The Damage Caused Is Permanent

Featured Replies

  • Popular Post

So the president of the United States is furiously posting fantasies of himself as dictator, superhero, violent offender, talking with dead people. Stuff people of a sound mind wold not do.

But lost in all the noise is the fact that the person who comes up with these disturbing fantasies is the one that decides (by himself, as the GOP run Congress has surrendered it's oversight function) in which direction the US is going internationally, and it's causing enormous and lasting damage.

If the world survives this incredibly dangerous period and grown-ups return to the WH, it will take decades to undo what can be undone. Of course, some of the most serious damage is permanent.

"Some experts believe that all the harm Trump has done to the country could be locked in, perhaps, for decades to come. In fact, they think Democrats will need to win control of both houses of Congress during the midterms, and repeat the victory in 2028, while also winning the White House to reverse the damage.

This is because much of the harm is intentionally designed to be difficult to reverse."

  • Decades at least. The US has proved that it quite simply cannot be trusted.

  • A few months ago, before Trump slipped even farther into dementia and insanity, Gen Mattis was on TV and was asked how long it would take for the world to trust the US again and for the Trumpian damag

But maybe everything is not lost. The official White House account has posted this short video on X, so maybe the Green Lantern can turn things around!

PS. I have a feeling trump doesn't know that in the DC Comics history about the Green Lantern, the Green Lantern dies and is replaced by a Black guy.🤣

A few months ago, before Trump slipped even farther into dementia and insanity, Gen Mattis was on TV and was asked how long it would take for the world to trust the US again and for the Trumpian damage be erased.

Mattis guessed two decades or maybe a generation.....if the US is lucky.

The fact that the US electorate is so dumb as to elect the bozo twice---even after the guy tried to overturn the election he lost---makes Gen Mattis' assessment sound optimistic.

By any measure, Trump is now completely insane....yet no one has stepped forward to attempt to invoke the 25th Amendment. The best we can hope for is a Democratic landslide in both the House and Senate two months from now, so as to make Trump the lamest duck there ever was. At that point, if Trump tried something crazy, the Joint Chiefs would step in, throw Hegseth out of the way, and remove Trump. Yes, a coup sounds bad, but the alternative is worse. Trump has dug his own grave with the military, with his idiotic war, his total lack of concern for servicepeople, and calling the deaths and injuries from his Iran debacle "small potatoes". No decent people would complain.

It is going to be one hell of a wild party worldwide in the streets the day that donnie slinks back under his rock and is gone forever either into the depth of demenia or death from cheeseburgers.

I still think and hope that just maybe our former allies maybe will forgive the morons who voted for this con man two times and realize that only about 35% still think he is just wonderful.

But sadly I don't think Donnie and the dunces are done yet. I think there will be a massive blue wave in 2026 and the dems will control potus congress in 2028....but will demented don go quietly into the night or scream rigged as he always does and try and send his thugs as well as military and cops out to arrest all those who dare to oppose the emperor of evil.

And of course donnie will especially want to arrest and imprison or firing squad for any former magas who have turned on him so all the hyocrites who bent themselves into pretezels to support him and then finally saw the obvious conman that had lied to them from day one will also get rounded up by the nazi thugs . Think it can't happen? Read a bit of history.

Imagine world leaders (and every sane person on the planet) seeing this post from the president of the United States. Every post like this one (and this is far from the worst) eats away at America's credibility.

And there are many of them. So, so many of them.

PS. And, no, that is not inspired by "Starship Troopers".

Another embarrassing loss for the American war machine is imminent.

They not long lost to the Taliban, and the Iranian regime only needs to survive to declare victory.

When will the US ever learn from the Vietnam War? You can not win a land war in Asia, which includes The Middle East.

I predict in a couple of years from now the Venezuelans will wake up an kick off the same way when they see it's all about American companies stealing their oil.

Meanwhile, China is building more and more cheap EV's, while America is still trying to hold onto oil and Empire.

A recent survey showed there;s a pivot towards China in the west, and away from America. I wonder why.

Really? I don't remember that.

But just to continue with the super-hero theme, which superhero would your favorite Democratic leader most typify then?

Ant-Man?

Or maybe a villain rather than a superhero?

Doctor Octopus maybe?

I love observing these lefties reach around threads.

They all come out of the woodwork, in single file, arm fully extended, palm open waiting for their turn.

All based on someone’s opinion.

WTF! No comment yet about Trump new hair color? Get with the program.

So you have no confidence in the midterms? I thought that was your holy grail. A final Hail Mary.

Yes, hair color. The wig claim has been unproven numerous times.

Surprised you never heard that following him 24/7/365.

What was proven was Biden’s HAIR PLUGS.

Yes, permanent damage.

Even the most optimistic acknowledge that after Trump/Maga there will be no reset button.

The world would have moved on and made other plans with the understanding that the USA is not to be trusted.

I am so glad I will not be around to see the long-term results of Trump's behavior. I feel bad for my pre-teen grandkids. They will be the ones who have to try to rebuild the UNITED part of the concept of 'America.'
Frankly, seeing the lack of education in the 18-25 year age group today, I don't see that happening.
The United States of America is ripe for the plucking by a China/North Korea effort, now that the country has no experienced Military leaders left (the good ones have all been fired), and only half the weaponry needed to protect the country. The top of the Military chain, the guy who makes ALL the decisions, is a Fox talk show host with zero advanced military strategy background.
We're so screwed.

I assume you don't refer to the habitual liars in the White House, who will deny everything that doesn't suit them. They will even deny that Trump is mentally challenged, and his brainwashed followers, of which you are part, will believe it.

For Trump all help comes too late, but for you, there is still a small chance that you can recover.

The former allies will remain concerned that it may happen again, either because a majority will actually vote for a similar demagogue, or because they do not trust the frankly gimcrack electoral system, (which is hideously gerrymandered at Congressional (House of Representatives) level, bizarrely gives smaller states the same representation as the larger states in the Senate, and which is so open to manipulation and ignoring the popular vote at Presidential level), to not produce this again.

And of course, they share your concerns that a vote to overturn Trump either in the midterms or at the next General Election will be suppressed.

Why do you think that the bond market is so shaky, and so many countries are moving their gold out?

It will be at least a generation. Maybe the US is " too big to fail" (not so sure) but it is certainly "too big to trust".

Not a new hair colour. He mistakenly picked up one of his dirty diapers by mistake instead of his wig. 😀

The Republicans have shown our allies and the world that as long as Republican politicians are anywhere near power or in the majority America can never be trusted again. 🔔🛎️🛎️🛎️🛎️

Larry King show and even (gasp) The View host Barbara Walter’s back when the female hosts were all HUG and KISSES with Trump.

Until they’re were ordered not to.

Everything else you post is once again, your opinion. No facts to support your opinion.

Oh, so now you are quoting interviews with the habitual liar, and no less from 2004 and 2011, as evidence that he isn't wearing a wig in 2026?

told so by Natalie , and she also said he <deleted>s himself regularly and she has

Naturally you have no proof he is wearing a toupee so I provided the proof he doesn’t.

You lost. Now you’re a sore loser.

While I can post the proof only your skull can or can’t comprehend it. In this case, can’t.

Brainwashing?? LMAO! Where did that come from in this toupee banter? You’re a piece of work.
