How is any of this making America great?

Trump's popularity is sinking. This war isn't popular. I know people that voted for him 3 times and this is enough. He is going against what he campaigned on and now prices will go up too. Stock market is sinking, inflation is going to go up and endless war.

He could just back out now and end this mess. But it doesn't seem like Iran will let him.
 
The Iran regime will collapse in 3 weeks then Trump will liberate Cuba and officially go down as the greatest ever president. Though the deranged left won't give him any credit. The behaviour of the violent left since the war started has been treasonous. I've seen them openly hoping for American service men and woman to be killed just so they can use it against Trump.

Shameful

Oh wow, just three weeks? That’s incredibly efficient. Regime change usually takes years, but I guess we’ve upgraded to Amazon Prime geopolitics now.

And I like how we’re just casually stacking achievements: collapse Iran, swing by Cuba, wrap it all up before lunch, and boom—greatest president ever. No messy details, no unintended consequences, no decades of history getting in the way. Clean. Simple. Like a movie montage.

Meanwhile, in the real world, Iran is still launching missiles and preparing for a long fight, not exactly packing up in three weeks (Financial Times). And Cuba? It’s already in a slow-moving crisis with blockades and negotiations, not exactly waiting for a quick “liberation tour” (AP News).

But sure, three weeks. Maybe throw in solving inflation and curing traffic while we’re at it. Go big or go home, right?
 
Sure, just check the reddit front page, the biggest leftist violence breeding ground on the internet ( With China owning a large chunk of the site, no surprise ) and you'll find all the evidence your eyes won't be able to handle
So, your idea of evidence is sending someone to a Reddit page? That's funny!!!

No, China does not own Reddit. Reddit is an American publicly traded company (NYSE: RDDT) headquartered in San Francisco.




While no single entity "owns" the entire company, the ownership is distributed among various institutional and individual shareholders. The confusion often stems from a significant investment made by the Chinese tech giant Tencent, but they are a minority shareholder, not the owner.

Key Ownership Facts (as of early 2026):​

  • Publicly Traded: Since its IPO in March 2024, Reddit has been owned by thousands of different shareholders who buy its stock on the New York Stock Exchange.



  • The Largest Shareholder: Advance Magazine Publishers (the parent company of Condé Nast and owned by the Newhouse family) remains the largest stakeholder, holding roughly 30% of the company.



  • Tencent’s Stake: The Chinese company Tencent invested $150 million in 2019. However, as of late 2025 and early 2026, Tencent has been reducing its stake. Current estimates place their ownership at approximately 3% to 5%.

  • Institutional Investors: Major U.S. financial institutions like Fidelity (~7–9%) and Vanguard (~5–7%) hold significantly larger or comparable stakes to Tencent.



  • Voting Control: Reddit’s CEO, Steve Huffman, and other insiders hold "Class B" shares, which give them disproportionate voting power. This ensures that operational control remains with the company's American leadership rather than outside investors.
