    One (Trump) has charisma

    The other (Vance) just literally dropped the ncaa football trophy on the floor at the ceremony today

    Vance has no juice

    Vance seems like an actual extremist though, like a 4chan user or something

    Gotta be real with you guys. People need to stop comparing every minority in politics to Obama.

    Obama was a constitutional law professor at UChicago, first Black president at the Harvard Law Review, and went from the House -> Senate -> President without skipping a beat.

    Obama was unironically built different.

    AOC =/= Obama
    Booker =/= Obama
    Buttigieg =/= Obama
    Yang =/= Obama

    Etcetera etcetera. I know this is the Trump thread but I think it's too normalized to attribute Obama's wins to the Presidency and not the fact that he was just a more charismatic and politically savvy person than the people trying to emulate him.

    I'm not even trying to s*** on them either but a lot of people forget this guy was actually just overqualified for a job he didn't need to be that qualified for (George Santos was literally a member of the House. Bro lied on his CV. Obama did not need to do half the s*** he did to get the job)

    Lol yeah Obama is a top 10 orator in modern history none of the dems are coming close to his charisma or oration skills. Laughable to compare

    Yeah, as the spotlight on Congress/Senate gets bigger you realize that Obama is vastly overqualified for his job. There are soccer moms in the House of Reps. He was legit a generational candidate.

    At some point in here I had a convo with someone about "why would rich tech people align with trump even if their stock crashes" and just wanted to add something i found out about recently

    meta (facebook) is going through a court proceeding to decide if they monopolized social media or not, and may have to sell off instagram and whatsapp as a result

    thats a damn good reason to buddy up with whoever the president is, especially if its a corrupt one willing to ignore court orders or interfere with the process, a 10% stock crash is nothing compared to selling off two major parts of your business

    Saw Steve Bannon suggest that if Trump is able to run for a third term then Obama should run against him as well lmao

    Obviously an attempt to make people ok with Trump running for a third term

    I believe company execs won't even be negatively affected. Period. This whole thing is just another huge transfer of wealth, just like COVID.

    Even if the tariffs become "manageable", prices will never go down and companies will still raise them claiming the "tariffs", meanwhile companies will continue making more money than ever while peoples spending power continues to go down.

    This what the maga crowd fails to understand.

    Even if they could move all manufacturing to the US completely free, prices will never go down. You think a company is going to take lower profit out of the goodness of their heart?

    You could cut the cost to build a car by 90% and the brand is still going to announce a 5% price hike the following quarter.
