President Trump 2.0: The NEW one and only politics thread

In a letter to the interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin reviewed by Reuters, the office's criminal chief Denise Cheung wrote that the Trump administration had ordered her to investigate a government contract awarded during Joe Biden's administration and pursue a freeze of the recipient's ashets.

She said that neither request was supported by the evidence, which she said she was provided with by the Deputy Attorney General's office.

So the US-Russia meeting about the war in Ukraine has been expanded to include discussions about normalizing relations. This is the start of a US-Russian alliance.


If Donald Trump accedes to Russia annexing Ukraine by force, are you still "not a bad person" if you support him?
 
Trump may actually send Delta Force or other U.S. Special Forces into Mexico to go after the drug cartels. That would get into prickly issues of national sovereignty and add that if you try to notify Mexico and get approval first it would probably leak to the cartels. Also, I think the cartels would hit back. We've never seen the level of cartel violence in the U.S. that Mexico has. I don't want to think what a Sinaloa Cartel run terrorist attack would look like.


According to the NY Times:

  • The C.I.A. is conducting secret drone flights over Mexico to locate fentanyl labs. The Biden administration began the program and the Trump administration is expanding it.

I've often said here that nothing matters anymore. The guy gets away with everything. His Fifth Avenue comment was the most accurate thing he ever said.

But as an exercise, is there anything he and his administration could do that would actually enrage enough of the population that goes too far? What is that line? Like, if tanks rolled into Canada tomorrow, would even that be enough for any supporters, however they might be, to be like, "OK, big guy, too far?"

I'm actually being serious. Is there a scandal that could ever be big enough?
 
I haven't take my meds for today, I guess, so I think you're right.

As Lou Gorman once said, "the sun will rise, the sun will set, and I'll have lunch." Let's see how I feel after that.

He'll send boots on the ground. He's always wanted to be a big time commander of a triumphant army.

At this point, "dead girl, live boy" would be survivable by Trump. He could name Putin to run DOGE and be cheered.
 
This is the sort of collective attack I want. Not sitting around, twiddling their thumbs muttering about what to do,

"Elon Musk fires cancer researchers and cuts their funding. Cancer will kill you or someone you love. Thus, Elon Musk wants to kill you or someone you love."

I wish Democratic politicians would learn to do this.
