Whats hurting Trump and will continue to hurt him is the abysmal job market, H1Bs and the jeet invasion. For many families, having their son/ daughter have to live at home because they can't get an entry level job after earning a college degree is an incessant reminder the economy is not doing well. No one in this situation gives a fuck about stock market gains until this trend reverses. It means seriously going to war with offshoring and not just in the manufactuing sector.

And no, you cannot dismiss this crisis with trite platitudes saying Susie or Bobby picked an art history major. The crisis and real and Trump ignores it at his own peril.

That's all true. The only good thing is inflation's fairly stead since biden left, at least relative to what it is then on a lot of thing. The job situation has been shit for 6 years+ now too. If you have a decent job you're probably going to be ok unless it's AI's going to nuke it, but starting or trying to get into anything sucks for sure.

It'd be easier if he didn't have politicians, judges, and their boot-licking horde of useful idiots actively sabotaging him at every turn of trying to remove these leeches. (Yeah, yeah, I know Indians are a separate thing, but you get the idea.)

The issue is, its now Trumps mess to deal with. When it was Biden it was easy to blame, but now, Orange Man is in charge and is staring down the barrel of the midterms. He has a few months at best for something to give before democrats start dogpiling on the issue.

I will say, democrats are not doing well on the issue either, because they need jeets to scam, buy votes, and replace Americans, but its easier to attack the incumbent for the current issues.
 
The average "Marxist" is literally a basic bitch Social Democrat LMAO, Marx is primarily a philosopher, not an Economist, if you think him being correct about the amount of Linen for a coat is the main point of Capital, you didnt actually read it.
Even if you view Marx as purely a philosopher, his philosophy is so out-of-touch with reality that according to certain Marxists, “real communism has never been done,” despite so many nations adopting it throughout the twentieth century. They keep moving goalposts, and justify doing so because Marxist theory is so broad that even Marxists can’t agree with each other on who has done “real communism.” The Communist Manifesto ends with this utopian idea that everyone will have equality, and because that ending hasn’t panned out, Marxists will claim that “it isn’t real communism.” Marx’s philosophy has to be based in some form of reality for it to work, and because it isn’t, it’s why any nation that has tried it has failed. (No, the Nordic countries don’t count. They have a mixed economy that recognizes the need for free markets, which is antithetical to Marxist thought).
 
i've already put my account and my dox on the line, massie will not win his primary, ed will win that primary easily.

you don't know what the fuck you are talkign about, i have people in his district, he is fuckign HATED in his district. lolbert faggots are not serious people and massie is fuckign HATED by his district now. he's polling around 20-25 percent. his likable/unlikeable is way way underwater.
Aren't the Lolberts starting to be really hated in Appalachia because of the drugs?

The crazy thing about marxists is they think the hive mind of Pluribus is the perfect forever final form of human evolution in every way. It ends up like this every time eventually once the revolutionary zeal wears off and it always does.

Homo Sovieticus (Latin for "Soviet Man") is a term for the archetype of the conformist, passive, and often cynical individual shaped by the totalitarian Soviet system, contrasting with the idealized "New Soviet Man"; it's a critical concept used by intellectuals like Alexander Zinoviev to describe behaviors like paternalism, lack of initiative, and cynicism that arose from Soviet life, often resurfacing in post-Soviet debates about societal transformation.

But like, what is the actual platform of the left that they can run on? Is it just going to be about ICE deporting illegals and orange man bad?

One thing is for sure, Trump needs to figure out a way to mobilize his voter base. I think the normie voter is a few election cycles behind the radicalized democrat voter, but even they have started to seem to understand that midterms are important.
