    Make Illness Great Again!

     

    AP -
    Trump's Agriculture Department will not require poultry companies to limit salmonella bacteria in their products to safer levels, halting a Biden Administration effort to prevent food poisoning from contaminated meat.

    Biden's rule would have required poultry companies to keep levels of salmonella bacteria under a certain threshold and test for the presence of six strains most associated with illness.

    an_light Biden's plan aimed to reduce an estimated 125,000 salmonella infections from chicken and 43,000 from turkey each year, according to USDA.  But trump just nixed the whole deal...


    Overall, salmonella causes 1.35 million infections a year, most through food, and about 420 deaths, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

    an_speak    Poll:  A growing majority says
    Trump has made the economy worse,
    with most skeptical of his tariff plans

    CNN —

    A 59% majority of the public now says President Donald Trump’s policies have worsened economic conditions in the country, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS, up from 51% in March and on par with the worst numbers Joe Biden saw during his presidency.an_speechless

     

    Americans remain broadly unhappy with the nation’s economy. With the impact of new tariffs still largely to come, 6 in 10 already say that Trump’s policies have increased the cost of living in their community. angry

    Oh yeah, US 1st quarter GDP shrank 0.3%, Trump blames Pres. Biden earlier today.

    Earlier today, Trump also blames Pres. Biden for the stock market drop since Trump's inauguration. 

    Trump just keeps blaming Pres. Biden for the negatives, mess and chaos under his governing. Running the country is just that easy for Trump? No wonder Trump has the worst polling number in first 100 days in all time.

     Fubah's predictions:

     

    Despite the undeniable chaos the RACIST/CONVICTED FELON has caused over his first 100 days of round 2, both here and around the world, the "Don" of the Trump Crime Family and exalted Führer of the GOP - he will find a way in the next few months to save face and avoid making everything worse than it already is.

    TEFLON DON.

    He will yield somewhat to pressure from aides and either,
    a) vastly reduce (or drop) his stupid tariffs on all but China,
    or
    b) flip-flop ONCE AGAIN and extend his current 90 day pause even further.

    Short of dragging America into a "boots-on-ground" war to rally sympathy for him has a supposed "strong leader" - a) or b) is his only realistic option to avoid an epic disaster to our nation.
    b) seems most likely, imo, as it allows him to proclaim "benevolence" - even though it would just be round 2 of allowing more time to extort other countries to bend a knee to his self-perceived greatness.

    What he is extremely UNLIKELY to do is end his 90 day pause in early July and allow the enforcement of his new tariffs - while then leaving them in place at least through the Christmas season.
    WON'T HAPPEN.
    He does that and it is a BLUE WAVE in the midterms!

    an_lightInstead, aides will convince him to take an escape route at some point before September, declare THAT to be total victory - and falsely blame Joe Biden/all Democrats for everything.

     Fubah's predictions:

     

    Despite the undeniable chaos the RACIST/CONVICTED FELON has caused over his first 100 days of round 2, both here and around the world, the "Don" of the Trump Crime Family and exalted Führer of the GOP - he will find a way in the next few months to save face and avoid making everything worse than it already is.

    TEFLON DON.

    He will yield somewhat to pressure from aides and either,
    a) vastly reduce (or drop) his stupid tariffs on all but China,
    or
    b) flip-flop ONCE AGAIN and extend his current 90 day pause even further.

    Short of dragging America into a "boots-on-ground" war to rally sympathy for him has a supposed "strong leader" - a) or b) is his only realistic option to avoid an epic disaster to our nation.
    b) seems most likely, imo, as it allows him to proclaim "benevolence" - even though it would just be round 2 of allowing more time to extort other countries to bend a knee to his self-perceived greatness.

    What he is extremely UNLIKELY to do is end his 90 day pause in early July and allow the enforcement of his new tariffs - while then leaving them in place at least through the Christmas season.
    WON'T HAPPEN.

    In this case, highly likely Republicans will retain their majority on both chambers in the Congress in the next midterm. 

    Ideology is so much deeply glued to how voters react in the ballot booth. Quite of a few voters cast their ideology against basic necessities. 

    Majority of voters thought Trump was the better choice over Pres. Biden and VP Harris in last November. They might listen to Trump and blame Biden and Dems for everything. They might cast the same decisions in the next midterm, hope I'm wrong with this, Fubah.

    @Europa

     You are absolutely right, Europa. 

    So *IF* trump relaxes the stupid tariffs as his aides will strongly advise, he will declare victory, our growth and inflation will soon after stabilize and TEFLON DON will escape any real consequences.

    IF he does this "tariff-flip-flop" as I expect he will, it will go just as you and I predict - it would save his MAGA Reich from disaster in the 2026 midterms......... which is why I KNOW he will do it..... as I predict.....and if I could bet on it, I have $30k I am saving to bet....

    Washington CNN —

    America’s long-resilient job market continues to defy expectations — even in the wake of swirling uncertainty.

    Meanwhile, the unemployment rate was unchanged at 4.2%.
    April’s jobs report marks another solid month of employment gains and a continuation of a historic expansion of the labor market, but that’s on the backdrop of growing recession fears.

    Since staging a stunning recovery [under President Biden] from the pandemic [under trump], the labor market has been a pillar of strength for the economy. It remains to be seen if that will persist amid the historically high level of uncertainty sowed by President Donald Trump’s policies.

    Problem is Trump asserting authority which he doesn:t have. Illegal for presidents to block funding approved by congress.  In first term, he was impeached for withho!ding military aid to Ukraine. War against truth and control of media are among characteristics of fascism.

    @fubah2

    I was very much surprised over Trump winning the popular votes in the last election, perhaps many of those voters desperately wanted changes. But does the Trump's selection really fit into their interests? Maybe not, Fubah. Last year, I thought the independents, women and minorities would win Kamala Harris a presidency but I was wrong.

    Now we have a one party takes all country here, will Dems be able to flip this thing? Next midterm is still one and half years away, and there is no guaranty Dems can retake even one chamber of Congress.

    No other politician lies as much as Trump.  In first term, Washington post tracker recorded over 3000 of his  lies.  Fox news dominate as the main propaganda source for MAGA republicans.  Rare for a media company to lose defamation lawsuit.  But constant misinformation from Fox news resulted in huge loss against Dominion voting machine.    Nonpartisan PBS and NPR have long been rated among the most trustworthy news sources.
