2nd Trump Presidency

We must start urgently talking about the dangers of a second Trump presidency

We must start urgently talking about the dangers of a second Trump presidency. It’s concerning that even after four years, Trump garnered around 80 million votes. This shows that there is a significant portion of the population that remains unfazed by his actions and rhetoric. It’s alarming to think that people were discussing pandemic conspiracies while lying in hospital beds, showcasing how mentally conditioned and delusional some individuals are. Trump, a former Democrat, has managed to act as a false prophet, and his followers metaphorically kneel before him.

Many of us have been talking about these dangers constantly, but unfortunately, a significant portion of the population either doesn’t care or refuses to listen.… Continue reading

Trump added $8.4 trillion to the national debt: Analysis

$8.4 trillion. That’s the astounding amount that former President Trump added to the national debt during his time in office. To put it in perspective, that’s nearly $25,000 of debt for every U.S. citizen—an increase of 38%. And here’s the kicker: $940 billion of that debt was added even before the pandemic hit. So, this can’t be blamed solely on COVID-19.

It’s mind-boggling when some die-hard Trump supporters claim that they voted for him because of his supposed economic prowess. How could someone who claims to be a great businessman, someone who supposedly knows how to run a successful enterprise, amass such an incredible debt while in office?… Continue reading

We Are Normalizing Trump. Again.

We Are Normalizing Trump. Again.

As a liberal voter in Vermont who voted for Biden and will do so again, I have never once “normalized” Trump. It’s appalled me to see the media continuously give him a platform, even after his presidency ended. The media has been whoring themselves to this idiot since 2015, and they are doing it again.

When I read the headline “We Are Normalizing Trump. Again.”, I asked myself who this “we” is. Is it the general public? Is it the journalists? It’s clear from the comments that many people are frustrated with the media’s obsession with Trump.… Continue reading

Trump Brags He ‘Aced’ Cognitive Test, Correctly Identified a Whale

Trump Brags He ‘Aced’ Cognitive Test, Correctly Identified a Whale

As I read through the comments and reactions to Trump’s claim of acing a cognitive test and correctly identifying a whale, I can’t help but feel a mixture of amusement, disbelief, and concern. The headline itself is both bizarre and concerning, but it speaks volumes about the current state of affairs.

Let’s unpack some of the key themes and sentiments that arise from these comments. First and foremost, many people question the necessity of bragging about acing a cognitive test. It’s not something that typically warrants celebration or attention. In fact, one commenter points out that taking a cognitive test is a red flag in itself.… Continue reading

Ron DeSantis suspends campaign for president

Ron DeSantis suspending his campaign for president has definitely left many people surprised, especially considering the timing right before the New Hampshire primary. It was clear that he was not going to perform well in the primary, but to not even face a single primary vote is truly shocking. What makes it even more interesting is the fact that he was actually leading Trump in the polls at one point, indicating just how far he has fallen.

Many expected DeSantis to be the “Trump without the baggage,” someone who could appeal to a broader range of voters. However, as time went on, he seemed to transform into a “Ted Cruz without the charisma.”… Continue reading

Every Awful Thing Trump Has Promised to Do in a Second Term

As I sit reflecting on the potential terror of a second Trump term, I can’t help but recall past economies under authoritarian regimes in Latin America, whether from the last century or even more recent events. His promises bear an uncanny resemblance to all the hallmarks of failed economies under these autocratic governments. From protectionist tariffs leading to shoddy domestic substitutions to extreme crony capitalism. The parallels are startling and a chilling foreshadowing of the path America could be led down under his continued leadership.

However, it’s not just the damaging economic policies that Trump has favored before which concern me.… Continue reading

Trump attacks Haley while referring to her by her first name Nimarata

Trump attacks Haley while referring to her by her first name Nimarata. This headline has sparked discussions surrounding racism, predictability of Trump’s actions, and the ongoing threat he poses to democracy. As an Indian American woman myself, this issue hits close to home.

Firstly, the comments questioning whether the GOP voting bloc is racist and how they perceive non-white individuals are disheartening but not entirely surprising. Racism exists within every society, and it is naive to assume that it doesn’t exist within the Republican Party. However, it is crucial to note that not all Republicans are racist, just as not all Democrats are free from prejudice.… Continue reading

Fox News Poll Shows 35% of N.H. Republicans Say They Won’t Vote For Trump in General Election

As a concerned citizen, I couldn’t help but feel a mix of shock and hope when I read the headline “Fox News Poll Shows 35% of N.H. Republicans Say They Won’t Vote For Trump in General Election.” It’s an astonishing number that cannot be ignored. However, I must admit that I’m skeptical, and I won’t believe it until I see the results on Election Day.

Now, before you accuse me of being too cynical, let me explain my reasons. We’ve heard similar claims in the past, particularly in 2016 and 2020, where there were predictions of a massive exodus of Republicans who wouldn’t vote for Trump.… Continue reading

Zelenskyy invites Trump to Ukraine again, calls his ”peace plan” dangerous

As I sit here and contemplate the headline, the myriad of comments from various individuals, it becomes abundantly clear that inviting Donald Trump to Ukraine is a controversial move. President Zelenskyy’s decision highlights a complex dynamic between two leaders who have had a tumultuous relationship, to say the least. It is not surprising that Zelenskyy refers to Trump’s so-called “peace plan” as dangerous considering the history of their interactions and the sentiments expressed in the comments.

One recurring sentiment in the comments is the belief that Trump is nothing more than a puppet of Vladimir Putin.… Continue reading

As I sit here and reflect on the current state of our nation’s politics, I can’t help but feel a sense of frustration and disbelief. The headline, “McConnell, Cruz defend Trump to Supreme Court, asking: What’s an ‘insurrection’ anyway?” perfectly encapsulates the deep-rooted issues we’re facing.

The comments on this topic are both passionate and scathing, showcasing the intense emotions many Americans are experiencing. It’s clear that the sentiment towards McConnell, Cruz, and Trump is overwhelmingly negative. People are tired of their actions and rhetoric, viewing them as corrupt politicians who prioritize their own interests over the well-being of the nation.… Continue reading
