The Real timschochet

Lol dude you think you know about me but you don’t. Dump the personal comments and stick to offering wretched and false political analysis: it’s what you’re good at.

Carolla is such an idiot.

More good analysis: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/31/business/trump-tariffs-higher-prices.html In essence President Trump is making the same mistake that leftists do when they call for austerity methods to combat climate change: leftists like AOC think the public is willing to accept hardships in the name of the environment. Trump thinks the public is willing to accept hardships in the name of nationalism. The public won’t accept either. The public doesn’t like pain in exchange for some nebulous goal. If you are a conservative reading this please understand: unless Trump can be talked out of these tarrifs all of the reasons you voted for him will be for naught. Everything else that he is trying to do, that you voted for, will be swept aside because these tariffs will bring about much misery followed by a Democratic landslide.

Very nice of you. 1. Can’t really go on the booz tour as my wife is many years sober, though I have tried a few drinks including the Grenade. 2. Tipitina’s and the Spotted Cat are both on my list. 3. I am trying out a muffaletta sandwich at Serio’s. Excellent!

Your suspicion is based on the fact that you don’t like liberalism. That’s it, you have no facts to go on.

Th self inflicted pain is coming in 2 days. So unnecessary.

Wel’ll be here all week. Dinner at Antoine’s tonight. Lunch at Dooky Chase tomorrow. Commanders Palace Friday. The soup was at a Sunday buffet off of Bourbon.

I still don’t think they would ever agree,

Well sure maybe if you put it that way. Theres 57,000 people in Greenland. You sure you want to spend that? (Keep in mind that almost all of the money we spent for Ukraine went to our own defense industries.)

I think he thinks it would add to his legacy too.

Wow too bad. I was looking forward to the hearings.

No they wouldn’t. They don’t want to be owned by us.

Also tried fried alligator. That was OK. Tasted like chicken.

I tried turtle soup with sherry! Delicious!

No need. You haven’t any answers. I knew that already.

Thank you. Gotta say that was one of the best concerts I’ve ever seen, 6 old dudes doing Dixieland, all experts, just incredible

You’re correct I have no clue, so hopefully you can explain it to me. Greenland is owned by Denmark which is part of NATO. Russia will never seize it because, since it is part of NATO, that would start WWIII. Why is it in our strategic interests to own it instead of Denmark, at the risk of alienating Western Europe? What exactly do we gain that we don’t have now? We currently have use of their waterways and without any fees or penalty, for both our military and merchant ships. So how would ownership benefit us? Please explain became I don’t get it.

I’m at Preservation Hall tonight to hear some classic jazz. Really looking forward to this.

I can’t even keep track of all rhe times you’ve responded to my posts with “no one cares”. Obviously YOU care.

It’s because we have to pay for all of the poor red states out there. If we didn’t have to support all of you dumb asses things would be a lot easier.

As it turns out I am here. First time.

Pretty good analysis of the immediate effects of the tariffs from Associated Press: https://apnews.com/article/trump-new-tariffs-liberation-day-import-taxes-118d73f50e5133ef3d9598aed6661a6c One hopeful line: “It is also possible that the tariffs are short-lived if Trump feels he can get a deal after imposing them.” Fine. Let Trump get his deal, proclaim victory. Let his fans cheer him on. So long as the tariffs are ahort-term I don’t care.

Lolololol

This is not quite right. The Democrats tried to pass it but the Republicans killed it. Then Biden took him upon himself to secure the border by executive order. By the time Trump took office the border was already secure. But again these are temporary measures. What Biden did was a bandaid. The Senate bill, had it passed would have been a larger bandaid. What Trump is currently doing is an even larger bandaid with a lot of show for the MAGA crowd put in. But none of this is anything close to a permanent solution.
