Trump's Second Term

[Mojo]

So, at the risk of revisiting old ground...


About those checks and balances?

They give Trump the checks, and the money goes from their balances to his.

Remember when that thing that happened but didn’t happen happened?

Why do you hate Christmas?

 

[Andy_Ross]

Nah, the card's for the oligarchs yanking TACO's chains. They'll never get deported. Ripped to shreds during the revolution maybe,but deported never.

Boris had a similar 'fast track' for cash scheme for Russian Oligarchs.

What are the odds Dump will install a new, US-friendly dictator when/if they seize Venezuela? The trumpkins will go on about freeing the country and allowing free elections, but we all know neither Dump nor they care the tiniest bit about freedom and democracy. They don't want it at home, and they care even less about brown foreigners. In fact, since the cruelty is the point they'd probably be overjoyed if said brown people continue to be oppressed.


A golden one, obviously.

Machado is the perfect person, she's a nazi, a bootlicker a brown noser and perfectly willing to have every other Venezuelan murdered to be TACOs kept woman.

Giving her the "peace" prize is the equivalent of them snubbing Hitler in 1941 by giving it to Heydrich.

 

[Safe-Keeper]

He claimed there were so many they couldn't all get in, they were so eager they stood in the rain

If Dump cared about them that much he should have parted the clouds, smdh.

 

[Gulliver Foyle]

So, not college graduates who will keep the economy working then.

PS what I only realised now; the original bribe for this "golden shower ticket" was $5mn. Guess not even oil sheikhs want to live in ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ countries.

 

[P.J. Denyer]

Obviously AI. Dump would have toppled if Obama had as much as poked him with a finger.
Still priceless, though.

Look alikes. According to the sign behind them anyway.

 

[P.J. Denyer]

Given the fact that the normal action taken by the Trump administration is to blow up boats coming from Venezuela, just seizing them seems to be an improvement.

Depends if they made the crew walk the plank

 

[P.J. Denyer]

Corrupt CNN

Reporter: What changes do you want to see at CNN?

Trump: I am not involved in that, I will be probably involved maybe in the decision... I think CNN should be sold because the people that are running CNN right now are either corrupt or incompetent.

Reporter: Will that be a factor in the decision making?

Trump: In my mind, but I can be talked out of it

"I can be talked out of it"

Translation "Nice network you got here. Be a shame if [Pushes over studio light and it smashes on the floor] anything was to happen to it"

 

[P.J. Denyer]

Was there a reason given for why the tanker was seized?

Reasons are for little people, the King's whims are law.

 

[P.J. Denyer]

Corrupt administration, corrupt president, corrupt family.

But.. But.. Hunter Biden got a job!

 

[P.J. Denyer]

The Diamond Card got you a newspaper and a seat in the Lords.

House Intel Chair Rick Crawford on why he doesn't want video of the second Sept 2 boat strike released: "What the trained eye can detect from these videos may reveal sources and methods that would imperil troops." (But releasing video of the first strike didn't?)

Jan 6 rioters were the ones assaulted apparently.
Pardoning them was a great thing for humanity.

This is what is so infuriating about this entire MAGA ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊. 10 months later, we have video after video after video after video after video of ICE, under the command of this dictatorial regime, that have football tackled peaceful protestors, using their unmarked vehicles while masked up chasing people with their vehicles, and even using them as battering rams on public streets and even onto sidewalks, all for recording and holding them accountable for their actions, even without interfering.

The peril they might face is legal; action contrary to US military law and international law including the requirement to rescue seafarers in distress.

May place someone in peril of going to jail.

Trump cannot 'separate reality from fantasy' after seething Truth Social post: analysis​

"And, for some reason, most of the American establishment is still bending over backward to avoid saying the obvious: The Burger King is cooked." The columnist also observed Trump's brag about passing as many cognitive tests as he had is not a positive, and nor should the president be proud of his three passing grades.

Black wrote, "He makes a point of stating that no other president has gone through the battery of tests to which he has been subjected. The reason, unstated: most other presidents haven’t demonstrated the level of cognitive impairment our current one displays on a minute-to-minute basis."

And this gets enforced how? The ICC establishes its jurisdiction how?

Speaking of jurisdiction, how does that work with oil tankers sailing off other countries?

I mean, if the Duchy of Grand Fenwick imposed sanctions on Ruritania due to some disagreement they decide to classify as terrorism, and then goes and grabs Ruritania's oil tanker as it leaves Venezuela, is that OK? Is there a legal difference here, rather then just a difference in having the means to do it?

The code is more what you'd call guidelines, than actual rules ..

Trump's main problem is his brain isn't wired right. He has no comprehension ability. He may read something but doesn't know what it means.

He uses "hunches" to repeat things that sound educated. He tests them on his staff before going to the press room. Our stand up president is running out of jokes, so the replacement is just hate.
