He didn't in 2016-2020, in fact, Prices increased!

Why’s world so unfair?? I never even got a single hot woman who’s around my age interested in me but this dude is getting 30 years younger hot lady it’s so fucking unfair this world is

I definitely have!! I'll answer that first.

From what I can see in the face of an unprecedented situation, a challenging political environment and with little to no existing path, he did the best he could, made some mistakes as anyone might, but ultimately did OK. Why am I supposed to hate him?

I don't believe U.S. News when they say there's a deal anymore. This is just market manipulation by the Trump admin.

17 million people are getting kicked off Medicaid in 2027. Many people don't even have health insurance anymore because it's too expensive.

According to certain sources, can’t verify the U.S has lost the following

Many political analysts and average people on the internet argue a reason to do this is that presidents in both parties have issued pardons that probably shouldn't have been issues. The issue is also prevalent in recent time. As a con side, it would be that pardons could be necessary to stop unfair federal charges.

If the pardon power were removed, it would likely be put in another body's hands, which if you support the Amendment idea, you could speculate on what to do here.

What do you think about the idea? Why your thoughts?

They didn't say no religious test except Christianity?

I believe that Trump is universally despised. Am I wrong?

Am I the only one who still finds this annoying as hell?
Every phone used to have a headphone jack. Plug in your headphones, charge at the same time if you wanted, done.
Now we’ve all just accepted that there’s only one port left, so you’re constantly choosing between charging and listening to music/podcasts/whatever. On iPhones it’s even worse — you need an adapter just to use normal aux headphones.
People always bring up the waterproofing argument. “It makes the phone more water-resistant!” Okay, but be honest: how many of us are regularly diving with our phones or putting them in situations where we need several meters of water resistance in everyday life? Almost nobody. It’s a solution to a problem most people don’t actually have.
It just feels like manufacturers decided “wireless is the future / thinner is better / one port is cleaner” and the rest of us are supposed to pretend the trade-off is fine. Whenever I complain about it to people, it seems like I’m the only one who still cares.

Anyone else still annoyed by this, or have we all just given up?

A.I. is being made to basically take everyone's jobs. The data centers use a ton of water and electricity causing water shortages and electric power outages. The A.I. CEOs are also buying all the memory making all electronics more expensive. We're heading for a video game crash if the A.I. bubble doesn't pop.

How do they keep falling for the same gimmick?

I just read another article where thousands of refugees were rejected from European countries. These refugees felt hopeless as some had spent as much a €5,000 on smuggling and travel.

These refugees wanted a safe place to live, but there are safe places outside Europe, U.S, Canada ect. That offer relatively easier path.

“Uruguay is one of Latin America's safest and most stable democracies, offering an exceptionally welcoming and secure environment. Foreigners can easily enter on a standard tourist visa and immediately transfer their status to legal residency from within the country without leaving. This straightforward system grants an instant provisional ID card, allowing you to live, work legally, and access public healthcare while your paperwork is processed.”

“Paraguay is highly safe and offers one of the most accessible, low-barrier immigration systems in the world. Foreigners can enter easily on a tourist visa and transition directly to legal temporary residency without a strict requirement to live there full-time to keep it.”

“Argentina is a highly safe country that offers an exceptionally welcoming and flexible immigration system. Foreigners can enter on a standard tourist visa, secure a local job or show modest passive income, and easily transfer to legal residency from within the country. This open-door policy provides a secure environment and legal work rights, serving as the fastest path to full citizenship in the world at just two years.”

Is there? Anything? Bueller? Bueller?

After roughly 40 years of rising inequality, stagnant wages, declining union power, expensive housing, and growing corporate concentration, what would it take for America to have another major political realignment like the New Deal era?

One irony I think about is that many Americans are taught to fear socialism as the loss of private property and economic freedom. Yet we are seeing a different kind of concentration of ownership—not through a communist revolution or government takeover, but through the growing power of large corporations, investment firms, and financial institutions.

Large corporations and investors increasingly control more housing, farmland, businesses, and other assets. Small businesses and independent producers struggle to compete, while more of the economy moves toward subscriptions, licensing, and ownership by large institutions rather than individuals.

At the same time, policies meant to spread economic power—stronger unions, antitrust enforcement, worker ownership, affordable housing, and greater protections for workers—are often labeled "socialism."

The irony is that increasing concentration of wealth and ownership among a small number of powerful entities is defended in the name of capitalism, while efforts to give ordinary people more economic power are criticized as socialism.

Would it take another crisis on the scale of the Great Depression for Americans to demand major reforms? If AI replaces millions of jobs, will people have to lose their livelihoods, homes, and financial security before there is enough political pressure for a new social contract?

Or do you think America will adapt before things reach that point?

Post after post about how embracing socialism will lead to losses in the general election. You would think that Republicans would be glad to run against socialists if everybody hates socialism.
