Just a reminder, populism is not conservatism.

I just mentioned the same thing to someone else. This is how a DNC Convention goes, not an RNC one.

This is how a Convention with a Democrat as the candidate goes.

Trump has also supported weakening the US dollar

Good news for US consumers which will help make imports more expensive

Bad news for US consumers who will see their standard of living go down.

Totally unrelated to any issues brought up, but does anyone know when was the last time we had a President or Vice President with a beard?

I’ve seen that

Lina Khan is the best representative for Bidenomics. She’s also the poster child for government incompetence, and mismanagement


So the GOP ticket is nothing more than a watered down version of Bidenomics…. :thud: :thud:

What in the hell was Trump thinking when he made this awful pick?

Why should you give a damn?  You weren't voting for the ticket if Jesus H. Christ was the VP.

That's because JD Vance loves Democrat economic policies.

J.D. Vance
@JDVance1

Just overwhelmed with gratitude.

What an honor it is to run alongside President Donald J. Trump. He delivered peace and prosperity once, and with your help, he'll do it again.

Onward to victory!

Project much?  Let me help you out.  Fiscal Conservatives were looking for something - heck, anything that indicated any aspect of Conservative economic policy.  And that hope was snuffed out the moment J.D. Vance was selected as the ticket's VP.

Btw, Vance voted for Evan McMullin in 2016.

Jesus Christ would not be Tumpy's VP. Jesus Christ is KING of Kings. That means Tumpy bows to HIM.

That the Teamsters are embracing Vance should tell people everything they need to know about him.  Huge red flag!  Trump would have been better off with Haley, and that's saying something.

Yes, Teamsters traditionally are thugs, if that helps you.

In my area, it's the steelworkers who have abandoned the Democrat party that destroyed their jobs.

The teamsters are still thugs.

Free markets and free trade lift more people out of poverty than any type of central planning or protectionism

Somehow, we’ve gotten the idea in this country that everything should be equal. Some think because free markets and free trade doesn’t bring about 100% equalization in the economy , well, then that means they don’t work. Of course, there are jobs that do get negatively impacted by free trade. But more people and businesses are harmed with protectionist trade policies.

The Americans steel industry may reap some benefits from protectionism. But everybody else is harmed by them

It’s the same with free markets. Not everybody does well in a free market economy. But more people than not benefit


And that’s why, like socialism, MAGAism/populism doesn’t work


Things changed for the better for the Swedish people when they abandoned their socialism and you will see the same thing over time for the people of Argentina


Hopefully the same thing will happen one day to the people of Cuba and Venezuela, and God willing, the poor people of North Korea
