O/T:- Trump Presidency 2.0 [hic sunt dracones]

It really is a shocking pity that the Democrats made such a dog sh1t show of their term it left the American people with no choice.

If they feel that they are really Russians trapped inside Ukrainian bodies, or Yankees trapped inside Canadians, etc., then let them be Russians and Americans respectively. Is that not the liberal order of the day, to allow people to self identify? What the hell skin is it off our backs if Albertans prefer to be Americans? Ought we to beat them into submission if they think they would be better off under a different flag?

It would be like the people of the UK choosing Brexit in a nation wide referendum, and then the revolving door government of the day ignoring the will of the people by signing agreements that effectively wipes out what the people chose.

And yet that is consistently what the west does. We claim to be democracies, and yet whenever the peoples vote yields a result that our masters do not like, they use whatever means necessary to cancel the results. Why should I kill or die to protect and coddle such lunacy?

If they are Russians trapped in Ukrainian bodies then go live in Russia then everyone would be happy.

Agree! They also managed to pick candidates (Clinton, Biden, Biden/Harris) who the Republicans would have a chance against. If we can see it why can't they? Biden's p!$$!ng about* has delivered the free world into an unhinged president who may well be guilty of unimaginable crimes. [* - and if he has done wrong his rep should be shredded as well.]

Ethnic cleansing is usually frowned upon.

All the Trump haters, who hated Musk even more, now love Musk.

Jesus, I can?t keep up.

I don?t know how some of them can function normally from day to day.

I don't think they 'love' Musk now. I think they simply see that he's a rare person with enough money/influence to potentially damage Trump if he chooses to go down that route. I suspect it might be a pointless exercise though as JDV is waiting in the wings anyhow and could possibly be much more dangerous. Sometimes it's a case of 'better the devil you know'.

That's just a lazy trope. It's not true at all. Personally I can't imagine anyone (on any side of the political spectrum) has a higher opinion of Musk than they had a few months ago, but if you're right then the Tesla sales figures will be back to normal next month.

Also quite funny that you are calling out hypocrisy and mental gymnastics when you personally went from in January saying Trump would oversee an era of unmatched prosperity, to in April saying that the great financial crisis of 2008 wasn't actually that bad when he tanked the market.

I don't think they love Musk anymore than they love Trump but are enjoying seeing them go head to head in a dog fight.

It may be frowned upon but frowning doesn't stop it.

I hated Trump, I hated Musk. I still do. But it's great to see them fall out.

If you didn't keep inventing things you might keep up better than you do.
