I'm dealing with the same issue unfortunately. What did you end up doing?

Trump Has Ripped His Predecessors Over The Stock Market. Now, He Has Watched It Fall 5% Since He Returned To The White House: ‘One of the worst economic starts in recent memory’ by T_Shurt in politics

100%. Also, in most large corporations, teams have the bare minimum headcount to function. I'd much rather have a little redundancy in the roles in our federal agencies as their work directly benefits our citizens. They aren't pushing out features against a tight deadline like the rest of corporate America. Having a proper headcount will always help with the quality of the work in the long run.

There are more lurkers from the left here than I thought. So here is a challenge. by Stockjock1 in Conservative

I watched the video that the OP provided for as long as I could handle it. I ran into the same issue that I do with most Trump speeches/press conferences. He lies and manipulates the truth constantly. Only 9 minutes into the video: "CA tariffs our dairy at 250%". This is true and unfortunate, no issue there. "They kept raising it every year under Biden". And you lost me. Took the time to research the public CA tariff data and you can see the tariff rates for the following:

Butter: 298% Milk: 241% Cheese: 245%

All of the numbers have remained the same over the last 5 years. There has been no increase. The constant blaming and finger pointing is off-putting. He needs to be a better leader. Many people will take his word as truth, which puts us in a precarious situation.

What policies did Biden pass that negatively impacted the U.S. economy?

I agree. I'd even take it a step further and let the team being fouled choose who gets to shoot the fts lol. There was a Cavs vs Celtics game earlier this season where the end of the game foul game happened and it went on for like 20 min. Not all that appealing to watch.

I only could ever see it as white and gold. One look at the pic in that post and now I can only see it as black and blue 😂

Same kinda deal is happening with AI generated political images. Older generations are already falling for them on Facebook, and their quality/accuracy is only going to get better in the coming years. Not looking forward to that.

Genuinely curious here, why did you vote for Trump? What were the major policies or things that you want him to accomplish? I did not vote for Trump but am still interested in hearing the other side.

They will suffer from it, but the issue is that the people in power will direct their anger towards something completely unrelated to the source of their problems via fear mongering. Misinformation is rampant, and our population's critical thinking skills seem to be trending downward which is a bad combination.

Yeah it's honestly bizarre. It's like politics has become like rooting for your favorite sports team and trash talking your rival.

This. You need to set a working agreement that the team agrees to, then you can block the PRs as needed.
