As the economic news keeps coming out over the coming weeks keep one thing in mind: this is the fault of one man and didn’t need to happen.

#DumpTrump causes a WORLDWIDE financial crisis and recession with his stupid and childish #Tariffs, they´re a #Boomerang that comes back to US citizens and that´ll spread WORLDWIDE, in every country goods become more expensive now due to #TheOrangeClown, also here in Germany. Lock him up.

The whole fucking republican party has been working on this for 40 years. Please don't act so naive. How much did you protest when Citizen United was blessed by the corrupt Supreme Court?

He didn’t. Republicans, all of them, are evil. It took a violent coup attempt at the capital for adam to change his tune. He’s just as bad as the rest of them.

Was my congressional rep. Townhalls were pre-screened for friendlies. Not once voted for or against anything I supported. Was in a gerrymanderd district & writing was on the wall for the 2022 election when district was reconfigured. I think that's why he got so patriotic. His days were numbered.

Well, I agree with that. Congress has the ability to do something and refuses to. They hold a lot of responsibility in this as well. Following their dear leader does not excuse them.

You remember the movie Red Dawn? That day is coming sooner than we had thought. Trump has made us weaker and his voters are to blame as well as the Republican cowards that confirmed all of his unqualified, dangerous, reckless, and evil cabinet appointees.

And *sanctioned* by every elected. Sorry -- posting before coffee is not my superpower. Point is: the GOP in the Congress could have stopped the tariff bullshit. They didn't. They voted against reversing course.

No dude. It's the fault of everyone who voted for him. And the fault of everyone in Congress allowing him to get away with this because they're afraid Melon Husk is going to fund a primary challenge against them.

This is the correct take. It isn’t one man. It’s America in a much broader, deeper sense. Trump is a symptom of something profoundly rotten. A lot of people there have a lot to answer for. Even here in Canada, we now know America is not a reliable friend, and behaves like an enemy.

well, I disagree that it's the fault of one man. It too many millions of idiots to vote for him, thousands of sycophants spending ridiculous amounts of $$ promoting his propaganda, and massive mainstream news support and complicity. Not to mention the richest person in the world...

And it still doesn’t. And it can end at any time. 👇

From expert @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social “Just a reminder: the US is not Castro's Cuba, Putin's Russia, or Xi's China. At any moment the GOP could unite and oppose Trump and create a crisis for him. Their cowardice has been astounding but they can still act without being put in a Gulag or shot.”

In Europe we are supposed to be calling Trump to kiss the ring and ‘have talks’. What CNN does not mention is you can’t play chess with a penguin 🐧 👇 bsky.app/profile/maar...

Trump “ready to talk” @cnn.com reporter does not mention how to deal with an 80-yo economic illiterate with a 3 minute attention span. Trump also thinks ownership lies with people who need to come to him to kiss the ring and beg for favours. We’re not in the MAGA-cult. www.cnn.com/2025/04/07/p...

When are people going to recognize this is a pure power-grab & has nothing to do with what's good for us, ONLY what's good for him & his cronies? Tesla in trouble? who cares!?! Muskrat will survive! 47 is happy to let him take the heat while he golfs BADLY. Worst swing EVER!

At what point does not only the US but the world say enough is enough? The world economy is going to shit and it's because of this stupidity. That is one political party against the whole world.Make it makes sense.

Nah, that one's got a few more layers of nefarious. They didn't SELL a bunch of shares, they put a bunch up for the market. Their volume was pretty normal after releasing all those shares. I'm guessing it's a way to get crooked politicians and billionaires to transfer cash to him later.

No, it’s the fault of a lot of people. Mitch McConnell, number one. Republicans in Congress, number two. The Supreme Court conservatives, number three. Trump voters, number four.

I can only imagine that McConnell’s greatest regret was not voting to impeach Trump. That would have saved lives (Covid) and saved a lot of hardship he’s brought to America. McConnell could have simply said yes, and it would have done a world of good.

Respectfully, why aren’t we discussing how “Signalgate” and tariffs are deliberate distractions, used to weaken the country and shift public focus, while the Executive Branch lays the groundwork for an authoritarian regime aligned with Project 2025 and the Dark Enlightenment movement?

I am absolutely not letting Trump off the hook, as he is ultimately responsible for everything he did. But he wasn't the first person who started this shit show. The first person I blame (in this century) is Mitch McConnell. In 2009 his stated key goal was to make /1

... In 2009 he said his primary goal was to make Obama a 1 term Pres. He followed that up by a blanket block of ANY legislative efforts of the Obama administration. He made the blatantly unconstitutional decision to block Pres. Obama's Supreme Court nomination of Merrick Garland, because /2

... he felt it was too close to an election that was nearly 9 months away. Oddly, when Ruth Bader-Ginsberg died on 9-18-2020 (a mere 45 days prior to the election) he expedited the confirmation of Amy Coney-Barrett. After J6, he convinced his fellow senators ... /3

... to not vote to impeach, even though he said on the floor that Trump was responsible. Trump was only able to cause this horrific damage to our country because he was enabled by others. McConnell says he's a Christian. I hope he's thought about how he'll explain his hateful actions to his Maker.

I initially reposted this because…well all the crazy in the White House. But if the republicans hadn’t nominated him THREE d**n times…and a bunch of folks had bothered to vote or could get over voting for a Woman, we wouldn’t be in this mess. #WeCanBeBetter #PutAdultsInTheWH #Resist #HandsOff

So, pres Obama just broke his silence on DJT.This may not sound like big news; it is huge. BO is the only man, pres that lives rent free in DJT head. DJT jealousy is based on his racism & disbelief he didn’t win an immediate 2nd term. DJT can be broken with praise of Obama it will crush his ego

Before Trump took office, America's economy was on the rise and stronger than any in the world. Biden saved us from Trump's 1st recession, and now there's no one but Congress to save us from Trump's tariffs.

