Trump was smart enough to copyright Make America Great Again back in 2012. But only intended on using it when he played golf. But because I looked it up on you tube now I am now being recommended Trump supporter videos. One where a fella travelling in aeroplanes wore a a MAGA hat to see what reaction he would get in California and Canada. No one would sit beside him on a packed planes! :eek: Then I was given recommended videos of CNN and others predictions prior to Trump winning the GOP nominee. It was a skit at the predictions. No chance they said. Then no chance for the presidency they said. The thing that struck me was nearly all these American politician types would have no chance of getting elected in Ireland. With thier fake gleaming white smiles, plastic looks, immaculate hair and god fearing talk. I even saw one thumbnail on youtube 'Trump Chosen By God' I was wondering will the US 'liberal' media (as they say) be more clued in next time? Will Trump be spun as the saviour of the USA after covid19 passes? Their worldview in the USA seems so different to here. It seems impossible to predict. I mean I read "What's the matter with Kansas? : how conservatives won the heart of America" by Thomas Frank (2005)." To try and give myself a gist of it all. But I still find it hard to wrap my head around it all.

Who had him murdered I have no idea but he for sure IMHO was murdered so he could not talk and expose the many high profile people he could put on the hook.

It was only beginning and he was acting like it was all sorted and maybe there'd be a resurgence in the fall. It was like it was already gone. Then obviously massive issues with the police brutality with George, protests, riots, looting, and its obviously a complex problem I've no opinion on how to solve or even if it can be at this stage but he came out and gave a rant about China and just walked off. I couldn't believe he didn't reach out to the people.The lack of empathy is apparent daily, and I think a lack of empathy just doesn't work for someone in his position. You need empathy. It's not about you right now.

His verbal bombshells are louder than ever, but Donald J Trump is no longer president of the United States. By having no constructive response to any of the monumental crises now convulsing America, Trump has abdicated his office. He is not governing. He’s golfing, watching cable TV and tweeting." Sums it up.

Not to mention he clearly isn't experienced in politics to be leading the nation. The past 3 months have shown us that Its like putting a 5 year in the pilot seat and expecting him to land plane once automatic pilot is switched off!

All the people in US and that is the *best* they can get against Trunp? And Trump is the best Republicans can get? In reality both are terrible, and we are into lesser of two evils. If we are being honest, which I seriously doubt.

My sense of it is that the WH wants to be able to say to Michiganders "When that woman from Michigan stopped y'all from being free, and y'all lovely people were forced to protest so beautifully and peacefully by bringing yeer machine guns into the State parliament, dressed like Rambo, remember that The President had yeer back!" They don't give a fig about the actual outcome of the case.
