The people who wanted a Prius way back when moved their money to Teslas. The new one is pretty sweet and I don’t get anxiety riding around those things.
On the other hand, Teslas (specifically those that are blacked out)....

You had interesting tastes... That seems like picking between a nice steak and a bucket of vomit to me, but that’s just me.
Still terrifying that even a third look at the idiot and think “THAT dude is the guy who is best to run the country”. But then again, the only Trumpers in my family are my brother and his wife, and they are first class morons on the best of days. The first time around - OK - he talked a kind of good game. The second…
It was capped at 10K...not eliminated. I’m in DC, with high local tax and real estate tax, plus I have a house in Mn that I used for the deduction too. Once the cap hit at 10K, I lost over 10K more in the Schedule A deduction. In essence a tax increase for me and lots of others....so some redneck hillbilly in a…
THIS! Fuck him! I went from $10K to $20K a year, so the billionaire fuckers could save another 1%. He fucked the middle class over so-badly that I still reel with the shock of the shafting.
That fucker, and Moscow Mitch, should rot in a prison, for the end of their days.
What a betrayal of the middle class.
I really, truly have to believe that the polls are simply wrong that the race is this close. Surely half the population can’t possibly be THAT stupid? There is no such thing as a perfect Presidential candidate because anyone who actually wants the job is by definition insane, but Donald Trump?????? WTF?!?!
He doesn’t need to, as his voters don’t understand how tariffs work, either
Elimination of the SALT tax exemption was a good example of this. Never did I ever think that a Republican administration would significantly raise my taxes but after the SALT tax exemption was eliminated, my taxes went up by about $20K per year.
Steel tariffs were a good example of how they hurt the American economy and only succeed at appeasing the lower rungs of society for making it seem like they are “sticking it to the foreigners.” Back when Trump was president, the tariffs for Chinese steel went through the roof and do you know what American steel…
Yeah. I mean by shutting down Mexico’s factories, Trump is basically begging the country to court Chinese investment as a substitute. Won’t be long before you can’t buy an American car south of the Rio Grande because the Chinese have swallowed up the entire market, and were invited to do so by Latin American economies…
USMCA:
“I’ll take NAFTA, tweak it a little here and there... change its name to something that looks like the acronym for the Marine Corps and say it’s an all-new trade deal negotiated by me that fixes everything bad about NAFTA.”
-Donald Trump
“They’ll approve it,” Trump said, cutting the reporter off. “I don’t need Congress, but they will approve it. “I’ll have the right to impose them myself if they don’t.... The ones who understand business do support it,” he said at the event in Smithton.
If you’re worried about China’s industrial power; should be doing everything to help LATAM countries manufacturing. Also not screwing their economies stops illegal immigration more than walls.
So, what exactly do we think is physically happening inside his skull, where the rest of us have a brain?
The concept of the blue collar rural farmer is largely incorrect now anyway. Most farming is the work of gigantic corporate coops, with the small family farm being all but dead. Not that this makes you WRONG, since the real power behind Trump is the corporate overlord.
Trump reminds me of one of my childhood friends’ step-fathers.
“Kamala Harris wants to turn America into Venezuela!” shreiks the candidate also running on a platform of government-controlled commodities pricing, a policy that was at the core of Venezuela’s economic collapse.
“If I win, John Deere is going to be paying 200 percent,”
This is why consumer protection laws exist, and why shitty red states often pass laws that strip away consumer protections. Ugh.
Ah yes, I remember when Trump went to that Carrier plant and saved all the jobs from going to Mexico........... but it happened anyway. Or the time he went to the big Foxconn factory announcement to to bring jerbs to that area............... that never happened. There is a deal no just announce dby Biden to fill…
