US President Donald Trump suggested four days into his second term in office that companies should manufacture their products at home or face import tariffs. During a video appearance at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos (Switzerland), the Republican leader insisted his constituency had entrusted him to bring about change and thence his carrot-and-stick approach to private investment.

    Goodness gracious me...

    I realize that the anti-Trump idiots are truly miserable now...

    ...poor Skippy Jessop (aka TerryF*ckwitt) seems to be still having a serious hissy-fit the marvelous wonderful Trump changes...

    MAGA!

    Meanwhile we're enjoying our Summer season with perfect weather. Notable that we now in the grape harvest.

    Today's lunch includes feasting on Burpee Silver Queen Hybrid corn. (We've planted four different varieties of corn in our garden.)

    ¡Saludos de Panquehue!

    “Terence Hill is actually Skippy Jessop” Chicureo says dishonourably.

    “An assertion is a statement offered as a conclusion without supporting evidence. A simple assertion is not an argument.”

    Meanwhile, as to your veracity. So you've claimed I'm both fat, (http ://iamskippy.com/I_Am_Skippy/Welcome.html) and skinny. (https ://en.mercopress.com/2021/04/07/patagonian-hotels-returned-to-kirchner-family-as-money-laundering-enquire-reaches-nowhere/comments#comment515747)
    You've presented evidence that I'm 34, (https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=9-nk-4XAgGY) and claimed another time that I'm 80.

    “Donald Trump and fascism
    From Wikipedia

    During his 2024 campaign, Trump has made numerous authoritarian and antidemocratic statements. Trump's previous comments, such as suggesting he can ”terminate“ the Constitution to reverse his election loss, his claim that he would only be a dictator on ”day one“ of his presidency and not after, his promise to use the Justice Department to go after his political enemies, and his plan to use the Insurrection Act of 1807 to deploy the military in Democratic cities and states, have raised concerns over Trump's rhetoric.

    Trump has stated that he would deploy the military on American soil to fight ”the enemy from within“, which he describes as ”radical left lunatics“ and Democratic politicians such as Adam Schiff. His political rhetoric since 2016 has been based on a us vs them framework, with the in-group being defined as ”real Americans“ and the rival, out-groups ...

    Trump has repeatedly voiced support for outlawing political dissent and criticism he considers misleading or challenges his claims to power. After General Mark Milley said that Trump would start persecuting his political opponents if he won the 2024 presidential election, Trump suggested that Milley should be executed for treason, with Republican representative Paul Gosar further stating that, in a better society, ”sodomy-promoting General Milley would be hung“. Retired general Barry McCaffrey said, regarding Trump's statements, that ”what we are seeing is a parallel to the 1930s in Nazi Germany“. Trump's formal policy plan for a second term, Agenda 47, has been characterized as fascist. Historian Ruth Ben-Ghiat stated that the similarities between the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 and Mussolini's ”Laws for the Defense of the State“, which transformed Italy into a repressive regime, are ”striking”, citing the elimination of judicial independence and the strengthening of executive authority.

    I truly feel sad that Skippy's çanadate suffered a historical political defeat. Let's hope that he seeks a mental health specialist for his TDS disaster.

    Afterall his President won both the electoral and popular vote.

    MAGA!

    Meanwhile our grape harvest is going very well, with excellent quality.

    Today's lunch includes marvelous chefs salad and peach cobbler from our family garden.

    The Traitors Among Us
    Donald Trump likes to call his opponents traitors — but if he’s looking for treasonous behavior, he should look within his own party
    “America is in the midst of a treason boom right now, and more than a few people in Trump’s immediate orbit — and Trump himself — richly and actually deserve the title of traitor, and the treason inherent in their acts and words is apparent.

    ”Trump's grandfather was a pimp and tax evader; his father a member of the KKK
    As they say, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree; Donald Trump's racism can easily be traced through his lineage.”
