It's weird that you harp on this incessantly when in fact 77 million people did vote for Trump. I never said they couldn't be wrong, I've stated the fact that it happened. 81 million voted for Biden and they were wrong.

You don't have to try and pick fights in all your posts. You'd be much more appreciated for your factual posts if you didn't also feel the need to poke people constantly.

Im so thankful for Trump as our President.

I'm gonna be receiving a DOGE check and a Tariff check shortly and my OT is tax free.

As the President said, "We are truly in a Gokden Age"

MAGA!

It appears that a Polymarket account called "Magamyman" made $515,000 in a single day betting on last night's U.S. strike on Iran, with the first trade placed 71 minutes before the news broke publicly.

When this person bought in, the market had this at a 17% probability. They turned roughly $87,000 into over half a million dollars overnight.

Reminder that Donald Trump Jr. sits on Polymarket's advisory board and his firm invested double-digit millions into the platform last year. The DOJ and CFTC both had active investigations into Polymarket that were dropped after Trump took office.

Prediction markets cannot be a vehicle for profiting off advance knowledge of military action.

We need answers, transparency, and oversight.

" Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., the president's sons, are backing a new drone company that is vying to meet fresh demand from the Pentagon and fill a hole left by the administration's ban on new Chinese drones in the U.S."

This is a modification of a Matt Tabbi quote about Goldman Sachs. I think it may be the best analogy Matt ever crafted, and he has had come up with many brilliant ones:

The Trump Family is a great vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity, relentlessly jamming its blood funnel into anything that smells like money."

Please don't make me sick. It's been 10 years of Trump vomit.
The only resolution is you-know-what-happens.

Say, I think that will be the title of my thread. "You know what has happened!"

At least you can be rest assured the company the Trump boys are invested in will never secure the government drone contract, right?

Our town has an active and busy drone testing range that simulates a desert environment pretty well, so war is good for our local economy too. Still, I'd forego that for peace.

New drone maker partly owned by Trump sons hopes to win Pentagon contracts | Stars and Stripes https://www.stripes.com/theaters/us/2026-03-11/drone-maker-trump-pentagon-contracts-21031605.html

"There's no conflict there. Whatever they're doing, is what they're doing," said co-founder Brett Velicovich, referring to the Trump brothers. "Our focus at the company has nothing to do with politics."

Asked to comment about potential conflicts, the Trump Organization sent a statement from Eric Trump: "I am incredibly proud to invest in companies I believe in. Drones are clearly the wave of the future."


"Asked why Powerus picked a Trump company to merge with instead of the hundreds of others on Nasdaq with little or no operations, co-founder Velocovich said he was not a finance specialist and didn't know."

The real whopper - former Israeli PM Bennett said two days into the SMO - "Turkey is the new Iran".

Israel wants to dominate the region completely and wants to expand its borders into Lebanon and Syria as part of their Greater Israel project. The Turks want to maintain influence over Syria, don't want a fractured, chaotic country on their southern border and have already scuttled the Kurdish state project in northern Syria, which Israel supports.

But they don't seem to have the population or growth to support those acquisitions.

Very bad form, and highly unchristian, to pray wishing someone dead.

It must be fun to be POTUS and make a statement about extending a bombing deadline and the stock market goes up 1000 points. I'm sure no family members or inner circle were tipped off.

Suspicious Trading Behavior Seen In Markets 15 Minutes Before Trump Announcement

"Oil futures and S&P 500 futures saw an unusual burst of trading Monday morning, roughly 15 minutes before President Donald Trump claimed the U.S. and Iran are negotiating, and that as a result, he'd abandoned his threat to bomb Iranian power plants (a war crime) and other energy infrastructure.

CNBC flagged the burst of activity Monday afternoon, noting that whoever was behind the purchase "made a lot of money just minutes later."

After Trump's announcement on TruthSocial, S&P 500 futures jumped 2.5%, while futures in West Texas Intermediate, a crude oil, dropped nearly 6%.

Trump called into the station after his social media post Monday to tell MAGA-friendly anchor Joe Kernen he's "very intent on making a deal with Iran," despite reports in Iranian state media that there have been no direct or indirect talks between the two."

Trump is a lifetime schemer, trickster, fraudster.

I simply cannot believe people elected him.
And as astounding as that continues to be, it even more laughable how Wife claimed my rage/hate at/of Trump is WHY Trump won.

It's like, when Hillary called them Deplorables, they said, "oh yeah? We'll show you just how deplorable!"

What do you expect with record inflation, a senile POTUS, a WIDE OPEN BORDER, 10 - 20 million new illegal immigrants, the Covid scam, retail theft gone wild, Soros DAs letting career criminals walk, cities a nightmare, millions of illegal ballots, Frankenstein untested experimental drugs...

And this time around it's blatant.
Right in everyone's face.

Never mind that the SEC's ex-enforcement chief clashed with bosses over Trump cases before leaving.
Margaret Ryan resigned last Monday after only 6 months on the job.

I'm wondering why we aren't seeing the typical Twitter post from MAGA supporters claiming FRAUDULENT activity.
They seem to be pretty quiet about this kind of stuff.

Strange.
