THE TRUMP 2024 THREAD

[vantexan]

Total Federal Spending Outlays per Fiscal Year under Trump

• FY 2017: $3.98 trillion
• FY 2018: $4.11 trillion
• FY 2019: $4.45 trillion

Compared to...

• FY 2008: $2.98 trillion
• FY 2009: $3.52 trillion (Stimulus spending due to the Great Recession)
• FY 2010: $3.46 trillion
• FY 2011: $3.60 trillion
• FY 2012: $3.54 trillion
• FY 2013: $3.45 trillion (Sequestration cuts took effect)
• FY 2014: $3.65 trillion
• FY 2015: $3.69 trillion

No issue there. Trump had to compromise with the Dems to get his military spending. Now compare with Biden's four years.

Nothing has been sillier than leftists over the last few years.

The normal (if any are left)Dims keep going there and supporting it.
The extreme side of the party will be the end of the party.

This is what the other option was for president

Maybe if the Democrats ran someone who wasn’t a cackling maroon they would’ve had a fighting chance?

 

[vantexan]

I guess you kind of made my point he’s not a virologist, but he is a real conservative. he understood that regardless of what was being said spending the money like this would’ve been the wrong thing to do and somehow he was right.

So he has a track record of being able to understand these situations. Trump has a record of understanding other situations, but when it comes to money, it’s a little shaky.

Yet Trump is doing everything possible to eliminate spending. Did anyone, including Massie, see what Trump is trying to do coming? As the saying goes, if you like sausage you better not watch how it's made.

 

[BrownFlush]

Trump is a Populist.
He's very Popular, too.

 

[BrownFlush]

Tell me about Musk's military service in South Africa or Trump's military service in the U.S. first.

Does service to America have to be military to mean something?
Both these men are wanted targets by idiots all over the world for their service.

 

[Gotta Go]

Obviously we'd be in better shape...
If puppet candidates continued to be elected...

Pretty much all maroons these days now that Manchin is gone.

This isn’t an indictment on every thing Trump does. But pride goes before fall. No one has all the answers. And Massie more than anyone probably in Congress understands how the sausage is made because he read these bills. His opinion should be welcome to by Trump not castigated and threatened.

No doubt Trump has little tolerance for dissent. Mike Pompeo did a great job as Secretary of State but he made the fatal flaw of running for president this last election. Wasn't invited back.

Pompeo did not run for president in 2024.

 

[vantexan]

Pompeo did not run for president in 2024.

He threw his hat in the ring in 2023 but was getting no traction so withdrew.

He never ran.

 

[vantexan]

He never ran.

Let's say he strongly hinted he was interested and while doing so took some shots at Trump. Trump demands loyalty. A lot of people thought Trump would pick DeSantis for VP. Nope, ran against him. Where's Nikki Haley?

I thought Pompeo did a good job, too

 

[Next Day Err]

I have no idea what Americans do or don’t want

You sure did when it comes to what trans Americans should or shouldn’t do

 

[Next Day Err]

New 50% duties on Canadian steel and aluminum?

Gonna be interesting if drag queens stay at the top of MAGA’s list of concerns as they struggle paying for food and rent if Trump plunges us into a deep recession.

 

[Thebrownblob]

Yep, because they voted against it. TTKU I thought you said it wasn’t the problem worth of dealing with? Again, you don’t have much sense and none of it is common. You are wholly and completely an example of what constant bias media does to people. Common sense goes out the window rationality is no longer. Even the justification of hate and death of your fellow countrymen because they did not do what you wanted. You can be told anything and believe it because you’re told to and it’s popular in your echo chamber.

 

[Next Day Err]

Anyone want to get on the record with whether or not they think President Trump should be able to run again in 2028?