Check this out look at the years pay attention Trump left us shit he said the economy was so great, now he got a great economy. After the Republicans said no to everything and look at what Trump is doing now, trumps not a politician he’s a used car salesman.

It goes beyond the Republicans, Project 2025 creators, Evangelicals, and other sideshow morons. Democrats needed to play ball sooner, recognized Biden's decline, and understood better what the public wanted. Trump holds the highest position in the land, so it could all be pinned on hi. For sure.

It's completely the fault of an amoral electorate that put a fucking criminal in the WH. It really is mind boggling to understand how any DECENT person could knowingly vote for a felon and an adjudicated rapist for POTUS. Half this country is morally fucked up.

I think rather more than even that. Republicans were elected to do exactly what Lord Dampnut is doing now, take down democracy, make war on our allies, undermine the rule of law, terminate the Constitution, attack our allies, just burn it all down. It was millions of conservative, Republican voters.

Conservative, Republican voters are anti-democracy fascists. They hate our democratic political system, hate the laws it produces, hate the US Constitution, hate everything about the USA. They want to remake it in their own image creating a new racist, fascist, plutocratic, authoritarian state.

This is not the fault of one man. It is the fault of all those who bought lies of Trump, didn’t learn anything from the first term and all the people in government supporting him. This isn’t one man, it is millions, but millions more will suffer in the US and worldwide. Shameful.

No! Not really. One man AND the millions of gullible people he made angry enough to believe him and actually vote for him. He can't do it alone. He has lots of help!

Let us not DARE forget that fact even for one second! It’s all on him. He s already trying to cast the blame on anything else that could take it, well, HE FCKD EVERYTHING UP, period. I can’t imagine him running even a fast food restaurant, let alone a country, let alone the largest economy.

No, it's the fault of Trump & every last sycophantic member of the GOP who are carrying out his insanity. It's the fault of the MSM who sane-wash him. It's the fault of those who voted for him thinking other people would suffer, not themselves. It's those capitulating rather than show any courage.

Adam, we know it didn’t need to happen but it is what it is so let’s deal with it from here instead of looking back at the fact that we fucked up. We didn’t fight against voter suppression and all that bullshit in the south enough to make the real results of this last Election show up. Look forward

This is, his idiocy is necessary but not sufficient. He couldn’t have done it without the cowardice of the GOP controlled House and Senate. And some of the softening up with racism and misogyny of the early GOP.

No Adam! It's not the fault of one man. It's the fault of millions of greedy hateful people that support that one man. It's also the fault of one or more greedy hateful groups that prepare procedures for that one man to follow. Then he goes and cheats himself at golf.

I would argue the party shares a huge chunk of the blame! They've had multiple opportunities to shut this clown show down and were more concerned with their positions than doing what was clearly right!

No one man can inflict this much damage on his country and the world. Who are his advisors and enablers? Most of the blame can.be sheeted home to the Republican Party. In spite of his failings, his recklessness, and his vanity, they chose him and promoted him and inflicted him on us.

can.beCAN BE

America, a serious reminder: If Congressional Republicans did their jobs, Trump could be out of office by lunchtime tomorrow. They'd still control the White House, U.S. House and U.S. Senate, but maybe some mentally-stable grownups could at least keep us from complete annihilation.

On one of the network news programs last night, interviews with voters included an elderly MAGAt that acknowledged the huge drop in the stock market and how that adversely affected her 401K then proceeded to repeat Fox talking points verbatim "but tRump is right and knows what he's doing."

#Trumprecession was entirely avoidable and is an unforced error by one man… #DonaldTrump And #Trump asserting Sunday evening that he didn’t “intentionally engineer a market sell-off” is an admission of an IGNORANT BUFFOON. 👇 What else did Trump expect with his draconian Protectionist policies?

Who actually believes that Trump and his billionaires won’t buy low and sell high! They think that we just stupid! Looks like old MTG has availed herself of the old buy low theory already! I really despise these fkrs!

No it isn’t. It’s the fault of 45 years of GOP policy that he’s adopted since it suits his own needs. I appreciate you speaking out against trump, Adam, but you still haven’t given up the fantasy of what you THOUGHT the GOP was the past several decades. You need to admit you were duped by them too.

I won’t argue that as you’re probably right. Just giving the dude the benefit of the doubt as he appears to be on our side now. Or, you know, maybe he’s evolved over the past 12 years. Liz Cheney wouldn’t give the time of day. Her voting record speaks for itself and look who raised her.

One man and two political parties of elected officials that made this happen. Anyone with half a brain and some common sense knows the election was rigged. Trump said he didn’t need votes, the richest person in the world dumped $220MILLION into stealing it. EVERY ELECTED OFFICIAL IS AT FAULT! #14AS3

Two questions for Trump at his next news conference. 1. Do you want to destroy the world economy? 2. If not, what would you do differently if you decide destroying the world economy is what you do want to do?

WRONG! The GOP chose him THREE times; they fought to get him into office THREE times. The GOP majority in Congress could stop him at any time but they won't. This is the fault of the REPUBLICAN PARTY and it didn't need to happen.

Bull. They’re all to blame. Gingrich, Cheney, Bush, Romney, McConnell, Murdoch, Musk, Andressen. Trump thinks he’s too big to fail, to the extent he hates the democrats it’s because all those jerks told him to blame them, because they hate them too.
