“In 2020, the U.S. economy experienced a record annualized growth of 33.1% in the third quarter due to a post-lockdown rebound, yet still contracted 3.5% for the full year.” This is the “year” Trump has “in mind.” A single quarter. Prior to that, 15% growth occurred in 1950, when Trump was four.

Tariffs are running at about $28 billion a month, or about $312 billion/yr, accdg to latest Treasury statement, published these days more or less at random. But the deficit is $2 trillion, and debt service this fiscal year will probably hit $1 trillion. You don’t get 15% growth out of such madness.

A couple of tweaks, and I believe the President’s lapidary analysis will snap into crystalline focus. By eliminating “all hockey in Canada,” a common consequence of most trade deals with China, “the Stanley Cup” will perforce be lost too. This trivial redundancy mars an otherwise brilliant post.

When you say “them,” you mean we need all the people who voted for Trump THREE TIMES? Of what possible use could such people be? They’re clearly morons and beyond redemption. Trump is only marginally worse now than in 2016.

Previous or later connection with Trump/Epstein.

Previous or later connection with Trump/Epstein.
“Then 20 year old” was not Melania. Born in ‘70 (so 23-26 in relevant period). Why “then 20?” Suggests earlier connection with Trump/Epstein. Subtract “Marla + kids” flights (sounds like more than 1, say 2). Minus one flight only T&E. Minus one flight T, E, 20 yr old. 4 flights left, all Maxwell.

To distinguish the 1898 Ark case.

To distinguish the 1898 Ark case.
The Ark case came down in 1898. That case was not squarely on point; both parents were legally in the country at the time of the plaintiff’s birth. However, parents were ineligible for citizenship because of Chinese Exclusion. This S. Ct is likely to distinguish Ark on basis above. Big surprise!
