What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

[Maladict]

And unlike Grey fox I don't think an invasion will come. I personally think he'll fuck up north americas economy and then die on the shiter before his term is up. Whether the next wave of American conservatives keep up the insanity or go back, I don't know. He's fucking with Mexico too, but isn't calling them the 52nd state. He's doing that to Canada because he likes to be a dick and found a trigger.

Invading Mexico would be an Afghanistan on a whole new level.

Welcome to the shopping channel presidency.

I give him one thing, he writes a mean looking shopping list.

Way better than my occasional scrawl.

[Syt]

I assume he had someone write that for him.

The thought did cross my mind, but I couldn't be arsed to google for example of his handwriting.

He could never be a doctor.

Odds are the prospective successors to Trump in the GOP will dial the crazy further up in a bidding war against each other. Anyone emerging as the true heir in the eyes of the nihilist cultists will be able to unleash them on everyone else so it's not joking matter if you are looking for power in thay band of scumbag traitors called the Republican Party.

Nvm the market is going back up

Everything was down again today.  It's a sad indictment of the economics of Trumpism when the market losing 1% of its value is considered a 'good day', and the president is doing ads for a company that has lost almost half its value over the last four months. 

So, all-time, has Trump passed Buchanan as the worst president in American history, or is it still too soon to tell?

What could have caused this decoupling of US aluminium prices from the world market?   Huge win!

You can defraud a fraudster after all.

Trump has backed down on his 50% steel & aluminum tariffs, so Ford has back down on his electricity export tariffs.  They're supposed to meet on March 13th.

Still keep on the original 25% so Ford blinked first?

I can't follow...

Sorry, was asking if trumps keeping the original 25% tariff. And if so then Ford gave up first.

You say that, but how many grunts are MAGA? I mean how much animosity did soldiers have against the viets and they oppressed them just fine. Serious question, did America have a grudge against Vietnam? I mean the elites hated the communists, but the actual viet people? Soldiers are soldiers, and have always been soldiers. Get shot at a few times and the good will dries up fast.

There was a lot of animosity against the Viet Cong among the Americans generally and the army specifically. The VC were no angels.  Terrorist attacks were a specialty of theirs. Add that to the known brutality of Communism and you get a lot of people thinking that they are on the side of the angels.

None of that applies to Canada.The very first thing you would see if Trump ordered an invasion would be a mass resignation on the part of officers who had no obligated service left, and the second would be a refusal of many soldiers to leave the barracks.  Yeah, the most MAGA of the MAGAts might be gun ho, but even they would think twice before risking their lives on a such a stupid mission.  The number of excuses for non-action would clog the communications channels.
