US Politics Thread

I hope we're wrong. I'm holding out some hope. His behaviour with Russia-Ukraine has been positive so far. And he was great with the Gaza conflict

I'd be happy to be wrong. If Trump discovers some statesmanship and humanity. And the sycophants he has surrounded himself with grow a spine. But I won't be holding out much hope for that.

#Priorities?

it's a HUGE priority. Progressivism has gone too far. Promoting degeneracy and the destruction of the traditional family. Not just in the US, but in Europe as well. I'll ride with DJT on this one.

We clearly are not having the same conversation. I don't know why you should roll your eyes at a direct comparison, however much you try to prohibit it. I notice you have no opinion about how smart (or not) Trump is, while you are willing to say that you don't think Harris isn't, and based on nothing. You also don't address that he and his VP are far less qualified...basically than anyone who's ever held the offices.

I see you put "cult" in quotes, but do wonder how you define it, because your definition seems pretty elastic, if it includes college fraternities and rapper parties.

Smart-ass quips about Gabbard thinking "outside of the box" and "actually talking to people" doesn't address the downsides of her lack of qualifications, which you refuse to do.

Nobody is prohibiting you from anything Moxie. You talk of "qualifications" - maybe you should elaborate on that first. We've had peanut farmers, actors, and ex-CIA bosses... what qualifies you to be President of the USA? My main point was that by most metrics, the American standard of living has dropped over decades and some tribalists perpetually prop the status quo system up.

On another note, I think we will see massive changes worldwide over the next few years - a lot of turbulence, good and bad. Many old systems and ways of thinking will be destroyed.

Federberg posted an interesting video showing the Tech Giants in full prominence at the inauguration. I honestly don't think most people have ANY IDEA on how advanced some of the technologies are out there and a lot of ancient mysticism and quantum science will dovetail into some common understandable truth.
