Before Donald Trump, America was on a path to beat China -- American EV factories and supply chains, good-paying American jobs, and a more secure nation. Trump and Republicans blew that up. Jobs gone. Factories moving overseas. China stronger than ever.

Putin is betting we won't.

Great management of the "war economy" that Dummkopf Trumpf and Pete Hogsbreath want.

#2 This is all the bald midgets plan.

Wait for the midterms. That's is going to be huge --- show with filing lawsuit after lawsuit trying to delay the election results.

2028 will be worse. He will try to steal the presidency....again.

If Holy Mike is still speaker he will succeed.

At this rate, I'm not sure what's gonna be left of America after Donald Trump leaves office.

And I don't think he's gonna leave office in 2028.

I mean, I wonder what's gonna be left of America once Donald Trump's dead.
