Trump Enslavement Syndrome - Orange man good. /r/The_Donald and any public demonstration of rabid pro-Trump enthusiasm in spite of all reason.

MAGApedes: “Hail Hitler, KKK, make the niggers go away.”
Also MAGApedes: “GOODNESS GRACIOUS, are those numbers in a preposterous order?!?! SECRET SERVICE! Arrest this man at once.”
 
Again I don't think you genuinely are able to mentally model the right side of the spectrum.
Most Trump supporters aren't messianic schizos just as most Harris supporters aren't insane vegan trans lunatics that think having children is murder and being white = you're a literal nazi.
But hey if Trump supporters just need to be dumb, schizophrenic or misguided then maybe you don't have an argument.
Again unless you are argueing BlueAnon talking points like Trump is literally Hitler/Satan/nazi 24/7 there is a legitimate reason he won. It's called the dems dropped the ball so bad and lost the trust of Americans so bad they would rather take an obese orange con man that survived an assassination attempt in a rural PA town over the greatest most qualified candidates according to CBS and the choice is just obviously clear am I rite.
People have to understand politics is not about being a good guy it's looking like a lesser of the 2 evils to everyone else.
You're delusional if you think that most Trump supporters aren't in a cult. Did you not see the Politics General 2 thread when fatty was doing the tariff thing? People went from "It's a negotiating tactic! He won't actually do them!" to "Tariffs and crashing the economy are good! You will be poor and love it!" to "ALL PRAISE TRUMP FOR REMOVING THE TARIFFS! THE ECONOMY IS SAVED!" within the span of a week. The same exact posters, too.

Isn't Trump bringing back the tariffs soon? The cycle will repeat.
Having a (very likely) Alzheimer's patient up as president surely doesn't sound like the best idea.
All it takes is 1 post from him on his Twitter ripoff site and suddenly something random gets a 100% tariff.
I'm pretty sure he has a spinning wheel to decide what gets put under tariffs.

Under Trump, the US has just become the laughing stock of the world, and it looks like most Americans are going to double down on supporting him unfortunately.

Honestly hulkster you get so worked up. But the truth is you guys are just as bad as maga or miga or Is mqga I mean honestly Hulkster don't get so worked up.
Listen to your lord and savior Chudda "Nothing ever happens" "it happened" "and it's over".
Second like we don't have any second stage manufacturing nor will we any time soon unless things fall apart for a specific reason working class Americans becoming middle class Americans with a stake bothers the elites. They would rather rule over a bunch of plebs ao they can live in nice palaces and tell you the common pleb how evil you are for wanting to eat a burger.
America is fucked we're just in the early-ish stages waiting for the first tards to kick off the seeds of civil conflict.
Now sit back shut up listen to the beanie man whine about the civil war for the umpteenth time to the point we can all safely say "nothing ever happens".

You know what I'll bite, they are a cult but so are his critics and if you can't see it then hey man I have a bridge in Alaska to sell you. There is a difference between I hate/dislkike Trump because I think his policies are genuinely racist and am pro mass migration vs IF YOU VOTE FOR TRUMP OR DONT VOTE STRAIGHT TICKET BLUE YOURE LITERALLY HITLER!!!!

Again most people who voted for Trump do so because "man the democrats are nuts and felt disgusted by Hollywood elites trying to talk down to them.
But I'll bite the unironic MAGA people like our lord and savior clanker God Tarl Warwick are just licking the dons taint.
Say what you want but America is no longer land of the free its the land for sale.

A lot of Trump's basic stated positions had been pretty reasonable and people also had the first term of his where things were generally pretty nice to imagine a Trump 2.0 would go pretty well.

Trump on the campaign trail was talking about how tough he was on Russia, how he wanted to promote manufacturing in the US, work up trade deals like he did with USMCA, and fight illegal immigration and so on. I don't think many expected him to start pussy footing around Russia immediately (yet also berate Ukraine for the audacity of being invaded?), promote manufacturing by increasing tariffs/taxes on everyone, do fake trade deals (that so far seems to have gotten him cheaper luxury cars from Britain), and then start using a gulag.

It's been a weird bait and switch, exacerbated by Trump not getting more professional types like Mnuchin in again and instead hiring on whoever could act as the most eager yes-men.

But it is worth recognizing that the stuff Trump used to bait/appeal to voters is pretty popular and that the explanations for how Trump is screwing things up can get confusing for a lot of people, like the people Trump sent to El Salvador often being innocent of any criminal activity, because many Trump supporters aren't even aware of what all Trump is doing or saying.

Like that knuckles photo has created a lot of confusion where not long ago Trump was angrily defending his idea that Abrego Garcia had Helvetia font tattoos placed directly on the bone of his knuckles.



Then tonight, Ingraham ended up disagreeing with Trump while likely not realizing she was. Because like many Trump supporters she likely has zero idea what all Trump is doing or that he made such a point that there was no 'interpretation' placed on the photo.



It can really be like pulling teeth to get people to recognize that "their team" has fucked up some things or that the whole teams thing is just retarded in general.
 
replace US born graduates with H1B jeet visa's - Trust the plan Q

Think they actually cut the visa allotment down for H-1B's and trying to tighten rules on them or rather there's people in Trump's admin wanting to do those things.

