IMO we had a good run. No way trump won every swing state. If there's another election...

[brush]

who will trust it's outcome? It's doubtful it will even happen. trump is plowing ahead with these totally incompetent nominees for major cabinet posts as fast as possible...flunkies who will do whatever trump, Miller, Bannon and ther rest of the trump cabal tell them to do. Maybe to stave before there's off a recount?

Our NATO allies are former allies now as trump will pull us out of it and turn Ukraine over to Putin who has Alexandre Dugin, the deconstructionist Russian philosopher whispering in his ear that the Russian Empire should stretch from Vladivostok to the shores of the Atlantic. Aparently the II times zones Russia already encompasses is not enough.

Dugin, btw, is where Bannon got all of his destruction of the deep state philosophy from.

Once trump has gifted Ukraine to Putin, Poland, Belarus and the Baltic states are next and with the US out of NATO, God help us. Is Europe ready to step up and stop Russia?

Once again, now way trump won ALL of the swing states. I will never believe that. I may have been born at night, but not last night.

And let's not forget that the corrupt SCOTUS gave trump total immunity on 'official acts' to do whatever he wants (translation: commit crimes, kill people on Broadway)

I won't say we're listing precariously towards a failed state status, but towards a failed democracy surely.

1. The House is narrow. In 2017 Republicans had a 47 seat majority.

Trump has no mandate, and can't spend his way to prosperity because of the deficits. More debt will raise inflation.

His Cabinet will do a lot of damage but they lack experience and expertise in top of government positions.

He will deport about 300 people and then be tied up in court forever. Congress will balk at the cost.

Tariffs will be on steel. End of story.

Moreover, markets are at an all time overextended nose-bleed high. They will crash at some point. Crypto cannot save it.

There is NO upside to the second Trump administration. But he just wanted to make noise, steal some more equity, and stay out of jail. He made a lot of noise to do so.

2. He and his cabal are in charge though. Another election is doubful. He's got immunity to do as he pleases.

4. True enougn, paraphrasing "Caribou Barbie", residents of Vladivostok can see Alaska from their house.

But what do you mean it's good news of losing Rs in senate and congress?

6. "No way trump won every swing state."

You are free to believe what you want of course, but there is not a shred of evidence so I have to say its a loony belief.

7. Loony to you. But ya better believe this. We are now a dictatorship...

no longer a democracy. Corrupt SCOTUS, gave tump total immunity for 'official acts' which means he can deport, imprison, KILL people on Broadway with impunity.

The consequences of that hasn't even started to unfold.

Again, we had a good run.
