I wonder what our handyman, Mike, thinks about Trump now... [View all] CTyankee Aug 2025 OP

He's thinking whatever they want him to think probably Blues Heron Aug 2025 #1

Hard to think straight when half of your business is wiped out that you worked so hard to build. CTyankee Aug 2025 #2

That will be the last thing he thinks, most con victims will do anything but admit they were conned Blues Heron Aug 2025 #3

Or will he twist it around to make it all the Dems fault? CTyankee Aug 2025 #5

He'll just blame Biden, immigrants, Democrats - like Fox tells him to. MrsCheaplaugh Aug 2025 #13

I'm beginning to think it is his church. I had never heard of it but my guess is it is Evangelical. CTyankee Aug 2025 #14

He won't care WmChris Aug 2025 #40

Of course, but he is a local guy and works locally so he knows what people can/can't afford. He's not a faceless CTyankee Aug 2025 #41

I'll tell you what he's thinking: "THANKS, OBAMA!!!" hatrack Aug 2025 #4

Then he is living in a hell of his own making. How long can you make a living when you are totally irrational? CTyankee Aug 2025 #9

Mike doesn't think or he would've shared your excitement about kamala SheltieLover Aug 2025 #6

Was he silent because he's a Trump voter or silent because he doesn't get personal with clients? WhiskeyGrinder Aug 2025 #7

My guess it was because he was never gonna vote for a Dem, much less a woman Dem. Maybe it was religious, I dunno. CTyankee Aug 2025 #10

yeah I know it was a guess, I was just providing a different guess for his reaction WhiskeyGrinder Aug 2025 #11

Actually the tariff on Canadian soft-wood lumber is 14.54%... the same as it's been since 2024. WarGamer Aug 2025 #18

I don't know what "soft wood lumber" is? If it is what you'd build a ramp with, then I do know what it is. CTyankee Aug 2025 #20

softwood trees include conifers... pine, fir, cedar, redwood... WarGamer Aug 2025 #21

"Softwoods" generically means conifers, as noted above. . . hatrack Aug 2025 #43

He's thinking about joining ICE Bobstandard Aug 2025 #28
