Trump 2nd term prediction thread

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 think you do see why and how coming from senate politics prepares you better for high level international politics, than being the CEO of Exxon does. Yes the CEO of Exxon spends significant time courting favors in other countries, but with a specific, measurable, and limited in scope reward he needs to achive.

Broad-based political achievement, and multifactorial thinking that encompass the destiny of various relationships between various countries or block of countries is different than trying

What ?????

Aren’t the free market suppose to be the best at managing anything and the government being so incompetent and inefficient compare to the private sector ?

Now u claim simple senators has more competence then a ceo at the top of one of the greatest companies in the world ??

Wow .
Senators should be paid hundreds of millions for their great competence .

Ps: if ceo were so bad and politics were so great, electing trump with 0% political experience was the biggest mistake ever make in American politics in 2016 for the qualifications needed you enumerated in your post …

Who ?
Are they in power ?
What were their actions hurting against conservatives you can relate too ?

Not I don’t believe you but want to know what we talking about ?

by zers k

I don't know. How about the umpteen examples of leftists mocking conservatives and telling them to go cry to their magical sky daddy when things don't go their way?

The idea is that people divided along political lines are often very cruel to each other. Of course, any individual has the power to irritate or cause distress to another if they find the right target and use the right words, but it's not the politics in and of itself but rather vicious, tribal behavior. Elements of the left are also guilty of the schadenfreude that SRM was responding to.

"Because they do these things for the sake of a group which is, by definition, good and even sacred, they can admire themselves and loathe their neighbours, they can seek power and money, can enjoy the pleasures of aggression and cruelty, not merely without feeling guilty, but with a positive glow of conscious virtue. Loyalty to their group transforms these pleasant vices into acts of heroism..." —Aldous Huxley

I suspect the only thing that happened not by choice is you not working for "them" any more.

At least I'm not asleep and programmed/brain washed with certain beliefs like most people (and trolls) are.

Ok so you just talk about narrative while conservative actually do stuff ie abortions , banning books , etc


first nominee I simply don't like with no retro-reason that can justify it came with RFK at HHS

You know the problem with that ?
U just don’t have the track record to show it’s true .
While we can find countless examples of what you said never happened .

I guess we won’t see any hurricane under trumps because trump will have enough decency to not use those lasers against the American people like the democrats did right ?

so if I want your dad deported because he is an illegal , the politics aren't vicious in themselves? if someone ask to control how much rent u can get from my apartment? or mandates me to differentiate the trash with huge fines if I don't?

Why ?
It’s the same core of many others .
Just missing Jordan .


RFKJ nominated for Health Secretary. Pfizer stock is down, Polio virus is up.


by Rococo k

Told by who? Now you think Trump takes orders from Republicans in Congress?

do you realize musk is on every call with head of states and basically lives on the side of trump these days? and musk had the best technical counsel money can buy in every single topic.

for example do you know 2-3, days after winning musk said his PAC is going to work nonstop to redistrict everywhere it's possible for the house and to primary the best candidates possible and to do oppo on the Dem names in vulnerable spots? that guy is a machine

Great choice. My spouse is in the health care field. We did very well financially during COVID with all the care anti-vaxxers needed before they eventually died. RFK at HHS is a perfect way to allow natural selection to play out. Smart people will still get their polio and measles vaccines, etc.. Idiots won't. Trump won. He should get to have his people. I want in on the grift of these people. Confirm RFK!!!

yep bad choice, but I guess too much of the core base like him.

oh well, vaccination was a wonder of technology and democrats ruined it as they ruined so many other things.

next time maybe don't politicize , don't mandate, don't be violent, in a generation we might fix this damage you caused but please don't do it again

You display blatant and distinct characteristics of someone who has been brainwashed into a cult

Like, the last 4 or 5 of your posts I have seen are you full sale projecting your personal mental state on every person who disagrees with you

Its fascinating to say the least

And you think a ceo from a company like Exxon doesn’t ???
With possible immediate retributions if he makes a mistakes by
Thousands of share holders and others competitors and financial actors and countries ?

Just fighting regulations and finding compromises about many other factors compare to a dumb bought senator should hint you at some things …

A senator can suck for 4 years with no problem at all …

Now it’s democrats false and not all those pushing nonsense about vaccine on clueless people lol .

school vaccine mandates are state based afaik

de Santis was pushing the vaccine harder than anyone in the first trimester of 2021.

then democrats started venting mandates, and implementing some in colleges and so on and they destroyed public trust in them for a generation or more among republicans.


by Playbig2000 k

I haven't seen any evidence to suggest that President Trump doesn't from the bottom of his heart wanna make america great. For example, if he opened up the boarders to invite anyone and everyone into the country freely like your party did, then I would have a different view.

You also haven't seen any evidence that Trump ever lied about anything. Coming to think of it, you've never produced any evidence for any of your own fantastical claims. All this is to say that you don't seem to be the best evidence finder/seer out there.

So what? These people don't listen to laws that force vaccines upon them. They do their own research. You know that. (I definitely know that as I profited off of their easily avoidable illness and eventual death during COVID. ThankYou, right wing media!!) Here's to hoping he nominates DrDre for surgeon general! Cha-ching!!!

so he can't remove even mandates.

he can though do great damage to health in general by for example blocking grants to research mRNA vaccines for other stuff, and that is something pro science people will suffer from as well (as commercial base research on those topics as you might know is hardly a good investment at the early stages, a rare case of a good use of public money is to fund basic research in key topics)

Maga is a radicalized movement .
U sound like a taliban claiming is the west faut by the way they lived that taliban have been radicalized even more to the path of god …

People should own their actions about believing nonsense on social medias …

I don’t care, and neither does Trump nor anyone who loves Trump. I want to profit off of these rubes just like Trump is. They will be emboldened to ignore vaccine mandates now that Trump has ascended to the throne. And then they will get sick and die.

We are in the Trump era. We are now Trump’s country. It’s me-first and everyone else can **** off. Buckle up.
