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.
his crimes were bad enough that regular people get jail time for that stuff.
Cool, but you said this:
Read this post of yours as many times as it takes for you to see that this sentence is the opposite of what you actually meant to say, hence why d2 was telling you that you were missing the word "not" in your sentence.
Cool, but you are still displaying a deficiency in reading comprehension
The Jan 6ers should be jumping for joy right now. Lol Biden just gave Trump the green light to pardon all of them.
the same people that call Trump a felon and the legal system upheld the charges against him are the same people that say this
Hunter plead guilty. Hes guilty. None of us care because hes just a citizen. But thats why he got a pardon, because hes guilty.
Trump is guilty. Hes a felon. You think hes not because... I have no ****ing clue why.
Cool, but you shouldn't expect people to read what you write and interpret it as you meant it rather than as you wrote it. But you can label that as a reading comprehension deficit on my part, if that makes you feel better.
I challenge you to find one pardon that is worse than the Hunter Biden pardon from this list of Trump pardons

I want you to not only identify a worse pardon, but why you think its worse.
Can you do this?
It wasn't a done deal though. Now it is for sure.
And there's not a thing the democrats can say about it.
Thanks Joe.
He was going to issue a blanket pardon at the end of his term, but he thought it would hurt his 2024 election chances. This time he has no such concerns. You can blame Joe when he pardons the J6 tards, especially if you feel it will help troll the libs, but we all know it was a done deal on November 5th.
Why Biden shouldn’t pardon hunter?
Let’s recap.
Biden his a senile old man , not knowing where he his half the time and have many lapsus of what he does or says half the time correct ?
I guess it was just a senile decision moments, just glad it wasn’t an important one shrug .
Biden just follow the trend of the majority about crimes , putting trump president.
Aside from presidential pardons being a stupid concept in general, I don't think anyone really cares about Biden pardoning his son. Everyone else would do the same. Why not. You have his broad power to effectively make people immune from the law. No repercussions either. May as well.
What people care about is the repeated lies of him saying he wouldn't do it. And his press secretary repeatedly saying he wouldn't do it. And if anyone asked about it, press secretary shutting them up and saying it's ridiculous and that it's an unequivocal no, that he won't pardon him. People were just lied to for months about that by multiple members of government.
People want honesty and truth, and that's been hard to come by lately. As much as you may disagree with Trump and his policies, he's pretty open face about them.
Lol, you can’t be serious. The biggest liar to ever hold the office is open faced. Bahahahahaahh.

This post is such abject sophistry and performance art that its a masterpiece. Chefs kiss to your troll arc
Yeah, Trump tells you what he's going to do. Biden lies about what he's going to do and then does the opposite.
Not sure why anyone would care whether he pardoned Hunter except to judge his character. Hunter's crimes were not egregious, so I don't think anyone's seriously worried about him being set free. As for Joe and his character, he's fine worrying about what you think of him, so go right agreed and think less of him. I do a little bit, and it works certainly affect my decision about if I'll ever vote for him in the future should he run for an office. Beyond that, everything else is performative, and
It's not about hunter or joe. The justice system is under attack from trump/etc. This pardon is headline evidence that the system is rotting away. Is it even be worth saving? Similar for democracy. If we want justice, democracy etc to survive then we have to value it for itself and have some principles. Not as many do rely on others being far worse.

Old Bush pardoned treason
Clinton pardoned his brother in law and business partner
Trump pardoned his son in law's father (and has now given him a job), and political allies Steve Bannon, Michael Flynn, and Roger Stone
This panic is outrageous. Either you cared before or you don't care now. Pretending to care now is ridiculous

The situation is continually getting worse. That was happens when a system rots from within. Not just the usa - across western democracies.
We better start caring before we're at the wake.
