Busy Mr Trump

Meanwhile, whilst the Left continue to have a complete meltdown over Trump and Elon; Trump continues to rack up the wins in the form of investments in the U.S:

$14.1 billion bid from Nippon Steel

$20 billion from Hussain Sajwani

$500 billion over 4 years from Apple

$500 billion over 4 years from Stargate

$600 billion from Saudi Arabia

Whilst Elon with Doge has racked up $65 billion in savings so far and proposed a taxpayer dividend from the savings.

We’re only one month in and this is just the tip of the iceberg. Love seeing the Left rage about Trump :joy:

Yep that is when you know things are going ok, and something has been done right not just in this case, but every other scenario in politics…when they disagree with something, bleat like nanny goats…or both.
It’s like a measuring stick :joy::joy:

And would those not have happened under a different POTUS?
Would Apple for example have said “Oh well, Harris won so we will invest nothing”?
That investment is happening is good for the US, but how come Trump is getting praised? Is he responsible for more than would otherwise have happened?

That is the claim. But from the YT I posted above, and elsewhere, that is nonsense.
Marking your own homework, as Musk is, and sacking the professionals who should be overseeing you, does not seem to be very reliable, now does it?

I rest my case :joy::joy:

ok… uk have commited £12.8 billion france…£3.1 billion, Germany…£23.2 billion denmark, £6.5 billion norway…£39.2 billion sweeden…£5.3 billion in total thats £90.1 billion… how much has the us contributed £142.2 billion nearly 158% more than the top 6 countries but only has 22.97% of the combined gdp per capita of those countries. On that basis to make it equal the 6 countries should of contributed £476.9 billion between them.

ukraine has been trying to join nato for the last 15 years. they went to war 27/2/2014 so your point is irrelevant

i guess they would… it happened here starmer got in and all the investment disappeared. dont give me any waffle about the chinese

Europe is more than 6 countries.
Up to Dec 2024: The US sent $b119 ish
EU plus top 5 Eu and UK over $b120. Plus of course all the other EU countries.
https://www.statista.com/chart/28489/ukrainian-military-humanitarian-and-financial-aid-donors/
Several countries have given more pro rata. After all a smaller country is less able to give than the biggest economy in the world.
Looking at percentage of GDP
The US gave 0.6%, Denmark a massive 2.2% and the UK a creditable 0.9%.

dunno where you got those figures from i got the us ones from here… U.S. Security Cooperation with Ukraine - United States Department of State

the german ones from here … Military support for Ukraine | Federal Government
the rest was straight off google.

The link is in my post. Statista.

somthing wrong with the link then because it clearly says us donations 119.2 germany, uk denmark, netherlands sweeden, france total of 60.4

There is bi-lateral aid from individual named countries, plus from the EU itself $b.52.1

Try this as well.
Trump mentions $b.300 !! Anyway the BBC asked for figures and received…

Busy Mr Trump, has posted a video. This has really been posted by Trump.
Just beyond parody…
Kids running in rubble, as women search for food.
Belly dancers with big chests and big beards. A huge golden statue of a (slim) Great Leader.
Bizarre.

Now he is controlling the news in white house pressure pool

An end for free speech in the land of the free?

well i got my figures from the senate report. not some woke liberal trump is lying coblers. but even they prove that the us contributed more than the top 5 european countries the eu institutions and the uk combined by 6.7 billion. by your figures he is paying 106% more. combined gdp per capita for the top 5 and britain never mind the eu institutions is 254,271.34 more than the is gdp per capita

Franglais, the reason it didn’t happen in the last 4 years under Biden and Kamala is that their administration was anti business. Domestic and international business communities know this and that’s why they were itching for Trump to get in because he’s all about tax cuts and investing into the U.S.

And Elon with the mass firing? Why wouldn’t you want to fire the people that oversaw the hundreds of billions of dollars of waste and corruption. You still want these people in charge of taxpayer money?

I tend to believe that Government should prioritise it’s citizens over the international owners of businesses.
I don’t accept that Biden was anti-business, but accept he was not in the pocket of big business.

Corruption? Have there been any court cases?
One person saying “this is corrupt” is not evidence of corruption.
And calling a legal payment “corrupt”, because you do not like it for political reasons, is at best misleading.

And who is overseeing Musk? How come he oversees himself as he gets billions$$ of new Gov contracts.
Sacking those already in the job of investigating corruption, and bringing in those under the watch of bog contract winner.?..Wow!

That was some news conference with the trump team
Very hard to read him, its all
Yes/No
Possible
Maybe
We will see
Surely Ukraine won’t sign anything without protection, so if trump is saying he’s coming to sign why doesn’t trump just say he’s given him protection
Its a new and different approach to everything and it really has the world thinking, how far can this go or how worse can this get
One thing is sure, its electric tv and I’m loving it, why because you never know what’s gonna come out of his mouth

Trump says lots of things.
And occasionally some of the stuff is true!

I think that Zelensky has said that there is a provisional agreement signed…but…he will go the US next week to sign after some things are clarified.

so he has signed an agreement then wants to renegotiate before he will honour it… um wasnt that what you were moaning trump does

NO. He has signed a provisional agreement.
Just as a provisonal drivi…of=h never mind
