President Donald Trump
I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?
So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at
idk the specifics but if we held this standards of consistency to everyone then almost none of us could post here
It will be interesting to see if the judge accepts dismissal of the case in light of her prior ruling and amicus brief requests.

The situation is obviously without precedent but I don’t think the judge even matters at this point. Like what could she do?
I don’t even understand why they had to file a lawsuit at all in the first place to do this, seeing as how we’re all cool with Venezuelan oil money going to Trump accounts in Dubai and funding an endless war without voting on it.
I have been fighting with Housenuts on this topic since he started posting. Have threatened to ban him or banish him numerous times
Y'all chased off crossnerd so you are stuck with me for the next year. Adapt accordingly

I don’t have a dog in the fight but I’m pretty sure HN’s posts 100% of the time fall under three specific categories
1. Reposts AI slop or some ludicrous tweet statement
-> hahaha isn’t trump hilarious?
2. BoFf SiDeZ
3. PoLyMarKeT sAYS
I have a hard time believing people can relate and feel threatened accordingly
Not that this is at all the point cuz lol HN, but it’s not like taxpayer funds are separated into MAGA and KAMALA SUPPORTERS buckets gubment can pull from for thingsIf you paid taxes, even a penny, your money is going into Donald trump’s pocket as the result of what, in a normal world, would be the single biggest scandal in American historyWith trump I question if it’s even in
So your tax dollars go to Trumps fraud, Ukraine War, Victors Genocide i Palestine, Minnesota's daycare fraud, California's hospice fraud. I would bet if you eliminated all the federal and state fraud you could balance your budget

Are you doubting the efficacy of the Department of Government Efficiency?
lol, that is not the conservative community at allyou're niche focusing on the terminally online alt right because they're loud, edgy, and algorithm friendly, then pretending that represents mainstream conservatismnick fuentes twitter freaks are not the gop any more than tankies on reddit represent democratsactual republican thought leadership still comes from donors, churches,
I more-or-less addressed this in my second most recent post:
Largely a myth; Trump enjoys significant support among middle-class and rich Republicans. And why not? He passed a big tax-cuts-for-the-rich bill just like any other Republican would. It was arguably his biggest policy "achievement" in his first term. Central Florida is certainly replete with new $60k pickup trucks adorned with Trump bumper stickers.
This idea that there are two separate groups of "MAGA cultists" and "normal Republicans" is very pervasive and completely wrong. There is only some little sliver of anti-Trump Republicans, a stinking pile of pathetic dorks who start little feckless grift groups like The Lincoln Project and Republicans Against Trump. I wonder what percentage of the population of these groups were A-OK with Bush stealing the election in 2000. 90%? 95%?
I would agree strongly with a contention that "normie" Republicans still hold plenty of influence within the party. That doesn't render my quoted assertion untrue; that there are two separate groups of significant size that represent two disparate factions within conservative thought in America. The Groypers et. al have considerable influence -- JD Vance and his benefactor Peter Thiel are Groyper-adjacent at worst. Vance goes on podcasts and spews forth all types of Christofascist bullshit of the type that can be found on any Groyper page. The hardcore Catholic reactionaries are a prominent part of this group, and they've been part of the overall Republican base for decades.
We need to stop with this "terminally online" nonsense. Online is real life. Real life is online. These things are deeply and inextricably linked. Don't believe the hype.
I need to admit that some percentage of the Groyper side can't be truly regarded as part of the GOP base, since they don't vote, and that may be enough for the neocon normie side to be the larger of the two sides, but this group of more overt Nazis still have considerably sway on GOP politics. To what degree, I'm unsure.
Every time I write or read the name Peter Thiel, I have to brag that I have a positive score against the "PeterThiel" account that is believed to be the man himself in blitz chess games on chess.com. I'm pretty sure I've even mentioned this in this forum before, and I'm sorry, I can't help it, I think it's pretty cool that I've played and won a bunch of blitz games against the Antichrist Himself.

hahahahaha
There is nothing you types love more than the idea of a balanced budget. Any and all of the horrors inflicted upon your fellow human beings is worth it as long as we can balance that damn budget.

agreed they are largely squeezed out for the moment, the people i personally know who's parents were part of the bush administration all voted biden and kamala but plan on returning once trump is gone

Once Palantir is hooked up to chess.com you better keep an eye on the sky.

Trump hasn't exactly been discreet or clever in his corruption. It is pretty much out there in the open for anyone to find. By keeping control of his companies even when elected, the efforts of his corruption goes from stuff like overpricing his own security detail for stays at his properties, all the way through magically landing billion dollar deals in countries vying for his favor and using presidential power in an effort to rig a presidential election in his favor. He is a man for sale and thus he is a president for sale.
All of this is pretty much out there for people to find. Perhaps in court it would tied up by clever lawyers, but for anyone who has not donned blinders it is not exactly difficult to suss out.
Yet, he was still handily won the last presidential election.
The truth of the matter is that fighting entrenched corruption in politics is a nasty and drawn out affair, where the ones doing it will often find themselves far less popular and far more controversial than the criminals they are chasing.
Welfare queens exist and are totally a real thing therefore it is ok and actually a good thing for the President to pay himself billions of dollars.
hahahahaha

Unless Mamdani does it.

I agree 100 % on Trump look at all the folks sitting on committees and trading stocks on decisions they make before they are announced .
DOGE was a great idea the execution was the problem
DOGE was a horrible idea and they proved it by not finding much of anything. The real corruption is at the top.
DOGE was always ******ed and frivolous. The role that DOGE filled obviously already existed within the government
They just wanted to make a big chaotic show out of it, and it worked. They failed miserable, made massive fools of themselves for the world to see, and zero republicans changed their opinion based on that failure and emberassment

If they started at Department of Defense may have had more success
CN is gone?
For what reason?
They demonstrated zero success except rustling right wing jimmies where they wanted them rustled without an ounce of evidence that anything they presented had merit
But they totally woulda exposed the DoD if they could have?
