The Trump Presidency - Part 2

Countries like Russia and China will hope that Trump and co accomplish what they dream of - an England in a closed economic relationship with the US and an England even further removed from Europe's economic and military interests. Brexit was just the first play.
Yup. I hope that the UK distances itself from the Trump dictatorship.
 
5'10 apparently. Might be the angle the photo is taken from.

Here Trump is with Prince William. They are supposedly the same height.

What the feck, as if Trump is wearing Blue & Yellow. When was the last time he even wore anything other than a red tie?

It's innocuous shit like that which gives me a glimmer of hope.
Referring to Ukraine? His appointment of Rubio as Sec of State gave me a glimmer of hope in terms of support for Ukraine. Atleast he was very pro-Ukraine before, not sure about now considering everyone seems to be changing their stance to get a better chance of being part of his cabinet.
 
He's going to pardon those insurrectionists as well. Imagine the right wing outrage if a Dem president was doing that for his supporters. Hannity's head would explode on tv.
 
If it d be anyone else I'd assume that was fake but with this guy. Can't wait to see what companies are gonna get access to the Oval Room this time to promote their products as well. How can you possibly expect the rest of the country to be ethical if fkin POTUS just blatantly spits in the face of it. Once again the societal norms damage this clown is responsible for will be the subject of studies for years to come.

It just feels to me like a statement to Putin. I don't care about anything Trump says, his words hold no water whatsoever, but what he wears, his image, that's kind of important to him and he doesn't change his look often. Donning a blue & yellow suit to meet the Ukrainian president while Russia is floundering, after that business with Melania, etc. Feels like a message.

I just hope (glimmer) there's a chance Trump & co could take this opportunity to break free from whatever influence Russia has over them. I'd expect Ukrainian intelligence has been working overtime to see what they can do to help in that regard.

Donald Trump says Prince William 'looks better in person'​

Donald Trump has described the Prince of Wales as a "good looking guy" after a meeting with him in Paris at the weekend.

"He looked really, very handsome last night. Some people look better in person. He looked great. He looked really nice, and I told him that," the US president-elect told the New York Post.

Inspiring words from a world leader.

The aides were concerned Gabbard might leak information about the defector, who had hidden his identity out of fear of reprisals from the Assad regime. Some worried that she might even reveal his identity to someone associated with the Syrian government, which at that point had killed hundreds of thousands of its own citizens, according to human rights groups.

 
His rhetoric towards Canada is genuinely disgusting. Yet there are plenty of Canadians who support him, a man who is openly hostile towards their country.
I mean hell he openly attacks our own country and everything in it insulting ethnic groups, states, cities and the country as a whole questioning anything that used to be sacred and people think that's cool. Id argue he s done more to hurt national pride than any other POTUS. But by making fun of people outside this country too they ll forget about that because it fits with the America feck yeah mindset.

In the case of Canada though I think there is another undertone which is to clearly minimize Trudeau knowing he's extremely likely to be unseated by their version of MAGA. To me it's nothing less than an attempt to influence elections.

Canada will take it, and apologize for it.

Fantastic interview, by the way—Trump’s just exuding that calm, commanding energy.



USA will be in for a fun ride, while you Europeans clutch your pearls and roll your cynical eyes right out of your heads.

:cool:

@Raoul we need a MAGA smiley - make it big, bold and grinning smugly - to capture the moment in all its glory

Why the feck should Canada apologise?

A fun ride, sort of like an adult Disneyland? Man, I have no issue with him winning as it does benefit my own interest, but this level of fanboyism is weird.

His head is exploding about Biden pardoning his son. Imagine a Dem president partonging ANTIFA riotor. Not that this is even a fair comparison because ANTIFA aint rioting in the name of Joe Biden - the J6 rioters were doing it for Trump and were lied to and whipped up into a frenzy by him.

Can you see now how the Biden pardon of his son is understandable when Trump is saying the congressmen that sat on the Jan 6 committee should be jailed...

He would have gone after Hunter too, just so they can use him as a political punch bag for the next four year. Red meat to the base and a distraction from the Trump chaos.
 
Yeah but what if I hold a valid USICS student visa.

Aren’t there bureaucratic levers he’d have to go through to restrict valid visa holders?
The only people guaranteed entry by USCIS are citizens and permanent residents. Any other visa basically permits you to ask to enter. USCIS officers can deny you entry, they don’t have to let you in and you have no right of appeal.
