Everyone says eggs and Ukraine, as if a couple of missed goals is anything at all in politics, but the rest of his agenda is coming together fast and hard. If only Liberals had half the drive or ambition with their own agendas when they got to power, but Liberals never do. If we're talking about missed goals, then literally everything Biden campaigned on...

Sub-standard trolling has been a thing on FS for years now, but even so, this is a poor effect.

LOL 0/10

Spelling that matches the political ideology.

So you're either a really lazy troll or really ignorant about how US politics work. Not quite sure which is more pathetic.

I hope you get food poisoning the next four years, Republiturd.

Who cares?

Also his name is Donald Trump, not Donal.

Doesn't matter how much you get done if you've done the wrong thing. A lot of people are going to suffer and die the more successful he is. And you're happy about it....so pathetic.

>Everyone says eggs and Ukraine, as if a couple of missed goals is anything at all in politics

Except it's an actual issue how much groceries are for Americans. That was one of voter's number one concerns. Everyone says that conservatives don't care about identity politics and just want to feed their families, but the new leader of their party can't even do that for us. Enjoy your tariffs.

May they reap what they sow.

That is, homelessness and starvation.

Egg prices went up.

Man, this bait is almost as shitty as the Republican party platform.

His goal is to dismantle the republic like a cheap chop shop and sell it off piecemeal to oligarchs while enriching himself, to enact project 2025 (carte blanche, emphasis on the blanche, for racists, bigots, and sexists) and to punish the libs and further impoverish anyone who's not already a multi-millionaire.

His "success" is the suffering of everyone else.

Exactly.

They're also going to crash the economy and elevate bitcoin.

I admit I'm darkly amused at people saying they're going to fuck off to Europe to escape. Do they realize how many right wingers are coming into power there these days?

It's all rich asshole oligarch dark money now. We are well and squarely fucked, for a while, anyway.

I feel like you are missing the point of why the fuck can Democrats not get shit done even a quarter as fast, and why the fuck do they always dither, why can the democrats not be better?

But you are too busy being triggered and screaming slurs.

The only one I see being triggered even though there are zero slurs in the post you replied to is you. Why are you such a fragile snowflake?

Take it down a notch Madame Shouty, and try re-reading.

Re: Donal Trump is really moving fast with his agenda and getting far more done than he's failed.

Because most of what Trump has been doing is populistic loudmouthing and most of it won't work out as easy as he believes because he's kind of dumb. And it IS far easier to just lean into populistic posturing instead of trying to make a positive change for people, which Trump is entirely uninterested in.

... where are the "slurs" being "screamed" in that post?

Anon who said the Republican party platform is "carte blanche for bigots" here and the thing is, it's a lot easier to break things than it is to do new stuff, and a lot of what Trump is doing and wants to do is dismantle and unmake existing infrastructure and laws and norms to hurt people he considers his enemies and to enrich himself.

It's like how Republicans under McConnell (spits) put forth the occasional show legislation they knew would go nowhere about "marriage is only between a man and a woman" or whatever, but famously what they did under Obama was become "the party of no."

They didn't have the power or votes to really enact the vilest parts of their agenda then, but they could scuttle a lot of proposed progressive legislation just by stalling it in various ways.

Which is still, in most ways that don't involve further enriching the rich, their policy. They don't want to pass new laws or allocate new funding to help more people, they want to dismantle existing laws that protect people and make their lives easier, and claw back funding so the rich can steal it.

Democrats, as flawed and timid as they sometimes are, mostly come in going "how can we help people? Are there any groups of people that we've left out of previous legislation? Can we find funding to help more people?"

Republicans dgaf about people unless they're rich white straight cis ablebodied Christians.

I'll give you an example. In his previous term, Trump made a big deal about how US tax policy is too complicated so obviously everyone should hate the IRS for not making it simpler.

But the IRS not only offers free fillable forms online, they teamed up with various online tax prep companies (Turbotax et al) to offer free filing for people under a certain income limit using online tax prep software. The program is called IRS Free File, it's great.

But why didn't they just tell people how much they owed and let them pay it? Well, those same tax prep companies plus H&R Block donated tons of money to Republicans and claimed the IRS telling people how much they owed was government overreach, so Republicans passed laws saying the IRS couldn't just tell people what they owed, even though that's already what they do if you're audited.

Under Biden, those laws were overturned and a pilot program called Direct File was implemented last year, where you could just log in to the IRS site, they would tell you what you owed, and you'd pay it. No calculations required, but you could file instead if you thought they'd messed up.

After all Trump's whining about how US tax policy should fit on a postcard, he now wants to discontinue Direct File (because ~~it costs companies money~~ ~~Biden's admin implemented it~~ it's government overreach.)

This thread's a good example of everyone displaying the two-party team tribal mindset, sigh.

OP saying "Trump is getting things done" is not necessarily "Trump is good." The things can be bad.

OP saying "Liberals don't get things done" is not necessarily "Liberal things are bad and shouldn't be done." OP might want liberals to get more things done and hates that the Democratic party is so ineffectual.

You can be liberal/leftist and dislike the Democratic party and think they're out of touch, ineffectual, and owned by donors, and wish it were half as bold as Trump at getting shit done, while also thinking the shit Trump is getting done is bad.

Everyone is biting the bait and raging about how OP loves Trump when they never actually said that. Goddamn, fishies. Stop biting.

Except this is the same lazy pro-Trump troll as always, they have a fairly distinct way of writing.

And everyone is biting as usual.

This is why they keep posting.

tfw I thought DW skewed towards the older crowd and were aware of "don't feed the troll" -_-

All anons are same anon.

People on F!S are still in denial about the Dems alienating anyone who used to consider themselves Left. You (in general) comment here about being politically homeless and people react like you've brandished a weapon at their favorite relative. Every single thing Trump does scares them. That's why anyone says "he's getting a lot done" and the thread explodes.