There has been some funkiness to with randomly starting new processes regarding biometrics or trying to just find about anything they could say is a problem with a visa holder like we saw with student visas getting investigated resulting in people with dismissed traffic violations nearly being deported for it.

Which makes it seem like they're really trying to speed through creating new processes for tightening security on how visas are handed out or allowed to be kept, without making sure what processes they come up don't end up retarded in practice.


There also has been some talk of whether Trump would increase the "prevailing wage" requirement as he had done in 2020, but the way he had done it then had gotten struck down by the courts when attempted the first time around. From what I can tell, what Biden didn't bother trying to defend Trump's' changes in the courts, so instead he withdrew a rule regarding prevailing wages that resulted in:
The practical impact is that an H-1B worker in a job requiring five years of experience generally must be paid higher than 90% of workers in the same or similar occupation in the geographic area.



Though I've seen some Trump supporters thinking this change coming must be due to Trump and being infinitely thankful for him making it. So Trump isn't exactly making it easier to ship in a bunch of H-1Bs, but we also don't really know what he may want to try with them period.

A lot of people who voted for him are probably the "lesser of two evils" kind, since the dems have been trash for the past decade, but his core base is completely full of retards.
 
Abrego Garcia had Helvetia font tattoos

I haven't kept up with this story. Tell me they weren't trying to say the obv overlaid interpretative text is the tattoos? Am I missing something or was this situation actually this stupid?

Related to the bait and switch and how people thought they were just voting against the ridiculous democrats, I'd say they're letting it all hang out at this point. Essentially they don't care if you know this is all a big fake stupid show. All of it.

You get two effects this way:

#1. you keep your most fervent, Idiocracy-level MAGAs who will do and say anything bought in and rabid. The cult. Just enough demoralization to make them angry, just enough energization to keep them focused elsewhere. Polarization and theatrics.
#2. anyone with half a brain with any level of skepticism or curiosity gives up on democracy. No, not Democrats democracy. I mean legit democracy or republic forms of government.

You didn't even address my point, but I should expect as much from one of the biggest TES posters on this forum lol

Your fellow Thunderdome incels seemed to change their viewpoints to whatever Dear Leader did/said most recent. You guys have absolutely zero convictions of your own, except whatever Daddy Trump says. That's why we make fun of you retards and say you're in a cult

MOST Americans? Not by a long shot.
A lot of Trump's basic stated positions had been pretty reasonable and people also had the first term of his where things were generally pretty nice to imagine a Trump 2.0 would go pretty well.
No, his first term sucked too. He was almost as loony then as he is now. The difference is that he had qualified people in his Cabinet who did a reasonable job at keeping him in check (until he fired them, anyway). Now it's just a free-for-all of incompetent, unqualified sycophants.

His response to COVID was abysmal. The vaccine was developed not because of Trump, but in spite of him. Faucci needed full-time security because he was receiving so many death threats from Trump's cult. I never had much use for Pence (still don't), but at least he made sure the COVID task force kept moving forward and certified the 2020 election, while Trump was having toddler tantrums on Twitter.
 
The cap is mandated by congress and it only applies to new H1-Bs. The additional approvals are for people who are already in on the program and have to renew their visa (usually every 3-6 years). I'm not the biggest fan of the H1-B program but 120k is not really all that unusual.

There's also other things to keep in mind:
1) The discourse right now is about how the big tech companies laid off Americans while asking for more H1-Bs. This isn't really true - a lot of H1-Bs were caught in the layoffs as well. The additional H1-Bs being requested are due to retarded pivots by the big tech companies to focus more on AI. In MSFT's case, they've been gutting their core tech like compilers and systems engineers in favor of more AI people. The skillsets are quite different.
2) I work at a place with a lot of Indian H1-Bs and the general mood among them has been dour. USCIS has gotten much more stringent. Old Biden-era rules allowing for visa interviews to be done remotely are gone and the interviewers are much more adversarial.
3) The new grad employment crisis in SWE is a complicated topic. Recent grads who got into the field due to the hype are of a significantly lower quality than in previous decades, mostly due to them not really having any interest in software outside of what they learned in school and thus showing up to employers with a much weaker skillset. I'm always in favor of hiring juniors and training them but a lot of companies don't want employees that are going to take six months to be productive and would rather hire mid-career engineers that can immediately start producing value within the first month. This has been a long-standing issue in CS education in that CS focuses heavily on theoretical subjects rather than actual application and the unspoken 'rule' being that if you want to get a job you should actively teach yourself how to apply what you learned in school.
 
Why are Trumptards the easiest to bait into saying retarded shit?
Unironic derangement. These are people who've spent the last decade in either the Fox News or RW twitter bubble. Being fed a steady diet of yellow journalism and post-hoc rationalizations for retarded Trump shit has rotted their brains and made them liable to be frothed up into tard rage by pretty much anything so long as Don Jr or Elon spin it right.

The ability for people to create their own echo chambers in general have been a major net negative. Especially as it has created an inability for people to compartmentalize their lives so political opinions in general bleed over into areas and conversations where they shouldn't. I had been guilty of it, but when it started to give me the irrits it is something I've made a very conscious choice to avoid political discussion in general outside of the occasions where 1. it is appropriate and invited and 2. I actually like and trust the person.

I don't mind making fun of politicians and political groups however. I think that should actually be something that is more common, and I find that people who can do it to anyone (including the ones they like) are a lot easier to be around.
