an indication that companies' attempts to bribe the White House are already paying off.

Trump oddly declared that he was the "fertilization president" during a Women's History Month event late Wednesday afternoon. I’m sure he’s fertilized numerous women during his decades of being married to the mothers of his children.

Democrats in Congress are increasingly nervous about primaries from younger, angrier and more liberal challengers. They should be nervous. Who needs leaders that don’t lead, lead from behind, or simply follow?

Just so I understand… if a president doesn’t like a federal agency or a federal program which congress created he simply writes an executive order and poof! It’s gone? It’s facing to see congress, a co-equal branch of government, simply roll over and play dead.

The 2 were charged in 2022 with rape, human trafficking, money laundering and starting an organized crime group. Trump pressured Romanian officials to lift the travel ban. MAGA!

Remember when Trump pursued an aggressive trade policy, imposing 10-20% tariffs on about $350 billion worth of Chinese imports, along with similar tariffs on steel and aluminum. But instead of shrinking, the trade deficit increased by nearly 40% from $480 billion in 2016 to $680 billion in 2020.

Democrats on the Hill are warning that Trump is sometimes acting outside the law and without regard for government services Americans rely on, and for the American tradition that a president must be subject to checks, balances, scrutiny and criticism. Of course, they haven’t done anything about it.

It will be interesting to see whether the major news organizations cave and submit to the felon or show strength and fiercely criticize what’s happening. I’m not hopeful the latter will prevail.

Our convicted felon signed the Laken Riley Act into law today, expanding the scope of those who can be arrested, detained and deported for minor an offense or assault on law enforcement officers. No conviction is necessary. Oddly, Trump just pardoned his supporters charged with assault on police.

The mainstream media should stop with the obsession of labeling “fake news” and fact checking and simply call a lie a lie. The headline isn’t what Trump said, the headline is that Trump lied. Most people don’t read past the headline so burying the fact that what was said is a lie is useless.

Everyone should remember that Trump was all for banning TikTok before he was against it saying a ban would empower Facebook, which called the "enemy of the people." Zuck the Cuck has since given Trump $1 M and is no longer the enemy. This allows Trump to flip flop on the ban.
