"I won by millions of votes"

Asked for evidence he replied "you'll see"

It's 2026. This was 6 years ago. I won't hold my breath.

Aliens have been an ancient Republican trope about since forever

Area 51 and all that, and "the government isn't telling you the whole truth!!!"

Along with the 100,000 UN troops bivouaced in the woods of northern Minnesota, waiting for orders from the Trilateral Commission to sweep down into Washington DC and establish a One World Government

Elon, don't be upset!" nationalist senator Dmitry Rogozin, who once ran Russia's space programme, wrote on Musk's X social media site. "If you encounter insurmountable problems in the U.S., come to us. Here you will find reliable comrades and complete freedom of technical creativity." #Delusional

Authored by Cavallo & two colleagues, it finds that “#US #consumers were bearing roughly 43% of the tariff-induced border cost after 7 months, with the remainder absorbed mostly by US firms.” Cavallo said by email that import prices hadn’t fallen much, “which suggests foreign exporters did not reduce their pre-tariff prices enough to shoulder a large share of the burden.″

CLAIM: “The data shows that the burden, or ‘incidence,’ of the #tariffs has fallen overwhelmingly on foreign producers & middlemen, including large corporations that are not from the #US. According to a recent study by the Harvard Business School, these groups are paying at least 80% of tariff costs.”

THE FACTS: The study #Trump cited appears to conclude the opposite of what Trump claimed.

Alberto Cavallo, an economist at Harvard & the author of a study on the impact of #tariffs [stupidly] cited by #Trump in his op-ed, has found that Trump’s tariffs have boosted overall #inflation by roughly three-quarters of a percentage point.

The impact of the #Trump #tariffs can be more clearly seen in core goods prices, which also exclude food & energy. Before the pandemic, core goods costs typically barely rose — or even fell — each year, but last December they were 1.4% higher than a year earlier. That was the largest increase, outside the pandemic, since 2011.

Annual core #inflation for the final six months of 2025 is higher at 2.6%. That is down from January 2025’s level but about where it was in October 2024. Overall, inflation has leveled off this year, & was 3% in September before the [orchestrated] government #shutdown, the same as it had been in January 2025.

#Trump’s figure for annual #inflation in the past 3 months — which excludes the volatile #food & #energy prices — is low, but reflects data distorted by the [orchestrated] government #shutdown in Oct & Nov, which disrupted the government’s #data collection & forced the agency that compiles the figures to plug in rough estimates in some categories that artificially lowered overall inflation.

CLAIM: “Annual core inflation for the past 3 months has dropped to just 1.4% — far lower than almost anyone, other than me, had predicted.”

THE FACTS: #Trump is using cherry-picked data to vastly exaggerate where #inflation stands.

#Trump also likes point to solid gains in the #US #StockMarket. He noted that #stocks hit new highs 52 times in 2025. It’s true that the US stock market did well last year. But it underperformed many foreign stock markets. The benchmark S&P 500 index climbed 17% — a nice gain but short of a 71% surge in South Korea, 29% in Hong Kong, 26% in Japan, 22% in Germany & 21% in the UK.

In 2024, the last year of the #Biden presidency, American GDP grew 2.8%, adjusted for #inflation, faster than any wealthy country in the world except Spain. It also expanded at a healthy rate from 2021 through 2023. All while recovering from the pandemic that began under & was made incredibly worse by #Trump.

Here’s a look at the facts around Trump’s assessment of tariffs∶

CLAIM: “Just over one year ago, we were a ‘DEAD’ country. Now, we are the ‘HOTTEST’ country anywhere in the world!’”

THE FACTS: This is a standard statement from #Trump. But the #US #economy was hardly “dead” when Trump returned to office last year. And in Trump’s second term, it’s performed strongly — after getting off to a bumpy start.
