President Trump 2.0: The NEW one and only politics thread

[maumann]

Not sure if has been mentioned upthread, but an interesting theory as to why the whole Gulf of America thing is important: Biden's drilling prohibitions specifically cite the Gulf of Mexico, so GOP suits are thinking changing the name is enough to fight those restrictions in court on a technicality.

And guess who's going to Daytona today.

Can someone put a restrictor plate on his mouth while he's there?

Vile

Books mentioning slavery, civil rights removed from shelves at Fort Campbell schools - ClarksvilleNow.com

At Fort Campbell Schools, that meant teachers had to remove all bulletin boards that reference Black History Month and Black leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr., Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks, according to a source speaking to Clarksville Now on condition of anonymity.

Put references to King, Tubman and Parks back up on March 1.

"This has nothing to do with Black History Month. That was in February."

Easy peasy.

If I was President, I'd use my pull to go to every big sporting event possible. Even those not on Fox.

I'd be at the 4 Nations final.

Trump knows his base - men. I don't know if there is a similar way for a Dem President to show they get "their base." A videotaped speech at the Oscars? And just like in their timid approach to politics of late, Dems have a spotty record of attending the Army-Navy fb game. I don't know why. They could mix in an appearance at an Army-Navy women's basketball game to keep things equal.

Yeah, when I was reading the Republicans ripping on Biden for not attending the Army-Navy game, I just shook my head. How hard would it have been for Biden to do that? Sit on one sideline. Cross the field at halftime. Wave to the crowd. Sit on the other sideline. BS with some generals and admirals. Problem solved. One less thing to criticize him about.

Weeks of screaming about fiscal savings, layoffs, firings, clawing back $80M from NY, freezes …

And yet The Felon ONCE AGAIN flies to MAL for the weekend on AF1, then adds a trip to Daytona before going back to MAL and then will go back to DC.

Just how much does it cost to fly AF1 and the Beast and all the people-cars-stuff-SS planning for something like Daytona or the SB?

President Musk signed off on this, I guess.

It's easy to forget in the Covid blender that happened after but he did all this in 2020 too.

Unacceptable

The more that agencies, orgs, schools and others using fed funding that is now gone explain in specific detail why it happened and who caused it, the better.

The kind of national leadership Harris and Biden would have never provided.

Trump on the EU possibly banning food imports from the US: "I don't mind. Let them do it. Let them do it."
