Giving off a millennials vibe. The boomers, silent, and before are complicit. Young folks don’t want the drama.
THE TRUMP 2024 THREAD
- Thread starter Wally
- Start date
Boomers are complicit? South Africa formally handed power over to the black majority in 1994. The last birth year of boomers was 1964 so the youngest boomers were 30 years old in '94. That means boomers were coming into positions of authority in the 90's and their influence had a great effect on U.S. policy towards apartheid.
And you still haven't answered the question. If white farmers in rural areas are getting murdered and the South African government is threatening to confiscate their land then do the whites have the right to seek asylum here? Can you give a clear answer without the gobbledygook?

trump is not the first president to work tariffs. clearly he's taken it to another level. Looks like FDR may have been the first to float reciprocal tariffs.
Several U.S. presidents have implemented tariffs without congressional approval by leveraging delegated authorities from laws like the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, the Trade Act of 1974, and the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). Key examples include:
The Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act of 1934, passed during FDR’s presidency, delegated tariff-setting authority to the executive branch, allowing FDR to negotiate trade agreements and adjust tariffs.

- Richard Nixon (1971): Imposed a 10% surcharge on all imports under the Trading with the Enemy Act to address a balance-of-payments crisis.
- Jimmy Carter (1978): Applied tariffs on color TVs.
- Ronald Reagan (1983, 1987): Imposed tariffs on motorcycles and Japanese electronics.
- George H.W. Bush (1991): Targeted Canadian lumber.
- Bill Clinton (1995): Levied tariffs on Japanese luxury cars.
- George W. Bush: Implemented steel tariffs.
- Donald Trump (2018, 2025): Used Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act for steel (25%) and aluminum (10%) tariffs in 2018, citing national security, and invoked IEEPA in 2025 for tariffs on Canada (25%), Mexico (25%), and China (10%), declaring a national emergency over trade imbalances and immigration.
The president doesn’t have the power to set tariffs—Congress does
Tariffs in the second Trump administration - Wikipedia - Joe Biden: Maintained Trump’s tariffs and expanded some, including a 100% tariff on Chinese electric vehicles under Section 301.

Do you know what has no class? Lying about your cancer for multiple years. Then costing your party, the presidency because you refuse to bow out gracefully.

No proof at all that he lied about his cancer. That’s what makes Trump and you have zero class
True, in spite of doctors saying advanced prostate cancer like Biden's takes 5-10 years to develop, it's entirely plausible that Biden developed full blown cancer in the last 100 days. Why would he lie about his health? It's not like there are books by former staffers and media talking heads discussing how they all colluded to cover up Biden's issues. Had to be some other reason his party kicked him to the curb in favor of an airhead. What could it be, what could it be....

Baloney. The President gets a comprehensive health exam regularly. Goes with the job. The White House doctor kept giving Biden a clean bill of health. It's not the type of cancer that just blows up from out of nowhere. Next thing you're going to tell us is Biden was the sharpest, hardest working guy in his administration.Screenings for prostate cancer stop in your early 70s.

Retired 2020. Not my Problem Anymore!
How can this be? He was only back a few days and actually was not saying much at all. Could you imagine being around him in real life? His anger, fear, non stop TDS talk and doom & gloom would drive most people away. I can’t imagine he has a wife or friends.
