Donald Trump

Trump has turned into the grumpy old man saying “Eh, what’s that you’re sayin’? Are you talking about me?” when the ENTIRE WORLD, ex. MAGA Morons, knows he will be a disaster for the USA and them!

You’ll notice the KIND of people supporting Trump…generally either rich and educated and, more importantly, INSULATED from the devastation he will bring OR poor and uneducated, who think that SAYING you’ll do something and trying to sound tough while saying it, plus bedding porn stars and anchor baby nude models (who overstay their visas) they wish they could bed, is the epitome of the “all-American guy!”

Meanwhile, in middle America, where the work is done and the taxes are paid, people are crying out for a scintilla of NORMALCY…normal tax policy, not going bankrupt because you’re sick, not having to decide between food or medicine, not being unable to move because you’ll lose your healthcare, not being able to afford what you once could!

For 4 years, Trump rained down terror and lies on a population that was knocked back by COVID and the shutdown of the global economy. So far, Biden and Harris have spent 3.5 years growing the USA back into the best economy in the world, where interest rates are falling, inflation has been tamed, and the American financial system has moved back to the historical norms of yesterday.

Sadly, the population is SO uneducated, they don’t even want to hear that we spent about 12 years in a Zero Interest Rate world where money was cheap BECAUSE WE WERE BUILDING THE ECONOMY BACK FROM THE 2009 BRINK OF DEPRESSION.

COVID obviously provided a hiccup to that and led to a supply & demand imbalance from which we are only now, two years later, beginning to recover from.

Just today, Fed Chair Powell said they’re ready to reduce rates, and the Sept Jobs report will determine whether it’s a simple .25% or a more aggressive .50% due to the jobs report being worst than expected.

By the time the next President takes office, interest rates will be AT LEAST 1.0% lower, which means every day costs like mortgages, credit card bills and car loans will ALL be cheaper.

If Harris is elected President, it will be because of the hard work of the Administration. If Trump is elected, he will IMMEDIATELY claim it is because he was elected, even though much of the problem was attributable to the $5 TRILLION IN ADDL DEBT HE AMASSED IN 4 YEARS! Just his corporate and rich guy tax cut alone was $2T…and he is now talking about a $5T cut on top of that!!!

But, as I said earlier, the people who feel financially sound don’t give a fuck! They just want to keep as much as possible and don’t give a fuck about the economic distress of others, the decay of public raids, schools, homes, etc…

ME. ME, ME, not WE, WE, WE!

What we over here would think to be just a very reasoned, sensible argument showing empathy for your neighbour and society......but over there you Sir are obviously a communist and a danger to the greatest country on earth.
But...well said.
 
Very rude’: the late Queen’s salty verdict on Donald Trump

A new biography of Elizabeth II claims she was less than impressed with the former president after he paid her a visit.

I think her coup de grace was wearing the brooch that Obama gave her, when the idiot visited her

I'm confused (nothing new there). I see Robert F Kennedy has suspended his campaign, and has backed Tango man. His family are less than impressed. Hardly surprising, really. Weren't the Kennedy clan bastions of the Democratic party?


 
There are tens of thousands of these guys in the far suburbs/exurbs around Chicago. The semi-rural areas to the North, between Chicago and Milwaukee and slightly to the west are generally poor, rust belt towns that rarely have any new construction and lots of older homes in general disrepair.

These guys either have their own small (often manual labor) businesses (Republican) who want lower taxes because even though they don’t recognize the tax breaks THEY get, and feel like their tax dollars are wasted on urban minorities and their problems (Republican) and they’re almost exclusively uneducated, white makes with a macho view of life (Republican), who think their kind of love of America (white make domination of women & minorities) makes them the “real” American patriots (Republicans). They like their leaders to be white, male and to look and sound strong (Republican).

There was NEVER A CHANCE they were going to find almost any guy who looks like them, in that area, who was anything but a Republican who looks like he’s a split second from ‘roid rage at any given moment!

In fact, you’ll notice it took them finding a softly spoken older lady somewhere on the street to get anything like a reasonable take on life (Democrat!).

Thankfully, we are building our retirement lake home out in NW Illinois, well beyond this old, often dying, olde tyme type of town in the rural hinterlands. Yes, there are still plenty of Republicans out there, but they are much fewer and farther in between! ;-) And, much less aggressively macho (because many of them are secure in their manhood because they’re life long farmers tending hundreds of acres of crops for a living and don’t put up with bullshit!), who use please, thank you and wish you a good day when they meet you! In short, good, strong, ACTUAL REAL Americans!

For the record, here’s the Illinois Electoral Map from 2020.

Trump in RED (41%)
Biden in BLUE (58%)

The area of the video is in Yellow.

It shows you how RURAL, and thus low density population areas, there are in ALL the Midwestern/Middle American states, so don’t be fooled by the red vs blue MAPS, because they say NOTHING about how many people voted how!!!
Farmers are the salt of the Earth.
 
No. Mathematics is singular. It describes a thing—a field of study—not many things. The S on the end doesn't indicate plurality.

Mathematics is a mass noun and usually takes a singular verb. You don't say mathematics 'are' my favorite subject.. You say "mathematics IS my favorite subject."
So when you shorten the noun, it's redundant to add the 's'.

That said, it's a preference thing. Americans and Canadians have the common sense to not add the 's' at the end since the whole point is to abbreviate... The English on the other hand do add it.. But it's just a preference. It's neither logical nor more correct.
Mathematics covers algebra, geometry, arithmetic, calculus and other fields.

Therefore, it’s not just one field of study.

RFK's brain worm now controls him.
 
This is a good discussion, but I really think you’re over-analyzing. The whole Trump/ MAGA thing is tantamount to new religion being born right in front of our eyes. How is it really any different to Joseph Smith? Some scurrilous bloke, steeped in self-interest, but who has some ability to sell himself, comes out with a ‘vision’ and idiots flock to him.
Just like any religion, it’s full of mad contradictions and things made up on the spot to benefit their temporary needs. There’s no point looking for any internal cohesiveness and consistency.
Cults always attribute god like qualities to their leaders. America is on the knifeedge of returning to the 17th century.
