Trump's Second Term

National approval didn't change much though .. the war did nothing. There is steady decline, but the averages are still around 40%.

Fascinating insight into how cults work, at the very least. Watching them go from 'wow, sure glad Kamala didn't win and invade Iran!' to 'I can't believe those pro-islamist libtards opposed invading Iran!' in just a couple of days, with a totally straight face, was something It'd expect out of some comedy ridiculing political cult mentality, not a real-life movement.

CNN:“MAGA GOP view of Trump, approve is 100%. If you are a member of MAGA in the GOP, you approve of Donald John Trump. 0% say that they disapprove… he’s the 1972 Miami Dolphins.”


Having read what Hunter S Thompson wrote about the Dolphins of that era, I'd love to have read him on Trump...

Wow! Not even Mao or Stalin got 100% approval!

Oh wait...

How many Donald Trumps did they poll in that survey?
 
So a massive dimunition of workers rights for USians in Canada then. Thanks JD Couchboy.
Probably a made up lie. All workers in Canada get the same basic legal rights. But if US-owned companies located in Canada treat their US workers the same as if they were in the USA, then how is that Canada's fault, Couch-◊◊◊◊◊◊?
 
Imagine, just for a second, Trump tweeting all day long - but nobody reading it!

No media articles, no breaking news, no forum posts about his endless whining.

Imagine, just for a second, this narcissistic geriatric, piece of fat getting ignored by all the world, sitting in his golden cages and no one caring about his whine-one-one calls to twitter...
When he's not in a position of power, it's lovely to be able to ignore him.

Convicted fraudsters Trump has pardoned this year:

Jason Galanis — ~$200M+
Joseph Schwartz — ~$38M
Lawrence Duran — ~$205M (Medicare fraud billed; ~$87M paid)
Carlos Watson — ~$60M investor fraud
Trevor Milton — ~$20M+ investor losses
Todd Chrisley — ~$30M bank fraud
Julie Chrisley — ~$30M bank fraud
Devon Archer — ~$60M tribal bond scheme
George Santos — ~$44K–$1M+ (multiple fraud schemes)
Michele Fiore — ~$70K charity fraud
Brian Kelsey — ~$90K campaign finance fraud
Scott Jenkins — ~$75K bribery/fraud scheme
Paul Walczak — ~$10M+ tax fraud
Adriana Camberos — ~$1M+ counterfeit/fraud

There's that. There's also how his Administration has eviscerated the actual fraud prevention and catching capabilities of the government while repeatedly paving the way for large scale fraud. Really, it's the usual Republican pattern of things. First, identify something that would be reasonable to be concerned about if it were a problem. Next, raise alarm bells constantly for a long time, regardless of whether it actually is a meaningful problem. While in power, sabotage the existing safeguards, incentivize potential criminals to do the crime and give them justification (the other side is already doing it), and do loud and flashy but empty/counterproductive action to address the issue to position themselves as being against what they're enabling.

He did say MAGA GOP view. Anyone that doesn't approve of him isn't really MAGA GOP. See how that works?
Exactly. 100% of hardcore Trump fans are Trump fans.

I mean, what else does "if you are a member of MAGA in the GOP" mean otherwise? It's literally "if you unswervingly approve of Trump". If you harbour the slightest doubt, you are no longer a member. QED
