Donald Trump the Megathread part II - Mod Warning updated in OP 12/2/26

Oh come on. He’s nearly 80 and never faced consequences once in his life. He already instated a puppet in Venezuela. He already has an oil embargo on Cuba and the people there are suffering severely and he said he’s going there next.

He started this war without UN approval. He’s a bully ****. He needs this to blow up in his face or he’ll never stop. After Cuba, where else will he go? Greenland and after that who knows. He needs to lose the midterms this will help with that because if he continues on abated we’ll all suffer more in the long run. He’s a cancer , he doesn’t deserve to get bailed out. F him

The Straits of Hormuz situation is totally on Trump. He started this war and was totally unprovoked into doing it.

Im not his fanboy. Came into this post and posters are delighted the lanes are closed, millions of people will suffer because they hate Trump and want to see him fail at any costs. One posters laughing because Trump asked for support, while it will affect his own work, bank account and his family .Now thats stupid.

….

Nobody is delighted. But they are well aware that if they do get involved it won't be appreciated, recepritataed or even acknowledged.

Has Trump acknowledged that he shouldn't have gone into this without consulting his allies? Has he put forward any long term solutions apart from other countries bailing him out?

How about he agrees to hold Russia responsible for the damage they have caused in Ukraine, agrees to stop with the tariff nonsense and agrees that the US does need its allies and he can't simply stomp about as some type of world president.

Zero criticism of Trump for the mess he has created. Zero consideration of how it plays out long term if Trump is bailed out of this mess, what even bigger mess does he create next.

Sure reads like a "Im not a Trump supporter but" takeand a pretty poor one at that.

I disagree with some of his actions and posts and policys and other I agree with does that make a fanboy if so then I am.

Yea I agree we have no say in the matter, but all he done was ask for support from Ally countries and posters losing there mind over it, some even welcoming the suffering with it being closed . Do you not see how crazy that is.

My ire is them welcoming the suffering just to spite Trump.

Do you see how crazy it is that you are taking a known liar side as if he's asking for help is perfectly normal and should be treated as anything other than the ramblings of a mad man?

He hasn't even really asked, its more a demand. A demand you appear to agree with as you think it is in everyone's interest to get involved even when we know nothing of what is involved or even what Trump will do if we do get involved?

I remind you that Trump has systematically ripped up every agreement. He has attacked the UN, ripped up Climate accords, destroyed world trade with tariffs, continues to debase the EU and if openly siding with Russia over Ukraine.

But you think the best course of action is simply cede to his demand?

Trump doesn't do sharing.

Successes are his alone and failures are everyone else's fault. Every navy in the world turns up in the Straits and it's still his victory. No one does and the failure is Starmers, or Macrons or Bidens or whoever.

People have to stop analyzing Trump and his actions through a prism of logic, pragmatism, self awareness, conscience and most of all, foresight.

None of this exists in his universe. His brain is a melting pot of mental offal and entrails. His mouth just spews endless streams of unintelligible brain spasms. The last one unconnected to the next one.

The only articulated thought in his head is " Is this good for Trump?" If the answer is yes, then everything else are unavoidable consequences for everyone else. Which he's quiet willing to live with. Happy to live with even.

When Trump goes, the next president has no obligation to keep Carr on as a carry-over, as Biden appointees found. I imagine a future where Trump's appointees in Admin posts end up with "deplorable" stamped on their CV's.
