IT’S OFFICIAL, FOLKS! Trump thinks he can just slap tariffs on our friends abroad and watch us ‘compete’ again? Newsflash: this only hurts the little guy (and the planet). Just got word from Acer CEO that those tariffs have already led to a 10% price hike for laptops in the US. That’s right, we’re paying more for the very devices that are supposed to help us succeed in an era of ‘American greatness’. Meanwhile, Trump is too busy coddling his corporate pals to care about the real American people. Wake up, sheeple! It’s time to stop voting for politicians who only look out for their buddies on Wall Street.

    <shrug> whatever. I don’t know who kalshi are and I don’t trust anything American. Betting agencies in my own country have it at a bit worse than evens. I trust paddypower or bet365 who have been around decades to pay out a lot more than some US tech bros. Ignoring the fact it’s not a bet, it’s an options contract.

    And yes, you can keep circling around poking at it but I stand by the assertion that there won’t be a fair election in 2026 because a) trump has been running line by line down the Hitler playbook and b) he said the quiet part out loud (after nov24 i wont need your votes) and c) musk’s kid outright said the same thing too and 4year olds dont drop clangers like that unless someone has said it in front of him

    Ping me in two years

      What’s stopping you from placing a wager on your favorite platforms then? You seem to feel quite confident it’s going to happen, yet for some reason aren’t willing to get that “easy” money…
