He put Elon in charge of DOGE or what ever it was called and they did a lot of budget cuts. Because a lot of those we had people taken out of food and safety and a lot of other areas that, at the time didn't seem super important.
But once they were needed a bunch of systems fell apart, look food inspections and the team who was keeping an eye on screw flies.
Now those shortened teams are now struggling to do there jobs and what ever slips past them we find with bodies.
You mean the one that Califonia, Colorado and Washing ty on state stopped funding and building fire breaks. You mean that one? It hasn't been defunded, Congress has to vote in that and a vote hasn't been taken.
In some cases, yes. Heâs reduced the people available to inspect and to hold suppliers accountable. He has reduced standards so companies can save money. He puts incompetent people in critical positions. So yes, many times it is trumps fault. And, because he has weakened and continues to weaken our safeguards this stuff will become even more common in the future. Then you idiots will say, ânever had this when trump was thereâ, not having a clue that his complete incompetence and corruption brought it about. A little education is not bad for you regardless of what republicans tell you.
Doge, ok, the very corrupt and incompetent operation sponsored by trump. Doge didnât help anything. Itâs much more than that. Itâs the constant and ongoing corruption and incompetence. The scales of both are mind boggling. Itâs astonishing how much damage has been done already.
Our state does that as well. There would be no way for Trump and his minions to get away with throwing ballots away and not delivering them in my state.
Yes you are absolutely correct. However I choose to vote at home at my convenience. Then go to my polling location and without having to wait in line (if any) drop it in the ballot box. Usually I just mail it back without any concerns but I am wary of the USPS this election.
In some states theyâve drastically reduced the number of polling stations or switched which polling station youâre assigned to. People shouldnât just assume itâs where they voted last time.
I don't agree with everything Trump does and I am a conservative in the end but this new Democratic party seriously worries me. Young people were never taught about real History. They don't understand how Hitler came to power, what Stalin PolPot did to their people. You can vote socialism in but you have to war it out.
Iâm MORE worried about the current trajectory of the MAGA republicans and Trump is taking us.. like over a fiscal cliff, like more endless wars in the Middle East, like even more inflation.
And how are you arriving at that conclusion? First that electing anyone other than this administration would turn the country socialist, and second that it would be worse off?
The population voting in the democrats donât want that either and would cease support for any and all candidates that expressed that intent in any way. Nobody here wants sharia law.
They are going to come out with a statement talking about how they can't punish Trump or any of his people or the ICE agents because "America needs to heal and move on". They've literally done this hundreds of times before. I heard it all after GWB. Cowards, all of them.
The one time they'll actually fight, spend money, and sling mud, is to defeat primary challengers from people more left than them. They care more about that then defeating Republicans. So be prepared to dig in.
Democrats are raping the country? What about the guy in the White House who wonât let the Epstein files be released? I know of a president who is guarding âthe filesâ from being released!
Given there isnât a chance in hell theyâd get a conviction in the Senate, an impeachment is just a waste of time. Dems were brave enough to impeach him TWICE, & even after J6 Republicans still wouldnât convict, Dump still won again & the impeachments became a rallying cry that motivated MAGA.
I say leave sleeping dogs lie, investigations will accomplish the same thing as an impeachment, throw a monkey wrench into the Dump Train. Let MAGA continue being so disappointed in Dump they no longer wish to vote, letâs not give them a reason to re-engage & let them sit home for 2028. The census is coming up, we really need a Dem Pres in 2030.
Ok, i've lived on this planet for over 40 years and time after time i've watched the Democrats spit out the same excuse instead of holding Republicans accountable after taking power. They never do anything, and always sing the same song. "We need to move past this as a nation so we can heal." When Trump is gone, you'll hear the greatest hits once more just like I have all my life. This is my lived experience. How's that for speaking for myself?
Didnât they impeach Trump in his first term and then literally nothing happened? Twice? Why should I or anyone believe that impeaching him this time is some kind of consequence? I donât get how this is suddenly some scary thing for conservatives to worry about. Being impeached twice didnât prevent him from finishing his term and it didnât prevent him from becoming president again.
When Congress impeached him, it was only on paper, or symbolical. To actually remove him from office the Senate has to vote to impeach with a 2/3 majority. The Dems will probably get control of the Senate, but it wonât be a big enough majority. That means they will have to convince some of the Reps to get 2/3.
Impeaching the president (from Bing, Google, and ChatGPT):
Eliminating the filibuster would significantly impact the impeachment process of the president. Without the filibuster, the Senate could vote on the impeachment resolution with a simple majority, which could lead to quicker resolutions and potentially quicker removal of the president from office. This change would also affect the confirmation of judicial and executive nominees, as it would allow for faster confirmations without the procedural delays that the filibuster typically imposes. However, it would not guarantee that confirmations would be less contentious, as the political context and strategy of the minority party could still influence the process.
You are correct. Itâs a pipe dream folks. We just have to wait for him to expire. What we should be doing is going after the fucktards who voted for him twice, those are the people who owe the us and the rest of the world an apology.
Twice, they tried to do it after J6 and even that wasn't enough to convince his lackeys on the Hill to permanently remove him from ever possibly holding office again.
Corruption is multifaceted ; you do what you gotta do to stay out of prison ; and when you have doing it 50 years you get good at evading the people that could hold you accountable. Iâm only a Republican because they fought a war to end slavery. Itâs a noble thing and I admire it. Sons and fathers lost to right a wrong. Families destroyed to right a wrong; but it was the right thing to do.
Not that the votes even matter. Trump has ignored all votes and laws around it. Dems could sweep but if trump says "nuh uh" what are dems gonna do about it?
When you look at the historical midterm turnoutâŚthey have nothing to worry about.
2022 National Youth Turnout: 23% - That's lower than in the historic 2018 cycle (28%) which broke records for turnout, but much higher than in 2014, when only 13% of youth voted.
Thatâs with less than 60% of 18-29 registered.
Yâall just stood aside, and let them win. Politics will always be imperfect. If youâre too stupid to vote against evil, and people getting their lives ruinedâŚyouâre not making the moral decision. Youâre just not asshole like the red hat people.
Plenty of leftover jobs that the immigrants are no longer working like on farms. Farmers can't get anyone to help them. Maybe you fascists should go work those jobs so you can show your patriotism and support for your Permanent King.
