"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

[–] The_Caretaker@lemm.ee 8 points 3 hours ago

Not a business man, a con artist.

“Filing for bankruptcy” was his entire strategy as a business man, though.

[–] viking@infosec.pub 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 hours ago

Bye, bye reserve currency status and all the cheap loans, inflation reduction and broader economic influence that comes with it ...

[–] match@pawb.social 7 points 6 hours ago

"filing for bankruptcy" is exactly Trump's plan for the nation, except instead o bankruptcy it'll be martial law

[–] Numinous_Ylem@lemmy.world 16 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Watch out, he's starting to get ticked off! You don't understand, his investments are dipping!

[–] Rooty@lemmy.world 6 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

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!

[–] MITM0@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (1 children)

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.

[–] freddydunningkruger@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

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"

They're pretty dumb, they keep saying "canada would be the 51st state" as if there aren't 10 provinces

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.

[–] freddydunningkruger@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

Doesn't look exaggerated to me. Spitting image, the likeness is uncanny. Really captures that deep-down fascist soul.

[–] pinkghost@lemm.ee 11 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

It’s a bittersweet feeling to see their true colors come to the surface from what was always festering under the guise of “traditional values” and “conservative fiscal policies”. To refer to our country as a “company”…well that truly frames the photo exactly for how it is and how it’s been run… at everyone else’s expense for the benefit of very few. Surprise! May not like it so much now that it’s affecting sweet little ol’ you.

[–] SirFasy@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago

Oh no ..actions have consequences.. anyways..

[–] Halliphax@lemmy.world 41 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] El_Scapacabra@lemm.ee 24 points 13 hours ago

The "In-group" is the only one that matters.

[–] slampisko@lemmy.world 63 points 14 hours ago (4 children)

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.

[–] some_designer_dude@lemmy.world 10 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Millionaire is a pretty low bar these days, a salary worker reaching retirement age probably has a million dollar net worth.

[–] misteloct@lemmy.world 5 points 9 hours ago

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.

[–] Sprocketfree@sh.itjust.works 18 points 14 hours ago

Yea but they're never going to find that empathy so at least there's this

"real people" I guess Canadians are not real people for him.

[–] wheeldawg@sh.itjust.works 19 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (3 children)

Even if Biden had been as "out to lunch" as they all claimed (which was so crazy it hurt to see), even if he was worse, then at least the people around him knew what they were doing.

We're instead now surrounded by people like the crazy drunk fox news weekend host Hegseth and "one of the victors re-writing history Patel.

These aren't even serious enough people to have a conversation with. I legit think they would devolve immediately into literally saying "hurr durrr" if asked about their behavior for more than a couple minutes.

[–] aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 6 hours ago

plus Kash and Bogina who are both leading the FBI. WTF. Kash has never fucking run anything, and Bogina is a fuckwit.

[–] match@pawb.social 1 points 6 hours ago

asleep at the wheel is actually preferable to someone steering hard towards the biggest cliff they can see

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 12 hours ago

Too bad every news outlet is so terrified of losing access that they never fucking do

A business man who has failed to sell: Booze, football, and steaks...TO AMERICANS.

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.

[–] Doctor_Satan@lemmy.world 5 points 9 hours ago

I don't even know how that's possible, casinos are barely legal money printing machines.

Because it was a money laundering scam.

[–] T156@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago

He skimmed too much off the top, since he kept billing his expenses to the casino, and then they collapsed.

"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.

Putin's Sock Puppet is a businessman???

[–] nick@midwest.social 189 points 21 hours ago (6 children)

Fuck these idiots. Reaping what they sowed.

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 4 points 9 hours ago

Problem is, it's affecting us in canada, and other countries too, so were also reaping what they sowed

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 131 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

Trump is doing exactly what he said he would do and the obvious outcome happens, but they still don't see through his bullshit not matter how many times it bites them in the ass.
