Calling something a "deflection" is easy. Anyone can do it. Actually demonstrating why it's a deflection is apparently too difficult for some. I'm sure your comment about Bush and Obama means something to you. Maybe not so much to the rest of us.

Is he claiming that under Trump, the government will fund his Mars mission? -
You don't understand. If a Democrat had been President when Covid hit, the economic consequences would have been their fault.
-
Typical right wing double standard. Obama inherited the worst world financial crisis since the Great Depression, economic consequences are his fault. Trump gets slammed with the Covid epidemic, economic consequences not his fault. Biden inherits Covid epidemic, economic consequences his fault. Unemployment low during Biden administration, doesn't count.

Here's another non threatening comment from Trump: "Former President Trump is coming under intense criticism for a social media post late Sunday in which he threatened to investigate Comcast, the parent company of NBCUniversal, NBC News and MSNBC, over the outlet’s coverage of him should he be elected president again. “They are almost all dishonest and corrupt, but Comcast, with its one-side and vicious coverage by NBC NEWS, and in particular MSNBC, often and correctly referred to as MSDNC (Democrat National Committee!), should be investigated for its ‘Country Threatening Treason,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social website.

I doubt that thousands are being locked up on account of delinquent TV license fees. I found this article, which, while certainly condemning the criminalization of delinquent license fees, did not mention any case where someone was locked up. https://www.theguardian.com/media/2024/feb/29/tv-licence-fee-scandal-1000-people-week-casually-criminalised That said, there are certainly categories like drug offenses, which ought to be decriminalized, or, at worst, have sentences sharply reduced.

Trump's Wild Claims: The Truth Behind the Pet-Eating Conspiracy

In other words, you've got nothing. -
No. I'm citing the report. And the report does note that the EU is using conditionality, to enforce deportation. This means that aid is being withheld from some countries if they refuse to accept deportees from EU nations. Of course the EU nations have a lot more clout in this regard than does the UK.

They're rehearsing in case the upcoming election doesn't go their way.

As much as I might wish the debate would be decisive, I doubt it.

I see you're ignoring the fact that that Trump fanboys predicted that Trump was going to destroy Harris in the debate. Did that happen? As for your characterization of the debate, considering the absolute craziness of Trump as instanced by his claim that babies were being killed after they were born, I'd say it's pretty clear he lost the debate. And if you don't believe me, how about what these Marxists are saying as reported by this Communist media source: House Republicans lament Trump's 'terrible' debate performance: 'Let her get under his skin' House Republicans are privately expressing frustration about former President Trump’s performance in his debate against Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday. Several House GOP lawmakers granted anonymity to speak freely acknowledged Trump "missed" opportunities to effectively attack Harris and tout his own record. A few said it was the prevailing sentiment within the House Republican Conference that Harris successfully baited him on multiple occasions — though most argued it would ultimately have little impact on Election Day https://www.foxnews.com/politics/house-republicans-lament-trumps-terrible-debate-performance-let-her-get-under-his-skin

Even if your characterization was accurate, which it isn't, I recall before the debate the Trump fanboys claiming that he was going to steamroll Harris. That she was a lightweight and didn't stand a chance.

I guess I'm going to have to zero in even more on what you wrote: "That's really what Churchill wanted. " How is one supposed to construe that comment except to mean that preserving the Empire was his primary concern? And what evidence do you have for that? I mean, apart from your mind reading. As Martin Gilbert pointed out, Churchill stood out before the war during the 30's as someone who bitterly opposed Nazi racialism and understood the threat it posed.
