Trump is overplaying his hand, IMO. Going after 2 law firms for things specifically related to him was probably pretty effective, but going after 6+ firms just encourages them to band together. Also, while some firms could have avoided pursuing Trump, it’s not practical to avoid any organization that Trump might like.
TL;DR: If I’m a law firm, at this point I’m thinking that it’s only a matter of time until Trump goes after me, so there’s no point in trying to avoid it.
Thank you daddy Trump for temporarily slowing down the financial disaster you caused. I barely even remember that the economic wars you started were completely unnecessary and counter-productive.
18/f/cali is a mindset, not a statement of fact.
I hate what’s happening but I enjoy the righteous schadenfreude.
I voted for the guy who said he would do all of this, but I didn’t think he’d do the parts that harm me.
Doing something like that might unify the silent opposition against Trump, giving them strength in numbers. Letting his allies break one by one means that the first several will be destroyed by Trump before the opposition gains enough momentum to work.
I’m downvoting you because nobody asked about silver
The amount of karma (points) on your comment and Lemmy account has decreased by one.
There are several reasons I may deem a comment to be unworthy of positive or neutral karma. These include, but are not limited to:
/s.No - not yet. But you should refrain from making comments like this in the future. Otherwise I will be forced to issue an additional downvote, which may put your commenting and posting privileges in jeopardy.
Sure, mistakes happen. But only in exceedingly rare circumstances will I undo a downvote. If you would like to issue an appeal, shoot me a private message explaining what I got wrong. I tend to respond to Lemmy PMs within several minutes. Do note, however, that over 99.9% of downvote appeals are rejected, and yours is likely no exception.
Accept the downvote and move on. But learn from this mistake: your behavior will not be tolerated on Lemmy. I will continue to issue downvotes until you improve your conduct. Remember: Lemmy is privilege, not a right.

It’s a Trump quote that people started using sarcastically.
He only got a small loan of a million dollars.
I forgot about that. It’s poetic.
We were paying people to create the bird flu?! Good thing DOGE got rid of that inefficiency.
She had a fake rural village built so she could cosplay as a peasant, though, so it’s not far off.
Just pick a random military general in the Middle East to assassinate.
As stupid as I think they are, I also feel sorry for them; they don’t realize they’re being used as pawns and will be hung out to dry as soon as it suites Musk and Trump.
The reason they’re so young and inexperienced is that everyone else realized the implications and refused for their own well-being. The fact that none of the DOGE leadership wants to be officially “in-charge” is a giant red flag.
Not if literally anyone other than a Republican is elected.
