Trump's Second Term

Trump is currently calling the Ukrainian leader a dictator while his VP is calling that same leader a liar. So we're getting there. Give it another month and ask these same questions again. We can track it to see how it evolves.

Oh yeah. I was being sarcastic of course. Trump and his lackeys have sold out Ukraine.

Either they are on Putin’s side or they are amazingly incompetent and morally bankrupt idiots.

Well last time he listened to the adults in the room, and I thought he would do the same here. Alas, I was wrong.

He hated the adults and they hated him. He realised on J6 the power he really had and the Supreme Court in the greatest act of cowardice ever confirmed it.

I suppose the point that other posters, including Gulliver Foyle are trying to make is that if you call yourself a Republican then you are associated with the Trumpist MAGA party, its policies and so on. You may try to distance yourself from those policies but they are so intrinsic to the party that calling yourself a Republican who disagrees with the Trumpist MAGA agenda makes as much sense as calling yourself a vegan who eats meat, when plant based alternatives are easily and affordably available - sooner or later you either have to stop eating meat or stop claiming to be vegan.

If you are genuinely against the MAGA Republican party then perhaps you are a former Republican. Heck the Democratic Party has lurched so far to the right in an attempt to capture the centrist vote that they're politically to the right of the Republican Party of Reagan, Bush I, Nixon or Eisenhower.

Which of the Democratic Party's current actual policy platforms (as opposed to the caricatures and fabrications of the policies in the right wing media) are too left wing for you to associate yourself with that party ?

The thing is, the non MAGA Republicans are now called Rinos. The Maga dominated Republican party regard them as being traitors.

The interesting thing is it's one of the jobs of the FBI to keep tabs on people expressing anti-American views. Unfortunately in this context, "anyone that wishes to do harm to our way of life and our citizens" could far too easily become "anyone who speaks out against President Trump or Elon Musk." That's the scary part.

He already said he's going after the media and anyone that helped rig the election against Trump

in a Free Market, that would not happen: gold storage comes at a cost, so holding it when prices rise is not rational to do - unless you have a monopoly.

I don't follow the cost argument. If I have 100 tons of gold then, sure, there's a real cost of storing it in a big, guarded vault. If I sell half of it, I still need my big, guarded vault.
 
Hegseth just fired Lisa Franchetti, the Chief of Naval Operations.

Get DEI out of the military.

Alright.
Everyone who said Democrats shouldn't break any norms, lest Trump will do so, too: line up so you can all get a slap in the face.
