Trump can't hide the fact that he thinks most people are dogs.

As long as a dictatorship*is not imposed on the United States, Mr. Comey will not be going to prison since he committed no crime.

Flynn pleaded guilty to one felony count of "willfully and knowingly making materially false statements and omissions to the Federal Bureau of Investigation" about conversations with the Russian ambassador to the United States, Sergey Kislyak, "in violation of 18 U.S.C. In a prior era he would have been summarily executed for treason.

Once a respected soldier by men who served under him, it has been reported that they were alarmed how he mentally degraded and fell of the cliff of Q conspiracy theories.

*Based on Trump's rapid mental decline and the fact that each day he acts out in a way more bizarre than the day before (for example the Gaza AI video), I think the imposition of a dictatorship is more likely than not.

"President Trump on Tuesday shared an AI-generated video depicting the devastated Gaza Strip as an opulent resort emblazoned with his name. The video was immediately scorned by many Palestinians."

Why would the Palestinians be upset?
Isn't Trump setting them up in GREENLAND?

You forgot to mention that the GOP was making cuts in the same programs.
Why did you fail to mention this?

This is the link that is provided in the twitter post above that you embedded by Stephen Semler:

A leaked 50-page Republican budget document lays out a menu of options to cut SNAP, Medicaid, and other social safety net programs. Two proposals stand out for their combination of severity and likelihood:

  • GOP's Medicaid cut: Eliminates the Affordable Care Act's Medicaid expansion, removing coverage for 13 million people. The GOP estimates this will reduce spending by $561 billion. (p. 20)
  • GOP's SNAP cut: Reverses Biden's 2021 benefit adjustment, reducing monthly benefits by $36 per person. The GOP estimates this will reduce spending by $274 billion. (p. 25)

We have 100 Million people on food stamps? How many are illegal immigrants, live in Mexico, Canada, etc.

You're wrong again.

There arent 100 million on food stamps.
Not even close.

Try 42 million.

Technically it's an average of 42M on SNAP per month.

If there's @12% turnover each month you'd have about 100M unique people on SNAP annually. Though admittedly we don't know that is what happens and that isn't exactly what was claimed.

In Trump's Washington, a Moscow-Like Chill Takes Hold DNyuz


https://dnyuz.com/2025/02/26/in-trumps-washington-a-moscow-like-chill-takes-hold/

"She asked too many questions that the president didn't like. She reported too much about criticism of his administration. And so, before long, Yelena Tregubova was pushed out of the Kremlin press pool that covered President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia.

In the scheme of things, it was a small moment, all but forgotten nearly 25 years later. But it was also a telling one. Mr. Putin did not care for challenges. The rest of the press pool got the message and eventually became what the Kremlin wanted it to be: a collection of compliant reporters who knew to toe the line or else they would pay a price.

……. The news media is being pressured. Lawmakers have been tamed. Career officials deemed disloyal are being fired. Prosecutors named by a president who promised "retribution" are targeting perceived adversaries and dropping cases against allies or others who do his bidding. Billionaire tycoons who once considered themselves masters of the universe are prostrating themselves before him.

Judges who temporarily block administration decisions that they believe may be illegal are being threatened with impeachment. The uniformed military, which resisted being used as a political instrument in Mr. Trump's first term, has now been purged of its highest-ranking officers and lawyers.
And a president who calls himself "the king," ostensibly in jest, is teasing that he may try to stay in power beyond the limits of the Constitution."

That is such a skewed view of things.

The deep state was an actual resistance movement against the first Trump administration. HRC, BIden, Harris others have openly discussed Resisting and continuing to fight. They and political opponents used lawfare to prevent Trump from being President in 2025. The agencies of government have been manipulated to advance the political interests of a party (or perhaps both but we don't know it yet). It is entirely foreseeable and appropriate that all of that is dealt with. That is not (just) retribution, it is cleansing our government of inappropriate people for their positions.

On top of that the government is a bloated heap of waste. It is appropriate for the Executive to try to right size and refocus government spending (Clinton and Obama tried the same thing).

It is a legitimate problem that a party can cherry pick to find a political hack US District Judge and that judge can halt the Executive branch. This cuts both ways. The only talk of impeachment I've seen is for judges who have an obvious political bias/conflict of interest and who have issued the most egregious injunctions. Even so, we know those judges won't be removed because not a single D Senator will vote for it.

I personally find the talk of Trump staying in office beyond this term patently absurd. Lump it right in there with Fascist and Existential Threat To Democracy. It is just lazy TDS fearmongering that falls on deaf ears outside a certain segment of the D party. There is no way this is happening.

The question I have is do purportedly educated people actually believe this? Or are they just demagoguing? I don't know which is worse, but either way is bad.

Lawfare and activist judges (who are cherry picked) is bad. Both sides have done it. But the judicial resistance to Trump has been unprecedented. The recent TROs (including the one stayed by Justice Roberts last night) have been patently absurd and unlawful.

Biden's orders were challenged, but there is no comparable example of multiple judges issuing TROs within days (sometimes hours) of executive actions. One judge received a TRO request at 11:00 pm. and issued a TRO the following morning - before the Government even had a chance to respond.

The supreme court is about to come down hard on this. And that was part of Trump's plan.

Hey, if Trump says he'd like to stay in office past his constitutional limit, why shouldn't we believe he will act upon it? Words have meaning, even for Trump.

That was the general drift of my comment. Trump says something outlandish and we're supposed to just say that Trump! What a character!

The last month shows he's willing to break any rules and customs that get in his way, Constitution be damned. If he's acting like he wants an illegal 3rd term, then we should believe he's going to try to have one. Better to be prepared for what might not happen than to get caught flat footed once again.

I'm interested in what the Trump supporters/apologists think about the AI video posted on his Truth Social account regarding Gaza. I found it to be a quite a significant indicator of character and judgment.

What say you?

*One of your crew said, in so many words, that it is just Trump trolling and owning the Libs and to view it otherwise is indicative of TDS.
Are the relatives of 75k+ dead Palestinians also susceptible to TDS and thus missing the great fun in it?

This is conspiracy theory nonsense.

First of all, Trump is trolling all the liberals by saying this type of thing. He knows they (and you) will overreact - in fact he's counting on it. It reminds me of Lucy and the football. You know what is going to happen, but Charlie Brown (the liberals) fall for it every time. It is funny (and odd) that you are so easily manipulated, both by Trump and the dems who lead the overreaction.

Beyond that, if Trump did try to run, he would be shut down immediately, He's not eligible to be on a state ballot and most (if not all) states would not list him. It is not different than a US born citizen or person under 35 attempting to run - they can't. And even if he was listed on ballots and somehow won the election (which is a fantasy), then he would not be inaugurated. Full stop.

You basically just did the thing I described above. You said that Trump doesn't really mean it when he says he wants a third term. In other words, don't believe him when he says the obviously bad thing. Just trolling!

Then you argue that the laws would not allow it. I actually agree with that, he would almost certainly be blocked. But that doesn't mean he doesn't want to try. I believe him when he says that.
