What could possibly go wrong when the US President says "We will own Gaza"? That is a peaceful place with no history of violence. Those words couldn't possibly incite a terrorist attack on Americans or US soldiers stationed overseas right?
No buddy...you don't understand the importance of the words of the President of the United States and neither does the dumbazz President of the United States.
OH STFU.
That has been in play for as long as we have been alive.
If Trump bombed Israel and assassinated Netanyahu we would still be targets.

This is the political game the left doesn't realize its engaged in. Are they actually going to defend this shit and bitch about trying to ferret fraud out? If so, game over.

Scott Jennings made this point on CNN. Trump just keeps finding these 80/20 issues, where the vast vast majority of the people support what he’s doing, then Democrats reflexively just take the side of the 20% because they’re so are up with TDS.

Democrats are not going to win have middle class women voting for them with their unwavering support for mentally ill men playing sports with girls, vaccine manufactures being immune from all liability no questions asked at all, etc.
 
You have no clue about how business dealings and negotiations work, do you? You simply sat in your classroom w/ drag queens indoctrinating our kids and screaming that the world is against them.
The United States is a country. It's not a business. The President's words matter. His words can immediately create terror cells to activate and stock markets to drop. His idiotic words are no way to run a business either.
The drag queen schtick is asinine and a lie only right wing morons in society believe.

Wonder how many shills on this message board are funded by USAID organizations?

Oh no, the starving children! You mean we won't give them anymore money to import food from companies propped up by the Mike Obama food lunch program (the one where local school districts were threatened with loss of funding if they didn't comply)?

If you were that worried about it, then you should be more upset that the money didn't actually go toward developing sustainable farms and water projects in those poor countries. But then again, if they actually had sustainable farms and control over their own food supply, then what influence would our corrupt institutions and bureaucrats have over them?
Sammsdad seemed awful mad about returning to work.... Just sayin.
 
Not really, but yeah that’s why I generally oppose it.

Given your unending support of the criminals who were targeting J6 hostages without affording them due process, I’d say you’d be a hypocrite to claim the democrats who’ve been stealing from American taxpayers deserve due process.
They had due process... They were arrested....had their day in court.... A jury of their peers.... And a judicial decision.
And why would I be for stealing from the taxpayers? Nobody is for that except those doing the stealing.
But taking a bulldozer to something requiring a scalpel is asinine and counterproductive.
 
Was USAID in operation his last term?? If so why didn't he do anything about all the taxpayer spending?
Trump was in office as President before Biden.... Therefore it's his fault.
Trump repeatedly proposed slashing the nation’s foreign aid budget for USAID and the State Department during his first administration, including proposing in his first year in office to slash the budgets by 37%, which Congress rejected.

So audit the Pentagon, HHS... hell, let DOGE audit the whole budget with AI and what's the odds 25% of our budget is waste fraud and abuse? 50% of US GDP is government spending and healthcare spending. That can't sustain a first world economy. I'll be curious to see if Warren Buffet has bought back into the market yet. He sold over 80% of stocks before the election.

Pot.... Meet Kettle.
"The Republican Party retained their majority in both the House and the Senate, and, with inauguration of Donald Trump on January 20, 2017, attained an overall federal government trifecta for the first time since the 109th Congress in 2005."

Trump and Pubs did NOTHING with USAID.
Trump and Pubs did NOTHING with healthcare.
Trump and Pubs did NOTHING with the border.
Trump and Pubs did NOTHING with education.
Trump and Pubs did NOTHING with cutting government spending.
Trump and Pubs did NOTHING with the deficit.

Nobody has a problem with an audit and Congress cutting the spending.
The problem right now is the illegal takeover of government agencies by an unelected billionaire from South Africa.

You specifically asked why Trump alone didn't do something. It's because Congress didn't let him. And now we are seeing that people like Lindsey Graham have been funded by USAID. Hmm, I wonder why the didn't let him cut it in 2017?
 
I love cutting government spending and finding waste. But they are going about it in a lazy ass way. Shutting everything down... Threatening layoffs.... Firing people with no real effort put into finding legitimate fraud first.
Shoot first, ask questions later is bad policy when cost cutting at the CIA and FBI.
Waste is waste, fraud or not.

Yeah definitely due process when 98% of the jury pool is biased against you and the POTUS had to pardon the government officials for the crimes they committed targeting you.

Your support for the fraud defies logic, as do all your dumbass positions, so don’t ask me why you would support anything.
 
My wife is a retired bookkeeper for a school system. She would order all kinds of stuff for the schools. Time after time she has told me about buying stuff and had to stay with-in companies that (I assume) have contracts with the schools. She has to submit three estimates from approved companies then buy from the lowest bid. Example, if three bid on a chair and the lowest bid was 100.00, that price got the bid. One of many things she had to buy could be bought a lot cheaper than the exact to the brand item. Example, that 100.00 bid that got the sale, she could have bought 75% cheaper elsewhere. Many times, she brought that to attention only to be told she had to stay with contracted companies. One can only imagine the over-cost school systems pay @ the expense of the taxpayer.

A friend of mine in college briefly worked in sales for an art supply company out of Chicago. He knew a lot of the art teachers at NIU and so he sent some things out before trying to meet them one-on-one to see what kind of sales he could create. Only one teacher met with him face to face and he was so shocked at how low the prices were that he didn't believe the products were any good. My friend had to bring in some items to show them, so he drove into the city to make it happen.

When the professor looked them over, they were the same or better quality than what he had been getting, so he placed a decent sized order. My friend was pretty stoked and decided he was gonna work for this company going forward, until the order reached the final stages and was never fulfilled. He got in touch with the owner and he said they didn't receive the order.

The school didn't approve the purchase, because it wasn't from their normal suppliers.

That world is entirely different than how businesses are typically run. It's not ethical and it's not practical, and it's EXACTLY how unethical people spend other people's money. It needs to stop
 
Nobody is for that except those doing the fraud or stealing.

You thinking this needs a scalpel shows how willfully ignorant you are. We’d likely have a surplus if the waste and fraud were rooted out. The gov’ wastes the vast majority of tax dollars we pay. Even a bulldozer isn’t enough.

If I took the time to watch a bunch of main stream media today, I would find this sentence given by one of the talking heads.
And that is the ONLY reason you repeat it.
LMAO you are such a fraud and a damn fool.

Let me ask you this.
If you found out multiple people had hacked your credit card, and were buying things on your credit, would you take the time and scalpel each store and discuss each purchase and have each purchase cancelled? Or would you bulldoze the credit card company and tell them not to pay, and to cancel the card, and maybe even switch to some other kind of card or payment system?

Everybody here knows the answer, so just sit this one out.
Never have I known a person in my entire life who enjoys taking the L as much as you do.
 
Oh lord help us.

Business numbers that matter in this "country"...

Inflation %
Unemployment %
GDP
Consumer Index
Stock Market
Trade Deficit
Spending
National Debt
And countless other "business" figures.....

WTH is wrong with you?
The government helps create some of the favorable conditions for a thriving economy but it is the business world that makes all of the above happen.... Not government. 🤣
You sound like a communist or socialist.
