Well IM, You’re full of all the same media programmed statist assertions as most all public schooled and two-party cultists are. It’s a legit bummer that FDR’s revelation to the public receives such little credit and critical thought: “Presidents are selected, not elected.”
Your cited figures are but an evidentiary sad commentary on society — that so many tens of millions of American serfs vote, believing it to be effectual, believing it carries ANY decisional impact, is heart wrenchingly tragic.

I'd rather have a puppet who makes me money rather than takes it. Simple as that for me.
If Trump is a puppet, why are the puppet masters trying to kill him?
Hmmmm

Regarding tariffs, I agree static tariffs raise prices and are likely inflationary. In a static analysis . A legit threat of tariffs, however, can lead to a more genuine free trade that benefits both trade partners.

the goal is to further free trade and tariffs are a tool in the toolbox. Previous trade agreements did not appear very symmetric

This I completely agree with. I love free (fair) trade. Now, if Trump is using this as a bargaining position, to start, then fine. But I fear that most countries know this, so the bargaining position is lose.

But maybe it isn't.

I am no fan of China. The Chinese people are fine, they work hard.. They are supporting families like we are. But the Chinese government will not allow US products to have a level playing field there.

I could go on and on about Chinese practicing. I spent over $20,000 defending my intellectual property from a Chinese company. The Chinese company started cloning my products and selling them online. I own this trademark/patent. Most Americans do now know this, but the Chinese government subsidizes intellectual property thieves in China. Actually pays them a subsidy to attempt to steal US intellectual property. That shit needs to stop. That was $20,000 I should not have had to spend if they were playing by the rules.

My product ratings are constantly being sabotages by the Chinese. The play so many sneaky games I actually have software specifically signed to notice their attempts. Another expense I should not have to pay.

I encourage Trump to level the playing field. And protect our ideas. It disincentivizes me from creating now products when the products are immediately cloned. Ughh...

So 71Million+ Americans got it wrong again? Trust me, Trump Administration wont take our guns. I have full faith that will never happen. It would never happen if the Dems were elected either.
Trump is Tyrant? lol.. Name calling didn't help the Harris/Walz campaign at all, and they were referring to him as Hitler.
OK, I’ll trust you instead of Trump’s own prior words and legal actions, IM.
That sounds reasonable, reliable and intelligent.

No one has taken our guns or truly has tried. This argument is stale from both sides and it is just another diversion from the real issues that need to be solved.

Because voting is merely symbolic to begin with (it carries no real power), at the least, my symbolic gesture of not voting is expressing that I don’t consent to being subjugated under any imposed human authority.
The reality is that I can’t delegate any authority to a centralized system of control (to anyone actually) that I didn’t / don’t myself possess to begin with. In other words, we (you nor I) cannot give something we don’t have to begin with.
I rightfully, naturally, only possess control over myself.

You are still going to be making new and exciting sex toys even if they are infringed upon correct? We need entrepreneurs such as yourself bro, fight the good fight, don't become subjugated like whats his head said would happen to us.
Perhaps something in the shape of a firearm with a functioning trigger to really set the shitheads off!
