Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[Edge-]

Actually, yes! Trump also threatened to invade and annex Gaza, in order to turn it into luxury resort.

shit, and gaza. how man wars, now?



six new wars!

[PhaelixWW]

shit, and gaza. how man wars, now?

Eh, still just one, right? I mean, they're all just American territories rebelling against their rightful leadership, right?

So just, like, a widespread civil war.

Right?

If Trump starts a war with Denmark over Greenland, and therefore NATO, I wonder how much of a pretzel the MAGA will twist themselves into to justify the action. Same with Canada.

Well, they have plenty of practice.

China, Japan, South Korea will jointly respond to US tariffs, Chinese state media says

That's not good. Only Trump, the Uniter, could make those three countries work together and put up a united economic front against the US.

I don't think people understand how much these countries still hate each other and yet they coordinate on this.

Trump did this.

This is one EO I can get behind seeing as Ticketmaster(Live Nation Entertainment) is absolutely notorious for basically gouging fees out of everything along with pretty much requiring acts to only use venues they use otherwise they won't sell tickets for them. I know it won't do much about them but this is one area that should be dealt with. As much as there are other much more pressing issues, at least this is directing the FTC to look into Ticketmaster and other such entities.

Uhm, the EO does nothing against ticketmaster. The EO also probably does nothing against scalping because how can it? The companies simply don't care about scalping and probably do it themselves.

Could you imagine raising a kid who has hours of homework each night, is involved with sports or other after school activity, and has to work 6 days a week?

Absolutely no consequences to that at all! /s

And the Birth Rates will drop ever lower...

To be clear, China and Korea hate Japan because of imperial japan which might as well be ancient history at this point. They have no reason to continue to beef with each other especially if the other super power that is supposed to be the ally of Japan and Korea is trying to screw them over. There is ofc some island disputes between Japan and China but that is small potatoes compared to the grand scheme of things.

China is literally in do nothing = win mode thanks to trump. For every country Trump tries to screw over with a trade war China will be there to offer itself up as a trade partner to them. And hell, to be completely honest at this point Xi and the CCP are more trustworthy than Trump. At least it's the devil you know not the one who changes his mind on who to target every day.

Trump did this.

Maybe it was his 95²d chess plan to unite the world against a fascist America all along. Truly, he will go down as one of the presidents of all time.

The Trump administration acknowledged in a court filing Monday that it had grabbed a Maryland father with protected legal status and mistakenly deported him to El Salvador, but said that U.S. courts lack jurisdiction to order his return from the megaprison where he’s now locked up.

The case appears to be the first time the Trump administration has admitted to errors when it sent three planeloads of Salvadoran and Venezuelan deportees to El Salvador’s grim “Terrorism Confinement Center” on March 15. Attorneys for several Venezuelan deportees have said that the Trump administration falsely labeled their clients as gang members because of their tattoos. Trump officials have disputed those claims.

But in Monday’s court filing, attorneys for the government admitted that the Salvadoran man, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, was deported accidentally. “Although ICE was aware of his protection from removal to El Salvador, Abrego Garcia was removed to El Salvador because of an administrative error,” the government told the court. Trump lawyers said the court has no ability to bring him back now that Abrego Garcia is in Salvadoran custody.

I do believe the administration when they said they made a mistake. This is why you NEED due process. Also maybe dont send people to Salvadoran prisons?

The evil here is the refusal to remedy the error and leave the man in prison

[Mayhem]

Well, good luck. Trump just needs to find a country that's willing to build a comparable prison, then fund it, then send people there in error.

Whoopsies

Well, shit. If he's really got these 3 working together, give the man the Nobel he so desperately craves lol

Oh, but they've already been trained with the justification of "national security" for when they need to defend any actions.

Regardless if it is true that this was a mistake or not... they still don't get a pass on the mistake, because the skipping of due process (where the error would have been made obvious) was very much a CHOICE of this administration. Trump decided to skip due process, consequences be damned. He and his cronies now don't get to call "oopsie"

As to their inability to bring him back by court order... maybe they should try to just ask, adding 'please'.

I completely agree but that doesn't change the fact that Korea at least on the political level still hates Japan to a point where it's almost comical.

Obviously Japan is at fault for not just apologizing, but as you mention by now it's so long ago.

The inability to bring people back is what I said was the most evil thing in this case. Bc after the Trump admin loses all of their cases there is no guarantee that the innocent people that got sent to Salvadoran prisons would be brought back. The Salvadoran government can simply say no and the Trump admin being what they are can say that they tried and "give up"

My comment is that according to the court document you apparently didn’t read he was a convicted MS-13 gang member with no legal right to be here.

My further comment is that it’s gross to get fired up about gang members getting deported while ignoring citizens they victimize.

Although I said it was a mistake and the gov says in front of the court that it was a mistake the vicepresident seems to think it was intentional

Uh so anyone getting the feeling the guy is already dead and that's why they are saying they can't?

This is more likely than you think. He was granted relief from deportation bc he credibly argued that he was fleeing gangs in El Salvador. The same gangs that he now shares a prison with now

I didn't until you mentioned it.
He defo dead

And the Birth Rates will drop ever lower...

America is a place where men would rather spend 10k to attend a grift sex-trafficking expo to get laid(and probably not even then) instead of bettering themselves and make the environment more safe and conducive for women to want to give birth.

Something tells me the only real impact this sex-trafficking expo will have is to crash Grindr in that area.
