Great image of a “free” nation when the secretary of defence is by his side for the announcement. Trump is the master of the boiled frog approach. Each time just a little more gets taken away.

Shouldn’t you be asking Wendy’s husband?

It really amuses me that someone who hates drag queens wears so much make up, shoulder pads and has essentially high heel shoes.

There is a quiet war on the internet happening. Under the guise of banning social media for under 16s it’s rapidly coming in that to have any social media account you have to register showing your government issued ID. People traveling to the US are being forced to show their social media content and I’ve seen some Americans are also nervous about travelling with their phones, computers etc due their social media content.

I got to Fitz a day or two before the boogie last year and there was a family living in a tent at the airport. They up and left leaving their dog tied up / just abandoned it. Dog didn’t get eaten. It had a happy ending as a skydiver either adopted it or got it re homed as the local dog pound puts dogs down if they aren’t taken. It was a pretty sad situation and I feel reflected the stuff some Americans are facing, but also the number of good people that are willing to make a difference.

I don’t understand? Maybe I’m just slow today. I don’t think anyone should be left to starve or live on the streets. But if you “refuse” to work you don’t deserve to be handed life’s luxuries. Sorry but to me an apartment or house of your own is a western luxury and many do with far less. Likewise money for McDonalds and cigarettes is a luxury, but a soup kitchen/cafeteria providing free food for those in need isn’t.

It’s a fine balance, but I think there are aspects where we have it wrong. I believe it’s a basic human right to have food and shelter. I would prefer to support a welfare system that provides a financial safety net for people who lose their job for a period of time, perhaps 12 months. But I would like to see long term welfare people housed in dormitories, given free public transport and with an onsite cafeteria that provides healthy food for free. I really struggle with the concept that “welfare” is providing people with free car registration, all speeding fines paid by the state, and a relatively high welfare check. The system (here at least) is skewed and it’s actually better to not work than to have a menial labour job as you earn less. Our menial labour is being done by visa holders who can’t access public services, or the few that have the desire to work. It’s not all that abstract for me. I work a good job and am on a decent salary that places me in the top 5-10%. But after bills, mortgage and insurance etc I have less disposable income than my 25 year old son and his girlfriend where the subsidies all add up along with their welfare checks.

What’s interesting is a few months ago I went back through the dz.com Time Machine about 20 years ago. Trump is not the beginning of decline in US politics, but rather the acceleration of it. There are posts about Bush administration lies and undermining your democracy. I think that time will show how politicians on both sides of the aisle have let you all down. The bill on insider trading highlights a bipartisan problem with politicians. I think the dems let the American public down by covering up Biden’s mental state. I think the dems also lost sight of the majority and got swept up in championing various minority rights at the expense of the broader public’s concerns. For what it’s worth I think some aspects of Trumps policies while being implemented in a horrific way do reflect problems that need to be addressed. Just that HOW it is being done is wrong. The west broadly has become fat and lazy and that isn’t sustainable. The fact that manual labour is seen as being beneath us and that we would rather sit and drink beer while being on welfare because picking fruit is a job that is for others is an issue for example. I’m concerned for the future as the US loses its position in the world. I worry that you’re going to begin to overtly use military force to cling to your empire. I have a son in the military and am proud of him, but I’d hate him to give his life so that Bubba in the US can drink beer on his porch and not have to work.

I’m willing to bet that JD will try a takeover using 25th or similar mechanism. I can’t quite decide if it will be before midterms and quite soon, but I more lean towards the point where he can serve 10 years. The argument of he’s unelectable is a moot point as I don’t believe you have free and fair elections. Also what JD believes and reality don’t need to match.

Trump derangement syndrome? Rename alzheimers after him?

He’s fucking insane. Lets escalate to threatening nuclear war and at the same time give away strategic submarine movements.

On the way? You guys have gone from leader of the free world to leader of banana republic’s.

Tariffs, trade deficits, I’ll sue you.

I swear Trump watched the Dictator movie and thought it was a documentary. The Oval Office looks like Saddam Hussein decorated it. I’m just waiting for a golden crown to replace the red hat - it’s slowly happening as he’s switched to white. Next will be white with gold writing

Interesting video circulating of Trump cheating at golf. Most people learn by 5 or 6 years old that cheating at a game just makes you look dumb.

Nobody signed up for my onlyfans, not sure what I’m doing wrong:)

White people can’t break immigration law. They have been washed by the blood of Christ.

Anyone watch the new South Park? Trump will be spewing.

https://www.irishstar.com/news/us-news/full-list-trumps-dementia-symptoms-35610045 No idea who this person is whose saying it but it’s quite funny.regarding Trump having dementia. “Well the bad news is, Trump has rage issues. The good news is there’s no way he’s remembering the nuclear codes, OK?"

https://www.express.co.uk/news/us/2084252/jd-vance-tipped-replace-donald-trump-amid-health-scandal-concerns-says-political-expert this just popped up for me

Hi Keith, Not quite. I believe JD never truly became a Trumper. I think that he and others are simply using Trump to further their agenda and personal lust for power. The evangelicals and racist extremes (Mike Johnson, Steven Miller etc) would back whoever furthers their agenda most. Unlike the dems who shielded you all from Biden’s issues, I believe they will stick the knife in as soon as the liabilities grow. Sadly, the dems handling of Biden’s health give more legitimacy to a ‘coup’ due to health and potentially greater support to a JD take over. As to whether Americans like JD or not, that isn’t really an issue. The extremists are emboldened to think they can do what they like.

The groundwork is being laid to oust Trump. The reporting on his health concerns is ramping up and he’s losing support of the hard core racists. My money has been on JD taking over, I had anticipated it being after midterms, but I’m prepared to say it will be by the years end now. Miller and Co need the Nazi support to continue their agenda.
