He doesn't care about you.

^Uttered by the most caring bot on the site.

I think that's whataboutism, which is always irrelevant. Whether I care or not has zero impact on your life.
Whether Trump cares about the American populace does, given that he's your president and making decisions which affect your lives.

Yes, I know. So far, so good. Much better than Biden or you could ever do.

Why are you not spending time on motivational speaking tour helping those poor folks out, rather than beoytching here on a forum, whose primary subject material is beyond your comprehension?

^The word, "Capitalism," generated by an Occupy Wall Street supporter...

Will wonders never cease?

Bitch, commenting on something almost 20 years old, that you don't even KNOW what I supported,  just makes you look pathetic.

Oh, yes...I would not know what you support and I am looking pathetic...

If they want to actually do something, they need to strike fear into the hearts of the business investors and crash the market, thereby sending everyone into poverty.

See, evidence shows I was wrong and you didn't support what OWS was doing (I apologize)...

No, you wanted them to go FURTHER and drive everyone into POVERTY, while here, in this very thread, you are complaining that Trump is trying to do the same thing!

LMMFAO!!!

For real!!!

Clearly, you did not.  Maybe try reading the whole post?

Honestly, this protest is rather pointless.

They're attempting to bring to light what everyone already knows.  Or at least what everyone knows they think.

Wall Street knows how they feel.
Main Street knows how they feel.

Nothing is going to happen since Main Street and Wall Street both ensure that the same politicians that are able to keep this stuff happening will remain in power.  This is just a bunch of people who feel cheated blowing off some steam.

If government is the problem march on the White House.  Thats where the problem is.

How so?
Did a President tell the banks that they are above the law?  Did a president tell the Banking system that the American People are ignorant and you should give them loans they can't actually afford?  Did a president write any law currently in effect that's harming or helping our economy?

Yes.
All of the above?

As is evident, apparently I felt it pointless as it would have no impact.  Me suggesting what WOULD have an impact is not an indication of support for such an action.  And my own post seems to confirm that.  And subsequent posts seem to conclude that, while regulation is needed, these protests are ineffective.

And they were.


Next?

The whole tenor of your post is indicative of a desire to change how the US economic structure exists. It is patently evident.

The use of the word, "need," is beyond dispute.

Hey, if you wanted to kill alot of people, you need a gun.

-Apparently this means I endorse mass shootings.

Change the whole structure?  No.  But looking through the thread it's evidence I feel restrictions need to be put in place but that won't happen.

But sure, make up shit.  Not like you matter.

[Action80]

Glad you mentioned that. You have made it obvious of your support for mass extermination of various groups of people, especially those participants on J6.

Great self-owns, LD.

You are so cooperative!

Browsing through people's posts that they made fourteen years ago and on a different website so that you can argue that they...said something different fourteen years ago is one of the more bizarre debating strategies I've seen on this website.

Trump wouldn't even last as long in the milk fridge as BoJo did. Weak leadership smh.

I do enjoy that Tom is so stuck on the fridge issue, though. That one is still giving Boris some trouble, too.

$100 says Elon wins.
After all, he has the president's ear, the president's purse, and full control over all the contracts the US government has.


Also: a missile strike is the biggest threat? Lol.

He does know there's a few thousand miles between the US and its nearest enemy.  Unless he's afraid of Greenland.

I like this bit from the link:

The SpaceX-led group is pitching the Pentagon on a 'subscription model' for missile defense, sources said

How would that even work?

This is relatively minor news given the abducting and exiling of American citizens without due process and the dismantling of both the federal government and the economy, but it's worth noting that Trump is once again lying on his annual physical:

https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/13/politics/trumps-health-report/index.html

No doctor wrote this. Bragging about Trump's golf victories is a clear indication that this was written by one of Trump's stooges and simply signed off on by a doctor, while the details themselves were obviously simply provided by Trump and not the result of any kind of examination. I've proved before that Trump's claim of being 6'3 is a blatant lie. Weight isn't as easily proved by just looking, but I'm still certain that Trump, with his visible obesity, weighs well over 224 lbs.

Trump's arrest record lists him at 287, 5'10"

-never mind.  Didn't read the article properly.

[honk]

The same article says that that's not true:

The claim that the NYPD publicly revealed Trump's height and weight is false. Neither the NYPD nor the New York State Police has made any announcement about Trump’s height or weight, nor have they publicly released any booking details following his indictment. HindustanTimes.com didn't find anything on either the NYPD or State Police's websites, Instagram, X, Facebook, or YouTube handles during their verification.

Trump is supposed to be 6'3", yet is shorter than Vance who is 6'2".

[Tom Bishop]

Nice pivot, I see that the new leftist talking point has been deployed. It is fascinating how the left fixates on Trump's height, as if that is relevant at all to the unprecedented political upheaval and mass demolishment of liberalism occuring. While he's dismantling their cherished DEI initiatives, cutting budgets for their favorite projects, and sending leftist bureaucrats packing, they want to debate how tall he is. Obsessing over the ruler while ignoring the wrecking ball. But hey, as their ideological empire crumbles, at least they'll have an exact measurement of the wrecking ball operator.

Anyway, this argument based on selective pictures isn't really that convincing, considering that the first few results on image search shows versions where they are more similarly statured. Unlike the above, Trump's eye level is not at mouth level in these images:

I think we just gotta ask ourselves... If a president will lie about something as trivial as his weight and height... What else is he gonna lie about?  How can we trust him?
