[Politics] Donald Trump, US President

Europe needs to put the kind of resources into defence we put into Covid. America is gone, we can't rely on them.

The USA is after some kind of trade deal with us that raids all our data, they can foxtrot oscar

Erm. We are broke. Better to just sort it with the US.

I'm sure Elon and his army of Incel hackers can get the data without the need of a trade deal.

 

[A1X]

Yes, why do you think otherwise?

How does it benefit the American people to force US Government bodies to take out contracts with Starlink?

How does it benefit the American people to scrap anti-corruption laws?

Evidence so far doesn’t show much quality in that team

If the rhetoric is that the USA no longer wants to be the “World police” (despite it being them who put themselves in that position in the first place), wants to stop the wars and killing, then why isn’t it the same for the Israel conflict? Why are they arming Israel? $4 billion sent the other day, and Israel are a country who probably doesn’t need it.

What’s the real difference between aiding Ukraine and funding Israel?

Just a quick reminder to all of us not to allow this thread to become diverted onto ME conflict issues. Thanks.

They want to end all wars but Israel is an exception. Meanwhile the world police resources are being diverted into taking over Gaza, Canada, Greenland and Panama.

Europe is like the fella with 2 black eyes………..

Should’ve listened the first time.

By the way the U.K. is a trillion in the red courtesy in large part to pushing resources into COVID. Rachel has a 22bn black hole, where are the resources you speak of?

The US doesn't need to worry about Gaza for a few months, let starvation take it course first

Remember pal Brexit cost us 4% of GDP a lot more than Covid

Oh yeah, sorry.

Yes, why do you think otherwise?

Where to start.

Oh yeah, sorry.

No problem - it’s impossible to disentangle it all but thanks.

Remember Trump was a draft dodger, not surprising

 

[Berty23]

I'm not sure if this was shared after Trump posted it on Truth Social Monday:

Obviously, Elon retweeted to show that he agrees

And to prove they don’t like rape gangs they have taken Tate brothers out of Europe where they were facing criminal charges for all sorts of things including sex crimes. Europe punishes people like this, America offers them a free pass. Mental.

Under our feet. Cheap energy is a key driver of GDP, and it isn't cheap when you are importing all your coal, gas, oil, batteries, solar panels and wind turbines.

The upside is that Europe is growing stronger.

Trump’s childish pro-Russia stance is isolating the U.S.

Until they get an adult in the White House, let’s keep as far away as possible from those Russian assets in the White House.

Again more bollox. Why keep peddling this shit about not being a landslide or only 49.8% voted for Trump? This was the second highest vote count in US history. The other being the dodgy covid election.
Trump might have only won by a few million but it was the manner in how he won. You completely ignore every swing state went red. You completely ignore blue states swinging more to the red. You ignore Trump picking up more votes from minorities than any republican US president in 6 decades. You completely ignore Harris not flipping a single county in the US not seen since 1932. You completely ignore Trump increasing his votes in every election.
By the way Texas got more redder this election. Alabama I don't know about but it's Trumpy land end of. That isn't going blue anytime soon trust me.
Trump won the trifecta. Not bad when you think he is suppose to be that hated globally. Well on here he is anyway lol.
Figures can be manipulated but when you break it all down and look at the real stats this was a landslide.
Harris even buggered home early on election night because it really was good night Vienna. Instead of conceding she said they were still counting votes and it was not done. Right ok Cackles.

I repeat she lost in a landslide. The majority of Americans hated how the democrats went to far left. Open borders, DEI,high inflation, fake news, weaponization of lawfare etc.Trump appealed to the working class people of America and social media played a huge part in Trump's win.

MAGA and proud

But how does it benefit you?

 

[The Clamp]

Yes, why do you think otherwise?

Okay, you’re absolutely either a Russian bot or a performance artist. Nice one

He's a repeatedly failed, multiple bankrupted, criminally convicted, banned-from-charities, bullshitter of a lying, narcissistic grifter" who's daddy left him his money. He is most certainly NOT a businessman, although lots of his friends are - and they play him like a fiddle, and he thinks that they respect him.
