[Politics] Donald Trump, US President

[nicko31]

I hope the **** dies. Soon. He's as much a threat to millions of people as Putin.

Like Putin it’s a question of what would replace him.

US democracy is in a coma, the jury is out whether it will wake up again

His illegal-alien purge allegedly starts tomorrow in Chicago, a city know for its shootings. Could be messy. My money is on 3 cops shot and 7 members of the public. Any other offers?

The fact is these days far more Americans are killed by Americans than aliens, in war or peace.

Some idiot (female) on BBC2 attending the inauguration (studying economics) just asked what they are hoping for from Trump. They're not concerned about women's rights but are really happy that they've got ticktok back.

It's even more silly as Trump was the one who initiated the potential ban on security grounds when last president...

Are people who hope Trump will die in office happy that Vance will then become President?

In his victory rally speech last night Trump made a ton of promises. If there were any whacky promises he made during the election campaign that, with hindsight, he wished he hadn't then you'd never know. He doubled down on all of them, and added a few more for good measure.

Never has a leader set the bar so high before taking office.

The irony was not lost on me that minutes after saying he would kick the leftist woke people out of the military he was introducing The Village People, including the fella in army camouflage gear.

Other interesting bits of the speech was where he listed all the people he'd like to thank, mentioning a ton of people and his in-laws. Vice President JD Vance was near the end, receiving his name check just just before Hulk Hogan, Mel Gibson and Jon Voight.

And as for Elon Musk's "speech"...

15 of the 49 former VPs have gone on to become President, but given Trump's age and his assassination desirability factor we could be looking at 50/50 odds of Vance getting the gig.

They've just interviewed some MAGA guy on BBC who's stated the felony conviction is all fake.

The mind boggles.

All this political madness in the USA makes me so happy to be British.

How the judiciary in any nation can be politically appointed is beyond me.
