WDDDDT?: #47: THE ERROR #2: TARIFFS ARE GOOD BUSINESS

Dateline: February 26-28: The White House (Posted 3/31/25)

How much are you willing to pay for a car made in Europe or Asia?

How much do you trust a non-elected advisory who has a room in the White House?

DAY 38: 2/26/25: #47 held his first full cabinet meeting of Error #2. Invited to attend even though he is not an “official cabinet member”, Elon Musk dressed in storm trooper black, spoke to the crowd of ass kissing idiots (The Cabinet) singing the praises of his newest venture to strip the government of its workers and funding, saving us taxpayers billions of dollars. Yet, since day #1 egg prices continue to soar. Secondly, at the meeting #47 was willing to add a 25% tariff  on goods from the European Union. The “former reality TV host” announced that Zelensky would be visiting the US to sign a mineral deal which basically strips the Ukraine of its ore as repayment for the aid she has received from the US in the war against Russia. Later in the day there was a statement saying transgender service members would be separated from the US military unless they receive an exemption.

DAY 40: 2/28/25: Lo and behold, President Zelensky, inappropriately attired according to some but in the same vain as Musk, was met with scorn, distrust, and had out and out lies spewed at his while on live media coverage. The poor man who left his war torn nation, one facing physical abuses daily had verbal abuses tossed his way. The ever gracious leader of the Ukraine was gang raped by JD Vance (or whatever his new name is) and our notorious leader who said, President Z was “gambling with world war three” and told the Ukrainian president to come back “when he is ready for peace”. Our guy #47 then calmly left for his usual very expensive golf weekend at Mar Shit Hole.

FYI: As of November 29, 2019, the US government spent $115 million dollars ($115,000,000.00) on 226 trips to Mar A Largo for 108 rounds of golf. THE GOLF NEWS reported $550,000.00 was spent on third party golf cart rentals and at least $500,000.00 in overnight stays at TRUMP OWNED PROPERTIES for the Secret Service members protecting #45. The COAST GUARD cutter stationed off the shore in Florida is probably gratis. Overall, the cost totals well over 287 years of PRESIDENTIAL SALARY. But, he “donates” his $400,000.00. The totals were even higher, coming in at $142 MILLION with $59 MILLION spent on trips to MAR-A-LARGO via Air Force One. THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION owns and operates 17 different courses.And no one saw this as a conflict of interest.

January 20, 2021, the last day for #45, he had visited one of HIS golf courses (AKA “adult day care center”) 308 times and has recorded playing at least 150 rounds of golf for a total of 2655:47 hours spent hitting the little ball .Twenty-two (22) percent of his days in office were spent at ONE OF HIS RESORTS.

 The Road of #47: UKRAINE: Talking Points


Date line: 2/20/25: THE WHITE HOUSE


   The insulting, condescending bully has returned…#47 has directed Secretary of State Marco Rubio, you remember him aka “Little Marco”, to initiate “peace” talks for the Ukraine with Russia… without any representation from Kiev or any nation from Europe. Our fearless leader has stated that not only did Ukraine start (provoke) the war but the Ukrainian president “is very low in Ukrainian Polls” and is “a Dictator without Elections”. All mistruths or as my Mama would say, “out and out lies”.

   Facts are Ukraine did not provoke the attacks of February 2022, nor is Zelensky a “dictator”. He is a duly elected official who in a state of martial law (caused by the invasion) has not faced re-election.  His approval rating is at 57% far superior than our guy. Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) after visiting Kyiv with Democrat counterparts stated “Zelensky is frustrated, but he’s also been the right head of state for the time. He’s kept a nation together focused on Russian occupiers, and I think we should give them a fair amount of credit for that work.”

  For the past eight years #47’s idol Russian Czar Putin has shown aggression toward the Ukraine. Putin has denied UKRAINE’s sovereignty, stated Ukrainians were Russians who needed to be brought back. Since the ouster of President Viktor Yanukovych (2014), an ally of Russia, Putin claimed the government of Ukraine was “illegitimate” and that  Ukraine was poised “to join NATO and have NATO missiles placed in Ukraine and aimed at Russia”.In 2023, Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev echoed Putin’s stance, saying Ukraine is a part of Russia, but “we live in different apartments”.

   So where do we, The USA stand today. #47 offered a deal to “share (half) in the rare earths” found in Ukrainian soils with no security guarantees. That was not even a good starting point toward peace.

   Then last week (2/12) Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth suggested to other international leaders that Ukraine could not hope to regain the territory Russia had illegally occupied since 2014, nor join Nato.To hit the note harder good old Pete said the US would not contribute to any peacekeeping force in Ukraine in the event of a peace deal.

   Meanwhile today, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy met the U.S. envoy for the war in Ukraine Keith Kellogg, but their following joint news conference was cancelled at the U.S.'s request. My guess it didn’t go to well for us.

   Mike Pence posted on February 19 on X, “Mr President, Ukraine did not ‘start’ this war. Russia launched an unprovoked and brutal invasion claiming hundreds of thousands of lives. The Road to Peace must be built on the Truth.”

   Nikki Haley commented about #47 remarks as “classic Russian talking points” and “exactly what Putin wants.” 

  Where do we go from here? #47 vowed to “end the war Day one” or before…yet here it is…
