Here, since people probably don't remember, here's my previous thread linking to video of Sawant saying outright that the whole point of the Greens being in the race is to keep Harris from winning and throw the race to Trump.

If you've been following the news from the #LasVegas area, you'll have learned that the #TrumpWar, the #TrumpTariffs, and the #BoycottUSA effect resulting from threats of invasion or sanctions made against Canada, Greenland, and a lot of European erstwhile allies, have resulted in a marked decline in the Nevada economy.

Strip gaming, Vegas airport traffic fall sharply in January; trade shows pick up slack

Casino revenue falls 11 percent, passengers down 8 percent, but a 2.2 percent decline in visitors is considered a win.

Who is Sheriff Chad Bianco, the California governor candidate who seized 650,000 ballots?

Bianco has a long history of hardline conservative statements and his ballot seizure fits clearly into the Republican Party’s broader attack on free and fair elections.

It has taken the financial people a decade to see that #DonaldJTrump regularly lies about deals, already made and impending.

Keep up, economists! A lie is the first recourse.

The man got convicted in court for covering up financial dealings, and has blatantly lied as standard operating procedure about things ranging from Iran having the U.S.A.'s Tomahawk missiles to Alex Pretti being an 'insurrectionist'.

How much worth is there in a currency signed by #DonaldJTrump?

And does #GreshamsLaw mean that everyone will be hoarding the non-Trump-signed money and trying to palm the Trump-signed money off on other people as much as possible?

It would be amusingly ironic if Trump's vanity extending to banknotes ended up as a footnoted additional minor causative factor in #DeDollarization in future history books.

Treasury Announces President Donald J. Trump’s Signature to Appear on Future U.S. Paper Currency

WASHINGTON – In honor of the 250th anniversary of the United States of America, President Donald J. Trump’s signature will appear on future U.S. paper currency along with the Secretary of the Treasury, marking the first time in history for a sitting president.“Under President Trump’s leadership, we are on a path toward unprecedented economic growth, lasting dollar dominance, and fiscal strength and stability,” said Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent. “There is no more powerful way to recognize the historic achievements of our great country and President Donald J. Trump than U.S dollar bills bearing his name, and it is only appropriate that this historic currency be issued at the Semiquincentennial.”“As the 250th anniversary of our great nation approaches, American currency will continue to stand as a symbol of prosperity, strength, and the unshakable spirit of the American people under President Trump’s leadership,” said Treasurer Brandon Beach. “The President’s mark on history as the architect of America’s Golden Age economic revival is undeniable. Printing his signature on the American currency is not only appropriate, but also well deserved.”###

I find this hilarious - FIFA having to dump tickets, hotels, hospitality as people are either boycotting the US, or afraid of going, or even can't get visas

And Canada as well because they awarded the demented orange monkey a fake peace prize

They are getting schooled
