Things are not looking great for the US these days.

[Crepitus]

As long as Trump keeps "trolling the libs" the MAGA moron cult doesn't give a shit if their bloated Messiah destroys our alliances and turns America into a pariah nation.

And that is absolutely a fact.

 

[Crepitus]

Inflation is 2.4%, the stock market is over 50K , interest rates are falling , the deficit is falling , mortgage rates are falling, wages are raising, the unemployment rate is falling, the GDP is rising, all of which are good. Thanks Donald Trump for turning the mess around that Biden and the Democrats left us in.

Actually no, inflation is 2.7, which is what it was last year or slightly worse.

Interest rates fall when the economy need stimulating, so that not a good sign.

the deficit is skyrocketing, no idea where you got the idea it's not. Even the die-hard tRumplings aren't trying to push that obvious lie.

GDP looks good because they changed the way it's calculated.

I guess you are going to refuse to spend the profits in your 401K from a 50K stock market.

Oh. about that stock market:

Thread 'The next time any Trump stooge says "Stock Market"'

Ask them to compare it to foreign markets in dollar terms. The rest of the world’s stock markets are crushing the US market since the start of 2025.

Dow was under 15% for the year

MSCI was just under 30%

Nekkei over 25%

Kospi a whopping 75%!

So compared to everyone else, especially Asian indexes, we sucked last year.

Meanwhile in the real world, the economy is absolutely roaring.

Not in this real world, maybe in whatever world you MAGAts live in I suppose.

 

[IBDaMann]

Another completely delusional response.

More bogus knee-jerk from a regurgitating partisan. Flee, flee, flee.

Again, lets just look at the top line, "all this money coming in". What money is coming in?

Bing! bing! bing! We have a winner for the stupidest question of the week!

Trump's tariffs have brought in a third of a $Trillion over the last year. That is FREE money - coming - in .

That's just Trump Making America Great Again, while you leftists keep trying to make America shittier and shittier.

Do you have any other stupid, America-hating, ignorance-fostered, TDS-predicated questions?

YOu cannot really be that stupid.

Americans, like me and (supposedly) you pay those tariffs. That's not money coming in. It's just more taxers.

Meanwhile in the real world, the economy is absolutely roaring. Trump just dropped 177000 private sector jobs while axing over 40000 useless government positions, the estimate was 70000, only 50,000 off again. Positive employment numbers every single month, even after slashing roughly 330000 bloated federal jobs. Most presidents juice their stats by sprinkling 20k or 50k fed hires whenever needed.

We're staring down a jaw-dropping 5.5% GDP growth in Q4, and it's only accelerating. Stock market just smashed through 50000, inflation's dropping again. I could pile on more, but the point's crystal clear. Even CNBC's been forced to choke out that every metric screams good news for America.

Europe? They're rapidly becoming a lot less 'Western Civilization.' Let's be real, the continent is the original libtard nursery. Complete morons have been running the show there for years. Open borders, sky-high taxes, energy suicide, pick your poison. They're floundering and will keep floundering until they hit bottom and learn to live without suckling off the American teat. Obviously, they need to completely abandon their Marxist dreams as well.

Remember, these same JPP dumbasses were screeching that we'd plunge straight into depression within Trump's first month. Post-April 1st they promised negative growth resulting in a recession at the very least, but likely a full-on depression. There would most definitely be runaway inflation, and everyone's 401k was gone for good too. That's just a sampler of the doom porn that came from the JPP hive as they parroted the garbage the 'always wrong' libtard 'experts' were peddling. It's been pure entertainment watching them 'update' their predictions.

Delusional? Brain-dead? Desperate? All three? Doesn't matter, I just know it'll never stop being hilarious.

Quick reality-based prediction, these monster growth numbers aren't slowing down, they're about to get obliterated. The next three years are going straight into the record books, the good ones, not the Biden-era dumpster fire editions.

I have another question for you and that is just how do we know FOR SURE and I mean FOR SURE that Trump didn't Give or sell the 12 Russians he had at the W H , and the Chinese's he had at Mar. some of our secrets?
Trump for some reason did NOT have or want another American at these meetings.
WHY?
YES HE was the only one there
Did he know he was going to give/ sell them some of our secrets ?
Heck we know he flashed a bunch of them around at MAR and even let the Chinese he had there see them.
SO again how do we know FOR SURE he didn't?

Year GDP (Trillions USD)

With Sybil, I think it's more about being cray-cray than stupid. He lives in a different reality.

 

[IBDaMann]

You, on the other hand, can.

Americans, like me

Nope. Americans do not like you. Americans don't want to see their country become shitty. Americans want America to be great again.

and (supposedly) you pay those tariffs.

No one ever accused you of having any understanding of economics. Let me know if you'd ever like to learn.

That's not money coming in. It's just more taxers.

Seriously, let me know.

 

[T. A. Gardner]

Say anything questionable about Trump...and TA is here to shore up Trump's defense.

TA...the perfect Trump ass-kisser. One almost has to wonder if TA is paving a road to replace Hegseth when that idiot gets canned as Secretary of "War."

Not true. You've been saying idiotic stuff about Trump. Also, no way I want Keg's Breath's job.

 

[QP!]

This is why Putin got trump elected in the first place.

Yup.

Many stated during Trump's first term that many of the positions he pushed sounded like Putins wet dream wish list. but in his first term Trump was thwarted by McConnell, Bill Barr and many other in his admin from actually enacting a lot in that wish list.

- weakening Nato
- distance America from Europe and other allies
- enable a oligarch regime, enriching key individuals but diminishing America
- do nothing while Russia continues the war of attrition in Ukraine

Check, check, check, check, in this second term and Putin feels he has got full value for his investments.

Such as what, Terry? That he's a pedophile? A crook? He takes bribes? He's a draft-dodging adulterer and an oath-breaker? What negative things about Trump do you agree with and what do you consider "idiotic stuff"?

Time until Terry blames Leftists, Biden or anyone but Trump himself: 10...9...8....

AI Overview



The U.S. economy is currently outperforming other major developed nations, boasting the world's largest GDP (over trillion) and higher growth rates compared to the Eurozone, UK, and Japan as of late 2025. Strong labor markets, productivity, and tech sector dominance drive this growth, though it faces challenges like high debt-to-GDP ratios, potential "K-shaped" uneven growth, and policy-induced labor shortages.
Key Comparisons to Other Countries:

• Growth Performance: The U.S. has experienced faster economic expansion, with annualized growth significantly surpassing the Eurozone and Japan in 2025. The U.S. has effectively "powered ahead" of Europe in the post-pandemic recovery.

Sure, Ms. Fat Lame, my stock porfolio is going well, but the majority of Americans don't have one. They're suffering under stagnating wages and higher grocery prices.

Graphic: How grocery prices have changed since Trump took office

NBC News is tracking changes in the prices of eggs, bread, ground beef, chicken and other grocery items to monitor the impact on consumers’ food bills.

www.nbcnews.com

Grocery prices have been on the rise for most of the past six years, as supply chain bottlenecks, the war in Ukraine and excessive profit-taking here in America have put a strain on consumers’ wallets.

The Secretary General of NATO disagrees with your opinion. I trust his opinion more than yours.

How much does your meth habit cost you. Have you got your teeth fixed yet?

Nothing, Ms. Fat Lame. Unlike you, I'm not a liar nor an addict...especially one that deals drugs and pseudo-medicine to minors.

Are you claiming to be a fake dentist now too, ma'am? Thanks for your interest, but my teeth are fine.
