Trump poised to double down on immigration crackdown and refuse concessions to new Democratic majority in Congress
Donald Trump set the stage for his administration to lurch further to the right this weekend, claiming the US had taken a “giant step back” by widely rejecting his party.
The US president’s hardline aide, Stephen Miller, will begin as White House chief of staff on Monday. He will also meet with Dana White, CEO and president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, after offering him the job of press secretary.
“America took a giant step back in History with the results of the last Election,” Trump claimed in a post on his Truth Social platform on Sunday morning, citing the sharp sell-off in global markets, fueled a rout of US tech stocks. “But have no fear, we will be back, BIGGER AND STRONGER THAN EVER BEFORE!”
Uh no, it’s inconvenient for people but it’s a small increase in costs not that big a deal. Things haven’t even approached actually bad financially. Bankrupt is still far away. It can get much worse several times before you get there. That’s still enough for a second plague and a large multi regional hot war and a recession then when the next climate crisis arrives you’re looking at closer to bankruptcy level.
