Re: POTUS-DONALD TRUMP-and U.S. Politics catch-all
I can't help but think that Trump has laid the blueprint for a far more dangerous president. A more sinister but articulate, disciplined and intelligent candidate.
Re: POTUS-DONALD TRUMP-and U.S. Politics catch-all
Quite. In 2016 it already seemed unlikely that Trump would be the one chosen to 'drain the swamp', given his history. However, after 4 years of him in office it is now frankly laughable that any of his supporters would chose to use 'corruption' as a line of attack against an opponent.CrazyIslander wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 10:42 amThat smear tactic worked against Hilary last time but don't think people will be fooled twice now that they've gotten to know Donald better.
Trump is standing head to toe in human shit, pointing at the guy next to him and claiming that he smells a bit funny.
Re: POTUS-DONALD TRUMP-and U.S. Politics catch-all
Indeed. Tucker Carlson, for example, is banging exactly the same drum and is exactly as hypocritical and amoral. But he's also smarter than Trump because he's not in a significant mental decline and is able to hold on to a thought from one end of a sentence to the other.CrazyIslander wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 10:52 am I can't help but think that Trump has laid the blueprint for a far more dangerous president.

He would also be a 'political outsider' and - despite being enormously wealthy as a result of inheritance rather than competence - he has also been successfully casting himself as a representative of the downtrodden, under attack from the elites.

On the subject of Tucker Carlson

Here's hopingHunter Biden's former business partner Tony Bobulinski will appear on Tucker Carlson's Fox News show on Tuesday night with 'new allegations', which sources claim will 'bury' the Biden family.
Bobulinski has since early October been pushing the story of his time in business with Hunter Biden, 50, and his claims that Joe Biden was involved in the attempts to make deals.
Sean Davis, co-founder of The Federalist, tweeted: 'According to a source familiar with the planning, Bobulinski will play recordings of Biden family operatives begging him to stay quiet and claiming Bobulinski's revelations will "bury" the reputations of everyone involved in Hunter's overseas deals.'

It still works for some people. Trump has a history of pedo-lite behaviour from walking in to the change room of teen beauty contestants to being mates with Epstein and his relationship with his daughter. Yet they call Biden a pedo coz he kissed his grandchild.4071 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 10:53 amQuite.

Hunter Biden as a private citizen made money using his family name. Ivanka & Kushner made over $100m working as White House staff. Not to mention Trump using his hotels and resorts for official government business. Yet, we're talking about Hunter Biden being corrupt.

Its like wearing a seatbelt, 99% of time you didn't really need to wear it. Unfortunately for the US, they decided break the mold and went with the Chaos candidate for once. Only to run into the biggest pandemic in a century.

Exactly the kind of partisan chipping away at the structure of the system that the likes of Santa say is not going to happen, then dismiss as irrelevant when it does. But these things add up.
When Trump loses expect a massive purge of disloyal civil servants between election and inauguration, followed by the mass seeding of unqualified and politicised appointees throughout the service. Partly as revenge against the 'disloyal', and partly an attempt to hobble the next president.

You will note that after quickly forcing through his right-wing theocratic judge to the Supreme Court, Mitch has adjourned the Senate until after the election. So no coronavirus relief until afterwards.
Obviously he has his priorities, and they don't include the American people. So it will be up to the Democrats to try and help instead. And that, rather than fixing the system Trump has been breaking, will be their priority.
In the meantime, the Republicans will be sniping from the sidelines about Democrat spending damaging the country. They will again pretend to care about the deficit and the debt. When Trump's tax cuts to the middle class expire in 2022 they will pretend that it's the fault of the Democrats. Not because it's true - these people have clearly demonstrated their character in that regard - but because they know they will have two years of lying and attacking the incumbents during a period that would be incredibly difficult for any ruling party to deal with.
They will absolve themselves of the blame for all of it and try and get voters to believe that the longer term economic and social impacts are the fault of the people who inherited them, not the people who created them. And that 2-year campaign of lies is almost certain to win back the Senate, allowing the minority party to once again hobble the majority.

As Biden lied brazenly during the last debate - on fracking - why should anyone take his word when he denies corruption, taking money from foreign business interests/govts, knowledge of Hunter's business dealings, and Hunter's individual criminal behaviour and sexual depravity?
Biden is a proven liar as recently as last week.

Re: POTUS-DONALD TRUMP-and U.S. Politics catch-all
Just finished reading the John Bolton's book "the room where it happened" and in his conclusion, he wrote that he believed that the Dems did a terrible job with the impeachment, unworthy of the high constitutional responsibility vested in the House and that, had they been driven by going to the bottom of things rather than by their political agenda, they would have uncovered much more about Trump and would likely have moved the lines at the Senate.
He adds that elections are the greatest check and balance for the Executive and, given how often it is short term political considerations that have prevented Trump from doing stupid thing (fear of medias backlash and voters reaction), he is very worried that Trump will be uncontrollable if he gets reelected. But in the end, he says, the Dems may like his policies (previously in the book he said that Kushner has a Democrat agenda for foreign policies).
