Donald Trump the Megathread part II - mod warnings in OP, Updated 18/03/25

This thread is unreadable on boards for me so I'll leave this here. I know it's from last time but all the same.

In fairness there's nearly always an innocent explanation for these things

Aye it's no big deal, I do it to my kids as I drop them at the school gate so they know I love them so much.

Is Musk a Nazi? Probably not. Is he a wannabe edgelord with zero self esteem? 100%, to the point where his fragile ego couldn't handle taking a bit of stick online that he purchased a maxed out video game account to try and claim he's one of the best in the world.

He done a Nazi salute because he thinks it's funny.

Apparently God saved him so the taliban could get their hands on these innocent people.

It's going to get nasty over there. I think the problem is that migration has been an issue that no one would deal with has resulted in a lot of resentment taking hold. The pendulum is has now swung back the other way with the proposed major clampdown.

This term I suspect will change American government a lot more than his first

going to put the child hormone treatment from brainwashed parents to the end and men in women's sports, what an absolute gem of a president. Whatever you want to do after you turn 18 im all for it, not crazy parents.

Trump your a magnificent human

The US has mutated into a total mess …. a mess that has been coming for years …. we are in their era of Caligula/Nero or the Wars of the Roses/Tudor era …. an era of chaos, excess and instability …. all empires fall from grace and this is the turn of the American one ….

When you look at the other powers in the world that are the equal of the US you see consistency …. Putin's Russia has a consistent view of the world and stays with it ….. Xi's China has a consistent view of the world and stays with it ….. the US and thus most of the West sees chaos ….. every time an American president changes policy gets reversed …. deals broken ….. risky policy adopted …. and the rest of the world is laughing at it ….. especially Russia and China ….. no one sees them as trustworthy and they are like a so-called 'friend' who blows hot and cold !! ….

Over the last 8 years ….. 4 each from different administrations ….. there was big talk and nothing truly positive or great was done …. only expansion of wars in the world ….. big talk is all we hear ….. the last 3 inauguration speeches were big on big talk ….. followed by chaos ….. especially when both parties controlled different parts of government ….

When one president's positive policy is reversed by another's negative policy ….. when 2 parties cannot put country before party ….. when foreign warmongering against Iran means more to the regime than jobs for the people ….. and when the interests of big tech billionaires are put before education, health and the rule of fair law ….. then that country has failed ….. democracy has failed ….. and suddenly the one party rule of a Putin or a Xi or a Saddam Hussein looks better ….

As it stands the US is the world's premier failed democracy …. and this has its roots in their godawful 2 party system where the 2 parties have divided the people dangerously ….. this division may have been accelerated by 9/11, the Iraq war and so-called 'Tea Party' extremism ….. it may have been furthered by social media conspiracy theories ….. but it has placed the US into a dangerous decline ….. a civil war, a breakup of the country and a lawlessness could creep into this place before long ….. the only way it can be saved is if the Republican and Democratic parties are disbanded and replaced with 4-5 parties with a coalition system of government ….. extremism aka far right has lead America down a dangerous path and both parties are far right these days ….. both will deny it but their warmongering acts of the last number of decades proves it and that they are NOT on the side of the people ….. when each president comes out on inauguration day pretending to be on the side of the people …… they lie …..

Well that was one crazy press conference as he signed all those orders. Pardoning 1500 January 6th rioters, TikTok, Threatening to send troops into Mexico. Taking back Panama Canal. Going to get Denmark to give them Greenland. Clearly sees the US and NATO as different and wants them to up spending to 5% and rebalance the 200bn extra the US has given in aid to Ukraine or "there is a big ocean between us". Leaving the WHO. Announcing he is thinking of a 100% tariffs against Spain and the other Brics countries for what they are planning to do against the US. Big tariffs on the EU unless the EU buy energy from the US.

But the two stand out WTF!!! Moments were then he said North Korea has great potential for condos because it has lots of sea front land. And then the fact that Gaza is destroyed and all the people are dead means it has great development potential with seafront land.

We're screwed as a planet.

Remember the whole "Drain the Swamp", 3 of the richest people on the planet sat in prominent roles at today's show.

MAGA'ts got played, the upsetting thing is they're dragging everyone else down with them.

Jesus the noise of the pen signing that stupid signature of his is hard to listen to.

Well, its been a helluva day. Ole Bonespurs has been scratching away with his sharpie pen to beat the band.

But I hope that his friends the Justices of the Supreme Court aren't going to regret swearing him in earlier, because pretty well everything he has signed in the last few hours is going to be going in front of them as challenge cases for the next 2 years.

And just to deal with them, the SC are going to have to order suspensions of a lot of what he's doing, just so they get a chance to catch up and properly consider each case.

That Musk fella thinks he is Darth Vader and Hugo Drax combined …..
