All Things Trump: The Return Of The King

Trump destroying ebay sellers that sell knock off parts to everything. They buy them in bulk from china, but not huge lots. The bookkeeping alone would mess up all the trade. Etsy also.

8/29: Trump just shut down the “de minimis” exemption.
That’s the rule that let anything under $800 into the U.S. duty-free. It kept small packages affordable, kept small businesses competitive, and kept families from being nickeled and dimed.
Now? Every box — gets hit with tariffs or flat fees up to $200.
Etsy stock down. eBay stock down. Sellers panicking. Postal systems in chaos.
It’s not “protecting American jobs.” It’s raising costs on the people who can’t fight back.

America now 2 classes

America is in the midst of a vast political realignment
— not entirely caused by Donald Trump, but certainly accelerated by him. And the biggest indicator of how someone will vote is now based on education. Went to a four-year college? You’re likely backing the Democrat. Skipped it? There’s the Republican lever.

These are some of the most important observations in a new report on the state of American politics ahead of the 2026 midterms from Doug Sosnik, a former senior adviser to President Bill Clinton and now at the Brunswick Group, a global advisory firm. Sosnik has become well known in Washington for his slide decks of political analysis, and this memo and slide deck lay bare the degree to which education polarization has reshaped American politics.

If you look at Trump’s job approval on issues, he’s underwater on everything, particularly way, way lower now on the economic ratings, on inflation, and even immigration now is underwater. So you would think that his total job approval, currently around 44 percent, would be lower.

The bottom line is based on historical standards, Trump and the Republicans should be headed to a really bad midterm election. But because of these changes in our politics, due to realignment based on education, they’ll be more insulated than they would have been in the past from a tsunami-type of midterm.

Catch of the day: RFK Jr is Rasputin to Trump's Nicholas.

Elsewhere, on trump's decline:
I'm wondering how obvious it would need to be. If he just sat there drooling and going "wubba wubba wubba wubba wubba..." most of MAGA would still claim there was nothing wrong with him.

Republican Rep. Mike Collins was caught on a hot mic at a recent GOP meeting in Georgia admitting that he believes Trump is in the Epstein files, adding that "we need to release" the files.

There’s no doubt what Trump was doing on Palm Island which means he’s in the Epstein files and was confirmed by GOP Collins. Bondi must release those files or face consequences! America knows the truth and Bondi is covering up evidence! She’s a scum bucket, low life, corrupt AG!!

Our president when we see Trump helicoptered out to Walter Reed.

Not only did he publish a memoir full of lies, JD Vance has the charisma of wet toilet paper and the work ethic of a slug. His ascension to the potential presidency is the perfect encapsulation of male privilege: there is never a world in which a woman with his subpar, absurdly mediocre persona could ever stumble upward to such unearned success.

[Svartalf]

given what has been done to VA budget in recent years, and worse in this year, I hope that walter reed is unfortunately unable to save him

Going to the Supreme Court

THEY RULED THE TARIFFS ILLEGAL.

Today, the U.S. Court of Appeals said what I’ve said from day one:

Trump’s Liberation Day tariffs were ILLEGAL.

This is a body blow.
The executive branch violated the law.
And we fucking won.

Thread incoming.
Stay loud. Stay upright. Stay ready.

[Svartalf]

well, the Nazgûl will MAKE it legal

Heh. There's a rumour this morning that Trump is dead.

Doubt it though.
