"not possible to meet the number of people that want to see us" has the same energy as "it's not possible for you to meet my girlfriend because she lives in Canada."

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

[Republicans] say US will set new tariff rates for countries, skirting negotiations.
Don’t forget it’s a whole party. Never forget and never let anyone else when he inevitably is gone. We need to stay on point.
Meanwhile the rest of the world continues to negotiate and make deals with each other to operate without the USA.
It’s strange that they were not prepared to meet with 150 counties simultaneously. It’s almost like they could have noticed just how many would come calling when they were at Staples printing out that silly list Trump was hugging.
I'd like for him to tell us which 150 countries are so eager to talk. Russia, El Salvador and? Everybody else seems to be busy making new deals that specifically don't include the US.
At the end of the day, he's not supposed to he setting any tarrifs. Thats not his job.
It is “not possible to meet with the number of people that want to see us” in the way that it is “not possible to meet with” 0 people, I guess.
Cruelty is the point! How much pain and suffering will be required to oust this gigantic sack of shit?
He claimed on Fox News that the China deal had to be done because China was about to crumble without the US.
Everything is a projection. Now we know how he feels.
Get in on the grift. Short the market, then open longs when he’s about to bend the knee. Good chance he’ll tweet directly few hours before the pump so everyone has a chance to load their bags.
Oh no…
