US Politics Thread

[laserblue]

I've absolutely no clue why Trump thought releasing even a redacted version of this document would exonerate him.

Because he wants to fight this case, not in the courts, but on social media where he can rile up his fuckwitted poorly educated followers to cause mayhem and distract from his criminality and treason.

Even in a staggering list of grifts and cons, this one stands out as being especially sad. It’s feasible this was written and designed by a nine-year old.

The grift is never ending and proves Lincoln's adage that you really can fool some of the people all of the time.

Personally, I'm holding out for photos of America's President nude, pissing on Russian whores in a brothel!

You need to contact Mr. V. Putin, c/o the Kremlin, Moscow, Russia. If you ask nicely he might even let you have a copy of the whole watersports tape.

As events unfold and evolve, so too does my opinion on the state of US politics.

The Supreme Court's recent anti-popular rulings, especially the overturn of Roe v. Wade, seems to have impacted US politics already. Democratic and neutral voter outrage so far seems to outweigh Republican rejoice on these rulings.

And, seemingly out of nowhere, Biden has managed to pass several huge bills in the legislature in spite of razor-thin margins. Biden's popularity is on the rise accordingly, in spite of inflation (which is attenuating somewhat - but complete control over inflation if it ever occurs is a years-long prospect).

And Trump's reappearance into front-page news propelled by his refusal to turn over top secret documents at Mar-a-Lago both enrages the MAGA Republicans and infuriates Democrats. Some neutrals and traditional Republicans seem to be less inclined to vote for Republicans in light of Mar-a-La-gate.

Thus the previously unimaginable is taking shape - it now seems that Democrats may retain control of the Senate, and have an outside chance to retain control of the House.

Now - it seems realistically possible that the USA will remain Democratic instead of becoming Fascist. It's a close thing though - only time will tell.

Greetings Comrade!

It's come to my recent attention that you possess exciting Golden Shower videos staring the current rightful President of the United States.

Please let me know how I can access these exciting moments.

By the way - The Donald tells me that, by standing order, he's declassified the videos, so it's A-OK for you to send them to me!

Do Svidaniya, comrade Putin!

He is a spy, this shouldn't be a shock. He actually asked Putin live on TV in a debate with Hillary Clinton several years ago now to do him a favour and dig up more shit that would benefit him. So what did they do before that for him? He is compromised, and this is what foreign agents have to do to pay that back. Shouldn't be a surprise, the man is bent

Quick edit on that: we are paying the bills that empowering Putin brings. Literally.

Just a normal GoP President that won’t be remembered in 50 years time we were told by someone now strangely absent.

Seems like you are standing on the toes of a pygmy here.

Or it really is something that only geniuses understand, and if he popped into tell us our brains would physically melt like at the end of the 4th Indiana Jones film.
