Donald Trump the Megathread part II - Mod Warning updated in OP 12/2/26

Claiming it's business language doesn't ring true. He could say ten times less and that would make mathematical sense. You just have a tendency to explain away stupid **** that comes from his administration. Can't expect more from a guy who uses a roll of toilet paper per month though.

Further to that: The temporary appointment she got from Trump as temporary D.A. for the district of New Jersey has been terminated and her assistant prosecutor voted in by a panel of mostly democrat-appointed Federal Judges.

Apparently two Democrat senators, Corey Booker and Andy Kim, halted the appointment in congress. Habba was the D.A who charged Newark's mayor with trespass at a N.J. migrant holding centre after he was arrested during a row with border agents there. Habba also said she would pursue charges against politicians who violate Trump's executive orders.

The peculiar thing about this alleged termination is that the Daily Mail is wording it as Habba no longer having an official role in the Trump Admin while claiming that Trump formally appointed her to the permanent position.

Jesus that’s some mental gymnastics to get there.
so when he originally was talking of reducing drug prices by up to 90% did he mean 9%?

Genuinely embarrassed for you reading though this.

You must already know you're wrong, and are flailing about trying to recover somehow, but it's painful to look at.

I just logged onto Sketch engine, and using the English Web 2021 online corpus of just over 52 billion words, I searched for '1000% reduction' and got this:

Yep I've encountered weird scenarios like that but it really doesn't make sense in this context.

Take it you're not willing to cite some references for your odd math. 😂

I’m taking this 1000% cheaper lark as a method of “shouting” out some small benefit some people on drug schemes might benefit from in some small way in the future-and making it out to be something wonderful - so vague, no time frame, no specifics on what drugs - just bullsh1t basically - in his brain he’s probably claiming that people will save $1000s without him actually doing the calculations, so 1000% savings covers it all 🤣

One of the most successful businessmen in the world - nope, look at his bankruptcies, look at his grifting and shilling for dollars online, and having to lie on his tax returns for which he is a convicted felon. The most openly corrupt US President in the modern era.

He is running the biggest economy in the world into the ground with his economically insane policies, the only reason he hasn't succeeded is the Fed reserve chairman (who he wants to fire) and him chickening out when the bond markets gets spooked.

You find it 'refreshing' that Trump can say whatever comes into his mind - let's not forget folks that includes racist hate, sexist trolling, laughing about victims of violence… If you find that entertaining and you get a kick out of it, well that is a position of absolute moral and political bankruptcy.
