Since Trump loves them and wants to do things similar. You obviously bought into lies. Trump wants to deport millions including legal citizens, censor the media while nationalizing it, send the military into blue cities, end social security, end medicare, end student loan forgiveness, jail his political rivals, glass gaza, feed NATO to Russia, raise taxes on the poor while lowering them on the rich, tariffs causing mass inflation and layoffs. But yeah, he is just a little offensive. :roll: Wake up, you will soon.
:rofl: Someone please nuke the democratic party. Holy shit.

Trump has stated that he desires to end Federal Reserve independency and take a more direct hand in their affairs, probably for that exact reason.

I should raise chickens myself. I always thought about doing that.

I sometimes get free geese and duck eggs from my neighbor as her birds are constantly laying, often on my family's property, and she don't want to deal with them.

Trump probably knows what $20 eggs will do to his control of Congress in 2026, so I doubt he's going to fight back too hard.

You know why those things didn’t happen? Because WE the American People defeated them at the courts and at the ballot box. That is the Democratic model and that is what they want to implement, and what they would be implementing right now if we didn’t defeat them.

I actually prefer duck over chicken and actively trade with a neighbor a few doors down who has them who needs traditional eggs for her cooking. Works out well for the both of us.

I was reading the link above and I was wondering, how does trump expect the US dollar to remain the reserve currency of the world with a high tariff rate? That Tarif rate will, by its very nature, lead to less us dollars leaving the country, making it inherently less valuable internationally as less and less people need to use it.

Ohh Duck eggs are pretty great, I was super skeptical at first, but they are amazing.

That affords the treasury the opportunity to take money out of circulation to preserve value and maybe get some back lost due to overprinting.
