GloriousGbola:I beg to expand the meaning of useful idiot by this example. Chuck Schumer in March 2020 during the hearing of Roe vs Wade stood outside the Supreme Court and said "I want to tell you Gorsuch. I want to tell you Kavanaugh. You have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.” That was pure arrogance on his part whoever his puppeteer is . Karma strikes. The Acting AG has opened a criminal investigation into those remarks. Schumer received a letter of inquiry yesterday. That's the perfect example of a useful idiot for the left. Schumer. He will face the music alone in his zest to please baby murderers Need more examples? I'm here. |

GloriousGbola:What have I copy pasted. I only pasted his actual quote. The rest is my superior mond breaking down a simple phrase. |

A few weeks ago y’all were pro “freedom of speech” Now you’re rejoicing the president is attacking the media. basilico: |

budaatum:Absolutely right. And Basil & co do not have an any stake in America. It’s all entertainment and winning arguments for them. Raum strikes me as one of those long term republicans who don’t care to withdraw support for a catastrophic candidate out of stubbornness and the desire not to lose face. I noticed Mr Okehie has gone silent on here. I saw him sharing some of my posts. I wonder if that indicates a change of perspective, or that he’s simply quite too busy these days. Either way, I wonder if he is on here long enough to see what these dudes are sharing on other threads. The logical conclusion of a Trump presidency is a destabilized America. Without any allies. Who would support that except enemies of America and those who don’t know what they are talking about? I remember when they used to talk about the anti Americanism of the left because we dared to complain about racism and American prejudices. Only people who love something would want it to be better. But I digress. |

Ibime:But the underpinnings are concerning. Depending on the language, a 25% across the board tariff on Canada and Mexico would be devastating for the US. I think the market is waiting on the language. But some Hedge Funds have already started shorting the US Economy. Where are Trump's minders? I can't believe the Republican party has decided to entrust the health of the US economy to the hands of a manchild.

Trump’s handlers do not care about America. They’re orchestrating a big pay day . They’ll cash out at the end IjeBos: |

IjeBos:Definitely not experience. That’s for sure. I can see that. He seems like he reads and communicates his ideas across well. If you have any experience in anything he talks about, you can see quickly that he’s speaking from a place of reading about it not actually experiencing it. However his anti American stance is something he tries to hide when he comes here. I never paid attention to that until now. And it all makes sense now. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by IjeBos(m): 8:35pm On Feb 01, 2025 |
cococandy:I assume some/a lot of them are. But, a US economic crash is not in everyone's interests. There has to be some Republicans on the hill who want to get reelected. Or do they think they own the media channels well enough to propagandize their way out of it? |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by cococandy(f): 8:37pm On Feb 01, 2025 |
IjeBos:A lot of people can be short sighted. Money now. Deal with the fall out later There has to be some Republicans on the hill who want to get reelected.Time will tell. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by IjeBos(m): 8:38pm On Feb 01, 2025 |
cococandy:Exactly. I didn't know about his anti American stance. That would make sense. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico: 8:40pm On Feb 01, 2025 |
cococandy:What are you talking about? Those are not media housess. They are just licenced propaganda outlets . The are the PR wing of the Democrat Party. They have "anchors' who are just activists masquerading as journalists. Their time is up. |

Imagine. The same administration that wanted these Air Traffic Controllers resign immediately, now there was an accident are now running their mouths about not enough ATCs. This same type of thing is playing out in all industries that are regulated by the Fed. government. The difference is that for most of them we won't see the scope of their failures immediately like this. Just a day before a deadly midair collision at Reagan National Airport outside Washington, D.C., employees at the Federal Aviation Administration were sent an offer to resign with eight months’ pay.

basilico:Not to lay credence to this nonsense you just typed. But out of curiosity let me indulge you. Do you think any ruling party should have opposition? |

raumdeuter:What sort of petty response is this? Which one concern me with who you no like? I am talking about your political naivety. Taking sides with the extreme wing of your "party" (who don't like blacks, and Latinos) and helping to hand power to them is political naivety of gargantuan proportions. I don't care what you call it. What you call flushing of DEI by Trump is interpreted by these people as "go back to Africa..... every one of you". And so anything goes. The fact that I have to spell this out to you is shocking me sir. |

happney65:You would think we were living in different worlds. These brain-washed right-wing-niggers siding with Qanon peops, trying to convince all and sundry that they stand for something. |

Straight into my vault. Maine almost 40% of their illegals voted in 2024.

