Trump also lies and says whatever he thinks you want to hear.

Which means half the things he said he'd do he'll never get around to doing, and half the things he'd said he'd never do (2025 for one) he will do.

The marks fell for the conman who just wanted a get-out-of-jail-free card. And got it.

Donald was supposed to be better for the economy, but his deportation plans will get rid of millions of people who do most of the actual grunt work in the US. Hard work that no one else wants to do for the wages offered.

So when food prices start climbing again and restaurants and small businesses start closing and construction ceases.... and then when you start adding 20-60% tarrffs on imported clothes and food and goods... and when slashes in government spending tigger layoffs among teachers, police, and essential services... and then when they cut SS and Medicare and even more people are broke and homeless....

So when the economy collapses... my only real question is whether or not people are going to accept personal responsibility and remember that this is what they wanted?

Or will they start pointing more fingers elsewhere?
