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.
I had a dream last night I was getting nuzzled by a bobcat. It was pretty cool. There were two of them and we were by some sort of stream and they were in there and had mollusks or something attached to them like they'd been in the water way too long and we're basically fully aquatic. Anyways, I noticed I was just a few feet from one of them so I put my hand out and it sniffed me then I made it into a fist and it did what cats do when presented with a fist. There were some other people around maybe rock climbing and they all went quiet in awe that I was getting such a bobcat experience. Was a cool dream.
Just imagine the libtards Trump derangement when DeSantis appoints Lara Trump to fill the Florida senate seat vacated by Marco Rubio. Heads will explode haha!
While this idiot is an idiot it does prove a deeply bizarre point
Why are these MAGA clowns more focused on the emotional suffering of people who didn’t want this and less focused on how the country will actually be better?
Very strange to have a political movement singularly predicated on extracting misery rather than general improvement

I can confidently say this is a "both sides" problem.
It didn't take long for this prediction to bear fruit. Nominating Gaetz is a disgrace. If you took the 500 most prominent law firms in the United States (some of which clearly have a conservative bent), I don't think Gaetz could get a job at any of them.
You speak too much sense .
Btw I would say the same thing about trump .
No companion in the S&P 500 would hire trump as a ceo with the track record he got ….
I can’t wait to see how the world will be better run by loyalty instead of competence .
I guess for maga , the mob at it right !
A true model of leadership and efficiency to follow !
And then nvm freedom of thinking , if u dare have a though of yourself your fire !
True Republican freedom !
Right. So blocking windows so that observers can't see in is the opposite of cheating.
Interesting thesis.
They were trying to do their jobs of counting votes and had a bunch of neanderthals outside the windows screaming and hurling threats. There are observers inside the actual room, from both sides, ensuring there is nothing nefarious going on. They didn't need a crowd of 85 IQ types outside the room helping.
He's good at that. Pretty much anything else... not so much.
There's not enough popcorn in the world to handle the dumpster-fire we'll all be watching the next four years. What a way for a country like ours to go down. It's straight out of the movie Idiocracy.
Pretty sure Camacho would be a better CIC (Clown in Chief) than Trump.
In any case I think calling Gaetz a pedophile for having sex with a 17 year old is stupid.
A 40-year-old banging a 17-year-old is some kind of phile that's frowned upon. But sure, he's not a pedo, but he likes to work in the vicinity, I suppose.
gynephile
It’s called ephebophilia. But I don’t know how you can interact with a 17 year old in your mid 30s and not think you aren’t essentially with a child.
Coming back from my super duper Greece vacation.
Since the war started, Russians are apparently restricted from traveling.
Russians are big spenders.
Greece lost a lot of tourist business.
People in Greece believe Trump will end both, the war in Ukraine and the war in Gaza.
Guy I know who's a resort manager was elated Trump won.
Who knew?

it's not only restrictions to travel, their cards don't work in the west.
those are some of the most stupid sanctions possible btw because if rich Russians spend outside Russia that weakens the ruble and the Russian banking system so we shouldn't limit their ability to do so.
usually it would be Russia to enforce "hard currency" to stay within it's borders not us lol.
but even if Trump changes the course of the Ukrainian war, it's not obvious at all that Europe will remove those sanctions
imagine thinking, or saying without laughing, that the DOJ is independent, and lamenting the loss of such independence.
the FBI just raided polymarket

Personally I think it is lexically useful to have different words for attraction to 17 year olds and 7 year olds, but if you wish to use your own private language and have pedophilia describe both groups, I can’t stop you.

I mean these betting websites have been operating in a legal gray area for years. Trump can always pardon him or have his AG drop the charges.

yes exactly, trump can just throw this away (and will, I hope).
which is why this isn't an "independent choice", you don't waste resources if you know that right?
this is just political retribution against people aligned with Trump, I mean like the DOJ always does.
this is the violence of the state used against political opponents, which is what the DOJ has always been about, yet some people keep claiming trump undermines it's independence... lol at the idea the DOJ was ever independent

I mean if he has been under investigation for a while which it sounds like he has been why would we trace this back to allegedly supporting Trump? You’re the one that demands no discretion and always charging people no matter what when it comes to your preferred court system.

I don't demand that in the USA where that's not a principle of the law and prosecutors are politically elected and prosecution is discretionary.
why do I think polymarkets owner supports trump?
he is the young guy in the photo
Btw Gaetz already resigned from congress, so if the senate doesn't confirm him that will be very funny

What's the tinfoil theory about how this means the DOJ isn't independent?
If Gaetz is brought in to bring down the deep state child sex ring, he's going to be the most qualified of Trump's picks, so kudos for that, I guess...
