ZERO SUM IMMIGRANTS? Immigrants are not “taking” your jobs. It’s not a zero sum economy. The economy is expanding. Businesses grow and hire more people. Plus the immigrants themselves also buy more products and services which further increases the size of the economy. Too many people believe in a zero sum world. It’s what Trump preaches…. Win-Lose vs Lose-Win. Economic growth is Win-Win.
TRUMP HONORS INSURRECTIONISTS WITH MILITARY BASE NAMES. At Trump’s Fort Bragg speech he proclaimed he was changing the name of military bases back to their original Confederate name. However, the bases aren’t named for the Confederate military hero, but instead an American military leader or hero with the same last name. For example, Fort Lee in Virginia was originally named after Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee, renamed in 2023 to Fort Gregg-Adams after Lt. Gen. Arthur Gregg and Lt. Col. Charity Adams — will now honor Pvt. Fitz Lee, commended for heroism in the Spanish-American War. This is deception and dishonesty. It’s what con men do. These military bases were named after Confederates who took arms up against the United States. Trump celebrates them while condemning protesters of ICE raids as insurrections. The irony is thick.
TRUMP WANTS 1 YEAR IN JAIL FOR BURNING THE AMERICAN FLAG. More shiny objects. More distractions. More red meat for the red base. Burning a flag is how you properly dispose of it. Trump is throwing this BS out there to further divide Americans and keep the focus on his true aims.
The whole point is to not make sense… to confuse and divide. Now watch the other hand.
ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS ARE INVADERS! No, they are immigrants. Invaders come armed with the intent to take control by force. This scapegoating of immigrants simply because they don’t have paperwork is insane. The insanity of it all is the whole point. It lets Trump further consolidate power. See the military in Downtown LA.
WE’RE MAKING SO MUCH MONEY OFF TARIFFS. That’s the rhetoric coming from Trump and MAGA. But this tariff revenue is paid by American importers. The costs of that tariff are passed down the supply chain to distributors, retailers and customers. Do some foreign corporations attempt to absorb some of the burden of the tariff? Sure, but the Americans are still the ones paying it.
POW! RIGHT BETWEEN THE EYES. Joe Walsh warned us. Too many people live a life of illusion… disconnected from reality. They just believe things without critical thinking.
