Why all the fuss about Trump ? Those before him were no better, if not worse.

  • Sounds like you should keep better company.

  • I have yet to meet an American in person here who is not apologizing for Trump. They all say they did not vote for Trump.   It does make me wonder what la-la land his supporters live in.

  • I’m here in the states you don’t see trump supporters they are keeping their heads down for sure.I did see one the other day at Costco getting yelled at by 3 people definitely put a smile on my face.h

I said I did not leave for political reasons. 


 Couldn’t afford America anymore?

I didn’t ask you.  I don’t need two opinions from 2 separate idiots.

It’s essential to embrace diverse perspectives and let go of close-mindedness. Opening yourself to other viewpoints can enrich your understanding and foster meaningful connections.

I suspect before the idiocy of MAGA ends, the real "escape" from the madness will not be measured by the number of individuals, but as States.

 

California has absolutely no reason to remain as a US State. The world's 4th largest economy, Silicon Valley (where billionaires' affections blow with the direction of the wind), agriculture, defense industry, and a place ready to make its own trade deals far removed from TACO's tariffs is a stand alone power in this world. If CA seceded, Oregon and Washington would likely join.

 

Such a move would prompt the same on the east coast, with all of New England, NY, NJ, DE, MD and eastern PA forming their own nation. Michigan could join Canada, and if Pritzker can do it, Illinois, too.

 

MAGAnistas would have their unwoke paradise monarchy, albeit with an economy that would make Venezuela look like an economic juggernaut. MAGANistas could learn to clap like trained seals, a la the people of North Korea. They could install a White Jeebus kind of KKKristianity as the official faith, with Trump acting as their Pope as well as dictator and monarch. KFC and McDonalds could be put at the top of the food pyramid, and ketchup could be reclassified as a sacrament. Since Georgia would remain part of MAGAstan, Trump could award himself the Green Jacket for "winning" The Masters, and his caddy could toss out the ceremonial First Cheat to start off the tournament each year.

 

What would be left in terms of supporters would be pretty much all Trump has left now: fat old "angry" unsuccessful white guys getting measured for the box, who could depart the earthly plain any day now, and young Incels who think Taylor Swift ruined their chances to ever find a willing female partner. One wonders if that Best Paradise Ever would draw back home the MAGAs now counting their ever-shrinking cookie jar of baht in Thailand with their former bargirl cashier pyrite-digger.


All that yapping for nothing. The States can't legally secede so your entire fantasy isn't possible.

If you knew anything about America then you'd know that

I think it might be because we have an intelligence test that you have to pass before you can get it in.  It has a large logic portion similar to the LSAT exam.  

 

With your atrocious English you clearly passed then eh. 

 

Get it in. 

 

Logic like allowing Biden to fumble around for as long as he did ? Or logic thinking he was fit to run again ?

 

Keep at it you're doing a great job. Live long and prosper. 

Another Trump win...

 

With so many people with the syndrome leaving, the average US IQ has increased.


Edit:  Speaking of unhinged, how about these snowflakes at Vanity Fair:

 

Vanity Fair staffers erupted after learning top brass floated the idea of putting Melania Trump on the magazine’s cover.

 

“I will walk out the mother<deleted>ing door, and half my staff will follow me,” one editor told the New York Post.

 

One editor doubled down, telling the Post, “We are not going to normalize this despot and his wife; we’re just not going to do it. We’re going to stand for what’s right.”

 

“If I have to work bagging groceries at Trader Joe’s, I’ll do it. If [Guiducci] puts Melania on the cover, half of the editorial staff will walk out, I guarantee it,”

No one challenges me when I wear my new Trump hat.

Trump's health is failing. He has pronounced edema in his ankles, which is a sign of congestive heart failure. The very recent bruising on his hand looks like thrombocytopenia, another potentially dangerous medical condition.

The White House medical staff say he is in excellent health. My BS meter has gone off scale.

 

It could be you are going to look even more stupid than usual, wearing that hat.

I'm hoping Vanity Fair grows some juevos and puts Melania on the cover, so their staff has to put up or shut up.  I'm predicting a bunch of lefty tears and screeching.

Step away from your BS meter and have another look. You being close to it likely pegging it.

 

Sure, Trump could be dying, and his medical staff could be lying. That would no surprise me. 

 

But so what?

 

It really changes nothing, he’s still president.

Biden was ready for a coffin. The lefts hypocrisy is the reason no one cares about the noise

Many said that can never happen here (there).

But it did.

Including asylum applications (to escape persecution by the authoritarian Trump regime).
To LEAVE the USA. Not to enter.

Personally I didn't leave for political reasons but economic reasons were a big part of it (geographical arbitrage and better access to medical care). 

Some of the stats in this video are rather shocking.

Anecdotally and admittedly not a scientific sample, every person that I know still in the USA has talked about considering leaving now. Obviously the level of being serious about that varies a lot.

 

 

You should definitely give up your citizenship. It will allow for restful sleep,  some of your paranoid delusions will subside. How about Iran? Perfect for you.

 

Only wealthy, foaming at the mouth leftist entertainers leave and it's usually just empty threats 

 

The real leavers are entirely about taxes / wealth. 

 

You live in Thailand and have for years, but constantly complain about what goes on thousands of km away in a land you don't even visit. 

 

Maybe cut back the Internet time? Find some interesting hobbies

So are you a certified medical doctor who has examined President Trump?

 

Or just reading about photo shop photos?

 

During his meeting with Zelensky and Europe leaders he was sharp as a tac.  Much more than I can say about the previous president.

 

Did your BS meter explode when Biden’s WH physician claimed Biden was in cognitively fit?

Trump's death or incapacitation changes nothing? 

 

I don't know how long I have. Might be 6 months, might be 10 years.

 

How does it feel to be so riddled with spite and hate, that you wish me ill? You are one sick puppy.

I am not a medical doctor. I do have AI to assist in interpreting medical symptoms.

 

You should try it yourself sometime, you need AI's help badly.

So simply put, nothing you posted was accurate.

 

Was Biden’s dementia while President accurate?

 

For someone who is as highly educated as you CLAIM to be, why would you need AI?

IIRC Biden beat Trump like a rented mule in the 2019 debates. He was also cogent and focused in his State of the Union address.

 

His decline was rapid, which can happen with Alzheimer's. Stretching that to being senile for his entire Presidency is a convenient fiction of the right-wingers.

Simply put, you are blind to the signs of Trump's decline. 

 

As for Biden, answered in the post to angry guy.

If you you honestly think Biden was cognitively fit during his Presidency all of your current posts are rendered meaningless.

Biden was unfit to serve for a long time during his term. Its doubtful he was involved in many if any decisions, he left the country in the hands of DEI incompetents
