The Venezuelan oil reserves are only shown as being so large, because Chavez monkeyed with the numbers to show it has the largest. It in fact, does not have the largest oil reserves in the world. And before you go Googling to prove me wrong, keep in mind that those figures rely on data reported by the countries, not from oil exploration companies.

And I've said this many times before, it shouldn't be surprising that a man who bankrupted THREE CASINOS would know how to handle the US economy.

All I can say is that the orange conman isn’t the brightest crayon in the box. He doesn’t understand economics and he sure as hell doesn’t understand tariffs. He’s an idiot!

One of Donnie’s professors at UPENN called him “the dumbest goddamed student I ever had “.

The reply should have been, “How dumb was(is) he?

Skitealwedrop's avatar

I believe it. And to think he’s in charge of our government. SMFH

Stephen Brady's avatar

He is nothing so much as a NY mob boss. And, certainly not a very smart one.

Skitealwedrop's avatar

He isn’t smart enough to be a mob boss. He’s a wanna be mob boss. He’d be whacked in the first week.

Math doesn't math for orange man down. In fact, they aren't acquainted. Just like his concept of a plan yo buy Greenland 🇬🇱 🙄

He thinks you can reduce drug prices by 1200%. He definitely doesn't understand even basic math. A true idiot

Skitealwedrop's avatar

The idiot can’t buy something that isn’t for sale.

You may be right. And the oil is too muddy to be processed by US refineries.

High amounts of sulfur. It Is actually toxic.

We don’t see the O&G Executives investing in the infrastructure to drill for sludge in a dictatorship.

STRAIGHT FACTS!!👍🏾👍🏾

I don't think you can make a 79 year old man and his brainwashed sycophants ever see the light. And I'm an optimist.

James K's avatar

A 79 year old man with dementia. Steven Miller is acting President. Trump named Marco(I go wherever the wind blows) Rubio Viceroy of Greenland. Viceroys are appointed by Kings.

A posting today on BlueSky argued that 47 must be central for attention but if it were to be transferred to Stephen Miller and Russell Vought, Trump would get so irate he'd fire them and bring attention back to himself. Would their removal bring threat of fascism to an abrupt end since 47 is their tool.

James K's avatar

I don't think so but it's possible.

The American people are being slowly bled while attention is constantly diverted elsewhere. If there’s going to be accountability, it requires focus—not distractions. The Epstein files are the clearest path forward. So why has nothing more been released? What’s the delay?

MARY O's avatar

Please talk about Sasha Riley’s interview and story of his abuse and child trafficking by Trump, Epstein and government officials.

Sky Blue's avatar

ALL because the maga GOP PEDOPHILE PROTECTORS don't want to release ALL the epstein files because trump IS a PEDOPHILE!!!

VOTE ALL maga PEDOPHILE PROTECTORS OUT!!! And VOTE OUT ALL who support them!!

VOTE IN people who ACTUALLY CARE about AMERICA and AMERICAN CHILDREN!!!

The republicans are the only people in this country that can rein him in! As far as I’m concerned, they are responsible for EVERYTHING he is doing ruining this country. We need to be shouting this from the rooftops. They’re spineless!🤬

Heather Olivier's avatar

YES he does. Get him GONE people!!

That’s what happens when you elect a washed up playboy wanna be as president to run the greatest country ever. He was promoted to the level of his incompetency.

The question now is— how do we get him out. People are hungry, cold, depressed, broke. It’s all about money and power.

How do we get him out? What would make him happy enough to leave? For some reason our trusted congress doesn’t want to do their job. Lord knows he’s given them enough reason to impeach him again.

My actual cousin (unfortunately) is JD Vance. JD wants to be President. He's smart enough to know he can't win the election. But with enough promises to the Secretaries he may be able to force the 25th Amendment. Then we'll have a President with the same agenda, but not stupid. Did I mention I'm an optimist?

James K's avatar

JD is a Yale Law School graduate.

Earline Bean's avatar

I have heard him speak on the T V and he is powerful. I don’t like this agenda. I am a Democrat and think we should help people rather than take from them and give to the rich. Also they are trying to make themselves king and that is not acceptable.

Did you read the piece about John Kennedy said no one should have so much money. It was in Substack. I really like that publication as well as Raw Story.

Also it is extremely unsettling that Musk has an order for one million armed robots. What are they preparing for?

I don’t know what your expertise is. I strongly suggest you give him a run for his money. He gets all the good contracts, it seems He needs competition.

James K's avatar

I wouldn't put much faith in the story about the million robots. Sounds to me more likely to be someone spreading a conspiracy theory. Where did you read or hear that? When I ask someone Why do you believe that is true?" The most common answers are:

1) I read it on the Internet.

2) A friend told me. Where did your friend find this? On the Internet or a friend told him.

If a story sounds suspicious it needs to be researched on sites that end in .edu or .gov or Wikipedia. When you use Wikipedia go to the bottom and check the original source.

As far as my skills and qualifications, I'll post that as soon as it takes me to write it up. It's a long list.

And if he can manoeuvre the Fed Reserve from its current apolitical stance, things will get worse. There is a perverse side of me that wants MAGA supporters to reap what they have sown.

James K's avatar

They will just blame it on Biden.

Thanks! For the Eye Opening Information! Great Job!

Thank you for the article, Kansas has dismissed its grocery tax all except for Walmart. Governor Kelly gave her state of the union address, day before yesterday, she is quite the progressive. She got education reinstated, mental health facilities, reopened, that really helps people. They are working on a bipartisan plan to keep cell phones away from children, because of phonographic sites. Her speech was about being civility, to one another, and try to work together. Tuxedo Man says hello. Patches is still a diva she is in love Waj. 😂 😂! I tell her , that he is married. Please subscribe to The Good in US, by Mary Trump. She like everyone else is cat, friendly. Even dog friendly.

Affirmative! DJT wants to rule the world! Mr Putin & Xi JinPing be warned!

James K's avatar

I somewhat disagree. According to his Donroe Doctrine he gets North and South America, Putin gets Europe, and China gets Asia.

Jane Burton's avatar

LOL! You could be right! Time will tell!

Life was good under Biden. He worked to help the American people.

Mary, Donald is a complete ignoramus not only of economics, but of anything related to science, technology, medicine and anything else that benefits human and all other life. He is a sinister being without redeeming qualities, and a scourge upon the planet. It is inconceivable to me that the Nobel Prize winner should wish to share her prize with this monster. The gene which carried the

blueprint for your great uncle John's and your scientific acumen was absent in demented Donald.

We who are in his sway must rise to debunk him, else to have future generations struggling for air.

Lake Maracaibo crude has high concentrations of H2S which means most of the infrastructure will likely need replacing. Not cheap.
