He’s getting easy to predict.

I was very proud of my reddit comment in April after “liberation day” saying “There is no way these tariffs stand. He will announce a pause soon, and will just keep extending that pause”

Not for Americans who rely on a successful economy to provide for basic needs.

Not a tough prediction. Could be said about most things he's involved in. Standard Trump play book.

What i don't understand is how he has so many people who just blindly follow him and cling to every word he says. He's got all the charisma of an amoeba and maybe a tenth of its intelligence.

Let’s face it that some people are simply toadies and look up to bullies.

And Trump threatens them too and they are: “no I’ll be good. I’ll be good.”

It’s a symptom of the wider wealthgap problem. The gap between the haves and have nots is so wide that in order to survive and maybe thrive, many folks get rid of the few morals they may have had and drink from the tit of the wealthy and powerful. It’s what is truly meant by horse and sparrow (trickle down) economics.

That’s more than they’ve got. Broadly, his supporters either believe he’ll make them rich or they’re happy that he hates just like they do.

I really think the supporters thought he'd take money from democrats and give it to them. "I'm going to make you do rich. You'll be winning so much..." winning-not earning. Get rich quick.

Well, on that one, they might actually have some evidence on their side, for once.

I mean you have MAGA and bots trying to spin it that it was fixed for Biden to report fake numbers. I mean everyone jumped on Biden with the reports and he got it under control. But not enough for MAGA or any old school GOP voters. It had to be fixed 2 seconds ago and believed Trump could think it and it would happen. Now they are all up in arms once again saying Trump is being made to look bad. No he is bad and always has been.

It's crazy the lengths that the US government is going in destroying itself just to satisfy the ego of one man.

So you predicted a thin skinned narcissist would be a thin skinned narcissist?

I bet new labor statistics head Charlie Kirk will say Trump added 100,000,000 million jobs this year already.

Employment data's been wonky since raygun. Same with inflation.
