My first thoughts when seeing the Don was attending superbowl was , far out , the security cost would be enormous . When it comes to a good publicity performance & golf however, it seems that no expense is too much . Some reports have the cost being around 3 million but who knows? That makes the other tickets look cheap …………..“Get-in” tickets are the cheapest seats to simply gain entry to a game. Secondary seller and market analyst ticketiQ had “all in” priced seats as low as $2,825 for the cheapest seats in the house. Meanwhile, some lower bowl seats with a face value of $6,350 had slipped below $6,000. https://sports.yahoo.com/despite-trump-taylor-swift-and-kendrick-lamar-…

The National debt of the U.S. is 34 trillion dollars.
Thats money the American people have to pay interest on and forfeit their way of life to survive. Homelessness, poverty is rife and it’s their money.
Should they just keep borrowing to prop up the rest of the world or should the rest of the world step up….finally.
Good or bad Trump and the new government are done with it and are taking action…..finally.
Only time will tell the outcome and that’s time we should give them to try.

Opti,
At least previous administrations had taken responsibility for cleaning up the mess they created, but the Don has pulled the pin, so to speak, in Cambodia.
Now look at who has stepped in to help.
Great work Don!

Hamas is about to realise what "fuck around & find out" means.
The way they parade the released hostages is disgusting.

Well Trump has had 3 weeks and the price of eggs has gone way up,
and eggs are actually becoming hard to find,
As the price of gasoline and everything else has gone up.
And all the expert economists are saying tariffs will only increase inflation and prices ,
“ only time will tell the outcome “
Maybe the US people think that 3 weeks is long enough for Trumps zero promises so far,
And with Trump spending a lot of his time playing golf at Mar a largo , at taxpayers expense.
And Musks SpaceX ready to gouge trillions more out of the economy ,
I think you’re getting distracted by the nice shiny Trump coins.

Many here will disagree but he's a clever guy. That doesn't mean he's a good person with good intentions. But he knows how to drive things to closure when it suits him. Now we are talking about rebuilding Gaza. Who, how, how much, who is paying....We didn't talk about any of that a couple of weeks ago. He quickly shifted the whole narrative.
Burly is so horny from Trump that he is cheering on more genocidal behaviour, despite claiming to be against rampant kid murdering. Weeeeee!
"They" have to do something we say.
"You" have to do this
"Here's your deal"
Indo says "they have to do...."
Donald says "who would want to be them there, they have to..."
Mmmmm,
Do you fkn idiots know whose decision it actually is?....under the law that is the only line that we've got to stop us stupid upright cognitive monkeys from tearing each others faces off and killing each other and turning the whole fkn place into badlands?
It's THEIRS.
It's a thing called "SELF determination".
Part of their BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS.
It's something you never have to think about, because you've got yours, and if it was denied you, by force, with prejudice, you fkn pussies would be crying for your mummies.
Keyboard warriors.
And @ Opti, what a line,
"Countries must stand on their own two feet and stop looking for US hand outs."
Fucken oath eh Godboy,
Tell fucken Israel that, not me.
Like a festival of idiocy , some of these posts.
I'm out again.

Pretty easy to believe that Israel broke the ceasefire agreement, what with killing children until the last possible minute before the "ceasefire" and blowing up their own citizens on Oct 7th. I'm sure we'll hear "YOU BELIEVE PROPAGANDA" from the usual suspects, though.
Musk is investigating and axing , many of the government departments and agencies that are investigating his companies for workers exploitation , and other illegal practices.
The CFPB ( Consumer Financial Protection Bureau) , has helped over 200 million consumers , in the US with fraud and rip offs by big companies and corporations.
Which returned way more money to the government and taxpayers than it cost. to run .
Musk has just axed this department, because it has been helping consumers fight big businesses rip offs . Musk and his mates.
People including Musk fans ,are starting to question why Musk has axed this agency ,
When it returns way more money than it costs to run, and helps the little guys consumers.
You don’t need to think too hard about it, to realise that this is just one example of
Musk’s corruption 101.

