Everyday More Losing...

"Credit card delinquencies rose in Q1 2026, to 13.1%, the highest since Q4 2010."
(This is only slightly below the 2010 peak of 13.7%, in the aftermath of the 2008 Financial Crisis.)

"Also, student loan 90+ day delinquencies jumped in Q1 2026, to 10.3%, the highest since 2020. (Covid)"

"Auto loan delinquencies rose to 5.6%, the highest on record."

US consumers are falling behind at a crisis pace.

Lastly Trump added $2.25 trillion to the national debt in his first year back in charge.
The total national debt has grown by $71,884.09 per second for the past year.
Interest payments now claim over 13% of the federal budget.

When does the winning start??

Depends on whose winning you're talking about.

Trump's corruption gets more brazen every day. His latest is stunning. Paying himself 1.7 billion dollars of taxpayer money. He's an utter failure as a POTUS, but a stunning success as the Grifter-in-Chief.

Indeed. In terms of stripping ever more money from the Proles, while enriching himself, he is without parallel.

Supposedly, all these trades were done by the Trump Organization, without any input from Trump the God Awful, while Trump is meeting with the CEOs and making decisions that impact the companies

Trump traded over $50 million in 'Magnificent 7' stocks last quarter, loading up on Apple and Google and selling Tesla

President Trump made 94 different trades of “Magnificent Seven” stocks in the first quarter of 2026, a new ethics disclosure shows, executing millions of dollars in transactions even as he was meeting with and often promoting these top tech companies.

The trades were valued at between $50 million and $70 million across 64 buy orders and 30 stock sales.

I am resigned to Trump being "President for life". But, after that, how can any future POTUS be told he can't be as corrupt as Trump?
