US Politics

And yet he still won. Sounds like your complaints should be directed toward the Democrats for managing to lose.
I don’t have any complaints. Not my place to complain. It’s for the Americans to decide if everything worked as it should, whether anything was interfered with etc. They have strong systems and oversight to ensure that and nothing untoward has been suggested yet.

Analysing exactly what happened and why will take time. Expressing opinions on the wisdom of it doesn’t.
 
The staggering level of indoctrination among some of these left wing loons is truly disturbing.
They are so blinkered that some of them genuinely cannot understand why Trump won. They cannot see that their idealistic mumbo jumbo doesn't wash in the real world.
What's worse is that some are in positions of authority. They are being used and they don't know it.
 
The first bit of good news seems to be the appointment of Susie Wiles as Chief of Staff. I know nothing about her other than that I have read this morning but from that she appears to be an experienced, grounded and calm individual. Not the type of wild sycophant that have been around him in the past.

Let’s hope she maintains the hold on him that she appears to have now, keeps the more extreme nutcases at a distance and allows matters of State to proceed quietly.

We can but hope than someone like her can temper his worst instincts.

Election interference again.
More voters chose Trump than Harris - apart from the east and west coasts almost exclusively. Still, this will be Trump's last presidency and at his age there has to be some doubt about whether he'll see out the full term anyway. J. D. Vance? This thread could run for a while.
 
There is plenty of time to prepare (or take evasive action) when there is a new president.

Inauguration is not until January 20th 2025.

😎
Surely this gives Netanyahu a free hand for a couple of months. Thought you might want Trump in quicker.
Does nobody think Biden should be removed? Clearly not fit - even according to his own party.
Sometimes conventions should be changed.
 
In all his years of being on here the only one I can remember him getting right was that Biden would withdraw......even though in reality it was a coup under threat.

If you could bet on the opposite of what he predicts you'd probably be quite a wealthy man.
At least he’s consistent. He is wrong more often than Willo predicts a Palace defeat and that’s going some.

My favourite one most recently was questioning whether Tommy Robinson had actually returned to the UK because he stated that ‘No-one had actually reported seeing him’.

It was then pointed out that it had been filmed live on the Sunday evening two days prior. In Full 4k HD!!! Tommy Robinson returning to the UK at Luton Airport, getting off the plane, going through Customs, walking though arrivals, posted on the internet, seen by hundreds of thousands AND it had been reported on the News. It is rare to find someone so out of touch but there we go.

We know he's left because he's never right.
 
The adults are back in charge now and will be taken seriously. Leaders across the world are getting thier act together now. And already talk of Peace between Russia and Ukraine. China wont be invading taiwan anytime soon. The war between Israel and the terrorists will be over soon and we will have world peace again very soon. He has a brilliant team behind him.

It terms of the election those of us who have switched off MSM the result has come at no shock. The only worry was the cheating. Trump was well prepared for it this time.

The main concern now is to Protect Trump at all costs and ensure he makes it to January and beyond.

Let's all hope that this all comes to past.

Protecting Trump and getting him to office is the main key.....I don't trust the existing establishment at all. There are a lot of powerful people in the agencies with a lot to lose.
 
I've just got back from the States and saw the Democrat meltdown first hand. On their news channels they were very quick to start pointing the finger of blame at anyone and everyone from Biden to the electorate (of course) but only a couple of their commentators appeared to have "got" what had happened. The panel was open mouthed when a young female panellist, when asked what she thought the Democrats needed to do to earn back their lost votes, simply answered "Drop Progressivism".

Something I found really interesting though was that they seemed to agree that the bussing of migrants to Democrat led areas that had no real experience of what those near the border were living with was a game changer as it suddenly brought the problem, literally, to their doorstep. It appears they didn't know how to handle it and it very quickly became a problem shared.

Wouldn't it be a good strategy to follow here? Imagine the response in places like, say, Cornwall, or Brighton and Hove.

I’m not sure Brighton is the best example 😂 but wholeheartedly agree with your point

The Left are just purely in transmit mode. Collectively lacking the mental bandwidth to comprehend that others disagree with them. And being a saddo, I have been reading and listening to people trying to comprehend what happened for far too long.

Leaving me to conclude, when all is said and done, that the Progressive-Left are just s**t-c**ts. And as such anybody with even a modicum of common sense, refuses to have anything to do with them anymore. Loathsome Mutants to a they/them.

Saltcoats? A bit rough on the good people of Ayrshire.

I didn’t and don’t suggest there was election interference. Only that there are systems in place that can tell if there was, which should be trusted.

I thought Trump looked very unwell last week. His colour looked extremely unnatural, even more than usual, and his words were unclear and repetitive. Biden became unsteady but the eyes always look alert. I wonder how long before the same calls for Trump to stand aside due to his age that were aimed at Biden begin? If they don’t then we know it wasn’t age, but politics, that scuppered Biden.

If anything could make me hope for Trump to see out his term it’s the thought that Vance would follow him. It’s probably why he chose him. As a safety net against assassination.

Not necessarily. Age affects everyone differently - Warren Buffet is 94 and is still sharp whereas others start to decline much earlier. That being said I still maintain the President should be under 70.
