Trump 2nd term prediction thread
So, looks like Trump not only smashed the electoral college, but is looking on track to win the popular vote, which seems to be an unexpected turn of events, but a clear sign of the current temperature in the country and perhaps the wider world.
Would be interested to hear views on how his 2nd term will pan out from both sides of the aisle - major happenings, what he's going to get done, what he's not going to get done, the impact of his election on the current conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza, whether his popularity will remain the same, wane, or increase, etc.
A bit of an anemic OP, I know, just interested to hear people's thoughts now that the election uncertainty is over.
lol, you are aware of the fact pretty much everything Trump has done so far was called out loud itt? And you were pretty much saying the same dumb things about those things being pure TDS etc.
Exactly how far does this go before you get it?
Saying trump has done stuff this thread has talked about doesn’t mean democracy is over.
If you look at his work as a whole I think there is a reasonable argument to be made that he is the least power hungry President we’ve had in my life. He is drastically reducing the power of the federal government, which he is the head of, and that is putting more power in the hands of the people and state governments.
lolololol
incredible
b, does it bother you at all that pretty much the only people here that would buy that are BJ and PB? Like, even a little?

lol -- that's the good stuff, thank you hotdogmickey
Don't get me wrong, I think Jan 6th was pretty funny and not some great SHOCK TO AMERICAN DEMOCRACY (which was broken long before 1/6), but it still was, at least by some degree, an attempt by Trump to overthrow a lost election. An entirely quarter-assed, pathetic, zero-chance-in-hell attempt, but one nonetheless. The PREVIOUS Republican President was even worse; that dude got the Supreme Court to STOP THE COUNT!, but anyway, lol.
(1/6 was mostly a QAnon cosplay of "The Storm" that Trump tried to repurpose for his attempts at election cheating)

Bullshit. Every word of it.
At least Playbig sometimes throws in some wacky conspiracies...
I am getting pretty old but I don’t remember an out-going president ever planning and speaking at a rally on the day the electoral votes are counted. Or contesting the election results that long after an election.
Only a moron would think Trump firing all those that oppose him and the government internal watchdogs is behavior of the least power hungry president.
Everything should be handled by the states
- except super important stuff like what sports kids are allowed to play. There is obviously going to be more super important stuff but gotta start with the #1 priority first

all sports with national competitions actually require... national rules, a nice example of one of those things that states can't decide about, there need to be a single, nationwide rule.
Fed vs states isn't about importance of the topic. It's about if the topic is national in essence or not.
