@suzstephens@mcuban It's a double edged sword because Bezos fully supports destroying every small business in the United States. The "Tech Bros" now run the United States government and have intentions to destroy the US currency, convert to crypto, make the land unhabitable and they live on water.
@RichSpence10@ThatAlvaJohnson@tify330 They campaign also did not show up in places they thought people were going to vote. I didn't see one canvasser in Western New York and I know we are considered blue but after NY losing 5 Congressional Dem seats in 2022 you would think the someone would of had a plan.
@thisisnotreal22@JoshEakle The plan is to bully and hope it's successful. Tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada will gravely impact Americans, we will pay this 25% tax on goods. Research how many things in America come from Canada and Mexico. The entire purpose of the tarrif is to alienate the US.
At this point, I'm convinced this is just a scheme for them to enrich themselves at everyone's expense.
👉 Short.
👉 Announce tariffs.
👉 Remove tariffs.
🤑 Profit.
It's impossible to overstate just how devastating this schizophrenic economic policy is to the economy.
"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little."
—FDR, 1937
WATCH: @JonStewart exposes how big corporations use OUR tax dollars to subsidize THEIR workers.
Walmart, for example, makes BILLIONS in profits.
Yet, their employees are some of the BIGGEST recipients of government welfare programs.
Why?
🏆 LIVE FROM THE DEMOCRACY DOME: TEAM USA IS THROWING THE GAME 🇺🇸💥
Alright folks, let’s get something straight—we are in such a spectacular, multi-sport, cross-disciplinary disaster that no single sports analogy can contain it.
This isn’t just a botched Super Bowl, a rigged World Series, or a blown Finals. This is a full-blown Olympic-level catastrophe where every event ends in us tripping over our own feet, handing our rivals the gold, and acting shocked when they run off with it.
So sit tight, because we’re about to call this one using every playbook available.
🚨 PLAY #1: THROW THE BALL INTO OUR OWN GOAL—ALIENATE ALLIES
If you thought Team USA relied on teamwork, think again.
Trump just stiff-armed NATO, body-checked Canada, and shoved Mexico into the stands.
🏆 Defense agreements? Ripped up.
💰 Trade partnerships? Torched.
🛑 Global influence? Disappearing faster than a MAGA court filing.
The new game plan is apparently to push away our strongest allies while holding strategy meetings with Russia and China—aka, the teams that actually want to run the whole league.
It’s like deliberately fouling out your best players and inviting your opponents into the huddle. Smart move. 👏
🔥 PLAY #2: BENCH OUR OWN OFFENSE—DESTROY THE BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
You can’t win if you don’t play, and Trump is actively sidelining American industry.
His "tariff blitz" is making raw materials 20% more expensive for our own manufacturers, causing a massive stall in investment.
📉 Supply chains? Wrecked.
📉 Business confidence? Gone.
📉 Contracts? Who even knows—rules change overnight based on which company kissed the ring last.
It’s like changing the strike zone mid-inning based on who’s at bat.
Trump’s throwing fouls left and right, except the only team losing points is ours.
💀 PLAY #3: CUT THE MVP FROM THE TEAM—GUT SCIENCE & RESEARCH
The United States didn’t win the 20th century by waving flags—we won by being smarter, faster, and better at innovation than everyone else.
So naturally, Trump is gutting every single thing that made us dominant.
🧬 NIH funding? Frozen.
🚀 STEM research? Slashed.
🧠 International talent pipeline? Blocked.
Meanwhile, China, India, and the EU are sprinting downcourt, picking up the top talent we just ejected from the game.
If this keeps up, the next great American breakthrough won’t be American at all.
🏆 IF YOU’RE ASKING ME TO CALL THIS GAME EARLY...
It looks like Team USA is about to forfeit the 21st century.
We had the best playbook in the world—global influence, economic dominance, scientific leadership—and Trump has us throwing the championship match for the sake of some reality-TV-style ego moves.
The worst part?
Half the crowd is still waiting for the ref to step in.
Bad news, folks—the refs are already in the locker room counting their payouts.
Welcome to the new league, where the only rule is the owners—Trump, Musk, and the billionaire class—always win. 🎲💀
