Donald J. Trump (For everyone else except Victor)

Donald J. Trump (For everyone else except Victor)

I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?

So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at

What is stopping DJT from ignoring all court rulings he doesn't like and doing whatever he wants at this point? Can't he just tell the DOJ to sit on their hands? Doesn't seem realistic that anyone with any modicum of power would turn on him at this point, especially Congress

Part of me thinks it's pretty much inevitable that he'll try at least on something and part thinks he knows that could backfire badly and things could get dark quick.

at some point it might be about him ordering the militaries to enforce something against civilians which courts defined as illegal, and there is absolutely no reason to think the militaries will.

at the end the actual power is always, invariably, in the hands of the people with the guns.

which in the USA, unlike other countries, isn't only the militaries and law enforcement. it's tens of millions of citizens ready to shoot to kill to defend their freedom.

the militaries and the 2a are the defense against tyrants, always have been. maybe democrats will come to appreciate the crucial , absolutely essential second amendment the same conservatives always did.

is Trump willing to bring the country to complete civil war because of some interpretation of the constitution? I don't think so

I commented on the things you said, but wasn't implying anything about you. I understand it seemed like that though.

you have my apologies then




Well Trump has a 53% approval rating which I guess is slightly higher than I would have expected but the most unsurprising part is the massive gains the GOP has made with the kids - that **** was self inflicted from both ends - I wonder if there was a polymarket bet for that. But Trump is the only one in planet Earth that can walk into a setup so grand in his favor and manage to completely **** it all up.

"I've already done a bunch of the work, already paid for the material and the labor, so I'm out all that cost," Holden said in one video, adding, "We are possibly going to lose our farm if NRCS doesn't hold up their contract with us."



Mar-a-Lago's goat, covered in money where the word 'God' is replaced by 'Trump'. Little weird, maybe...? Bit cult-y


'They must no longer offer any of their sacrifices to the goat idols to whom they prostitute themselves. This is to be a lasting ordinance for them and for the generations to come.’ Leviticus 17:7

Not sure if that verse is in the Trump edition of the Bible.

BG will surely clarify this.


lol 'judges are violating the Constitution's separation of powers when they try and stop us violating the Constitution's separation of powers"


lol, Trump is such a mental case, you got to wonder what sort of stupid bollocks is coming next.

"Trump says no right of return for Palestinians under Gaza plan"


by Luciom k

You guys really hate democracy everytime the People vote in a way you disagree with

Nah. You are the person who thinks that dismay at election results implies a lack of support for democracy.

That isn't how it works.

Its really as straight forward as it seems. We worked exclusively with Bibi to give Isreal the exact resolution that it wanted. Palestinians will be removed, dead or alive, and the US will get some prime real estate for development and the strip will be converted to a luxury tourist attraction.


Cmon America, please go all 1780s France real soon. It'll make everyone love America again.

Oh not the dismay, rather calling "fascist" the implementation of policies they disagree with (you don't do that to be clear).

You don't understand a lot. You should keep that in mind.

This is a fascinating criticism coming from you. Of all the regular posters in the forum, I would say that you are the most prone to assigning an ill-fitting ideological label to a policy or politician that you disagree with.

In fact, you are more prone to do this than almost anyone who has ever posted regularly in this forum.

I'm in good company. Luciom thinks that this is a mostly Marxist forum.

It's not only about mislabeling, whatever you might think of my use of labelling.

Fascism has specific implications that don't follow from other mislabeling like , say, calling "neolib" something that isn't. Or marxist, or leftist.

Aside from being actually illegal to be fascist in some european countries some users of this forums are from, defining something as fascist explicitly condones violence (and many other forms of illegality) done to fight it, which is what morally the vast majority of people believe is proper to do against fascism.

Calling some people or actions done by some people fascist or nazist is a call to use extralegal violence to get rid of those people.

Fascism isn't just "something bad", it's "something so bad, it's moral to violently oppose it".

This is exactly how you view Marxism.

no, i repeated ad nauseam i want laws to be passed to back any attempt to use force against marxism.

I do *not* condone extralegal violence done toward politicians that pass what i consider marxist policies.


Anyway, back to Trump and republicans on actual policy, as basic math implied, medicaid cuts are on the table (and it's hard to pass them with the tiny majority in the House)

AM: House Republicans are looking to cut between $2T and $2.5T in reconciliation, which will likely necessitate Medicaid cuts. This has caused some friction in the leadership and in the rank and file.

Fine, but what you wrote above is also paired with a bizarrely expansive definition of Marxism. If we paired your definition of Marxism with a right to use deadly force to combat Marxism, I'm pretty sure we would have a civil war in this country.
