    Its fairly obvious his Trump Tax Bull is nothing more than market manipulating pump and dump shenanigans. That being said all this is going to come home to roost for the Republicans who are enabling this BS as well as the damage from all this will only become clear later on when its too late to sort it out at least without massive pain involved.

    In reality it’s probably much less than that if the real adjusted for depreciation figure for the donated equipment are used

    Great value considering it’s destroyed a good chunk of the Russian military might

    Well, as we all know, Trump wasn't elected President to be sane, coherent and respectful of deceased US military members.

    Imagine starting a Memorial Day message which features the word "scum" within the first ten words. The man is simply deranged.

    His vendetta against judges seems even more worrying.

    Is that 21 trillion immigrants he is claiming?

    Does it matter ?

    They are all made up numbers with no basis in fact or reality

    Quite a lot of the ammo they sent was obsolete anyway and due for destruction.

    I'm not sure the 258million people whose lives were saved from fentanyl overdoses since Trump became President would agree with you.

    That's nearly 100,000 per second for every second of Biden's term. People traffickers must be far more logistically capable than I ever imagined

    Steven Pinker wrote a very good piece in the NY Times the other day about the reality of Harvard, which contrasts Trump's insane vendetta against it, with the very real mistakes it did make and which arguably led to this crazy war started by the Trump administration.

    Absolutely deranged

    Donald Trump Truth Social 05.26.25 07:22 AM EST

    HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY TO ALL, INCLUDING THE SCUM THAT SPENT THE LAST FOUR YEARS TRYING TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRY THROUGH WARPED RADICAL LEFT MINDS, WHO ALLOWED 21,000,000 MILLION PEOPLE TO ILLEGALLY ENTER OUR COUNTRY, MANY OF THEM BEING CRIMINALS AND THE MENTALLY INSANE,THROUGH AN OPEN BORDER THAT ONLY AN INCOMPETENT PRESIDENT WOULD APPROVE, AND THROUGH JUDGES WHO ARE ON A MISSION TO KEEP MURDERERS, DRUG DEALERS, RAPISTS, GANG MEMBERS, AND RELEASED PRISONERS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD, IN OUR COUNTRY SO THEY CAN ROB, MURDER, AND RAPE AGAIN — ALL PROTECTED BY THESE USA HATING JUDGES WHO SUFFER FROM AN IDEOLOGY THAT IS SICK, AND VERY DANGEROUS FOR OUR COUNTRY. HOPEFULLY THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT, AND OTHER GOOD AND COMPASSIONATE JUDGES THROUGHOUT THE LAND, WILL SAVE US FROM THE DECISIONS OF THE MONSTERS WHO WANT OUR COUNTRY TO GO TO HELL. BUT FEAR NOT, WE HAVE MADE GREAT PROGRESS OVER THE LAST 4 MONTHS, AND AMERICA WILL SOON BE SAFE AND GREAT AGAIN! AGAIN, HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY, AND GOD BLESS AMERICA!

    Does anybody have any words? Imagine the family of a fallen soldier reading that.

    "Happy Memorial Day" as if it was a day out to Disneyland or Waterworld.

    The military loves him. They don't care that he is insulting them (they probably don't even realise it) because he is busy insulting others, and that is great with them.

    Same with workers, middle-income and poorer. They don't care that more effort is being put into getting religion into schools than into having adequate schools available and a proper education system.

    Trump is not some sort of anomaly that managed to hoodwink his way into power. He was welcomed, feted, cheered and pushed into power by those who knew exactly what he was and what he represents. And they continue to clap and cheer now that his failures are all coming home to roost. His approval ratings have hardly changed, and people are pretty satisfied with what he is doing and how he goes about it.

    I have no sympathy for the families of fallen soldiers, or fallen police officers, etc regarding Trump. They should have been out shouting in the streets about how terrible this man was, but you can bet a sizeable portion actually voted for him.

    Whenever he complains about illegals entering the country, he always mentions rapists, and yet he has been proven in a court to be a sexual assaulter himself who has been caught on tape bragging about sexually assaulting women.

    Trump in his speech to graduates at West Point 'No one wanted to join the Military while Biden was president'

    All of the graduates had joined when Biden was in power.

    Usually these would be called "gaffes", yet, this is all normal enough for him.

    I didn’t realise Biden let in 21 trillion immigrants. Impressive numbers.

    I did not know that the 258 million Americans- ‘that have been saved’ - would have ALL shorted fentanyl if it was available!!!!!!!!

    As a convicted felon, it's a bit unfair to be picking on his fellow rapists and ne'er-do-wells but not call out his fellow pump and dump insider trading buddies. How is one side of his goon squad going to feel when they other side is favoured?

    This is the cynicism of MAGA in a nutshell - open lying is an upgrade and a quality to be touted and championed.

    At this stage, I'm convinced there's someone in the White House who's got themselves a book deal on the basis of revealing - in about three and a half years - how Trump was so demented, they were able to plant all kinds of shoite in his brain and watch him amplify it into global chaos.

    It's like the scene in The Big Lebowski where Walter and The Dude are scattering Donny's ashes and Walter starts banging on about Vietnam during his speech.

    the maniacal lunatic simply cannot help himself.

    I was sure Joe Walsh is staunch Anti-Trump with his career in the republican party ruined because of it. Saying that, many people have changed their tone recently on that front.

    Wearing a cross when you don't follow the teachings is also a lie.
