And it will change absolutely nothing.

u/TankUMrMinor 16h ago

Obviously. Voting, on the other hand, will change a lot... If people vote for the right candidates this time

u/Johnnygrey77 14h ago

I used to think that voting mattered but does it really? I mean obviously we need Trump out, the man is a mentally unstable fool but in the big picture we're doomed no matter what crook takes the reigns. The reality is the U S. is an oligarchy. Corporations run this country.

u/Bearded_Gemini 14h ago

Finally someone else gets it! 🤘

u/labubuiababu 13h ago

I hate to say it but we need a true uprising against the government, left and right, but mainly against corporations. Billionaire and now trillionaire assholes have to be held accountable

u/Johnnygrey77 12h ago

100%

u/labubuiababu 12h ago

Thank you

u/TankUMrMinor 12h ago

It's not going to happen. Stop dreaming, research the candidates, and vote. Volunteer it you can too. Don't just sit back and complain.

u/labubuiababu 11h ago

But it can happen, especially if we stop listening to people like you

u/labubuiababu 10h ago

So let’s start doing this together or are you all talk?

u/Johnnygrey77 11h ago

It's not going to change. Minor talking points will change and minor policies but open your eyes. Politicians don't make decisions anymore, they do what they are paid too. And no both sides aren't the same you are right about that but only because their backers have different agendas but none that benefit us. Volunteering can help but only on a minor community level.

u/labubuiababu 10h ago

Let’s do this, let’s make the change. It has to start somewhere, why not here with us and now

u/Subject-Alarm-3769 5h ago

Are you mentally well?

u/TankUMrMinor 12h ago

That's some defeatist bullshit right there. No, both sides are not the same.

u/FounderingFox 16h ago

Is this.... real?

u/TankUMrMinor 16h ago

That was my first question too. But yes it is.

u/FounderingFox 16h ago

Ho lee. Someone forgot to take Trump's phone away again.

u/Sunnyday1775 14h ago

The Marshalls should arrest him

u/billth93 1h ago

Yeah plus some AI slop image of himself trading stocks in the Oval Office

u/Spiritual_Door1363 15h ago

Never forget.

u/AcuddlyPredator 14h ago

A tan suit??¿??? I thought that was akin to treason!

u/Additional_Path_5435 16h ago

Is scary sad. Nothing will shake out the MAGA’s. The blind , unquestioning obedience from followers is something to be studied. So we can prevent this from ever happening again. If we’re lucky enough to recover!!

u/hamHamAlucard 14h ago

Hell yeah can’t wait for our checks

u/Background-Common462 5h ago

Don't hold your breath...lol

u/Tall_Birthday_7654 14h ago

Is there no end to his whining self-pity? Such a fucking snowflake.

u/iamproven 16h ago

Where is it. In the defense Contractor’s pocket and we should call them offense not defense.

u/Altruistic_Put745 15h ago

If you believe this, you’re a fool remember, Reagan trickle down at economics will make the rich richer and they’ll just hand it down to us well that didn’t pan out either. Did it what a joke you’re a fool if you fall for this with the people need to vote vote in the midterms and end this farce.

u/reddittorbrigade 13h ago

American constitution is flawed.

SC Justices who have allowed Trump to plunder our country's money must be removed.

u/Ok_Context553 14h ago

BEFORE EVERYONE JUMPS TO DOWNVOTE ME... IM NOT A TRUMP SUPPORTER.

Moving on... His message says "Ive made hundreds of billions of dollars on stocks and many other types of holdings for the USA, not myself..."

