I just watched the ABC interview with Trump. What a disaster. Trump definitely has some serious mental issues and is not fit for office. Things are getting worse, most prices are going up, stocks are dropping, the U.S. Economy shrinks, the war in Ukraine didn't end, and Trump is gaslighting.

Trump said he couldn't care less if we have to pay higher prices for new cars: Trump says he ‘couldn’t care less’ if auto prices rise because of tariffs

Right when you think it can't get any worse, it does. The only competent, knowledgeable, and ethical person on that Signal thread was the guy they added by mistake. And Trump is an idiot and downplaying it. Remember what he said about Hillary?

No. Trump got about 77 million votes, but there are closer to 200 million registered voters. He also got less than a majority (less than 50%) among those who actually voted.

Perhaps it is well above your understanding, but everything I stated can be confirmed. I've noticed when you don't have any relevant response, you just like to hurl insults at people. Other times, you're just copying and pasting. That's easier than addressing the issues, huh?

I'm not, but it's not just the LGBTQ community that doesn't like Trump. More and more of those who voted for him are regretting their votes after seeing the damage he is doing to the country, adding tariffs, causing higher prices, wide-scale slashing of needed Federal workers, pushing us into a...

Trump called this correctly, just 7 months too early:

It's the uninformed, low-information gullible voters like yourself who voted for Trump. The fact that you're standing behind Trump at this point leads me to believe you get your news only from your favorite Bill O'Reilly and his spin factory machine. @Luman always talks about how Ukraine should...

Trump doesn't come across as the President of the United States. He's an embarrassment to the country. The same is true of Vance. They didn't show respect for Zelenskyy. Trump doesn't even know who started the war and is making pro-Putin talking points.

Harris-Walz, the only option on the ticket that had a chance of beating Trump. They won my state.

Great post. Thank you for taking the time. As mentioned throughout the thread, it's the low-information voter that got us to this point of having Trump in office again, and now we are all suffering the consequences. Four years is a long time, and who knows how much damage is yet to be done.

Xanax shouldn't be taken along with the large doze of Clonazepam he took, which is also a benzo, with a much longer half life than Xanax. Mind over matter might work for stable mild to moderate tinnitus.

After four disastrous years of Trump's first presidency, I knew how bad he was likely to be again, and I braced myself for the inevitable harm he would bring to the country this time around, but he has managed to exceed my worst expectations in record time.

All we have to do is look at Trump's first term to see what he wanted to pass, and he still complains about John McCain giving the thumbs down. Those replacements and the skinny repeal were not improvements. The CBO estimated over 20,000,000 people would lose health insurance under multiple...

If Social Security isn’t addressed, it will result in automatic benefit cuts of about 25% when the trust fund runs out. Trump also wants to repeal the Affordable Care Act, which would leave millions without health care.

Those tariffs will be passed on to American consumers. It just amounts to a big tax increase on American citizens. Retaliatory tariffs have been announced as well. Oh, and Trump is now saying Americans will feel pain from the tariffs. So much for his promise to bring down prices. Welcome to...

It's Trump's 25% tax increase on Americans in the form of high tariffs that will be passed on to consumers. I mentioned this earlier in the thread before he was elected. Trump said he was going to lower prices, and low information voters believed him.

FYI: auricle.com is a different Auricle.

I took Dayvigo temporarily, but I have been on Quviviq (daridorexant) for 9 months, which is the newer medication mentioned earlier in this thread that is in the same DORA class as Dayvigo. I started on Quviviq and jumped to the max dose quickly, but after 6 months, I switched to the max dose of...

Yes, this definitely sounds like TTTS (which is a type of MEM). I have had it for over 1 1/2 years, although I did experience a single incident of it happening shortly after my tinnitus went severe, but it didn't return regularly until 1 1/2 years afterwards. I get both the thumps and...

Your dosage is roughly equivalent to 0.5 mg of Clonazepam per day. So you're taking 21 mg per week of Lorazepam. I had an Ativan (Lorazepam) prescription a while back for anxiety, with no noticeable effect on tinnitus. I was prescribed 3 x 0.5 mg per day, but I considered that way too much, so...

I only agree with the few Democrats who have voted in favor of it. Any explanations of opposition have been pretty lame, such as pointing out that other differences give some people an advantage in sports, so it shouldn't matter that men have an advantage in women's sports. Crazy. I don't agree...

Most illegals aren't criminals aside from being in the country illegally. In the grand scheme of things, I don't think they'll deport enough to make a significant impact. It's time-consuming and very costly.

Trump fooled you and the other low-information voters to get your votes. There won't be mass deportation. Trump, along with Musk, supports more immigration: https://nypost.com/2024/12/28/us-news/donald-trump-backs-h-1b-visa-program-supported-by-elon-musk/ The worst president is Donald Trump...

Nortriptyline didn't do anything for my tinnitus or any anxiety or depression-like symptoms at my 50 mg per day dose. So, I didn't see any point in staying on it and weaned off over a year ago. I have had mild hyperacusis that really didn't become evident until 1 1/2 years after my tinnitus...

6 to 8 mg Ativan per day??? My doctor prescribed me 1.5 mg per day, and I thought that was too much. I never took more than 0.5 mg in a day, and no more than 3 times a week, usually less.

I definitely recommend Quviviq over Nortriptyline. Amitriptyline is much better for sleep than Nortriptyline. But I think it's worth trying Quviviq first if you don't need to treat any other conditions treated with Amitriptyline. It works for some people, it doesn't work for others, some people...

