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

[Bohinen]

If the World didn't hate America before this, they probably do now.

Nope, don't hate them. I once did because I thought it was big and clever, but since then I've been there a couple of times, and like anywhere else, some of them are alright and some of them are not. But it beats going to Belgium for your holidays.

The situation in Ukraine is probably the number one reason I was worried about Trump getting in again. I just don't trust him to do the right thing. Or the smart thing. And he's shown alarming loyalty to Putin on enough occasions to raise the kompromat question for real.

And the US? I seriously think with the first Trump presidency the rest of the world gave the country a free pass. You can make a huge mistake. Just learn from it and don't repeat it. We could put Trump 1.0 down as a moment of madness.

Trump 2.0? We have to face the reality that this is what the United States of America is now. This is the leader they chose. He won the popular vote.

Expansionism good, two legs bad. I wouldn't be at all surprised if he's actually serious about annexing Canada. In which case I'll have to up sticks again Andy?

All things come to an end, and so too will the Russo-Ukrainian war. I have no issue with and I look forward to the peace.

How did you think things were going to end?

I meant do you support Trump's proposal to make Canada the 51st state?

I thought/think things in Ukraine/Russia would/will end with thousands of dead Ukrainians, Russians, North Koreans and mercenaries, a generation of people worldwide with even less faith in their leaders/institutions, and a line redrawn on a map.

I don?t take it seriously. I suspect he wants us to spend more on our military and this is his way to threaten us into doing so. We?ll probably end up complying.

I see Steve Bannon was also sending his heart out to everyone with a Musk style salute at the CPAC conference last night.

So much love they are spreading. Either that or he is just awkward like Musk and the Proud Boys.

Hes autistic, he didnt mean it, its Roman, dont take it seriously, he was owning the libs, the dems are worse, freeze peach innit?

Take your pick.

What a tool.

Yeah that's a nazi salute. A crap one - don't think he'd get a job as an extra in a WWII film, but it's one nevertheless. There is no way that's accidental. Trying to create outrage.

I did eventually see the video of Elon's too. It, too, was a Nazi salute. You could argue he didn't mean it, or whatever, but what else was it? Pretty blatant.

The nazi salutes aren't telling us anything we didn't know already - its 21st century fascism.
