Finally fighting…

Well…finally, the dems have chosen SS, Medicare, and Medicaid as the hill they are going to die on in the next year until the mid terms in 26…something that I’ve said over and over that should be their number one priority…and even 60% of repubs want no cuts to those programs along with over 90% of dems wanting them protected…or expanded even…and Elizabeth Warren fired the first shot the other day by doing an op ed on fox news to inform people who only watch that lump of trash what the repubs have planned…and what our side is going to do to protect the 70 million seniors who depend on SS…and there is going to be a huge media blitz spotlighting the broken promises to protect SS that the repubs lied about during the last election…and they are going to bring a lot of attention to the huge cuts in the repub budget that targets all three programs just to give more tax cuts to the rich…so finally, we are going to take the fight to the repubs who are ruining this country…and we need to be like street fighters…no more collegiality or “working across the aisle”…that doesn’t work with maga repubs anyway…geez…

Bye, bye Boeing…

Well…another American victim of the idiot trump’s trade war with China is going to be Boeing and it really could drive them into bankruptcy….with the additional tariffs that idiot boy slapped on China, the Chinese government has blocked all companies from accepting any Boeing planes and with the 130+ planes on order, this will cost Boeing around 13 billion dollars in sales…and with the losses they’ve had over the past few years of almost 12 billion dollars, they have a very small window to save the company…while I feel for the workers at Boeing, I really do hope there are consequences for the CEO there who is a huge trump supporter and who, with the rest of the maga asshole voters, saddled us with the ignorant asshole who is wrecking our economy….and the repubs are good on the economy? Yeah, right…geez…

This is what stupidity looks like…

Well…we all know the contempt that the idiot trump has for science but now he’s mixing that with stupidity and as he does with everything else…his idiot have recommended cancelling the next great space telescope the “Nancy Grace Roman” that cost nearly 3.5 billion dollars and it only testing and launching away from going online…so that means they will just give up on it even when 99% of the money on it has already been spent…this is what stupidity looks like, folks…tax cuts for the rich and nothing for any programs that have already been paid for…and in the same budget they propose to cut the budget of NASA’s scientific section by over 50% so there won’t be anyone there to work the current telescopes in space…so say goodbye to Hubble and the JWST just to name a couple…god I hate these ignorant assholes…geez…

The carnage is beginning…

Well…yow, the Philly fed just came out future forecast for economic activity and the carnage to the economy is beginning…it’s survey of future orders fell from an 8.7 positive to a 34.2 negative telling everyone that there is a recession coming and businesses are preparing for it by emptying their inventories and not buying new materials…and this is as low as the depths of the pandemic when the economy just about shut down…so these moron tariffs are going to gut the economy and we can see unemployment of over 10% by the end of summer…thanks you maga assholes…geez…

It gets worse…

Well…new economic forecasts are coming out and they keep getting worse and worse as they drop….now some of them are looking at unemployment going up to over 6%, inflation will start roaring in the 2nd quarter, and real growth has already gone negative since around the start of March…and these are the supposed “economic geniuses” that the maga idiots saddled us with who have no clue how the government or economy works so don’t expect them to be able to stop the crash that is coming…I’m glad I bought my new car now because I wouldn’t be able to afford one later in the year when the full effects of the tariffs kick in…and because all Miatas are made in Hiroshima, Japan and, as the tariffs raise the prices of new ones, the prices of used ones will go up with them…I am going to harp on this coming economic crash until the dems stand up tot he idiot trump and stop his criminal actions that is destroying this country…geez…

Trade is gone and it’s not coming back…

Well…after the months of lies by the idiot trump that hundreds of companies are building factories here because of his stupid tariffs, there is still not one that is even planning to do anything here…they really do hate uncertainty and with idiot boy in charge, that’s all they’ll get…so now, another handful of economists have come out to say that their projections are that the US will not have any growth this year after idiot boy inherited an economy that was humming along at a 3% growth rate…and my dire warnings that the rest of the world is going to go on without the US because of the tariffs and the idiot’s belligerence to the rest of the world are coming true…and Morgan Stanley just projected that these tariffs are going to cost millions of jobs and once the rest of the world re-aligns without us, those jobs are not coming back…and the same thing is happening in the vital area of diplomacy that trump has just thrown away and we have far less influence than we have ever had…and it’s all because the repubs won’t do anything to reign in the idiot…the rest of the world has already stopped taking calls from the US and presto, they found out that they don’t need a US run by incompetents…good job maga…geez..

90 billion down the drain…

Well…with the idiot trumps goons arresting people who are here in the US legally say for tourism as one Canadian woman found out (she was locked up in prison for three weeks)…no one should travel to the US for any reason…and the rest of the world is following Canada by putting travel warnings out about that travel…Canadian bookings for travel here are down by 70%…travel from the EU is down almost 30% and if this keeps up businesses in the US stand to lose over 90 billion dollars…how many people are going to lose their jobs just because idiot boy is a petulant asshole? Oh, and liar…just yesterday the idiot was bleating that Honda is in talks to move manufacturing to the US from Mexico and Canada…the only problem with that is that Honda has no clue what the hell he’s talking about and there are no talks and no plans to move anything to the US since they already have unused capacity in the US…and with the reciprocal tariffs that other countries have put on US made goods, there is no business sense trying to export from the US…what a frickin idiot…geez…

China cuts us off…

Well…I’d like to see what the idiot’s response is going to be to China cutting the US off from the rare earth elements that are used in just about everything…and here’s the thing, China spent the last 4 years studying and preparing for the tariffs the idiot boy has imposed and now they have struck back with a blow that can cripple our economy…and what about the repub “leadership”…they are just perfectly fine with ceding world leadership just to keep idiot boy from being mean to them….so as the idiot stumbles around, he has started to lower some tariffs quietly to try to get China to negotiate and they have told him to go to hell…by these stupid tariffs, idiot boy has strengthened China, and the EU and made the US just another country who has lost it’s power to influence the world…and it’s trump’s fault…geez…

It’s always the repubs…

Well…I really don’t get why the public thinks repubs are better on the economy than the dems when, for the past century +, every damn recession happened when the repubs were in control…and the deficit always explodes under these incompetents and the deficit is exploding under the idiot trump all the way to 1.8 trillion dollars and counting…so tell me again why this is? Yeah, we all know why…the media is now run by billionaire oligarchs who will not let the truth be printed anymore, going so far as ordering their staffs to only report right wing talking points even though they are all lies…so, again, I’ll keep going on about the media until we take back congress and pass laws that reverses the consolidation that has left all media in the hands of right wing billionaires…geez…

These people are just stupid…

Well…hey, let’s do another round of “these people are just stupid”…The Atlantic did an article on people who voted for the idiot trump and believed all of the lies…and I find this to be damn funny…they told the story of a farmer in upstate NY who ordered feed for his cattle from his normal supplier in Canada who had an extra 2,200 dollars tacked on the bill due to trump’s stupid tariffs…and they quoted this farmer saying “I thought other countries would be paying the tariffs” and this is one of the big lies he bought in to and one that idiot boy repeated at every damn campaign stop…so now this guy just had his taxes raised by 2,200 dollars and multiply that by the fact he needs feed every other month so that will add on 13,200 dollars to his costs just because he voted for the liar trump…and now he goes on to whine that this will probably put him put of business and I really hope it does and he loses everything…stupidity shouldn’t be rewarded…geez…
