Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[Santti]

I wonder if Trump is going to spam burner accounts now? Or just making a hundred of new accounts in whatever websites he can think of. Ooh, it'd be something akin to an easter egg hunt throughout the internet, but with Trump's accounts instead. Or an exploratory surgery for cancer growths might be a better analogy.

Near as I can tell, neither impeachment nor 25thing a President removes their pension or SS detail. If impeached, there is a second special vote to block him from that same office.

Well if it's in any... consolation, I guess... I don't think the GOP heads want Trump to ever run again. That might be their ultimate goal in all of this. So I could definitely see them pushing for such a thing.

But will they be able to win elections without his cultists.

Well gosh, if only someone had warned them.

Oh wait.

How were they to know they were going to be infested with cockroaches when they let the cockroaches in?

[Kaleredar]

A good question. But will they be able to win if Trump does actually run again, especially if it's under his own party?

The GOP, at this point in time, likely wants Trump forgotten about and gone as quickly as possible. Two years is a long time, and Trump's goons aren't very smart.

Not really a big point to making burners without someone to amplify you, which would just get that person banned... which means you could have just used their account in the first place.

[Kaleredar]

Well, as I've put it before... they sold their souls to the devil, never expecting that they'd get burned.

All he has to is phone his employer in Moscow. He can have the accounts he wants.

Not content to run out the clock, a federal judge wants to pad the score before Trump's time expires...

CNN: Federal judge blocks Trump administration asylum rule from taking effect

A federal judge on Friday blocked a sweeping asylum rule that had been scheduled to take effect nationwide in a matter of days, issuing yet another legal blow to the Trump administration.

The administration has released a series of rules restricting asylum over the last four years, making it nearly impossible for asylum seekers to have their claims granted. Friday's injunction blocks the implementation of one of those regulations, which had been introduced last summer and finalized in December.

The new rule had been scheduled to be implemented Monday.

Among the issues raised by Judge James Donato of the US District Court for the District of Columbia were the quick turnaround for public comment -- only 30 days -- and the appointment of acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf, who's come under scrutiny for unlawfully filling the role.

Donato became the latest judge to knock Wolf's appointment, saying in his ruling: "This Court is now the fifth federal court to be asked to plow the same ground about Wolf's authority vel non to change the immigration regulations."

He later added: "In effect, the government keeps crashing the same car into a gate, hoping that someday it might break through."

The rule is an example of the sorts of challenges President-elect Joe Biden administration will face in undoing the Trump administration's restrictionist immigration agenda, which it has pledged to do.

Under the rule, an individual's asylum claim could face greater scrutiny if the person traveled through at least one country while on the way to the US but didn't seek refuge there.

The Trump administration applied a similar rule to migrants traveling through Mexico from Latin America, but the latest rule would widen the scope of people who could fall under those restrictions, with some exceptions, such as a victim of human trafficking.

The regulation also says that living unlawfully in the US for more than a year before filing for asylum would be considered a "significant adverse factor," despite exceptions that currently exist. Similarly, failure to file taxes or having a criminal conviction could count against an individual's asylum claim.

Trump cultist are not the cult trump as much as people believe. Trump is just who represented them the most. They will always vote for the most racist party. So trump wont make them lose that vote. Infact if they want to clean that shit and go back mild racist, now is the only time. 4 years to point at liberals and cry, then come back without the evil mustache twriling mister magoo golfing. You can bank on democrate not delivering 80% of what people expect the promise for, then lower voter turn will set in again. Then you can slide in your milk toast racist and be just fine.

People want to pretend GA win was the $2000, but it really wasent, well okay it was, but not in the way you expect. Republicans didnt lose any vote because of this, the black communities of GA finally showed up to vote unlike other years. If they go back to not voting, red wins easily.

Lot of good/great meme's going around the internet re Trump and his attempted insurrection. My favorite so far by a long shot:

In the end, Trump cost Republicans the Presidency, the Senate, and the House. The son of bitch actually did it. He made America great again.

NYT: Trump “expressed regret about releasing a video on Thursday committing to a peaceful transition of power and condemning the violence at the Capitol” https://t.co/QkEyIWlo2a

I'm sure posted already.

What a surprise. As in Charlottesville and many after Trump was coerced into saying something contrite, but did not mean any of it.

Now now now, most those people's command of the english language was generally too good to be Trump.

Though come to think of it, people like Lockedout, Donatello Trumpi and Healingrain would usually just fly-by shitpost some random, usually rambling or unrelated sentence filled with monosyllabic words, so... maybe you're on to something.

[Corvus]

I'm guessing all the Trumpists are all in favour of 'socialising' private businesses who run social media now given the groppenfuhrer finally got called out for breaking the terms of service.

He can't take it back until the 20th. I'm convinced that video is the only thing that stopped Pence from ejecting him out the airlock. If he publicly recants he...oh, right. He lost every form of social media. And some antisocial ones. I guess he's safe.

I mean, he already called them patriots again AFTER that fake speech was posted.

They’re against businesses being able to exercise the right for them to deny them employment or service based on their racist opinions or refusal to wear a mask.

...But simultaneously in favor of the “intractible” rights of a businesses to be able to deny other people service if they’re LGBT or other things.


See the difference is that in the first one they feel like the victim while in the second one they feel like they can use it to vindictively assert what they feel is socially acceptable on to others.

I’m curious how they mentally rectify trump calling the capitol building terrorists “Patriots” whilst also believing it was all a false-flag attack by antifa posing as trumpsters.
