It really is like crypto scams. Just make them believe that its all okay and they will be rich. Meanwhile he extracts as much as possible while the scam is still going and in the end there will be one big rugpull.

...4 years later
"Evil Joan Bidens economy was so bad that even four years later it's still turning the UNIVERSE into such a covfefe that it is down to me to save us. So I'm declaring 'marshall lore' and will stay as president until I'm dead...then Eric will become prez 👍👍. Make Ameri great something something"

I think there was a star system in Stellaris the developers called covfefe and I love it

[-] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago

Hope it had a dim orange dwarf, some gas giants and two little rocks swinging around the central body.

marshall lore

Second actual lol of the day, thank you.

[-] D_C@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

It was that or martial lord. A cheeky nod to tRUMPs fake christianity and holy wars. However I thought he'd not have the mental capacity to string that together.

[-] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Eric? Come on now, he'd obviously tap his other kid (no, not Ivanka, didn't mean "tap" in that sense) for the role so it's still his name in the news.

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 50 points 2 months ago

unfortunately every single wrong/false/bullshit lie that spews from his face anus like diarrhea from a firehose is basically the literal word of god gospel to the hordes of brainless moronic maga sheep, no matter how many laughably blatant contradictions you point out

we have always been at war with eurasia

[-] xzot746@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago

You're hitting the nail right on the head. You're not the type that the Republicans like, they like their people not as educated, I believe the Cheeto said that once or twice before.

[-] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 37 points 2 months ago

I'm starting to think the tariffs are just another one of his grifter scams. He was going to offer foreign governments a deal "send me a million bucks and I'll make sure your country doesn't have to pay the extra tariffs". China threw a wrench into it all by not even feigning interest in dealing with him.

[-] lagoon8622@sh.itjust.works 19 points 2 months ago

He has always been obsessed with tariffs, even when he had no political aspirations. At no point in time has he ever had a correct comprehension of how they actually work

[-] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I was driving into work a couple weeks ago and NPR was playing a clip of him calling into a radio show and complaining about trade imbalances and the need for tariffs. That clip was taken from 1989...

[-] reptar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I think it's much more likely a way to gatekeep a vast portion of the economy. Tariff exemptions for sale

No, it’s clearly Biden’s fault…. again. Boy, the week he’s been having.

[-] falynns@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago

It's a great time to remove people who refuse to see the emperor has no clothes from your life.

[-] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 24 points 2 months ago

When the Market’s Up: Mine. When It’s Down: Yours.

Reminds me of the "pep talk" we got from our bosses recently. You know what they really mean when they say "we need to pull together as a team" and why they never say it when there's extra money.

[-] smokinliver@sopuli.xyz 19 points 2 months ago

I also like how his tone shifted from a cocky all-caps to a slithering normal-caps

[-] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 6 points 2 months ago

Well, the first one is Drumpf itself pissing its pants with joy and boasting. The second is Drumpf handing its phone to an aide, saying sth like: "you need to explain to them that this is not my fault, I'm still the best!"

[-] spooky2092@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Oh yeah this has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ECONOMIC LODE* STONE TRUMP PUT AROUND THE COUNTRY'S NECK. Just a coincidence that the stock market and economy are tanking after implementing tariffs, damn Biden fucking with the economy!!

[-] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

*lode stone or mill stone.

[-] lagoon8622@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

A lode stone is a guide (naturally occurring form of magnetite, in use a very small stone). A mill stone is what you'd attach to the economy to drown it

[-] spooky2092@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 months ago

Fixed, damned autocorrect

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I really wish truth mattered. It takes so little effort to look at a graph of the stock market and see the exact date of a severe crash. It's just now recovering to close to previous levels and that coincides with the dumb fuck backing off the tariffs.

[-] lost_faith@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 months ago

How am I supposed to draw a line from A ---- B when my attention span is - and I am TOLD how good things are?

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Fair point! The dear leader prevails.

[-] Enkers@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 months ago

he left us with bad numbers

Helly R from Severance saying "They were scary. The numbers were scary."

[-] kahdbrixk@feddit.org 8 points 2 months ago

Nothing means anything anymore, you can just write and say whatever you want and half of the population will believe what you say, the other half will cry out about fake news.

When will the aliens finally attack earth to bring us destruction and unity?

[-] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I think they're too busy watching our media streams for entertainment. Or they haven't realized they switched from fiction to fact some time ago.

[-] Gerudo@lemm.ee 6 points 2 months ago

I thought tariffs were already pouring in? It's almost as if this guy is lying.

[-] DandomRude@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Yes, that's right, his absurd tariffs will really hit home soon - but certainly not in the way he imagines. The US citizens will have to pay the price.

[-] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Nah, hes already making exceptions left and right while reaching out to China to start talks.

Stores have a 7 week lag from basically now before they run out of goods. He will have folded in every meaningful way by then. There will be a lot of tough talk and basically very little accomplished.

[-] Kennystillalive@feddit.org 5 points 2 months ago

The comming recession wil be the Biden-cession.

[-] wheelie@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Watching him cause such a mess makes me happy.

[-] 96VXb9ktTjFnRi@feddit.nl 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I just learned the term 'ReTruths'. It's such doublespeak

[-] Micans@reddthat.com 3 points 2 months ago

Do you have a source for the first one on Jan 29? I can't find the first tweet on Twitter or MAGA Twitter, and I had to scroll a lot to make it that far back.

We can't be playing the fake game like they do. He has enough shit spewing out of his face sphincter to post real hypocrisy

[-] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 2 months ago

Save this, and post to every Trumper you meet!

[-] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Bold of you to assume Trumpers can read.

[-] LordOfLocksley@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

The boom will come... unfortunately it won't be a growth explosion, rather an implosion
