Trump is behind a ‘spiritual revival’ in the U.S,’ says Karoline Leavitt
Karoline Leavitt said that evidence of renewed faith, especially within younger generations was becoming more visible and that it was a ‘beautiful sight’www.independent.co.uk
Let's ****ing go!Trump might not be as popular as many of his cultists think he is.
These are impressive scenes from around the country today. The next step is getting all these people to vote for Democrats. Swamp out this wannabe dictator and dictatorship.

One thing I find kind of interesting is that the biggest issues around election time were inflation and illegal immigration/the border.
Doesn't seem like anyone even talks about or cares about illegal immigration/the border now. It was a huge issue last fall but now I never hear about it. Haven't heard any numbers on it at all really. Are there less illegal immigrants crossing the border now? No one really seems to care anymore.

Are you familiar with the marshmallow test? It is a test to measure a child’s ability to delay gratification. The nature of your argument is to say eating the marshmallow is better than not eating the marshmallow, and you totally ignore down-the-line consequences. All of the things I listed, getting rid of fraud, modernization, reduction of redundancy, etc., have long term benefits.
With the tariffs, I’m not so sure they do have long term benefits. The architect of this idea says they will, and I’m not talking about Trump. He didn’t come up with this idea. Scott Bessant has been pushing it for years. Trump is only the one selling the goodness of tariffs to the American people, and I’m not buying what he’s selling. I'm open to being proven wrong, but my instinct is that free trade is better than taxed trade.
This forum feels much cleaner today!!! That’s a reason to celebrate!

The thing about “bringing back factories” is people think that means they’ll come with high paying jobs that don’t require a degree. Those jobs used to exist because of unions, you know, those things that have all but disappeared in this country.This forum feels much cleaner today!!! That’s a reason to celebrate!
For those folks who want “factory jobs” back, can I suggest that they go work construction right now? If you’re not willing to work construction then shut up about “bringing back duh factories.” It won’t be you or your kids working these hard manual labor jobs, it’ll be immigrants.
Nothing sounds more tone deaf and privileged to me right now that trumpers who spend 20 hours per day online talking about “bringing back the factories.”
The more hilarious part is it never left. The US is second in terms of overall value of manufactured output and is pretty high by any measurable metric. The simple fact is cheap products go where labor is cheapest. Trump sells folks on a notion that manufacturing clothes pins will pay people $70k when that dog don't hunt. Americans are by in large idiots, so whatever floats their boats.The thing about “bringing back factories” is people think that means they’ll come with high paying jobs that don’t require a degree.

Ah yes. I wondering where the workforce for all these factory jobs was coming from.Dunno what you guys are talking about, there is plenty of manufacturing going on in private prisons.

I thought of children doing the work. Of immigrants doing the work. But prisoners makes the most sense.
America has a huge prison population.
Florida very recently loosened their child labor laws.Oh Jo kids are doing it too. If you actually visit rural America, you’ll see how young they start working. Now even more so with continued disinvestment and grifting by the haves.
Some states, West Virginia for one, is trying to loosen child labor laws. They would put children in coal lines if they could, and have.
