trump like all presidents will have a circle of knowledgeable people around him to advise.

But most other Presidents have the gumption to listen to that advice! 

Trump does not!

I believe that disparaging a man based on skin colour is, umm what's that word that starts with R?

 

Silly me, that only applies selectively. 

Wow, I didn't know that Trump was born with orange skin and there's nothing he can do about it. I had assumed that he was applying some kind of bronzing lotion. Thanks for clearing that up.

Remember, they called Bush hitler too. If Trump dropped dead and DeSantis was the front-runner, they'd be calling hitler. 

 

The left lies, it's all they have.

Or...I didn't know that most of the people in the world have basically pale skin and apply some kind of lotion or cream to darken it. Silly me.

No doubt you apply the same standards to people born as men who believe they are women and there is nothing they can do about it?

 

No doubt they are adding fake breasts or something? 

 

Let's all mock them.

 

Truly progressive.

There is, in fact, scientific evidence to support that the brains of transexuals are different from the rest of us. As far as I know, there is no evidence to support the fact that applying bronzer to one's epidermis is a biologically determined behavior.

Neither is brown. 

 

You would mock someone for darkening their skin and identifying as brown skinned ?

 

Shame on you.

 

Liberal? Hardly...

Actually, whether mocked or not, people who claim to be victims on account of their race when they are impostors deserve to be exposed. What race is Trump claiming to belong to?

[spidermike007]

No doubt if given the opportunity after breaking dozens of laws over the past decades, he would carry his toxic agenda much further. Towards fascism, no doubt. He is a huge danger, and he must be stopped.

Remember Mitt Romney and John McCain?

 

Concerning "W", the Left never said anything as bad about him as Trump has said.

Maya Angelou said it best: When someone tells you who they are, believe them.

 

trump is a corrupt, criminal, self-serving, dictator wannabe. He is willfully ignorant and driven by too things: woeful personal insecurity and vindictiveness. He absolutely wishes he were a dictator.

 

As his former golf caddie and White House Adviser Dan Scavino said before 20 January 2021, 'the boss' has no intention of leaving; he doesn't care about the rules'.

 

That is not someone who believes in democracy and the peaceful transfer of power.

 

trump has already stated that he would invoke the Insurrection Act and put the military in the street if people opposed him. How funny, given that he incited the terrorist attack and attempted coup back in 2020 and 2021. SC Smith, who can add charges to the existing indictment, should add Sedition, as it is a capital offense that carries the death penalty.

 

I always wonder how trump's cult justifies 6 January, the fake elector scheme, the attempt in Georgia to 'find me 11,780 votes', the theft of highly classified documents including TS, SCI, Codeword, HCS, and RD. trump called his goobers to DC on 6 January, Tweeting "It will be WILD!" for what purpose? He told them to march to the Capitol on 6 January for what? Buy souvenirs? One has to be a dumb as a trumper to believe trump's actions were aimed at anything less than overturning the election and destroying US democracy.

 

The cult has spent 3 years trying to rig the system for next time. They've changed voting laws in many States, gerrymandered wherever they can, and made some rules that will severely limit who can vote. The current Speaker is a pure Talibangical, a moron who insists the Earth is only 6000 years old, that Jeebus looks like the Italian Renaissance version, and that the US is a Christian nation. Like Bimbobert and MTG, Johnson is 'sick of that separation of church and State thing', and believes the US should be run via the writings of a Bronze Age collection of fantasy and pabulum than the US Constitution. It seems to have escaped all of those goobers that almost all of the Founders were atheists and specifically made sure no religion would be part of the new nation.

Headlines blaring warnings about how a second Trump presidency could slip toward dictatorship on Monday prompted a stiff pushback from allies of the ex-president, who is topping GOP primary polls just weeks before the Iowa caucuses.

The Washington Post, The Atlantic and The New York Times each published stories referencing a “Trump dictatorship” in recent days, arguing a new Trump presidency posed a threat to democracy. The Times wrote a second Trump term likely would be more radical than his first.

 

“All of these articles calling Trump a dictator are about one thing: legitimizing illegal and violent conduct as we get closer to the election,” Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), a Trump ally, wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “Everyone needs to take a chill pill.”

“It’s August 2016 all over again. Skyrocketing cost of health care has millions worried. President Trump’s Dem. opponent off the campaign trail & hiding from the press,” senior Trump adviser Jason Miller wrote on X.

“Dems & their media allies have given up on debating issues & have shifted to name-calling & rhetorical fearmongering,” he added.

The Atlantic announced Monday the magazine’s January/February issue would be dedicated to what a second Trump term would mean for immigration, civil rights, the Justice Department, climate and more. The magazine’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, wrote an editor’s note titled, “A Warning,” to introduce the series.

The New York Times on Monday published its latest piece in a series focused on what a second Trump term might mean for the country. In it, the reporters noted Trump’s rhetoric on the campaign trail “has attracted growing alarm and comparisons to historical fascist dictators and contemporary populist strongmen.”

And a Washington Post opinion column penned by editor-at-large Robert Kagan headlined, “A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable. We should stop pretending,” made an extensive case that Trump’s reelection could feasibly set the U.S. on a path to becoming a dictatorship.

 

FULL STORY

 

Yeah it's the other side that has been engaging in violence     typical.       Nothing says dictatorship like having the police attack peaceful protestors  in Lafayette Square for a photo op.  Hey I must have missed the "stiff pushback"

An entire party except for a few caved to an ignorant babbling wannabe dictator. He's trash and so are his followers.

Whatever Trump (or Biden) might be, they are good for ramping up the number of pages on forums. 'Trump stands for [whatever you like]' 'Biden stands for...'  Biden needs help in standing.?

Just a walk on the bright side.

True. Typical feminine hysteria against the political opposition. Abe Lincoln himself--and his wife--got the same treatment or worse. Trump's not very effectual anyway, far less so than demented Biden, who's got the State, media, and tech behind him to help inflate the currency, impose destructive mandates, and silence critics.

 

So, nothing much for our libtards to worry about, but the demonization and drama gives life meaning. It would be nice if Trump's p*ssed off enough finally to crack down on leftist thuggery in its various manifestations, as he failed miserably to do when in office. But he probably won't. Mostly bluster.

 

Relax. It's a great day in Pattaya. :)

"leftist thuggery " Yeah they were leftists on 1/6/21  .   Abe Lincoln crushed seditionists trying to compare a orange traitor to him hysterical and pathetic.

   State media and tech   to silence critics -once again hysterical and pathetic.  

Demented Biden - more hysterics.

 

Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty.

Knowledgeable and competent people like General Milley. Who Trump wants executed for treason.

 

Trump like all the authoritarian and dictatorial losers can't handle knowledgable competent people. They surround themselves with sycophants, which they burn through and destroy one after the other. Everyone who came close to Trump over the last few years at least is now in the pits, reputations and careers ruined. Despised by all decent folks. And finally rejected by Trump when they didn't kiss his ring. Sorry for the English English pun.

 

He has himself, I have seen and heard him, issued the most dire threats to the US system of government and American society the country has ever seen. He's been very up front about it.

 

Be careful what you wish for - you might just get it. And the sad MAGA acolytes are the ones who will suffer most under his 'policies'. Simply because they are the weakest and they're groveling at the feet of bullies.
