The Trump Presidency - Part 2

How horrible it must be for business owners... being forced to hire American citizens and pay them an honest wage.
 


As i previously said when the rejection of courts first raised it's ugly head. If he's going to defy everything, the only options left are dictatorship or pardons. He's going down a road where the entire administration could be arrested should the next president return the country to previous "norms". They are not dumb enough to dismiss this as a concern. So the US is at a cross roads, either they are going to back off and calamity will be avoided, or they are going to launch a coup to install him as dictator or start pardoning people all the way up to the final day.

What Trump is doing is setting them all up for prosecution by the next administration. They know this, they know "revenge" will come for their actions. So they will be planning how to stop that now.
 

Doing a deal to end the war in Ukraine. Trying to buy Greenland. Trying to take the Panama canal back. It's all leading to one scenario, actual war with China over Taiwan in the next few years.

USA have to secure alternative locations to get their vital 49 rare earth minerals that currently come from China.

Ukraine has some of them, Greenland has them in abundance.
 
Where is the f*cking senate? I dig that the house is just a Fox News aduitioning gig for the GOP, but some of these Senators have been around through actual wars, passed actual bi-partisan bills and at least a few of them must be patriots. What the hell are they thinking?

I've heard absolute horror stories from those working in the federal government, they basically have no idea what is going on, who to listen to, and how they should be planning their next few weeks and months. No organisation can exist like that.

They're doing this at such a breakneck rate I don't even fault the dems for having no idea how to respond. There's too much to respond to.

This kind of wanton destruction is something I honestly don't see how you come back from. And America is doing it to itself. It's utterly mind-blowing.

It’s amazing how quickly ethics and values go out the window if you think Elon Musk is going throw millions at your primary opponent next time out.

Our country leader Modi went to meet him couple of days ago. The general feeling here is that current us govt is very strict in negotiations, and doesn't care about anything apart from their profit. People may think Trump is a mad man, but he is very clever and knows exactly what he is doing.

America as we knew it for decades is gone, probably for good, definitely for a while.

America hasn’t been the same since June 2015, and it will definitely not be the same post January 2025. This is the reality with which we are confronted.

Worse: in 4 weeks, Trump has worked on dismantling a system of government that has been in place for decades, and he made the first steps to dismantle the world order that mostly kept us and Europe safe since the 1940s.

Astonishing 4 weeks, in the very worst meaning of the word.
 


Not just is Unz a Nazi/anti-semite, half his website is dedicated to proving Black inferiority on grounds of IQ and crime. I first saw a link to unz during an online argument, it's very possible I argued with this creep Kliger some years ago :lol:
 
My Mrs friend, she's worked for 30 years at the federal level. Land management, water management. She's 5 years from retirement. Some of her colleagues came in to an email saying they were fired last week. Nothing else worked, they couldn't even print off the email.
They were locked out of everything.
Could be her tomorrow.
 
No shit. Doesn't help they literally own the most popular online platforms.
+Local media

Btw I wonder how much money it cost us taxpayers for these golf trips, Superbowl trip and Daytona 500 trips so far. Man is literally stealing from the people for his own amusement and ego and some people think that's a-ok.
 


Butlerian Jihad looking quite appealing.

Again, a guy who is cutting the government on the basis of ctrl-f is supposed to be the Da Vinci-level genius of our time. A random PhD student, working on an obscure topic that has no real world implications, is a thousand times more rigorous when using algorithms, than Musk is with his ctrl-f based government.
 
I believe changing the US' stance on Taiwan was the single most important step Nixon and Kissinger made when normalising relations with China

He THINKS he knows what he is doing. So does my cat.
 
My cat has no idea what's she's doing half the time, but she's knows more than the orange feckwit
Yep and at least my cat would spend 4 years mainly sleeping and licking herself. Which would be far better for the US and the world than 4 years of the angry orange toddler.

Mine was doing that for the first 4 years of the orange idiot and the last 4 of the senile old man!

People don’t think Trump is a bad man, he absolutely is one. He knows (as does his team as governments are much bigger than one face) what he’s doing but that actually makes matters worse when the vision is inherently despicable. If anything, he’s likely to kickstart the decline of the US than anything else. The US didn’t become a superpower on its own - it did so with a lot of collaboration and strong messaging on values (whether they acted in accordance with it is wither matter) and aspiration. And it sure as hell won’t maintain that position if it acts like King Geoffrey all of a sudden.

And Modi, our very own supreme leader, is hardly a barometer to use. The bloke is barely educated and needs teleprompters in once in a decade press conferences where he gets rattled and goes red in the face. He makes Trump look highly intelligent. But they’re cut from the same bigoted authoritarian cloth.
