The Donald Trump thread

Re: The Donald Trump thread

I guess that depends on your definition of left leaning.
MSNBC and CNN I would certainly say are liberal. I would say the same about the WP and NYT too.

According to “All Sides”, PBS was Centrist and started leaning left around 2022.

My Wife and I now use the Ground News app.

Do you ever have any downtime or is Trump on your mind 24/7?

Um, if anyone was daft enough to go through this thread counting up the number of posts you and I have made in it, one of us would win by hundreds of posts - spoiler alert, it wouldn’t be me.

There is a huge contrast between the number of posts you made in Trump’s first term compared to his second one - you certainly weren’t on the fence regarding Trump between 2016 and 2020.

There is a very good reason for that. I was one person up against at least twenty Russia collusion believers!

And still you haven’t learned your lesson.

I suppose as a hopeless MAGA groupie you will always see the world through Trump’s eyes.

Sad!

For the rest of us - Trump is the gift that keeps on giving. An endless source of amusement, bewilderment and downright outrageousness. He’s also not very bright - not something I would usually use as an excuse to laugh at somebody. But when he gets voted in to lead the most powerful country in the world, you can’t help but laugh at his stupidity.

As for TDS, well, don’t get me started on that.

The notion spread by his adoring admirers that he’s playing 4 Dimensional Chess while he’s being not very bright means you have to laugh - the alternative is to cry.

Re: The Donald Trump thread

One thing I would say about Trump is that he’s quite a big sports fan, but it se3ms his knowledge does not extend to football, he seems to think the World Cup is a by invite only tournament.

Trump posting an AI image of himself as the Pope this week (the week of the Pope's funeral!) was so ridiculous it was genuinely a laugh out loud moment for a few of us in the office. You cannot imagine any other US president in history doing that.

Can you imagine the panic of the various advisors and press people in the white house as they realise what they have to go out to defend next. "he's done WHAT?!".

The only thing more remarkable than Trump's capacity to do something chaotic and bizarre is his supporters' mental gymnastics to rationalise it and decide that it's a good thing and all part of some intricate genius plan.

What is the line that trump would have to cross to lose the support of these people?

He is in a position where he could be an extremely dangerous person for the plebs, so it's worth keeping an eye on what he does, while ignoring what he says as that's mostly distraction.

Well he's already admitted he could shoot someone in cold blood in Fifth Avenue so it's not that. Apart from taking away their guns he's Teflon coated to them.
