“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.
Extorting a fortune from the working class. I can’t wait until an angry mob gives him the Mussolini finale
Missing a word there I think:
Trump says he doesn’t ‘give a damn’ about gas prices as US BILLIONAIRES are making a ‘fortune’
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.
We know
Who is making a fortune? It certainly isn’t me
Advisers told me not to say it
is the right “build up” before the punch line.
He’s bragged about destroying the world through Iran war with the same brag before. Also adding, that destroying world is good for America because of high US oil production and US doesn’t need Straight of Hormuz.
So there’s always been a tails we lose, heads we deserved to lose all along, plan for the war.
He said the loud part loudly.
His presidency is a slow motion car wreck, but we are in the car and he having the time of his life .
US = stock market = him
He’s a piece of shit, he needs to BLER be sent to a farm upstate.
It’s because his usage of ‘fake’ doesn’t mean what one might think. He simply means a headline that he doesn’t like.
And the chuckle fucks still support him
How can a non-wealthy trump supporter hear this and continue to support him?
He’s pissing in your fucking face.
They like the piss. It’s trickle down economics.
They don’t know he said this.
That’s right. The “editorial” for small town papers around here, which are mostly owned by super rich people now is a satire bit about the editor making fun of himself wanting to be king, to try and make fun of the no kings movement. Nothing of actual substance ever enters conservative owned media outside of them making fun of it so their base sadly thinks they are being clever by rejecting opposing views.
I’ve heard the saying that they all consider themselves temporarily embarrassed millionaires.
It’s quite amazing how dumb these maga people continue to be.
Because as long as he is pissing in minorities faces too, it’s acceptable for them.
They are just brainwashed.
I’m done with “brainwashed”. They’re fuckin morons.
It is important to clarify that they are hateful morons. The “hate”-part is doing a lot of work. You can be a moron and not be a Trump supporter, but it is very rare to see a hateful moron who isn’t one.
They are indeed, but somewhere humanity failed them. You are not born a moron.
You absolutely are born a moron LOL
Idk I’ve met babies and they are deffo morons.
Leopards been eatin’ good since 2016.
What am I saying. These phat cats been eatin’ good since Reagan.
Leopards been eating good for far longer than that. At least since politics was invented. Probably even before then.
Cells. Lack of them to be specific. And brain ones to be more specific.
Of all the cells, the brain ones really are the most important of the cells.
At this point the “mask” is so off we’re just being mocked by a skull
This is Trump we’re talking about. His mask was always paper thin and falling off fifteen minutes after he said anything “politically savvy”
Anyone who has been fooled by him is a fucking idiot.
Can you see any difference between the “drain the swamp” stuff from round 1 and openly gloating about how profitable the little people’s struggles are?
The only difference between round 1 and this time is round 1 there were some in his party that thought they could control him and it was blatantly obvious they weren’t ready to actually win the election. That’s why you had so much turnover and can actually set a political time period of a Scaramucci being 10 days. This time around the Heritage Foundation hitched their wagon to his horse. Remember also, he bought the hotel right down from the white house and refused to separate himself from it so you had foreign influences staying there trying to get cozy with him.
Openly gloating about how profitable the little people’s struggles are, he did plenty of that in Covid, and if you knew anything about the man, plenty before he was elected. This is the guy who’s always been infamous for not paying his debts.
As a far more casual observer, round 1 the cartoon business villain from “the apprentice” promised to use his signature catchphrase on the crooked politicians everyone was already so sick of and round 2 has been a victory lap where perhaps the most crooked ‘politician’ of all time revels in the hypocrisy of gleefully marketing us to the highest bidder, with the full support of his only constituents that actually matter (the corpo scum buying). Remember that supreme court thing where they said corporations were people now? At this point I’m waiting for one where they just come out and say people aren’t anymore. Already kinda went and made speech meaningfully impossible without money
I think its great. We should be more honest with each other.
It would be great if there were consequences. But instead we were preached at every day “and justice for all” while we get justice for none
Love Jesse :)
Whenever he says America he means “me”.
For examle: Me first! or Democrats are the greatest threat to me.

Did that go well for him?
Trump seems to have a humiliation kink so he might briefly enjoy the consequences should he see any
A me rica you say?
Commuting is not deductible. Can’t afford gas to get to work? Too bad.
It should be, people do get it covered. Talk to your union rep if the company doesn’t cover your commute.
that’s not what deductible means.
If it’s covered then it’s a business expense. You can deduct it from your taxes and get the non-tax value as compensation.
The companies don’t need to cover the gas tax.
That’s not how that works. (Normal) commuting costs are never deductible (in the US). Even if your company covers commuting costs for you, that compensation is still fully taxable as income.
I never said it wasn’t.
there are enough misunderstandings about it (probably because related laws change so frequently) that the IRS devoted much of a publication to it
