Wrestleknownothing Posted January 23 Posted January 23 1. Please someone explain how these two meme coins issued by the Trumps are not a massive grift. 2. Please also explain how they are not a national security risk in that they create an open avenue to bribe and influence the President. Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge
red viking Posted January 23 Posted January 23 (edited) Just another money making scheme. There are suckers born every day. Plenty of idiots out there will gladly give the Trumps their hard-earned money. It's also extremely obvious by now that Trump will give power to those that support him, and weaponize the government against those that oppose him. We're definitely moving toward something similar to Stalin, Hitler, Kim Jong Un, etc. . Interesting that he had Zuckerberg, Musk and Bezos all sitting in the front row during his inauguration. Can you say oligarchy? Edited January 23 by red viking
headshuck Posted January 23 Posted January 23 I’d rather see them up front where we can keep an eye on them vs slithering around behind the scenes like Soros, Schwab or Gates.

VakAttack Posted January 23 Posted January 23 His whole presidency is a grift, just like last time. The wins for his working class constituents wil be primarily cultural, not economic, just like last time. They seem happy with this so...

Yes; better to just give the oligarchs direct power where they can directly give themselves financial favors (e.g. Musk being put in charge of DOGE).

Trump won because people were better off 4 years ago than they were under Biden. Trump won in 2016 because the people were tired of Obama and his version of "this is as good as it is gonna get" and wanted better. Trump gave better. Better economy, better tax structure, better business environment. That is what MAGA was about. It was a repudiation of Obama and his economic thinking. You might argue this and that is fair. But that is what happened. mspart

It's weird when people go to the "4 years ago argument" without actually acknowledging what was happening 4 years ago. 1

But before that happened, we had a lot of economic activity that was positive. Plus you live in FL where the restrictions were lifted quickly and didn't feel the full weight of the lock downs. Here in WA we lived in lock down mode for over a year and a half. mspart 1

The majority of economic issues that Biden dealt with were supply-chain related issues that all stemmed from COVID, but he and the Dems didn't get a break for that. Egg price and poultry prices are about to go up again as Georgia has shut down almost all production due to bird flue related issues, are you going to stick those raised prices on Trump, or are we going to show some nuance of thought now and realize that most of those issues are far outside of what the president has power to actually directly affect?
