A pro Trump thread to balance the 154 anti Trump threads!

[Carpediemtoday]

Thought I’d be brave and start a pro-Trump thread for a change, after all, there are so many anti-Trump ones , we need some balance!
I even tried commenting on an anti-Trump thread today… and wow, just kept being told to go away, my comments were not well received. Honestly, I feel honoured to feel as if I have been officially deported, what an achievement!😂

So you agree with them rounding up 5 year olds and interring them in detention camps?

Does the level of cruelty being inflicted really not matter to you? If not “I feel sorry for you”

All that just to get cheaper rent in a small subsection of the good ole United States of 'America.

The current administration has wiped out healthcare for many and caused significant increases in healthcare costs for others so you might be saving a few dollars on rent but costing hundreds and thousands of dollars to try and stay alive. Healthcare costs aren't caused by immigrants theyre caused by greedy companies that trump supports.

Look at bezos cutting thousands of jobs after forking out millions of dollars for that epic cinematic croc of 'melania' . His billion dollar deals from the trump organisation werent enough to keep the wolf from the door..

So long as you aren't the one losing your job and healthcare, then youre a -ok . Doesn't care about immigrants or other Americans it seems. So much for American patriotism.

Trump promised checks and lower food prices that hasn't happened. Tourism has gone to pot. Allies have taken their business elsewhere. All the white he has filled his own pockets from the pockets of American citizens...suing the IRS anyone....it will go to a cancer charity...from the guy who raided a trump cancer charity.

Your position is crystal clear.

Very few citizens are getting caught up in this. The ones that are generally are protestors obstructing ICE agents OR have cases like the below:

Guy picked up at a worksite full of illegal workers, along with his illegal alien brother, turned out to be a citizen, but couldn’t speak English well enough to explain it.

Gee, how could that have happened?

And presumably this was the most sympathetic case that journalist could find.

By the way, where do you get this ‘transporting across state lines’ BS? They are federal agents, of course they can take detainees to federal detention centers.

Ringo definitely would have turned in the Frank family.

Asylum seekers were always supposed to be processed at detention centers.

Biden let them stay in the community while processing their cases, giving them work permits … obviously this was going to be a massive draw and millions flooded the border in just four years (actually more like three due to Covid)

That five-year-old’s family was from Ecuador. They have zero basis to stay. They were always going to have to be ‘rounded up’ and deported once their case fails.

Eugh 🤮

All that just to get cheaper rent in a small subsection of the good ole United States of 'America

Rents are going down in places like LA. Probably in Texas too because they are deporting the most. I don’t have figures on that tho

The current administration has wiped out healthcare for many and caused significant increases in healthcare costs for others so you might be saving a few dollars on rent but costing hundreds and thousands of dollars to try and stay alive

Illegal aliens use ER services and that increases costs and waiting time for locals. And who pays their bills? Citizens …

Healthcare costs aren't caused by immigrants theyre caused by greedy companies that trump supports

He literally just launched a website offering prescription drugs at huge discounts for cash buyers, circumventing the big insurers. They now are getting Zepbound for 300 dollars a month. Huge tbh

Bezos isn’t the CEO anymore. But Amazon made a stupid business decision—this isn’t why they let go thousands though. Big tech unfortunately overhired and now they have to cull jobs. It sucks, no lie there.

Still you should be aware that Bezos has nothing to do with Amazon and parties on his yacht all day with his new wife.

Trump promised checks and lower food prices that hasn't happened

Checks will lead to higher inflation so glad Trump was talked out of that one. But food prices have risen less than inflation. And gas prices are lower

Tourism has gone to pot

Don’t care. Don’t go to America if it bothers you. We have enough domestic tourism as is, we aren’t even built for overseas travelers because of our car dependency (not a good thing, but it’s just the reality of things)

What are we supposed to do once that family’s asylum claims are rejected?

Not round them up and deport them?

I hope your policy isn’t ’it’s okay to deport failed asylum seekers, unless they have kids’

I honestly don’t have words for how disgusting your views are. These are human beings you’re talking about. Legal or illegal (and as Billie Eilish said you can’t be illegal on stolen land) they are human beings with family, loved ones, wishes and dreams. All of which ICE are stripping from them in the most traumatising way.

Never mind turning the Frank family in (as referenced upthread), Ringo would be front and centre doing the arresting.

So you've just made that up?

1. For his own gain 😂
2. They are cheaper on other websites

I'm alright Jack. Not to worry about those who rely on tourism.

You are so blinkered in your attitude. What a sad little individual.

Ringo Would have rented them a property first

We have been through this. Either yourself or Gloriia.

No evidence that reduced rents are because of migrants. The evidence points to a Biden policy of building. More new build apartments came on the market tail end of Bidens term than any time since the 80s. It was a Biden policy to bring rents down, and that is what happened.

I fully support balanced arguments and a pro Trump thread which highlights the positives from his time in office is to be applauded. Please can someone start one when he manages to achieve something positive

But presumptive that assume that something positive could possibly come from this shit show 😂

If you read the info on trumps 'cheaper' medications its only better if you can pay upfront. Also worth saying its called trumprx...so somehow, somewhere he is financially benefitting from it. Backhsnfers from the companies??? One medication ..only 300 dollars bit fucked if you need 2 or 3 meds then.

To say bezos is not still heavily involved in Amazon as the main stock holder , sucking up to the pedo pres is laughable.

As already stated other factors influencing rental prices.

You are conveniently ignorning the billions of dollars that immigrants bring into the economy with no reciprocal benefits.

You dont appear to have too much issue with the immigrant in the white house though...or are ice going to chuck her and her offspring out too?

You're making it a very easy decision to not spend my time or money in the usa if you are representative of the people.

Enjoy you close alliances with Israel and Puting im sure that will all work out well for you.

These are human beings you’re talking about. Legal or illegal (and as Billie Eilish said you can’t be illegal on stolen land

Are you saying America shouldn’t exist now? Why should anyone listen to that argument?

LA Times reported that deportations were partly responsible for lower rents. I had posted that article.

Funny that increasing demand increases rent; reducing that demand (through deportations) in fact lowers rents

The LA Times firmly drew attention to the jump in construction. More than 15,000 new homes on the market - up 18%.

Thats how cash payment works. Whenever I’m in the states and need medical care, I pay in cash, it often works out cheaper (though I have emergency care insurance for obvious reasons)

Ok but you were completely unaware that he is not the CEO and holds less than 10% of the stock. So maybe sit this one out.

No benefits except emergency medical care and free schooling for their kids, SNAP benefits if they are on TPS or refugee status. Then they send billions in remittances to their home country anyway.

Hmmm? Who are you referring to?

Sure that’s part of it but not the whole story, you missed the second part lol. There’s always going to be multiple factors. One of which is deportations.

In 2025, Los Angeles saw an 18% increase in newly completed multifamily units—15,095 in total—according to CoStar data. At the same time, the county’s population shrank by about 28,000, pushing vacancy rates up to 5.3% last month, the highest since April 2021

And -

“This year, anxiety over the federal government and a wavering stock market is making people less secure in their finances, leading some tenants to move in with family or friends — leaving studio and one-bedroom apartments empty.”

Without immigration, America (or more properly the USA: the continent called America includes a whole lot of places like Mexico and Ecuador) most certainly would not exist in the form you know it, RingoJuice.

Such a shame your ancestors weren't deported back to whichever "shithole country" (to quote your idol Trump) they came from. Then you could concentrate on being a bigoted I'm-alright-Jack pita there – assuming they survived whatever it was they were running away from.

So you don't live in America then?

Depends whether you believe anything RJ claims, really.
