Seems like the main politics thread is becoming a Yankee-Doodle Trump-fest, so maybe scope here to split them out.
Will see if this one gains any traction ..if it does will move over a few of the million posts from our two protagonists from the other thread.
Yee-haaa!

When you actually see your country win something you can brag, until then enjoy your failure in every major tournament. Did you cry in 2021?
Yup i'm proud to be Italian with Italian parents, Italian citizenship, Italian propety, Italian voting righs and an Italian passport. It never fails to amuse me how salty that makes you.
So why don't you fuck off and live in Italy then
Oh l forget its a bigger shithole than here
My country win something..True wasn't around in 1945 like you wasn't around nearly two thousand years ago when Rome ruled lol

Yup introduced in April, since then inflation has gone up, the trade deficit for goods has grown wider (by a record amount) and manufacturing has shed jobs every month.
So it delivered the exact opposite of what was promised.
US factory orders fell back again in December by the way.
Tax cuts kick in for the richest while the poorest continue to struggle with inflation on essentials and electricity prices through the roof.
You could go on but its all pie in the sky while the actual facts continue to prove you and you rapist president wrong.

New trade agreements are still being processed and implemented, all are favorable to the USA by the way and all open new markets for American CO’s. You expect that data to show up in the 4th quarter ffs.

FY GDP was 2.2%.
Q4 is reflective of the latest trend, as is the flat retail sales in December.
As is the record amount of personal debt and highet defaul figures on that debt on over a decade.
The private sector is not creating jobs. You can hang on to one month of healthcare as much as you like.
One last time - zero job growth across 2025. An entire year with no jobs created.
Tariffs have been paid by American consumers and American companies. This is also a fact.
They have also done the opposite of what they were meant to do, the trade deficit on goods actually grew bigger. Oh and manufacturing shed jobs every month of the year from April onwards.

So it hasn’t been a year has it.
Again 1.4% includes a Gov’t shutdown and a collapse in Gov’t spending. Funny how you choose to not get into the weeds on that.
Q3 GDP was much higher.
Jobs are going to the private sector and to Americans, now that Immigration is being tackled wages are going up and rents are starting to drop.
Id say that’s a good thing for the less fortunate wouldn’t you?

You've had a year and have only brought a huge backwards step in jobs and GDP. Inflation has gone up from day 1 of Trumps 2nd term.
You think zero jobs growth, 1.4% GDP and persistent inflation are silly arguments? The opinion polls do not agree with you.
Data centres will not deliver jobs, they will remove jobs. They will deliver growth for the top 10%.
Everyone else faces zero job growth and higher inflation thanks to tariffs. Ther tax cuts are not for them.
