Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[Draco-Onis]

He’s got a rotation of like 5 favorite deranged things that he likes to bring up when he wants to divert attention. It’s Greenland today. Next week it will be the Somalis from Minnesota.

It's not a distraction Peter Thiel and his oligarch cabal want Greenland, Trump thinks he can make a killing looting the natural resources especially as climate change occurs. It's also a good choke point for more oil and resources in the artic, Greenland was never off the menu. It's just like he feels the US should own Canada, these might seem like distractions but it goes hand and hand with the neo con view that the Americas belongs to the US.

Which defeats the stated goal of revitalizing American shipbuilding...

Ok, so this is the alleged design + specifications. This sounds like fantasy.

To solidify the grift these ships are going to be build using Elon Musk's optimus robots because we need to give more tax payer money to the world's biggest welfare queen.

Oh I know he’s serious. Two things can be true at the same time.

So...it's a diesel electric ship that's supposed to generate enough power for a worthwhile rail gun AND 2 up to 600kw lasers while also powering a massive sensor array and all the conventional weapon systems.

I'm no naval engineer, but I'd like to see the napkin math on that. The size would make sense if it's basically just a massive floating diesel power plant.

Anyway, they better start building the shipyards that are supposed to make these right now.

Trump cancels all offshore wind projects due to "national security" concerns

Don't you just feel so safe?

I like the claim "they're dangerous because they deflect radar". All solid objects deflect radar. By this line of "logic" Trump Tower is a National Security Lol. This is just the best the people Trump yelled at could find to try to give the courts an excuse.

In his latest court filings, Trump has been claiming that he can't stop construction of his White House ballroom because it's needed for national security. He's discovered national security is just a convenient buzzword that mostly lets him do what he wants and makes it a lot harder for people to stop him.

Welp Sunrise Movement gave Biden a F- on the environment. What were voters supposed to do.

Also

TRUMP TAKE BEEF AND JEEBS

Tyson Foods is closing its beef plant in Lexington, Nebraska, laying off 3,200 workers next month in a town of just 11,000.

Nebraska voted for Trump and is the home of DOGE's very own Mr.BigBallz. Dunno how they explain this to their neighbors.

A few posts I could share, but this one stands out a little differently to me.



These days, Trump basically signs his tweets in some way. So, while I don't doubt Trump thinks "everybody else in America" wants him to host this, I'm kinda curious as to who is testing whether people want him to move away from the presidency and into more TV work lol

Is he looking for an off-ramp?
Trump sees the polling, the mid-terms are all but certain unless he reverses course on several policies.
It would fit trump's reality to step down and be something stupid on TV and call it a win instead of him getting destroyed next election.
Can't fire him if he quit, eh?

wind farms? national security issue

NYT reporting negatively on him? national security issue

stealing classified documents and storing them in a bathroom and semi-public ballroom? not a national security issue

i think i'm beginning to get the hang of this!

No, he's just bragging that he's the best at everything he does.

I've read some posts from conservatives on Reddit where they say that all is excused because he is "doing great things" and is a "very effective president". I am not sure there is anything that we could dig up that would truly turn away his core followers. They're that devoted.

When they're calling him "God's imperfect servant" there's literally no dissuading them.

I saw a video of someone being interviewed who claimed that the very fact that he is president is proof that God made him president and should be followed, because "God acts with intentionality" and to do otherwise would be to defy God. When the interviewer asked if people in 1930s Germany should have followed Hitler because her logic means God intentionally put him in charge too, she just said they weren't talking about Hitler, they were talking about Trump, and refused to acknowledge the flaw in her reasoning.

No, it is just his standard ego patting.

Oh I have seen a few

"We a really need to focus on the horrible biden economy. That is whats really important"
"You would do it too if you were rich or in that position"
and the classic "Its is all fake, look at Clinton"

The second one needs a visit by the cops because that's fucking messed up and dangerous.

It all really boils back down to “just so long as the libs don’t win.”

<Trump insults death of the Reiners>

What would Trump have to do to get his approval rating below 25%.

<week later>
Looks like we're approaching the event horizon.
