Who needs basing rights when you have the most luxurious resorts in the world, so luxurious you won't believe how luxurious they are.

You'll love Putin.  And if you try to leave, Operation Keelhaul 2.0 will drag your ass right back.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

I don't think Trump is going to nuke anything Seedy. Be an ass for 4 years sure, but the founders built in safeguards for that eventuality.  :hug:

Hell, none of our Brit posters have resorted to cannibalism yet in wake of Brexit despite predictions by some to that effect.

What safeguards are you referring to?

The Republic? As idiot-proof a design as any devised by Enlightenment thought.

Plus Trump will be in a coalition government with the GOP, he'll be busy wrangling both them and the Dems.

Have you seen the Labour party? :mellow:

Your description of the safeguards that would prevent Trump from nuking hither and yon is "The Republic?"   Really? :huh:

There's plenty of options.  Military coup, assassination, shiny objects to distract him.  We're all good.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Oh yeah, those first two options sound stellar...

When your fallback to "using nuclear weapons" is "military coup", we kinda have a problem.

In all seriousness would they command to use a nuke be cause for impeachment due to mental defect or something?

Apparently Donald Trump has invited Gennifer Flowers to sit in the front row at the debate.
