[Politics] Donald Trump, US President Elect 2025

[T.G]

The conviction is profoundly unsound and subject to appeal. If you were the judge would you jail Trump that could possibly start a war?

Whatever your personal view he was found guilty…he should be sentenced as everyone else would be. Why do you think there would be a war ? Seems highly unlikely

 

[Weststander]

Talk of “war”. Are election bad losers already worrying three months out?

 

[A1X]

If it’s a fair election then Harris is toast.

So just to confirm, if Harris wins there is absolutely no way, no matter the size of the win or evidence presented, that you will accept Trump has lost?

So you accept that he’s going to go to jail?

Not a great look to want someone likely to be in jail to be made president, is it?

That’s clear from the weasel clause “if it’s a fair election”. If Trump loses, then it obviously wasn’t “fair”, somehow.

The man is a convicted felon…delaying his sentencing is profoundly unfair. He should face justice like anyone else. A dangerous precedent!!!

You spelled President wrong

 

[rogersix]

Do you know any MAGA? The ones I know its the MAGA wives that are driving this! Especially the Latinas, they are real firebrands.

why are you so invested in trump?

Lock him up. Lock him up. Lock him up!

Something that I have repeatedly said on this thread to CD and Lasvegan (and anyone else who wonders why anyone who’s not from the US would be remotely interested in the US election ) is the threat to global security a second Trump administration would bring especially vis a vis Ukraine:

Experts increasingly concerned that a Trump win could mean an escalation of the war in Eastern Europe

Even Republican ex-Vice-President Dick Cheney says ‘never again’

When someone as hawkish and right wing as VP Cheney is voting Dem, that really says something.

I believe Trump said that childcare is childcare and it's necessary and that if elected Trump will put heavy tariffs on other countries and raise lots of money which will some how through osmosis create the money and personnel needed by American families to pay for child care. How it will not make it to the pockets of the super rich through tax cuts truly baffles me and many others. But that is Trump thinking.

This is what he actually said:-
Q: What specific legislation will you commit to to make child care affordable?

Trump: Well, I would do that and we're sitting down, you know, I was, somebody, we had Marco Rubio and my daughter, Ivanka… But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I'm talking about that because the child care is, child care couldn't, you know, there's something you have to have it in this country, you have to have it... I want to stay with child care… So we'll take care of it. Thank you

 

[Seagull58]

Only if that 10 year old is a compulsive liar.

Trump doesn't necessarily believe his own guff. If just raising taxes on foreign countries was a way to make America rich again, he'd have done it last time.

He doesn't understand that the foreign countries don't pay the tariffs. The US importers pay the tariffs.

How do people not see that this man is a clown (albeit a dangerous clown from a horror movie).

To Trump and the MAGAs he is seen as left wing.

We just need GWB to put down his paint brushes and come out against Trump.

As Kamala Harris races to capture the Big Mac Voter, the Trump campaign is doubling down on its demand for proof that she worked at McDonald's in college.

“Why won’t they just provide real documentation and proof?” Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said in an email to the Daily Beast. “The onus is on them. What does she have to hide?"

Why would you make that up that you worked at a McDonalds? There would have been better places to fake to work at at the beginning of your work career. Cleaning toilets?

I don't know why he doesn't believe it. After all, it's a "black job". Maybe it's because he says she was Indian at the time and didn't become black till recently. Let's be clear though, this doesn't, of itself, make him weird and racist.

Errr......YES!!!!
