US Politics

People still think Trump is serious about making Canada the 51st state 🤣 there really is no hope for them anymore.

Seems like some outrage over something or other is required constantly.
I have bigger outrages on my doorstep but people are too blinkered to realise that the Trump constant news, the Palestine constant news and the Ukraine constant news are only highlighted to deflect from things like the cost of living, housing shortage, health service, crime and general state of their own country.

Wait for the moaning in a year when the lefty manifesto really kicks in. Many will be having a bit of regret and wishing it was actually a thing .

The way the US economy is going under Trump it’ll be Americans wanting to be part of Canada 🤣.

I thought you didn’t understand anything I wrote. Incoherent I think you said.
Your a fibber danh and I’m beginning to believe my post about you deflecting 🤔

Go to Canada and check out the cost of living and taxation for yourself. Canadians have a long history of buying in the US for a far cheaper price. Last I was there, a couple of days shopping was over 100 dollars. It would be about twenty or thirty here. Funny how much this is happening everywhere and we're all just sucking it up and blaming Trump. He's the one making the profits is he?

What people actually think is that the President of the USA ought to be a serious politician and leader. Someone whose words mean what they say. Someone who can be trusted and whose word is his bond.

I presume you haven't followed US politics that closely for the last century or so?

So if it's just Trump having a laugh, do you see that as responsible behaviour from the POTUS?

Trump couldn't give a toss about responsibility it seems. Just wait until the full repercussions of his economic meddling start to hit the fan.

He appears to on this forum. Although I strongly suspect they’re having their doubts now.

I think people may have forgotten who the alternative was. I can't imagine that being any better. But I can't say for absolute sure.

Americans aren't convinced.

Democratic Party hits new polling low, while its voters want to fight Trump harder

Unlike in Trump’s first term, Democratic voters say 2-to-1 they want party leaders to fight rather than compromise, even at the risk of not getting things done, per the NBC News poll.

Harris may have killed the Democratic permanently. Biden did enough damage as it was. The two together were awful - like a marmite and cabbage flavoured slush puppy.

They will be. Even the moronic MAGAs when it starts hitting their wallets.

There's about as much chance of MAGA hat wearing people with car stickers changing, as there is the social justice warrior "queers for Palestine" changing. It's a religion to them. Have you seen the price of the hats? I'd buy one for comedy value. But not at that price

I got one from Amazon for a tenner. Not the best quality but does the job.

It's gone beyond the political and its a tribal identity on both sides now.

I have to be honest, because of the US system, short of them being invaded by Mexican cartels or Yellowstone blowing up I don't see anything bringing them back together.

In fact the Democrats would probably rather side with invading Mexican drug gangs than MAGA.

It is amazing really. Not that long ago there was hardly any difference at all between the Republicans and the Democrats.
