Do you think if he kneels down and kisses trump feet he would be okay? I’m so worried damn…
He’s a business man who’s been bankrupt 6 times lmaoooo, gullible clowns
The bankruptcy claim comes up a lot. I hate Trump as much as anyone who can form opinions that don’t come from a radio talk show, but I’d be willing to he’s the bankruptcies were by design. He probably did what the toys r us CEO and 50 cent did, where they funnel money out of a company, and the company goes under.
That being said. He’s still a fucking piece of shit who’s making the founding fathers roll in their graves
It’s the generous interpretation where Trump abused the bankruptcy system for his own benefit, and I definitely agree.
Still wouldn’t want a country run that way, the people are the consumers about to be conned or the investors about to be fleeced.
I saw the “and there’s no filing for bankruptcy on this one” at the end and all I could think is that even if you thought running a country like a business was a good idea (it’s not) why would you pick a businessman who’s filed for bankruptcy quite a lot to be the one to do so? I feel like he needs to ask himself that.
“we need someone to run the government like a business” “lets pick this guy with 40 bankruptcies” my guy even if the premise wasn’t idiotic what did you think would happen
Conservatives are for the most part still deluded into thinking that his goal is to “balance the trade deficit.”
It’s horseshit. That’s not his goal, it’s his pretense; the idiot reason he gives his idiot followers so that they don’t see him for the Russian asset he is.
Believing that others in their tribe (who they THINK are in their tribe) are being truthful is probably the most ubiquitous flaw conservatives have.
“He’s a businessman”.
No, he’s a nepo baby hustler who thinks winning is the only thing that matters, and winning is when you rip off and take advantage of people.
No he’s a businessman just not a good one and by good I simply mean minimally competent, I won’t get into the morality although… Woof.
minimally competent
I think bankrupting a casino disqualifies him from even that.
I guess the house doesn’t always win.
Seriously the only way I can invision him doing that without illegal activities is that he pissed off all the proper contractors in the support industries and had to special order everything.
I could see something like that happening to Donald “I like to brag about not paying contractors” Trump.
Sounds like a business guy to me
I saw a calculation once that found he’d be more wealthy now if he literally just shoved all of his money into stocks when he turned 18. Truly evidence of an incredibly smart business man
This person is rich enough to own stocks. It’s good that they’re feeling some negative effects of what they voted for, but calling a 15 % dip in their portfolio “suffering” is kind of devaluing the actual human suffering that Trump’s policies are causing.
Yea but they’re never going to find that empathy so at least there’s this
Anyone who must be employed to survive is one of us, I’d say. Even “millionaires” understand that pressure. Still, it probably doesn’t matter if they have any realizations because they’ve all served their purpose to him.
Millionaire is a pretty low bar these days, a salary worker reaching retirement age probably has a million dollar net worth.
A million dollar net worth is barely enough to be comfortable in retirement in the U.S. You can pull $2500/mo from your investments, don’t forget about health care and the cost of dying. You’re also one medical claim denial away from bankruptcy.
As if conservatives place an iota of value on any human life apart from their own.
A business man who has failed to sell: Booze, football, and steaks…TO AMERICANS.
Can’t forget gambling.
I don’t even know how that’s possible, casinos are barely legal money printing machines. People drive hours to the middle of buttfuck, nowhere in many states just to gamble, and his were in major cities for Christsake, lol.
It is very unsettling to see him in financial control of all of us again, after crashing the economy once already.
I don’t even know how that’s possible, casinos are barely legal money printing machines.
Because it was a money laundering scam.
He skimmed too much off the top, since he kept billing his expenses to the casino, and then they collapsed.
My understanding is he tried to expand his operation too quickly into a second casino very near the first one ended up with both casinos competing with each other
True. LOL.
Which is because he tried to put his name on all of it and charge a premium. No actual added value. Just his name. Turns out that’s not a winning strategy.
wasn’t until he figured he needed a cult following, first
deleted by creator
he is a business man
No he isn’t. Everything she’s ever touched turned to utter shit and went bankrupt. He bankrupted a casino. Like, how even do you do that? That’s not incompetence, that requires a very specific skill set to do
Not just one. He managed to bankrupt 3 or 4 casinos on the Jersey Shore in Atlantic City in the late 80s and early 90s.
That’s like burning down a mint 4 times.
He’s not, he’s a deranged rich kid who got old.
You very well and most likely all of us are missing the Y as to why Donald Trump has done the things he’s done and managed to always fall upwards.
I say that because if he’s so bad, he wouldn’t be continuously hired upwards. He’s now the most powerful position in the world so keep it in mind. He didn’t get there because every large business and its founders and CEOs are so much more dumber than the rest of us that they didn’t know what they were doing.
