Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[DarkTZeratul]

And they can make every vote take 15 minutes minimum.

Remove general consent from the proceedings and force them to read every bill and amendment.

Unfortunately the most that really does is annoy their fellow Senators. It doesn't prevent anything from passing, or even meaningfully delay anything more than a day or two, tops. Sure, they COULD do it, but would it really matter if they did?

Would show that they're resisting of nothing else.
But as I've said. They ought to be at protests if they want to claim to be opposition.

[Poopymonster]

I'm not worried about current republicans, I'm worried about a smart nazi taking over the party because republicans have shown with Trump they will bow down and change if it gets them wins.

We already have Nazi fucks like Musk and Ellison talking about this to, so when the billionaires who will have to pay for it are talking about it you should pay attention. The threat is real.

Trump was alpha testing.
They see what worked, what didn't. What they can get away with and what people will stomach.
Beta testing will be massaging the message to make it more palatable.
Then we're completely fucked.

Problem is they're getting away with more than they dreamed of, they're "exceeding expectations", and Trump went too far and off script (as usual). So GoP are playing catch up/defense for their own alpha test.
Not even a hint of explosive blowback, which would have happened in a civilized country, regarding the files about Kid Rock, I mean Epstein Island.

Have we forgotten the Obama years? those kinds of things energizes your base, Democrats are not fighting republicans so much as voters who think they are weak spineless bitches for Trump. If democrats gave two shits about saving their image they would implement the McConnell playbook not play patty cake with republicans by voting alongside them. At the moment democrats for the most part are playing dead and letting republicans shoot themselves in the foot while that might work for a few election cycles it will bring us right back here in a few years.

I must be out of touch with today's youth, because when I was younger and someone posted this....
RFK Jr plunges into ice bath – in his jeans
not only would I never vote for them again until the end of time, I would probably feel such shame I would never mention it. Is it me? Is this cool? Is this what Maga thinks is cool?

I expected a laugh track, or at least a rendition of "Its hip to be square" playing instead of (grandpa) kid rock's ... song?

Oh dear wait until you see this.

RFK Jr: I’m not afraid of germs — I snorted cocaine off toilet seats

You have to understand these MAGA people think Trump is an example of masculinity, a morbidly obese 80 year old who wears full face of make up and dances to the YMCA.

Imagine the career of any other politician or public figure before 2016 if they had said such a thing.
Where the hell is our goddamn cancel culture? And for that matter where's all the me too people, there 3 million documents full of pervs released!!

[diller]

All Air Transat US flights to be cancelled by June

Apparently no one wants to go to the US!

Republicans have completely removed morality, shame and accountability from their being. They only apply those things to the opposition, I hope against all hope that democrats stop playing that game. We need a Machiavellian approach to power just like them, screw their pearl clutching we are going to shove that medicare for all down their throats. We have to be of the mind that we are going to drag them into a better life kicking and screaming.

This is the only impact that Trump (or at least, his rich backers) will actually respond to: him causing them to lose money.

[Draco-Onis]

If you can take solace in anything, it’s that in no world will republicans ever, ever offer a UBI or universal healthcare.

I hate to be that guy but the problem is that each time democrats fail to deliver republicans get power back. We have been in this yoyo my entire life people are angry and no party is really delivering. Unless democrats take the next chance they get if we get it to radically change this country just like Trump has we are fucked. There will be no second chances, President Tucker Carlson / Nick Fuentes or whatever clown they pick next will learn from Trump's failures.

why are they working so hard to try to make kid rock cool?

It’s not like they have any other celebrities anyone cares about on their side.

And hey, kid rock was on the Simpsons! In like… 1998 I think, but c’mon, the Simpsons! That’s what all the kids these days are watching, right?

Strangely enough I had friends that hated that song when it was released and now they are trump supporters. Joining Maga is all about abandoning your principles.

He just looks so bad in that video, like a creepy, perv, old uncle.

Republicans are collecting pedophiles like they were pokemon, afterall.

Do not give away Diego Garcia, Trump tells UK

"Prime Minister Starmer is losing control of this important Island by claims of entities never known of before," he said.
"We will always be ready, willing, and able to fight for the U.K., but they have to remain strong in the face of Wokeism, and other problems put before them."

This is now his 3rd 180° on the topic - approve / disapprove / approve / disapprove

"entities never known of before" lol

Wait, is the island woke? I feel like I missed something in the midst of all the whiplash.

Everything's woke nowadays. Are you awake right now? Woke.

The mad-libz prompt trump has in place of a brain only has so many pejorative adjectives to put before any given noun.
