This sub-forum is quiet almost like half the posters are missing - since the election

Trump Election Syndrome.

[novacova]

Recovery of being mentally demoralized takes some time for some. Perhaps in the future being mentally prepared and investing emotions in politics will keep them on top of their game.

[KhunLA]

Not sure about the OP's thought that forum is now 'quiet'.  A bunch of new threads, of 'what if' and what the lefties' prediction of pending policies and doom that with follow when Trump takes over the office.

 

Damn good crystal balls they have.  All BS of course.  All things they predict, he didn't do last administration.

 

So go figure 

[JonnyF]

In the last few days it has really sunk in to me how massive Trump's victory was. It could change the political direction of not only the US but Europe as well. Liberalism has been rejected despite huge MSM support. 

 

This could be the straw that broke the Woke camel. Everyone is sick of the gaslighting and insults. Nazi this Fascist that. It doesn't work.

 

I suspect they are realising this as well. 

 

Also I suspect some posters are "professional" posters and now the battle has been lost the work has dried up. Not fault of the forum but sometimes the sludge slips through the cracks. 

 

Some notable posters are either very quiet or disappeared. Great times.

I rationalize that a few of them must be getting paid, not only is their ideology wrong but they will fight to the death for it here like it will make a difference

At long as Trump fails to meet their doom and gloom predictions these posters will have little to write about.

[proton]

Worry not they will soon be back moaning about everything Trump does. If he solved world poverty they would be crying that it took him too long.  Last time he was called out for not banning flights from China in the covid crisis and not protecting the USA, when he did a few weeks later they were calling him a racist.

Yes. One particular poster stands out. Always has to have the last word even when they are clearly wrong.

 

I am not sure if that's because they are a wfh professional poster or because they are an ageing liberal American woman with a chip on their shoulder.

 

I suspect both.

Majority of actual US voters have chosen to ignore trump's ethical and moral flaw and expect him to further improve the economy and address immigrant issues. So be it, have to see what difference a trump government makes to their quality of life, together whether Project 25 is implemented. If Americans don't care if an an authoritarian government comes to the fore; on your heads. You will note all the alarm bells concerning Harris supporter violence has not occurred, nor the whining about Stolen Election blah, blah.

Never underestimate the Lefts response. Resistance is coming! In the past it started peacefully but never always ends that way!

I don't mean that I am torn, but on one hand I might benefit from this election as it may affect favourably my USD pension and give Israel a window of opportunity to eliminate the rag head threat for a couple of decades, while on the other hand seeing that the US has chosen the path of utter mediocrity by voting for a senile loud imbecile affects me greatly.

America was getting WAY out of hand.

 

It was the GOOD PEOPLE, the caring people, who repudiated the Alien Agenda of the.... Bazaar-Party (AKA the Dems).

 

America voted NOT for Trump, but for a return to some semblance of normalcy.

 

Fringe Values of the Dems....on Nov 5th.....

BIG TIME, as Trump might have said.

Also, Gamma predicted a Landslide for Trump.

And, Gamma was not wrong.

Thanks for the link which clearly outlines an authoritarian agenda. trump is a proven liar and provider of misinformation each and every day. One item caught my eye from your link: which to me is  cruel and vindictive, no surprise, I'm sure there will be many other similar announcements including many if not all elements from Project 25.

GOP certainly tried very hard to or did block Obama and Biden Administration legislation. It seems trump is heading to total power, including control of the Judicial processes, so you're OK. If I'm still alive will be interesting to see how the US ends up after four years of trump. I have a strong suspicion not in a good place for a democratic society or indeed for other Western societies.

Oh...we absolutely care if an authoritarian government takes over. Which is exactly why we elected Trump.

 

But you're correct we don't care about minor details of Trump's personality. What you are witnessing is not about Trump, despite how the legacy media and radical left want it to appear. If you think it is about Trump, get out of your echo chamber.

 

This is about rebelling against the WEF/globalist criminal syndicate that has tyrannized the USA for decades, just like mafias used to hold cities like NY and Chicago hostage back in the early 20th.  They own corrupt politicians, judges, police, big corporations, and of course, the media. Today they do this on a global scale instead of a municipal one. Trump is merely the figurehead of a faction of the military who are true patriots and chose to honor their oaths to Constitution. What you are witnessing is the culmination of a military operation that is decades in development to liberate the USA from this cabal.

 

BTW,

 

As it is a global problem, what started in the USA will quickly come to the rest of the world as well. The rebellion merely had to start in the USA so the syndicate can't use America's military and currency to maintain their dominance.

The Democrats aren't big on affirmation echo chambers. Never have been.

 

That's why it is quieter now.

They've bought into the conspiracy theory that the Trump Nazis under Donald J. Hitler are planning to round them all up and place them in concentration camps where they'll be forcefully converted into Christian MAGA supporters.

Man - it's so quiet that no one is around scream for that ☝️to be "Fact Checked."  Unlike the Left, when most of us label something a "conspiracy theory" we are joking in a satirical manner.  Like now.  A real progressive would scream to have articles by the Babylon Bee "fact checked."  These poor people can't grasp satire unfortunately. 

Breathe a sigh of relief progressives - DJT nor MAGA has no interest is "rounding you up and tossing you into concentration camps" simply for holding progressive views.  See, that's the part of conservatism you completely misunderstand:  We don't want to be in your business any more than we want you in our business. Live and let live.

Really?  Then why have they been affirming "DJT = Hitler," and "MAGA = Fascists" in the Democrat Echo Chamber non-stop for over the last two years.  Among other tropes.  I'll disagree: Democrats, at least on the 'far-left', live in an echo chamber of their own fabrication.

Hence the literal melt-downs that are now meme material on social media.  Some are just too good to pass up.

Im waiting for them to man up and show some honour by apologizing to all of us for their lies and repulsive hatespews.

[spidermike007]

Well for those of us that did not vote for Trump we are still trying to digest the results, and understand the ramifications of this, and quite frankly every time I post I seem to get a ridiculous number of conservatives who are gloating and telling me how Trump has somehow reformed himself into some sort of saint. Revisionist history?