Dayvigo is a DORA-class sleep medication. I tried it temporarily at 10 mg, but it didn’t improve my sleep, and I felt groggier in the morning. As a result, I switched back to 50 mg of Quviviq, another DORA-class sleep medication with a shorter half-life. However, I’m not sure how much it...

Really?? I didn't think so. He actually said we would have had better health care if John McCain hadn't voted against the big cuts/changes to Obamacare / ACA. Look it up. It would have made it much more expensive for people, and many millions would have lost coverage. Trump really doesn't...

You believed Trump when he said that. But illegals are not entitled to Social Security or Medicare, and they can't vote.

Yeah, and Trump's tariffs are just an additional tax on American citizens, to whom those costs are passed on to, on top of all of the services and goods inflation we'll see from his deportation plan. In the past, Trump's tariffs actually increased the trade deficit before the end of Trump's...

Remember, Trump couldn't even get the endorsement of his own Vice President (Pence) or others who worked for him during his first term. They think he is dangerous.

It sounds like you support weaponizing the judicial system. Trump's criminal actions brought on these cases against him. Winning an election shouldn't be a "get out of jail" card. He should still have to face prosecution for his crimes at some point. It's a sad state of affairs that a convicted...

No, Trump was criminal in his actions, the the case is strong. It's only being dropped because he's going to be president, unfortunately. "That prohibition is categorical and does not turn on the gravity of the crimes charged, the strength of the Government's proof, or the merits of the...

Appointing someone who is anti-vax and embraces junk science is the last person you would want in that position. So, it figures someone as demented as Trump would do just that.

Well, Bernie doesn't really like Trump even if there might be the very rare thing he might agree with him on. Sanders rips Trump: 'Is this the kind of human being that we want as president?'

Try to think of who would be the worst possible picks for cabinet positions, and it seems all you have to do is look at who Trump picked to get your answers.

Let's remember that the reason the border and immigration problem continued is because the Republicans wouldn't pass a bipartisan negotiated border deal, combined or later even stand-alone. They were set to do it until Trump requested they drop it so that he could use the issue as a campaign...

The size of the country doesn't mean we can't take care of our own citizens. Right now, we have distribution of wealth to the richest, and people don't want that in America. I don't normally watch it, but I saw on a late night show them interviewing some Trump supporters. It was amazing how...

I don't think anyone said that "all" Trump voters were idiots, but it's true that the low IQ, low information voter was more likely to vote for Trump. Polls showed college graduates voted more for Harris. States with fewer college graduates went for Trump. Trump voters think Trump will lower...

There's more than one way to make a point, but I think he was trying to provide some entertainment value, albeit at Caite's expense. J.D. Vance had posted that video to Twitter a while back, saying it was the full Kamala Harris interview. Maybe that's why it was referenced here.

"Flubbed" is putting it kindly. She was driven to depression and suicidal after that response. I think the point is that the majority of Trump voters are low-information, low-intelligence voters. Of course, there are always exceptions, but it allowed Trump to win.

Markets don't like uncertainty, so a quick and decisive election was favorable to the markets. There are plenty of resources online that talk about Trump increasing inflation and that the Fed might have to raise interest rates again. Recently, they had been lowering interest rates since...

Yes, every time I saw the media interviewing a Trump supporter, that's how it appeared to me as well. No one could make a convincing case to support Trump. Comments from people like, "he talks like me." Or they think he's going to lower grocery prices. Lol. Those with low intelligence just...

Some people don’t experience residual inhibition, but I do. This was discussed in Tinnitus Talk Podcast, Episode 21: Can Sound Silence Tinnitus? When I play a series of high-pitched tones at different frequencies with brief intervals of silence in between, I notice my tinnitus volume dropping...

Last time they attempted a partial repeal (the “skinny repeal”), they were only one vote away from success. They did manage to remove the mandate penalty, which led to a lawsuit arguing that, since there was no mandate penalty, the entire law should be deemed unconstitutional. The Supreme Court...

The uneducated and clueless failed the IQ test by voting for this loser, and the rest of us have to suffer because of that. Most of the voters must have an IQ as low as Trump's to be suckered into voting for that loser and voting against their own best interests. This is terrible news for the...

I actually watched Trump on TV at a campaign event rattling on with no substance, no policy, no detail about how he can accomplish anything with his vague promises. He says he only has "concepts" of a plan after all these years. A lot of it was just random comments and incomplete sentences. He...

I posted about this earlier in the thread. He said it during THIS election cycle. Obamacare is even more popular than the last time Trump tried to kill it Also see: Fact check: Trump falsely claims he never wanted to end the Affordable Care Act And Speaker Johnson said a few days ago that it...

I mentioned previous times that Trump wants to get rid of the Affordable Care Act, which provides healthcare for 40 million Americans and additional healthcare protections for many millions more. Now, they are saying they want to get rid of Affordable Health Care in the first 100 days if Trump...

3.75 mg is pretty low. Are you having any side effects from using the med? And is sleep deprivation the only side effect when trying to wean off completely?

I'm close to 3 years in on severe tinnitus and have Ativan 0.5 mg for anxiety. Since benzos build tolerance quickly, I avoid taking it most days, and I normally take it early in the morning on the occasions that I do use it. For sleep, I use Quviviq at bedtime and a piece of a Zolpidem pill...

Yeah, Trump really handled the pandemic poorly, resulting in the deaths of large numbers of American taxpayers whose money he was spending. We can't afford or risk another term of Trump.
