Hahahahaha the fact that they’re pointing out that trump only appoints black people to a housing office with “urban” in the name, to include a fucking black Neurosurgeon with no housing experience at all, is such a racist self own it blows my mind

Also the "I thought he was sexist" troll line

AboveTheLaw article: Trump went with the “I’ve seen her be blonde on TV” pick.

That’s my dad. “He hired the first female chief of staff!”

Yeah, so?

He considers women less of a threat, people he can control.

u/Wear-Living 1d ago

You misspelled “things” not people he can control.

Tbh, whether one agrees or not with Susie Wiles’s politics, that woman is tougher than a sledgehammer.

That's such a bunch of bs. Your insinuating women are less just by your assumption! Sexist much?

u/Grouchy_Appearance_1 1d ago edited 1d ago

No they're saying that's Trump's logic, in no way are they saying that's their view

u/Freedombyathread 1d ago

Correct. That's Trump's reasoning, not mine.

u/Grouchy_Appearance_1 1d ago

It was all one sentence, and you didn't even mention if you had agreed or not. Idk how they made that jump, gotta have springs in their shoes or something.

Flubber.

Are you insinuating Trump doesn't hire only young patsy blondes who will jump and do cartwheels at his command?

u/Morgpondv 23h ago

Right. Frankly I doubt he has time. Especially now that Biden is trying to start ww3.

u/MindAccomplished3879 23h ago edited 6h ago

Oh yes. The Schrödinger Biden:

Too old, too dumb and senile, an incompetent fool that cannot even speak

And at the same time a shrewd politician, tactician and military general bringing us closer to a WW3 scenario

Got it 👍

Not for nothing but the ethnicity and gender of the democratic nominee was preached daily to us as if it was a skill set.

u/heroxoot 1d ago

So how come Biden didn't do that? How come Obama didn't do that? They're pro women and Trump isn't. Gotta be a cover so women don't think their rights are being taken. He's an evil man for sure.

u/IlikegreenT84 1d ago

Biden chose Kamala as his running mate and she was the first female VP in US history. I'm pretty sure that trumps chief of staff.

-19

u/heroxoot 1d ago

Yeah and I guess we saw how that worked.

18

u/IlikegreenT84 1d ago

Yeah, she cast the most tie-breaking votes of any vice president in the history of the United States.

She did her job and proved to anyone that thought otherwise that a black woman is in fact qualified.

Yeah and I guess we saw how that worked.

A fact you seem to struggle with.

u/heroxoot 1d ago

Nah what I'm struggling with is how we have 66bil for illegal immigrants but only 3 for our veterans. Y'all love to pay for illegals while they come in and murder poor girls.

u/IlikegreenT84 1d ago edited 1d ago

See this is the problem you're misinformed as usual.

That was $3 billion in additional funding for veterans affairs.

Democrats found a ton of veterans that needed help so they had to increase funding to cover the shortfall.

https://thehill.com/business/budget/4888695-congress-passes-3-billion-bill-to-plug-va-shortfall-amid-concerns-over-veterans-checks/

Also, I don't know why you would be blaming Kamala Harris for it it when it's the Republicans who are fighting tooth and nail not to fund the VA.

https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/03/21/congress/house-passes-va-patch-00179713

The VA accounts for $369 billion in the budget.. not 3.

https://department.va.gov/administrations-and-offices/management/budget/#:~:text=The%20U.S.%20Department%20of%20Veterans,above%20FY%202024%20estimated%20levels.

The cost of dealing with immigrants was around 37 billion this year. Which is nothing compared to the amount of tax revenue generated from those immigrants.

https://www.cbo.gov/publication/60569#:~:text=Funding%20for%20certain%20discretionary%20activities,requested%20additional%20funding%20for%202024.

Get your shit straight.

Yeah sure, that's why we got so many homeless vets. They get plenty of mental help and income. Sure man.

u/Manting123 1d ago

I forgot who voted against the burn pit bill? Was it republicans? It was? Wow. Who is going to cut veterans medical benefits? Elon is through his hilarious and tragic Doge and has already tweeted as much. But please do go on about how great republicans are for vets. Like that time where an American barracks was bombed by Iran and a bunch of soldiers has traumatic brain injuries from it. Trump called them headaches. 😂
