As previously noted, the US isn't very good at making products that other countries want to buy, which is where a lot of the problems started. No sign of that changing any time soon. 5508

The only consistent thread in his entire unhinged rant was the love & praise for Vladimir Putin. Zelensky has more courage & dignity in his little finger than every member of Trump's regime & fan club combined. 27184151648

Reposted by SamLarry the Cat @number10cat.bsky.social · 30/01/2025It is a tragedy that 67 people were killed last night in Washington DC when a plane and a helicopter collided. It is a travesty that the Trump administration has used a press conference when they should be reassuring people to instead imply that these deaths were caused by recruitment policies. 552045213
