“I can just see the fake headlines,” Trump said. “President Trump is talking about all the money they’re making while people are suffering at the pump.”
“But I said, ‘I don’t give a damn, I’m gonna say it: We’re making a frickin fortune,’” he added.
We? What we would that be? Not me. Never me.
The kleptocrats are the only ones making a fortune. Americans are all broke.
When he says we he means him.
And still in most states, the elections are “neck and neck.”
Thanks, media. You got your exciting and profitable horse race election. We got fascism.
You are not included in the “we” that’s “making a fortune”, trump voters. You are the we who are paying for trump to rob you, still lose money in the end and call it profit.
The already wealthy are getting richer but not the majority from this. This same pattern happens with the right-wing politics all over and in history, it’s not new, yet the rubes keep choosing it and are worse off each time for it. Keep hurting yourselves.
“You’re fuel for my fire” - These unabashed fascists fucks.
He has DOUBLED the national debt, but he thinks we’re making a fortune. He’s like the guy who thinks he’s rich because he can buy anything he wants with a credit card.
Tax and spend Republicans.
He doesn’t mean we the people he means him and his family.
He’s is enriching his tribe. Not the people. This is what amerika voted for
The US is making such a fortune that its national debt is larger than it has ever been. But Trump only cares for Trump.
National debt growing at record rates, 99% of the population is having a harder time affording stuff, but that 1% is making bank. Especially the ones not afraid to jump into the new “morality” where bribes are ok
“Paging Dr Guillotin, code crimson on ward 1”
By “US” he means himself of course. L’État c’est moi. He does not have a concept of the US as a state or cares about anything of that kind. Mobsters only care about their own financial interests.
let’s have fun reading about the Rhode Island Banking Crisis caused by, you guessed it, a mobster in control of people’s money and fraudulent “insurers” securing the funds.
edit:
these guys also came to prominence in the 80s, citing Trump’s deals in NY as a framework for how to use political connections to make money flow from out of the public pockets and into private accounts.
“The fake headlines that say I said the thing that I’m saying in literally this exact same breath.”
This isn’t even the first time he’s said something like this…
Yes, you and your buddies are making a fortune from other peoples’ suffering. We know, no need to rub it into anyones faces.
Trump says he doesn’t ‘give a damn’
about gas prices as US making ‘fortune’Fixed the title.
Extorting a fortune from the working class. I can’t wait until an angry mob gives him the Mussolini finale
Here I wish they would sentence every member in Florida and U.S. congress to prison who read the report on Matt Gaetz traffickimg and raping a minor to prison for 20 years no parole. Every one of them is an accessory to raping a child at this point. If any of them voted to support the death penalty those ones should get it.
All of their families should be ashamed of their names for generations.
(Oh and for the record, it was read in U.S. congress, so all of them live in the district of the death penalty, they are the ones who didn’t vote it out… They should hope they had the chance to do so, or proposed to get rid of it)
Most people in the Trump administration and a google number of Congress is probably pedophiles
the Mussolini finale
The Gaddafi coda would also be an acceptable outcome.
Disturbing. An AI “ecosystem” is what the fascists say they’re building .
Gas prices should have nothing to do with governments, only markets. Gas prices being high is a byproduct of government interventions, or poor market choices, or both.
It baffles me that people see this guy getting increasingly unhinged the farther into his dementia he gets, and they just shrug. Congress could remove him anytime they want too.
Yeah it’s almost like they don’t want to fix anything or hold any of these ghouls accountable at all because they all want their own piece of the money/power shit pie. Weird. Nobody can seem to figure it out. What in the world is going on?
Greed. - And it’s such a disgusting disease that raping children is ignored in favor of it.
Thanks for reminding me…I try not to think about it bcz it’s extremely triggering as a survivor of child rape.
I listened to an (american) podcast and on the side they talk a lot about pefophiles/guns because it was relevant. The point was always like: man pedophiles shold all just hang on the road, so other pedophiles would be scared. “When i was young my dad told me that they just made pedophiles dissapear.” And he was awefully proud of that. There was A LOT of talk about what they would do with a pedophile. Meanwhile they have the most famous pedophile in charge of their country, but not a single mention of that.
His supporters don’t see this stuff.
They go to his rallies, can’t get more in your face real than that. His incoherent ramblings on a stage don’t lie.
They still just clap at anything he says. Must be nice, being in a cult and just ignoring or not realizing one’s struggles.
But actually, I’d rather be aware of them.
In their defense, if Trump is as bad as he appears at the rallies they attend that would mean they were wrong, enabled terrible people to do horrible things and are themselves monsters for cheering these people as they raped, stole and lied. So they kind of can’t afford to be wrong. Granted, they can’t afford anything alse,at this point…both financially and morally bankrupt.
MAGA faithful have been walking out due to boredom since his first term, it’s just physically impossible to get enough of them in one place at the same time because of all that empty land in the big beautiful map of cows that voted for him
