US Politics Thread

[west didsblue]

Trump is solid (not in a good way) but I like Kennedy, he seems honest and cares about the US, probably not president material but neither is Harris, or Biden, or the last Bush.

He’s a fucking fruitcake conspiracy nut.

I don't agree with his take but I enjoy a different view. I don't think it will work out like that, but 10 years ago I didn't think the world would be like it is now either.

So it’s a discussion, based on nothing but a prediction. How’s it going to pan out, in your opinion?

The anti-vaccine, "pesticides cause body dysmorphia", cheating on his wife RFK?

Or do you know a different guy?

Don’t bother. It’s bollocks

He’s a fucking fruitcake conspiracy nut.

Ouch, he seems quite reasonable and grounded to me.

Trump is clinically insane.

You’ve done yourself no favors there, mate!

Pegging yourself to that fella has no effect on him, or American politics, but it screams something horrendous about you and your discernment.

You’ve made yourself easy to dismiss, so your next few observations and musings had better be fucking “solid”…and not in a Trump or RFK way!

This is surely a wind up

Trump has been pretty open about effectively starting another trade war with china via tariffs and oddly enough Taiwan too.
I think he will stop the support for Ukraine but frankly since zelinsky started talking nuclear I think everyone is getting cold feet. Not sure about Ukraines status post conflict. Although I don't want Putin getting it all his way I also don't want to return to a cold war with NATO and Russia staring at each other across the dnipro. I don't think trump will pull out of or disband NATO, but he will insist on member nations paying their way and not getting defence on the cheap by relying on the US European presence. Agree that trump will be isolationist and America first etc, but us corporate interests and reality will make that difficult. BRICS is certainly a challenge and will continue to strengthen while those nations are in economic growth while the west stagnates. Ultimately currency is an act of faith, and there is still some way to go globally before the dollar is replaced - not within a trump govt and probably not within his lifetime.

This maybe the best reason to go vote:

You do know he has a brain worm. And he talks like he's had a stroke.

It's almost like your talking about an entirely different person.
