The Trump Presidency - Part 2

Has there been even one positive help the p

I just can't get how he attacks every group of people and they still vote for him. Women...Heck yeah I'll vote for him. Immigrants and anyone of colour.....Heck yeah we love him. Military......my leader. Catholics....he's the one. Anyone that wants a habitable earth...fk yeah let it burn. Any scientist.....fk science. Is there any group except white fascist men that he hasn't attacked.
 
okay, calm down

one of the cops working his case is now in jail for extortion, and two others suspected of corruption

he created an existential threat to the US government so it seems a bit naive to trust one side of the story on this one

let's see what he has to say when he gets out

The evidence and message dumps which were pulled from Silk Road were not disputed by defensive council in court. What happened exactly isn't 100% known but those messages were 100% real.

Stop trying to downplay his conviction by throwing out irrelevant information to the case. The DEA agent was jailed for concealing payments from Silk Road and for selling information regarding the Silk Road investigation to Ross himself.

If anything he tried to hinder the task force work which was multi agency and involved hundreds of people. You reducing all of that to a single persons wrongdoing is silly.

For all migrants visibly non-white people, it is required to carry your most recent I-94 along with some ID proof at all times outside the house.

Previously it would lead to a hassle and a few hours of detention, now, the risks are higher, with due process being stripped and with more active cop presence.


It's actually legally been required all green card holders must carry their green card at all times which has been a law for some time but hardly ever enforced, I guess this just takes that a little bit further with visitors
 
So we’ve now called for an American born bishop to be deported, put a blackout on communications from the CDC, NIH, and FDA, and we’ve got the CEO of JPMorganChase telling us to “get over it” because the Trump tariffs are gonna do what every single person to ever read the definition of a tariff knew would happen & cause inflation to rise…

Top marks folks. Awesome.

Look on the bright side mate, he's 4 days in to his Presidency. That means there is only 1,458 days of his 2nd term left.
 
For me Trump is a symptom of a lot that’s wrong with our politics and people’s mindset, not a cause. People agree with him.
Most of all I blame the so called centrist and left politicians. When you don’t solve peoples problems, this is what happens. Regardless of Trump our democracies are heading one way.
So blame the left and center for the hell the right is unleashing, yeah that makes perfect sense.

Republicans do not cooperate, vote against everything and then try to take credit when Democrats pass legislation that benefits red states.

Bernie Sanders should have run instead of Hillary. That was a failure.
 
So, Trump didn't end the Ukranian-Russian war on day one, shocker.

Now he threatens, you guessed it, tariffs on Russia if they don't negotiate.


Does US and Russia have any significant amount of trade anymore though? What left is there to sanction/put tariffs on, at this point?

Not much these days, shy of $500 million per year either way
 
Dems should of told Biden two years ago he's done and started pushing Bernie.
Bernie's chance was 2016, he's even older than Biden, no way he was ever getting elected as President after then

Nah, I don't think I will, thanks

sorry if this upsets you, which it evidently does, but I'm choosing to remain open -minded to the fact he didn't get a fair trial given the cops on his case have proven to be corrupt

now, with the greatest respect, leave me alone, because I don't care if you believe otherwise
 
it’s also an important lesson in what can happen when widespread public sentiment on certain issues is effectively ignored.
Or manipulated by propoganda, predominantly by right and far right new and old media, for political gain.
 
I guess I meant it more like "do you want to"

well trump is helping make my decision fast!!

Trump administration’s abrupt cancellation of scientific meetings prompts confusion, concern​


A flurry of scientific gatherings and panels across federal science agencies were canceled on Wednesday, at a time of heightened sensitivity about how the Trump administration will shift the agencies’ policies and day-to-day affairs.

Several meetings of National Institutes of Health study sections, which review applications for fellowships and grants, were canceled without being rescheduled, according to agency notices reviewed by STAT. A Feb. 20-21 meeting of the National Vaccine Advisory Committee, a panel that advises the leadership of the Department of Health and Human Services on vaccine policy, was also canceled. So was a meeting of the Presidential Advisory Council for Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria that was scheduled for Jan. 28 and 29.

Study sections is where grant proposals written by students/professors get sent for acceptance/rejection. No study section = no new grant money = once existing grants run out, no new scientific research.
Mine was rejected last year, we were going to resubmit this year. Don't see the point right now.

So instead of reforming and trying to get their act back together Democrats are joining in.
 
Can't really say, I'm not British and I didn't really follow the vote that closely back then.
Just people who can’t be bothered getting off their arses to vote and then complaining. ;) Obvs a generational thing. Don’t particularly care about the outcome but really…