When the vast majority of the world are looking back on Israel's reprehensible actions and the U.S.A's more than slight involvement with utter, utter disgust, and that day will come sooner rather than later, you can say that you were too busy "owning the libs" or whatever phrase you've imported from watching MAGA videos to speak out, even though you still won't shut up about the "death jab", which killed how many people? How many children? Oh yeah, fuck all. And you were so sure the Trumpy was gonna put an end to all the wars. Pffffft. This is definitely the last chance I address you. I'm not even sure that you're not doing a bit. Comedic turns shouldn't generally punch down on innocent people being blown to bits, but hey, Tony Hinchcliffe still has a career.
Peace, burleigh. Don't let the revolving door that is your morals hit you on your way to another post.
Musk doesn’t want anyone looking at his treatment of staff or Tesla oe etc etc.
The Cybertruck is the worst vehicle ever for fires and death by fire . He is leading the way to burn people to death. He don’t want anyone looking too closely.

CBS News poll — Trump has positive approval amid "energetic" opening weeks; seen as doing what he promised.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-approval-opinion-poll-2025-2-9/
We can all bitch and moan about things but the reality is, Trump will be seen as successful by a portion of population. More than half of Americans don’t even have a passport. Average American hardly ever travelled anywhere outside the US and has no interest or knowledge about some USAID. There is little empathy and understanding of others. Most people are obese and overweight and general health knowledgeable is low. Education of the world outside the US barely exists. Trump thrives in this environment.

If that’s a serious poll . America is seriously
F dup
Or is it the corporate media rolling over and doing the total grovelling?
Probably the latter.
Trump had the lowest approval rating ever for an inauguration, someone is telling porkys
CBS? Really? It’s one of the normalish news outlets. If anything it’s left rather than right leaning.

A damning indictment really, but yeah, it's what he said he would do and the majority voted for.

Not anymore , corporations everywhere are crawling to Trump for the corruption he is bringing.
Times change, Rogan and Musk used to be left wing liberals
Now Musk is a a Nazi and Rogan is anybody’s .
Corporations go where the power , money and corruption is. Did you see Trump’s inauguration stars , corporate billionaires with blatant conflicts of interest.
The most surprising thing about the poll is how high the 18 to 29 year old approval rating is 55%, there only one group higher age 45 to 64 at 56%
Like the election he is also rating very well among African Americans and Latino's (historically for a republican president)
Id say people just like the fact he is doing a lot and fulfilling many promises.
Anyone questioning the poll should read the article till the end.
'This CBS News/YouGov survey was conducted with a nationally representative sample of 2,175 U.S. adults interviewed between Feb. 5-7, 2025. The sample was weighted to be representative of adults nationwide according to gender, age, race, and education, based on the U.S. Census American Community Survey and Current Population Survey, as well as 2024 presidential vote. The margin of error is ±2.5 points.'
I mean, if we now don't trust YouGov polls then we should just shut this site down and move on with our lives. The above is pretty standard stuff and it's statistically relevant.

Trump has sued or is suing main stream media organisations for not much,
and they are all rolling over and not defending themselves, even though they would win.Bowing down to power in their own best interests , so a corrupt government doesn’t wipe them out.

I don’t think Judges and the US legal system agree ,
Just handing Trump another injunction stopping the firing of the USAid workers.
One in a long line of court rulings against Trumps illegal attempts at unconstitutional executive orders.

Yeah Trump hasn’t said anything about taking over Gaza , has he,?
I’m not sure how you will go over there with a fast fading memory, you’d better consider that.
Interesting actions in Israel where undercover police have raided a two bookstores in Jerusalem, ransacked shelves, confiscated books and arrested the owners due to ‘incitement’.
The confiscated books included a colouring in book and another was from Banksy. All of the titles are available to purchase online making any arrest pretty unreasonable.
