Great Analogy to what the left did to President Trump and then call him a failure

Leftists SAY...THERE is no border wall; Manufacturing was not brought back; Americans farmers and manufacturers were made so great again, that one measly, irrelevant eastern European country could destabilize the entire supply chain because we're that dependent on them. All we got from Trump is useless culture war, white identity politics, and more wealth for him and the top 1%. As a woke black conservative, I stood behind many of the goals of maga(not that they were anything new), but facts are facts and he failed.

THE TRUTH, The REsponse,

Your analogy is like a farmer promising to grow a tomato plant. He plants it, waters it, feeds it, and it begins to grow.

The farmer goes on vacation, & while gone some asshole stomps on the plant & it dies.

Then you claim the farmer's efforts were a failure...

...that's because you refuse to acknowledge / refuse to blame the asshole who stomped on the plant & killed it.



It's like claiming a family's business in Baltimore was a failure when the reason it had to close was because Antifa / BLM burned it to the ground during 'mostly peaceful protests'.

russia has won. the countries that have heen excluded in times past have united with the bear and are standing firm. even nuetral india has sided with russia. and so has saudia arabia. countless countries are comming to Vlads aid economically and militarily. at this point in time, even i welcome a soviet government over what we have now. maybe russia will make us free again. for they have a most recent history of after quelling evil jews, opening up that subjected nation to free enterprize.

@jirqoadai....do you have a list of the allies of ukraine and a list of the allies of russia in this war?

a written list i keep up to date on paper? sadly no. what i can give you is a specific of Hungary threatening to leave nato if they arent allowed to continue to import gas and oil from russia.

Lol, right... President Trump was a "failure" as shown by the success that Beijing has had. Oh wait, what were the gasoline prices when President Trump was in the WH versus now? Which one left millions of dollars in tax payer funded military equipment in Afghanistan for the terrorists? Whose son was it that left his laptop at a computer repair shop? Whose son was it that had pictures taken of him passed out with a crack pipe in his mouth?

And of course who can forget, which president was "fact checked" constantly while the other has repeatedly lied and not one MSM has "fact checked" him?

One day, the current "stompers" themselves will receive a long overdue , stomping.
The fact of the matter for the free world is, the longer it takes to stomp out the entrenched Marxists and socialist misfits and self-enrichers in the US government, the more innocent and freedom loving lives will be lost in the return to a nation of self sufficiency and prosperity.

The main enemies of the people are indeed corporate greed and the politicians who facilitate it!

I don't care how left of center it sounds. It's the truth.

When companies started to outsource to communist produced goods for the mere sake of shareholder bottom line and dividend performance(but mostly for CEO performance with entrenched bonus monies) , while forsaking the American worker and quality American products, the American people and the American economy was subturfuged into a death spiral of steady, economic destruction.

Cheap goods don't save the consumer money!
They cost the consumer double or more , when you have to buy 2 cheap products when you could have bought 1 well-made American product in the same, product, life span.

But durable goods companies, wally wurl, etc. love these cheaply made, crappy products for the simple fact that you have to purchase them more often.

Several decades ago, the first time I heard someone tell me, " Time's have changed, we live in a global economy now", I wanted to punch his idiot lights out.

Even though he was not incorrect, the tide could have been stopped at that time.

Why would anyone want to forego prosperity and economic freedom to support, or be like some 3rd world, shit hole ?

Make no mistake. Every POTUS since Nixon was involved to a certain degree. Some more than others.
But the bulk of the blame for the destruction of the American way of life lies with both houses of Congress.

I can tell you how this works but it's a whole nuther thread!

First, individuals with the help of the government bring in imported cheap products. Like shrimp and prawns and Chinese crawfish.

Everyone makes a killing! Except the local producers who get priced out of the market and get their superior product stolen from them at an unlivable American wage.

Hell ensues and people complain!

The answer is to put a tariff on the imported product. Usually not enough to knock the import out. After all we are a free country, eh? Sarc.

Sometimes, additional tariffs are added ..


Now. Let's go back to the beginning.

Think about it.

American producer=still suffering
US Government =collecting ever increasing tariff money
Example:

Fresh or Frozen Louisiana crawfish tail meat.... retail ... about $15/lb
Chinese meat.... wholesale .... about $2.50/lb minus tariff. Tariff 100%or more ... Frozen Chinese meat wholesale... 5 dollars a pound. Retail... anywhere from $4.99-$7.99 on sale.... $12.99 regular price.

The us government makes hundreds of millions of dollars on millions of pounds of imported crawfish tail meat tariff with little to zero inspection..

The whole inspection system(not sure about APHIS) only inspects 1-2% of all imports.

And to be honest, the domestic shrimpers get screwed the most because shrimp sales are through the roof compared to crawfish tail meat sales.

It pains me to go into any local store knowing whatever they sell or display fresh is not from the gulf of Mexico or even American..But I go to this one independent store about 20 miles away because I like the set up.

About a month ago, i went to this local independent store where they sell previously frozen , defrosted prawns in an ice bed. Very nice stuff! Although overpriced at $8.99/lb/head on. Used to be $5.99-$6.99/lb. There heads were bigger than the tails.

There's some basic morphological differences between a prawn and a shrimp.   Every good fisherman is aware of these things. Most people have no idea. Like the difference between a male and female crawfish.

They're all good to me.

So started to get a few shrimp to fry. And this very dark  "meat cutter" just walks over. I ask him where the "shrimp" are from . He tells me Grand Isle!   I like to come unglued on datt nigga ! I kinda waited for his joke face. But no, he thought I was your average, cracker, shrimp buyer.

I gave him a good sermon ! One of my high school friends works in that meat department came out from the back. He like, Like WTF? Lolol.
I told both of them, if you can't label them as prawns or at least a good lie,  like farm  
raised, some day someone is going to turn you in. And it won't be me. But dont like  being lied to like that!

Long story short. I cannot stand a liar!

I threw them heathen shrimp back on top of the ice.

Then, my friend explained to "shrimp liar" that my family had been in the retail grocery  market for 73 years. And I had been a commercial fisherman for over 20.

But you know, ain't all white men stupid. I started to leave the whole basket there.
BUT I got bummed out and checked my basket out and paid for everything.

I guess my high school buddy musta went to the owners. I didn't think it was that serious. But I did say in the heat of the moment that I would never be back. Lol

I got to the parking lot and was loading my stuff into the truck and the owner( his dad and my dad were good friends. The owner is about my age.  

He came out to the parking lot laughing. I wasn't in a laughing mood. I travel 40 miles to shop there. I dont need no n@gg@risms while I'm shopping. Just honest answers.

He told me was looking for a reason to fire that bastard that would not get him involved in a racism lawsuit.

Told me he's gone. I told him I wasn't sure If i would  back to the store ever.

He asked me if I had to testify to the truth, would i do willingly. I told him yes.


He held me up there in the parking lot till one the guys in the meat dept brought me a 5lb  Box of the biggest, frzen, headless shrimp I've ever seen in my life.



At first, I just refused to take it. It just wasn't necessary. It wasn't the owner's mistake.
But one thing  @Red Lily taught me , is that sometimes you have to accept these things even if they are unwarranted or not needed, or desired.

It gives others some sense of closure or remediation.

Damn shrimp munchin chimp
