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.

The USA, a liberal, and democracy walk into a bar...

It doesn't feel like the best setup imo


by Gorgonian k

What exactly is meant by "USA liberal Democracy?"

Because that term certainly sounds like a joke.

It's a joke because it's not liberal and it's not a democracy. That's why it's funny. It's a counter-factual

Oh, one of those jokes that isn't funny. I forget that you guys attempt those.

I have no idea what you are even talking about. I doubt you do either.

I saw what you did there. 😀


From RFK's MAHA site, that 6th point :p

ok glad we can agree that USA liberal Democracy is a joke

The historical facts about primaries don't change, regardless of what you call the US form of government.

The United States is a republic using representative democracy to choose it's leaders.



That's as stupid as saying those of us who think tax should be higher should donate to the government.

I understand it takes manpower to do that but no i don't understand how it has to be federal employees necessarily (although it will be in the case of Trump administration i guess).

You have a wonderful institution in your country history which is that of the bounty hunter, and you already use it for people who skip bail and the like if i am not mistaken, it could be used to track people down and take them into custody for being illegals.

And it would cost a small fraction of having federal employ

And here we are

Senate Bill 72 would also develop a “Missouri Illegal Alien Certified Bounty Hunter Program,” which would certify people to be bounty hunters for the specific purpose of finding and detaining immigrants without proper documents. Anyone licensed as a bail bond agent would be eligible to apply for the program.

Some of the most important leaders are selected by the representatives themselves so that's even more detached from popular will.


Dalton Georgia voted overwhelming for Donald Trump freaking out after realizing he will destroy their economy.

they overwhelmingly voted for Trump AND MTG??? They get no sympathy

The problem is that the Trump voters who are just now realizing that they voted
against their own self interests have hurt everyone else, except Trump and his rich friends.

Trump Black Voters HORRIFIED at Cabinet…

Donald Trump’s Black supporters in the “find out stage”

Trump has your vote. Now he's done with you.

What do you think about his cabinet picks? lozen. Ignoring the deep state allegations, that many are billionaires with ties to arms manufactories', but that every one is completely unqualified?

I’d like to wait till they have some time on the job . Some of them I have no clue who they are . Reality is it’s the Presidents choice and than senate confirms them
I was not a fan of Matt Gaetz and Pete Hegseth is iffy

I’d like to look at some of Biden’s picks and you have to say Merrick Garland was incompetent as was Mayor Pete . The bald Trans dude was a bust as well

I particularly enjoyed the "I have no idea what his name was but I still know enough to judge his job performance" phase of that deflection. Well that and the delusional idea that Pete Buttigieg did poorly in his role.


Lol @ having an opinion on how well the transportation secretary performed.


Lol at spending 7 billion for 7 ev charging stations. Keep up the great work pal.

Oh look, housenuts repeating misinformation. I'm shocked.

It takes 2 seconds. 3 if you have to pull your finger out of your belly button before you start typing.


Facts do not matters.
Just bs does .
Hopefully there was more then 1 thing to proclaim secretary of transport was bad .

The man was stealing dresses at the airport and fired I assume his tenure was a failure and a DEI hire

Hmm no one’s questioning my take on Merrick Garland

And Pete sucked no pun intended

You don't even know their name. Until you learn that, I don't care what you think about them.

Why do you think Garland was a failure? I know why I do, but why do you?

by lozen k

And Pete sucked no pun intended

He really didn't, but I know you were told that he did, so I understand why you think that.

What pun were you referring to?


by lozen k

No one responding to your asinine opinions when you admit they are not based on facts is not the same thing as “no one is questioning your take…”

Garland was a failure as he took to long to prosecute Trump . He needed to appoint Jack Smith quicker and mandate him if charges were warranted to act quickly so Trump couldn’t run out the election clock
