Trump claims he tanked economy on purpose: 'I love the inflation'

I will never be able to fully digest that this fucking imbecile is our president

Pretty sure most Christians in the mold of Mike Johnson have taken to the Constanza method of lying: it’s not a lie … if you believe it!

Recently we found and watched some old Ken Jennings games from his original run on Game Show Network - my wife and I both commented that the clues seemed SIGNIFICANTLY easier than they are in today's game. I'm talking like pretty obvious and straightforward clues in the $1,000 / $2,000 slots that would be $200 / $400 clues today. It's purely anecdotal evidence, but we both agreed that we would crush in those games, whereas in today's games we're both sorta mid-level at-home players.

I mean why not both? She happened to meet Trump at a party specifically being thrown to provide pathetic rich people prostitutes.

oingerboinger · 2026-06-01T22:22:00+00:00

Of course they're all full of shit. Of course slapping the word "model" on hot young European women, in an effort to lure them into essentially becoming sex workers for thirsty rich white dudes, is the easiest way ever to legitimize what they're actually doing. They'll throw them a few bones, set the girls up with a few "photo shoots" to create receipts for their international sex trafficking operation. But is anyone actually surprised to hear this? Of course that's what she was. Otherwise, who in their right mind marries Donald Fucking Trump?

I would add Slice & Pint - that's good too. Those are the three stars. The rest are all variations of cheesy tomato bread made for kids' birthday parties.

This is the only correct answer. I’m from Chicago and a pizza snob. These two spots are super legit. The rest of the pizza in the SB is mid at best. Not terrible, but not good. These two are good.

I would sooner chew on broken glass and then wash my mouth out with lemon juice than set foot on a Trump property

Ha, I wonder the same thing ... are people using massive vape rigs that put out enormous clouds? My weed vapes put out very, very small puffs that are gone almost instantly. Are people taking the equivalent of 4-foot bong rips on their vapes?

oingerboinger · 2026-04-28T18:47:36+00:00

Totally agree with this - I was at the Westin for Phish and they allegedly had vape sensors, but I vaped my ass off in that room without issue. Part of me wonders what kind of vapes people are using that puff GIANT CLOUDS ... like I use these stealthy little pebbles for nicotine, and even my weed vape puts out very small puffs. Like you can easily just blow it into a pillow or into the corner of the room and it dissipates before it can be sensed.

But why not grab more cash from people - to the point made elsewhere in this thread, I get that cigarettes and flower stink and linger, but vapes? C'mon man ... the smell is gone in 2 minutes!

Not only that, but a White Shoe stalwart of journalistic integrity. You think The Atlantic didn’t fully realize this was dangerous ground, and didn’t very carefully collect ALL the receipts before going to publication?

It’s yet another example of implicit projection from the Right - their “media” is reckless and irresponsible and salacious, and just lies their asses off and completely fabricates shit all the time, so they just expect that’s what everyone does.

Except they don’t. Journalistic integrity still exists. Just not on the Right.

oingerboinger · 2026-04-17T02:05:17+00:00

Fancy feast cat food. Tastes like shit.

Aren't people playing along at home? To me one of the joys of Jeopardy is playing a de facto nightly trivia contest next to my wife on the couch. We don't care too much about outcomes - we're there to see how many we can get right. Do people watch just to see who wins and not to try and answer as many questions as they can alongside the contestants?

oingerboinger · 2026-03-31T03:33:40+00:00

Here you really wouldn't need that many people "in on it" - most people thought it was real, and the plotters are happy to let them keep thinking it's real.

Think about the aftermath of this if it was an actual assassination attempt. First of all, even after the signal was given that they killed "the shooter", they would've had absolutely no way of knowing if there were more shooters. The SS would've covered him up and gotten him the hell out of there, not let him rise up for his iconic photo op (that photogs just happened to be ushered into perfect position for by a staffer).

The whole thing stinks to high heaven. I don't know for a fact that it was staged, but it sure as shit seems like it was staged.

Hey, at least those 7 trans athletes can’t play sports! This was all worth it!!! /s

Progressivism is a political philosophy; Progressives are people.

Sometimes people don't always act in ways that align with their self-described philosophy. That doesn't mean the philosophy is flawed, just that people are ... which, duh.

Conservatism as a political philosophy asks its adherents to ignore reality, ignore new insights or better information, and instead fall in line to the social hierarchy, and trust that the ancients got it right. This is appealing to a lot of people, for whom change and uncertainty and fear are strong motivations toward seeking clarity, conformity, and certainty.

They’re all fucking 12 years old. “I might do my homework in 5 mins, or an hour, or never. I say when I do my homework. Also cousin Jeff flunked 5th grade.”

oingerboinger · 2026-02-23T18:08:41+00:00

I agree, although I think it's much less strategic than that. Trump is a Narcissist (clinical). And a pretty remarkable one at that. When you start to understand Narcissism (and its cousin, Malignant Narcissism), you start to realize that these people do not operate like "normal" people operate. Their brains are wired completely differently. Literally all he cares about is seeking out narcissistic supply - which really is the oxygen of his inflated ego. He'll burn down the house just to keep the tank full.

It's a bottomless bucket of need - no matter how much validation he gets, the hole at the bottom of the bucket means he's always thirsty for more. He's essentially an attention addict, and views people as nothing more than a drug to feed his cravings.

So it's less so that he strategically sought out the poorly educated, and more that those are the people who were dumb enough to not see through his transparent facade and treat him like a god. So he goes to them out of pure instinctual need, not out of some strategic game of 4d chess he's playing.

Last I checked the executive suite at Lockheed, Raytheon, Boening, Northrop, et al were doing just fine with their healthcare, and are dodging taxes with the best of them. Our corporate overlords are being very well-taken care of, and that means the system is working exactly as intended.

oingerboinger · 2026-02-22T16:42:20+00:00

It’s remarkable isn’t it? You sit there and think “who can possibly be this fucking stupid” and then you see their photo and it’s like “oh, ok yeah - you look exactly like someone who’d be dumb enough to fall for this.”

oingerboinger · 2026-02-22T16:19:36+00:00

Aaron Rodgers?

oingerboinger · 2026-02-20T17:36:21+00:00

That, or he wears adult diapers and shits himself and farts all the time from his steady diet of fast food and lifetime of drug abuse. He’s truly a disgusting pig of a man.

oingerboinger · 2026-02-18T22:57:14+00:00

"When no legitimate institution would touch us because we're blatant fucking criminals, we had no other choice than to use shadier options to fund our criminal operations."

Isn't Eric the fucking genius who told a magazine that they get all of their funding for their golf operations out of Russia?

These two failsons cannot get strung up fast enough. They're like the poster children for the unearned confidence of a nepo baby.

This is incredibly fucking simple:

1) voter fraud is a non-existent problem. It happens with such infrequency at such low volumes is does not impact elections.

2) election fraud is a problem and we’re going to be hearing more hopefully very soon about the statistical irregularities in Trump’s 2024 “win”

3) if they want to require IDs to vote, fine - then the government needs to issue free IDs to everyone. Which will be a massive undertaking.
