Donald I, emperor of the world.

Why is Trump at Disney Florida?


The population voting tendancy isn't going to change much, you're more likely to meet a republican than Trump.

Get a grip 🤣

Is this the answer you were looking for?

In answer to your question, almost none, but they are now forewarned.

if he continues to do this then sooner or later he will come across someone who will call him out

he has to be very careful who he chooses to pick on

which is how it is for all bullies - only pick on those who are weaker
but sometime you get it wrong

Gosh if the US army is stunned by Trumps 60min speech, the world is in deep trouble

They weren't stunned in a good way! It's saying something, but he makes even less sense than you.

Attempts to explain the dollar’s declining value in recent weeks will naturally focus on the growing likelihood of a US recession: the prospect of a sharp fall in growth tends to repel rather than attract capital inflows, and currency depreciation is the result.

Yet there may be a deeper cause of the dollar’s decline, rooted in the view of some within the Trump administration that the reserve currency status of the dollar is more of a burden to the US economy than a blessing.

Their remedy is to erode the dollar’s status in the international monetary system as part of an effort to weaken it permanently against other currencies, hoping that a more depreciated dollar might reduce the trade deficit and attract manufacturers to the US.

That view is very hard to defend. But if the administration really does aim to erode the dollar’s status, the international monetary system could enter a form of anarchy it hasn’t experienced since President Richard Nixon disconnected the value of the dollar from gold more than 50 years ago.

I doubt it nobody makes less sense than me, except me

Trump doesn't want to simply be the centre of attention. This is, I feel, naïve. It's all about swamping the courts, the press, due process, agencies, the judiciary etc. Effectively overwhelming the agencies of accountability so that they can do what they like.

I posted something along those lines many months ago on BR.
There were objections but I think it is becoming apparent that those objections were more in hope than the reality.

Read my initial post of this thread and some of the "hopeful" replies at the time. As a said then, are you scared yet?

I wonder how long the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget will have to wait for a lawsuit trying to close them down. How dare they do the math!

Mike Johnson also needs to read the official government web site for the House Speaker.
https://www.speaker.gov/ and the Core Principles of Conservatism.
"Congress has a moral and constitutional duty to resolve the crisis, bring spending under control, balance the federal budget........."
Obvs the "principles" don't apply to the government of South Canada.

Well, there is backlash. Canada voted for a Liberal Premiere, Germany did not vote for the far right party that Musk partly funded, the EU is congealing on many fronts, China is forging new alliances where before, this was improbable. The US domestic economic backlash is yet to be fully realised. The status of the US on a global scale is already diminished.
The biggest effect I think, will be the rise of China and the far East and the previous balance of power will never be restored.

My optimistic POV:

It could possible crumble very quickly. There could be a huge swing in the mid terms. I think by then, the Trump effect will be felt by all and sundry (bar the very rich). There are protests everywhere and the Republicans are scared to show their faces at town halls whereas the Democrats have free range.
The MAGA spin might be so hollow by then. People will be tired of it when the reality of living in a country with failing Medicare, rising costs of living, inflation, lack of welfare and debt is a reality not just some news bite ignored as woke or liberal.
There are republican detractors even on Fox news - most recently over the bitcoin dinner.
Trump may spiral into doolally land quickly. That speech at in front of the military is gobsmacking. Without Trump, the talisman, the 'daddy', the MAGA's will be leaderless. I cannot now see which of the idiots in the cabinet could pick up the mantle. Vance hasn't got the presence nor clout nor gall nor balls. He couldn't lead sheep. He'll be at the helm of a card castle. Rome crumbled from within.

We shall await more late night Sunday rambling shoot from dementia don on truth social. It's a yardstick of his deterioration.
