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

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

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.

[–] Sprocketfree@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 day ago

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

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 5 points 22 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 6 points 21 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.

As if conservatives place an iota of value on any human life apart from their own.

[–] Halliphax@lemmy.world 46 points 1 day 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.

I'm an investor in predominately european companies. My investments have risen 20%... so far

[–] SabinStargem@lemmings.world 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

EutelSat is where the investments are at. And the EU's MIC. Good time to be European.

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.

Fuck these idiots. Reaping what they sowed.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 142 points 1 day 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.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 36 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Even past that, the market has been on a historic bull run. The NASDAQ is up around 150% over five years. Unprecedented gains, even with the COVID dip.

What kind of whiny bullshit is this about a 15% decline? You're holding equity with a 100+ p/e. You took a bunch of leveraged risk and came out ahead, but you're still not happy because... you're not a trillionaire like Daddy Musk yet? Take your fucking profits and back away from the roulette wheel, you degenerates.

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

[–] groolthedemon@lemmy.world 36 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Right? Fuck around and find out. Damn them all for setting us on this path of this hellscape they set us all upon. If you're MAGA or didn't vote at all I don't have the sympathy or empathy left to give a shit what happens. The leopards are going to eat so many faces the next four years they're going to die of obesity.

"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.

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 21 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 22 hours ago

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

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

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.

You needn't look further than 'Conservative Environmentalist'. Obviously, he has no clue what his party actually does.

[–] dmention7@lemm.ee 44 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I've known a few of those. "Environmentalism" to them only goes as far as making sure they have some fields around them stocked with deer and pheasant to hunt, and maybe a lake they can tool around in their bass boat.

What I love is how many of them talk about, "he's just trolling," and it's like, even if he was, is that seriously what you want in a president? Now it's, "even if he is just trolling, this is a bad idea," as if there's ever a time that the fucking president treating international relations like a shitpost would be a good idea. These people are so, so stupid.

Aw poor babies maybe they shouldn’t have voted for a selfish worthless puppet manchild

[–] zephorah@lemm.ee 29 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Talked to my MAGA blood again yesterday. Apparently, the conservative talk radio is telling listeners Europe and Canada have had tariffs on us from day one and trump is just trying to level the playing field. America is always paying for them and now it’s their turn to pay.

In addition, firings are “political reward” jobs being removed, because that’s not fair. (Injustice and not fair resonates with everyone.) And a caller apparently called in to talk about his government employee buddy upset that his job credit card he normally uses to buy lunch was cut off, discovered when he tried to buy subway. Again with the “not fair” because most jobs don’t buy you lunch.

They still haven’t told me what show they heard this is on, because I invariably listen and pick it apart and they find my “over-analysis” upsetting.

I keep seeing this sentiment expressed over and over again and it seems that a large cross-section of the public still doesn't get it. I know I'm preaching to the choir here, of all places, but it bears repeating:

Trump is not a "businessman." Trump is a con man.

He has never actually run a successful business and he doesn't know how. The only thing he does know how to do is run a grift to bilk investors, creditors, the government, HUD, etc. out of money for projects that he really has no intention of completing or to prop up businesses he has no intention of sustaining. He is incessantly robbing Peter to pay Paul just long enough in the hopes of keeping his creditors or the prosecution at bay -- not always successfully, I might add, because his businesses have been bankrupted four times including the infamous three casinos.

The issue now is that since he's oozed his way into government he is shielded from having the hammer brought down on him by many of the people he's cheated.

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 4 points 22 hours ago

Putin's Sock Puppet is a businessman???

Oh, but there IS a national bankruptcy filing, little brainless Timmy.

You're not going to like that at all.