How is that an admittance of being corrupt? Doesnt he say that its not for himself? What am I missing?

u/Bearded_Gemini 14h ago

That's kinda what I was wondering too... Sadly, even if he showed proof of it going anywhere but his personal holdings, I'm afraid people still wouldn't believe it. I'm not a Trump fan either, but damn...

u/Greasy-Chungus 4h ago

You're saying he's going to donate his stock market profits to the treasury?

u/GunnerSeinfeld 13h ago

I read it as "I made everyone who is wealthy enough to invest tons of money in stocks even more wealthy and they should thank me" not that he made that money personally.

u/Ok_Context553 12h ago

Ok. But he said "for the USA." I guess I just dont understand where the confession of corruption is...

u/GunnerSeinfeld 11h ago

Yea I don't get that either. There is obvious evidence of it elsewhere with trades, having a shitcoin etc but him taking credit for companies stock prices going up is just another dumb thing he's said.

u/DragonflyCalm0 15h ago

Just wait until November! Then you will see what they do.

u/Adis_Gruntledfatty 13h ago

And all the red hats go *GWAK GWAK GWAK GWAK SWOLLOW* Yes daddy Trump thank you!

u/pheoberodgers 12h ago

Maga will believe he actually did it for them

u/TranTriumph 12h ago

Ok, lets nationalize his assets then.

Well that’s why he got elected.

u/No-Access5068 11h ago

You could resign and turn yourself in. 🇺🇸

u/Careful-Swimmer3840 11h ago

Lets start with just voting in majority Democrats for house and Senate then in 2028 balance it out and if D's do a good job elect Democrat President if they failed elect a Republican President. We need to keep a balance of power in the government. By all means dont ever elect a failed business child ever again.

u/frAgileIT 10h ago

What do you mean finally? You mean yet again, right?

u/N0RMAL_WITH_A_JOB 10h ago

u/bitchcoin5000 8h ago

But what can you do

He's not throwing his hands up in exasperation

He's saying fuckyou to your face - but what can you do

u/HaiSaiDori 7h ago

Guess what Americans. You ain’t doing shit about it.

u/MyMiddleNutItches 6h ago

This is what any lawyer would call Exhibit A.

u/Lucky-Musician-1448 5h ago

Even ESL knows how to read.

u/Psychological-Wing89 5h ago

POTUS is an American and he is a person, so if you look at things objectively, he is doing this for the American People 🦅🇺🇸

If you have done it for America…..why not donate all your illegally gained billions of dollars made by receiving back handers and insider trading to the USA poor.

u/gdubb380 2h ago

If you guys haven't noticed. It does NOT matter. Our system if flawed. He can do whatever he wants. Im not mad at him. Not at all. You can't blame him. Half of us knew what he is. Be mad at the voters. Also, if you think that it'll all be over in 2 years , youre mistaken again. Hes shown the world exactly what to do and it will absolutely happen again. This whole thing should be used to show us all what the country really is. Its not him, its the people who live here. Or, maybe im wrong.

u/LuckSilver8999 27m ago

For the USA? So he’s going to give it all away? Yeah right

u/SueBeee 15h ago

OH MY FUCKING GOD WILL THIS EVER BE FUCKING OVER!?!??!?!

u/puzzle_bison7384 14h ago

u/Sunnyday1775 14h ago

He openly admitted to committing a crime

Someone charge him with a crime

u/Reasonable_Tomato976 16h ago

How is this corruption, exactly?

u/Granny_knows_best 15h ago

Inside trading, controlling the market in his favor, day ng it's not for him but he is the one making the billions. It's illegal, but not for him, the same thing others have gone for prison for he brags about. That is why it's corrupt.

u/hotlog1234 14h ago

All presidents have ensured their close ones invest "properly" during their tenure. He's just the first one to brag about it

u/Reasonable_Tomato976 14h ago

He's bragging about making money for the country, not for himself.

u/Reasonable_Tomato976 14h ago

He literally said that he's making money for the country, not himself. Reading comprehension doesn't exist on Reddit apparently.

u/Granny_knows_best 14h ago

He literally lies with every breath he takes. He made billions, his family made billions, the 1%made billions. What did the average American make?;

u/Reasonable_Tomato976 14h ago

I don't know what to tell you, maybe don't be average.

u/DirectorTemporary533 8h ago

My president <3

I know he’s a terrible speaker, but reading comprehension isn’t a strong suit of the left….

u/Mydemonswon 7h ago

Which is wrong by looking at test scores and the overall advanced degrees. Oh funding education. Oh the right and their love for the Bible and they don't get it right