Some CEOs are hired as a hatchet CEO to destroy companies on purpose. To dismantle them from the inside. You guys need to start thinking that all of this is on purpose and is malicious and that they’re smarter than you. The art of war: do not underestimate your enemy.
This is a prime example of survivorship bias. It’s the equivalent of an idiot winning the lottery, continuing to buy tickets, winning the lottery again, and having people say “look how much money he has, he must be some financial genius!”
Not underestimating either cheeto nor Elmo by stating the simple truth that both are fucking idiots born into wealth, and -amongst other things- being extremely lucky
I’ve been yelling for nearly a decade now that Elmo is an incompetent but also evil motherfucker, glad that people are catching on.
Just watch interviews with either from decade(s) ago, just hear them stumble about anything that has to do with what they do, they don’t know or understand shit. Elmo calls himself the world’s best engineer yet he doesn’t have a clue what an engineer even does
is that not what a businessman does?
No
Things that make about as much sense as “Conservative Environmentalist”:
- Anarcho Bidenism
- People that enjoy fruitcake
- Jumbo shrimp
- For Profit Social Services
- Anarcho Capitalism
- People referring to a lion being the ‘king of the jungle’ without realising lions don’t live in jungles.
Fruitcake is actually really nice, provided you make it yourself. Those bricks they sell in stores are nothing like the real thing. I think the store sold stuff is intended as replacements for structural support walls.
If you toast it with peanut butter its almost edible.
Notice how even when potentially becoming self aware they still say it’s having a negative effect on “conservative Canadians” as if they’re the only demographic that would be pissed about a hostile foreign power threatening to take their sovereignty.
The “In-group” is the only one that matters.
Maybe, just fucking maybe, the government isnt a business and you should stop thinking the proven vampires of the world will somehow be good for us cattle.
“Filing for bankruptcy” was his entire strategy as a business man, though.
And countries can totally do the same. Argentina was bankrupt at least twice, Venezuela has defaulted on bonds, Greece was restructured. And I’m pretty sure there are others.
Bye, bye reserve currency status and all the cheap loans, inflation reduction and broader economic influence that comes with it …
You couldn’t think that that was gonna last forever. I mean, it was very obvious. We were headed straight towards the collapse regardless. Cheap loans reserve currency inflation reduction literally all of that is just making climate change worse so this was all gonna end regardless.
I don’t think anyone should care about any of that stuff that was making it worse for all of us anyways. We need to start thinking in a way of how do we grab back power and then build this world up in our vision.
Because we’re not going back to the before time that’s not happening.
If it happens fast (because the US defaults on its external debt) rather than slowly (the slow decay from the post “Imperial” era), the damage will be very different because it will be a sudden shock rather than something slow enough that people and companies can adapt to it.
It’s the difference between, sudden hyper-inflation within a few months and having a few decades of higher inflation than its trade partners (which is actually what has been happenning so far) or a sudden forced significant cut on just about all kinds of public expenses (because nobody will be lending money to the US and printing money will generate way more inflation when a significant proportion of new dollars aren’t going abroad anymore, which links to the whole hyperinflation thing) and decades of fiscal contraction (again, what’s been happenning so far).
If you think people are dissatisfied because average salary growth isn’t keeping up with 7 or 8% inflation, imagine when it’s 30 or 40% inflation.
Not a business man, a con artist.
And when he does run an actual business, he tends to go bankrupt, and rarely profits more than a broad market index fund would.
In other words, he’s objectively bad at business. He would be poor if he hadn’t been born rich.
Watch out, he’s starting to get ticked off! You don’t understand, his investments are dipping!
Don’t you understand, an actual person (him) is experiencing consequences! He’s said all the right words and hated the correct kind of human, this should not be happening to him!
The real test is whether he’s gonna become a leftist or not. Reminder, Right-Wingers are solipsistic & only care when they’re personally affected.
Not gonna happen… he is still doing mental gymnastics to justify Dear Leader’s decisions “I know his goal is to even our trade deficit…”
Trump could dump gasoline on a burning house and they would say, “he was just trying to put out the fire, gasoline is a liquid like water after all”
Then he got what was coming
Musks head already looks like an archaic human fucked the cadaver of King Charles of Spain he doesn’t need to be exaggerated like this.
Doesn’t look exaggerated to me. Spitting image, the likeness is uncanny. Really captures that deep-down fascist soul.
The image isn’t exaggerated, it’s just depicting Musk as he was before he started on his billionaire plastic surgery journey.
