Donald I, emperor of the world.

God knows what’s in his diet.

It's dogshit. Pure, nutritious, protein-packed but genetically curious dogshit, direct from the Great American Dogshit farms of Olgino & St. Petersburg.

Thing I can't understand is why Trump is so set on Venezuela. All commentators I've seem highlight that the drugs justification is just untrue. Plus illegal drug production and export is very profitable and you don't need to use massive oil exports to fund drugs anyway (I spent some time in northern Peru on the main cocaine export route and it was interesting).

Regime change doesn't seem sensible as why would Trump be so upset about one South American country.

Only real reason I can currently come up with that makes sense is it's making Trump feel like a "strong man" who "holds all the cards". From Trump's vision of himself he's sitting in Mar-a-Logo and building a ballroom in Washington - whereas Putin is invading another country, Netanyahu bombing everybody nearby yet Trump doing nothing. So maybe this is Trump demonstrating he's a "tough guy" as well?

Oil I presume.

Oil is the obvious one but there are vast mineral reserves as well, per below. This has nothing to do with drugs other than being an excuse.

Everything that's going on in the healthcare stuff, from subsidies, to disease control and vaccines, reinforces my opinion that there's an active policy to kill the poor, the ill, and the old (who aren't stinking rich), as they only drag down the profitability of the young, healthy & rich people.

They've only just got started, but it's as clear as day.

Yep, but who is going to clean their toilets and flip their hamburders once all the poor are dead or have been deported?

Does demented Donny need a rationale beyond ego and money?

I understand that it's not unusual for old men to harbour obsessions.

All commentators I've seem highlight that the drugs justification is just untrue.

Around 110,000 Americans die each year from overdose, predominantly fentanyl

5 to 6 million Americans are addicted to fentanyl.

You think these numbers are insignificant, you're talking out of your arse


Bombing the drug runners and crippling dark registered ships of Venezuela will sharpen the minds in power.

They will need to stop facilitating the drug cartels or Trump will bring about regime change through his actions

He needs some level of justification to send in the military.

...and distraction and perhaps trying to claim back his MAGA base. The school yard bully picking on the little guy because to him, there is no consequence and he looks tough and he's bereft of policy and i've run out of 'ands'.

 

[TailWindHome]

Another trump turd has resurfaced. Hope Greenland, Denmark and Europe tell him to FRO.

Trump envoy to Greenland sparks fresh row with Denmark

Very much looking forward to the next Daily Telegraph article berating Ireland for not joining NATO

Who is going to hold him to account for that?

So true, have sloppy immigration rules by politicians, people will take advantage
