TYPE 1 and 2 … Trump Derangement Syndrome

TYPE 1: Believing Trump is literally Hitler or is even worth obsessing over.

TYPE 2: Believing Trump is a savior or Moses and is here to help.

I’ve done enough testing of Twitter/X that I believe I can prove the following if I had access to the GROK data warehouse:

  1. I’m probably never really interacting with ANYONE on that trash app.
  2. That the rules are such that you can’t say “you are a gay ass fag”, but you can say “you are agayassfag” and GROK is none the wiser. Anyone with basic language skills in English over the age of 10 can still figure it out. And as I’ve said, if they tightened the rules, GROK would likely lock up Twitter/X.
  3. Even though I’m not ready to test this, I might soon. I think I could post threats against Trump’s life all the live long day on twitter/x and nothing would happen.

TRUMP is “helping” homeless veterans … (AmeriCorps)

NOTE: whatever DOGE “savings” have been accumulated are quickly being spent to supply the State of Israel with bombs to drop on poor people. A cursory analysis (you can see below), leads me to believe that BEST CASE TRUMP just created 1,000 new homeless veterans, to include (likely) canceling programs that support veterans THAT ARE HOMELESS and helps them reintegrate and find jobs. 1,000 seems like a small number, until you realize these are families too, kids in the mix, and after 2 years of working with under-housed/homeless kids it’s clear to me that living on the streets creates more poverty, not less, for generations to come. So good luck MAGA.

Veterans Supporting Veterans: https://www.impactingourfuture.com/supporting-our-veterans/americorps-seniors-supports-veterans/

Assumption: the volunteer rate for American veterans is higher than the percentage of veterans generally. But let’s accept the conservative bet and simply use the population fraction as the multiplier: 6.1% or 0.06

6.1% of 32,000 canceled AmeriCorps volunteers would be 1,920, but I would round this up to 2,000 based upon the assumption that the volunteer rate for veterans is GREATER THAN the rate of veterans in the population generally.

2,000 veterans … now multiply this times the population likelihood of homelessness given current economic circumstances.

So, I would propose that by cutting the 400 million from AmeriCorps, Trump just placed:

2,000 * 0.59 = 1180

1180 new homeless veterans.

MAGA
