Just a reminder, even if it hasn't come up for a few pages and y'all should know this stuff by now:

This thread is not about Covid, lockdowns, or vaccines. It is about Donald Trump. While Trump was in office during the pandemic and his response to Covid is relevant, there are pertinent threads for you to post your opinions on those things in.

It might also do with reminding a few that when you post on the SRP, you are responsible for backing up/verifying your claims to fact. What this means is that you will be asked time to time to support your claims with evidence, to ensure that this forum is as free of misinfomation as we can make it.

Do not post conspiracy theories on this forum. We have an entire other forum for that.

Thanks all.

Well, it still displays an ignorance over whether it can get a lot worse (it can).

Things can always get worse. They could also get better- it actually did for millions of Trump's base last time he was President, until a once in 100 year pandemic hit.

Its not as if the Democrats gave a damn about them, and they're the ones who are supposed to.

What's the bet it's a Chibson (Chinese Gibson copy for those not up on guitar-nerd speak)?

The description is suitably vague about where it's manufactured.

"All of the guitars featured on GetTrumpGuitars.com were custom designed and developed by a Veteran owned company with the help of a master luthier. These guitars have been manufactured by multiple providers and include parts/features that are both domestic and international. This is standard with most guitar manufacturers. "

The Chump selling a Chibson. Perfect synchronicity

The Democrats give more of a damn, this is evident in legislation passed, judicial appointments and other administration rulings/acts. But yes, it's not anywhere near enough of a damn.

The claim that things got better under Trump the first time around would make sense, but only if you ignored the trends that were already occurring when Obama left office (post GFC recovery). Trump just didn't do anything to stuff it up. And then Biden went on to beat those employment stats post Covid, and there is somewhat of a manufacturing uptick as well (more than under Trump).

LOL my first thought. Any headstock photos yet? Wouldn't be surprised if it's a slightly off Gibson decal with all of the run having the exact same US built serial #

there’s also the self-serving ultra-rich who benefit from him accommodating their every wish. in a sense they manipulate him.


“Donald Trump is an ignorant, overconfident, narcissistic, grievance-ridden man — a dumb man, who over time has attracted around him an asteroid field of dumb allies who are but lesser versions of himself. ”

In the Second Trump Era, don't expect reality to be realistic.

It was nice of them to give the blind graphic designer a chance to decorate them.

There is much wrong with the concept of the 45 guitar (including Trump's creepy grin) but the design isn't one of them. The eagle and flag look really cool.

Franklin Mint would have rejected it as too tacky.

It would be a piece of junk. No guitarist would ever buy one.

The Dems care about people who fly. That's a LOT of Americans. But perhaps Trump supporters aren't amongst them.

There have been many improvements to regulations since Biden came in, but now the airlines are rubbing their hands/wings in glee, as Trump potentially plans to rescind them.

Do they? Is that why they call them deplorable garbage?

The prevous government gets 6 months credit, and the new one, 6 months grace. After that the new government owns it- for good or bad.