cococandy:Yes definitely. Constructive opposition not destructive. And every nation needs a mechanism for changing leadership periodically set in law.. |

cococandy:All of them are the same. No billionaire loves to throw their money where they can not have leverage. There is no difference between them, the only one difference is that Elon is open about his own while others care to operate from the shadows. Most of the WEF and UN agencies operate according to their template too, not just the US politicians. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by Livelystone01: 9:50pm On Feb 01, 2025 |
cococandy:Wow! Trump is a clown at this rate with the multiple EOs but on other issues about the 3rd term and Vance and other issues, that's basillico's template and you just sounded like him. |

cococandy:The hypocrisy is evident but he is just a troll. |

Livelystone01:Oh yea he’s just an innocent clown. That’s all it is. Nothing more serious than that 🤦🏽♀️. Have you read all or some of project 2025? Did you read it and then thought he had nothing to do with it? Because they’ve been loud about what they’re planning to do. Just because you guys don’t want to accept how deranged their plans are, you’re playing it down. They are already doing it and you are chucking it up to him just being a clown. Do you think him removing agency directors and gutting non-partisan organizations is just a clownish funny act? Which part of the post you just quoted isn’t already in play? That they are trying to take women’s rights to bodily autonomy and reproductive healthcare? What do you think the end result of that would be? Less women in the workplace. no? That they are challenging the qualifications of anyone who isn’t white? what do you think the end result of that would be? What do you understand by Trump’s speech where he said illegals are taking black jobs when we know illegals mostly work in the fields? Am I the one who introduced the bill for 3rd term? Man I can’t do this both siding of things you seem committed to doing. Your inability to recognize that they have moved passed the stage of friendly debate and are now trying to get rid of anyone they feel will stand in their way of achieving their 4th reich is concerning. |

cococandy:It is surprising, or maybe not, that you read my posts and had a wildly off-base assessment. The US foreign policy for the past several decades has been atrocious. You may not care as much about your roots, but I do. The Global South has been treated badly by the US and the time to tolerate, give excuses, or hope for the best are over. From interventionism to economic warfare, the Global South has had enough. Interestingly, American citizens have little input in the actions of the State Department. It is the desire of the collective Global South that Washington and its G7 club of hyenas are brought down several pegs so that the relentless sociopolitical offensive can subside. Hopefully, that'll spark some introspection that'd bring serious changes in how the US relates with the South. And then you said in a different post “ I'm also now looking forward to the next crash of the US economy.”Yep, you're cherry-picking statements with intent to mislead. The US economy has troughs and crests. It's a normal cycle. We've had the longest period of economic growth going all the way back to WW2. We're overdue for a crash. Now, in the immediate post-Cold War era, the US polity had no powerful rivals and was relaxed in how it handled economic downturns. With multipolarism now a foregone conclusion and the rise of BRICS, we're back to the Cold War era. Back then, economic downturns elicited a fierce response to get back to growth as quickly as possible. I anticipate a repeat/return of that policy MO. Such that the next crash will be a stunning opportunity to add zeroes to my net worth. You put a lot of act into appearing objective but your anti American sentiment can’t help but manifest itself inbetween the lines.America is fallible. America has made avoidable mistakes. An intense competitive environment will benefit America. It has spent decades trying to enforce a horrendous echelon where it unilaterally picks winners and losers. That era is naturally ending. To meet the demands of the new world order, America needs far-reaching reforms. Everyone recognizes this. And it is why Trump won the election and the political and business class have been mildly supportive of his agenda. Cutting waste and reducing bloat. Slashing the illegal alien population and reforming legal migration routes. Taking a sledgehammer to the existing regulatory regime. Rewriting its economic rules of engagement with allies and foes alike. These moves and more are necessary to compete with an ascendant Global South and my financial health requires their rapid implementation sooner than later. The Dems had a chance to hit reset, but they do not have the political will. They prefer to focus on inanities like flying pride flags in embassies, putting tampons in men's bathrooms, organizing drag and commemorative shows, coining new acronyms to feed a wildly overrated consultancy complex, and pursuing the same old, tired routines that have caused so much pain in the Global South. You guys had America on a death spiral. For your sake, pray that Trump's reforms work. -Lord |

cococandy:Maybe you need to see that I wasn't joking when I called him a clown. I have been against the EOs from day 1, not just for him but for all presidents. And yes, I can stay out of the warzone the two sides play here, that's why we have Independents. They do not need to be deep into any party to support or speak against a policy. As a matter of fact, there's no difference between the right guys you condemn and your circle. Both of you are different sides of the same coin. |
