but I am concerned, though, as it does continue to degrade our society and government.

The only way it doesn’t is doing something like Lord Ratner said above…can’t drag them to court, but Trump sure as shit can declassify everything and release it to the world. That would be even better than any trials that hypothetically could have happened. If the dark world of that corrupt shitshow family (and others like them) are massively exposed, and not just on obscure sites, it would likely wake up even more people to the absolute lie they’ve bought.

Where do I send the check for my blanket pardon?

PS, I think Senile Joe is about to strap on a leather helmet and a drool bucket let alone remember what he said a while back, but step-momma Jill remembers and she still needs her boy to reignite the family biz.

Lots of talk about Rudolph Giuliani demanding $1-2M to work a pardon through Trump (without Donald's knowledge), during his first term. 

[disgruntledemployee]

Lot of talk about Shadow President Musk, which I'm sure is meant to piss off Trump to over react.

PS.  Why does Trump want to raise the debt ceiling?  I thought he was mandated to bring the budget back into balance.

He’s not a conservative, so doubt he cares about it. He has a lot of big business whisper in his ear right now, so whatever they want is what sounds good to him this week. Higher debt ceiling, maybe the highest debt ceiling. People are talking about it. They say it.

[Negatory]

This forum is about to eat up right wing propaganda stating the government shutdown is the Dem’s fault. Even though it’s a Republican controlled House that didn’t pass a budget bill.

Guess it would probably be too embarrassing to admit that President Musk’s tweets to tell republicans to not pass any bills had more impact than First Lady Trump.

Saying “President Musk” just further embarrasses the fact that Biden is the president…but that being said, I’ll take Musk on the Trump team any day!

It’s on the dems AND the willing GOP participants of the establishment (McConnell, Crenshaw, etc.) The people are sick of all the bullshit pork the aforementioned group shoves in bills - so yeah it is their fault. I will also be happy to see the gov shutdown. We’re fiscally out of control more than anytime in history - it has to stop.

It costs a lot of money to deport the browns.

Shut it down...everytime there has been a shutdown they blame the GOP and everytime the GOP does better in the mid-terms.  And before you through all the GOP and Trump Tripe out there...where is the current freaking President?  Isn't he supposed to lead?

 

 

[Smokin]

The House just passed the bill with more than the 2/3rd vote, so if there is a shutdown, then it is 100% on the Dems.  They pulled the debt ceiling increase/removal, which was the worst part.  Still spending way too much, but only the bill is 10% of the original length, which is progress.

I would still rather have seen the shutdown and a massive spending cut as the requirement to open the government back up.  We're spending money we don't have like a SNACKO who put everything on black in Vegas and is now borrowing money trying to double up to catch up.

I’ve come to expect that the only people who will have serious issues with the American leadership the next four years (just like 2017-2021) will be our adversaries like China, Russia, Iran, terrorist groups like ISIS, transgenders, illegal immigrants, far left lunatics like Antifa and Black Lives Matter, and decrypt democratic leadership in failing states like California and New York.

Not excusing Biden admin, just predicting an even better/worse clown show.

Tell us five new policy changes that Trump has said he will implement that you believe will make things worse.

[brabus]

Guess it depends on what disgruntled means by clown show. If he simply means theatrics (like making Canada the 51st state), then yeah, trump is full of stuff like that. If he means hypocritical theatrics from congress, then also yes, there will be plenty of that. If he means executive level performance on par or worse than the historic disaster of the Biden admin, then I believe he is completely off his rocker and incapable of self-derived rational thought.

Yes to Theatrics.  Like the bootlickers are backstabbing each other.  Loomer and Bannon going after battery-boy Musk.  Musk writing opinion that a labeled extremist entity, Alternative for GE, is the solution to issues in Germany. 

Trump has been mostly quiet.  Maybe he's finally figured it out.  As for executive level action, so far I have him following Musk's lead on funding the govt asshattery (Congressional theatrics).  Will Trump be his own man or be manipulated by the likes of Musk?

Once he takes power, we'll have more events to banter.

Happy Holidays, may Oregon stomp OH St (although I'm Big 10), and God bless the Green Bay Packers.

I disagree with most of this rambling, but I had to downvote for the last 6 words. disgusting...

 

Go Lions.

I like the Lions, but only if they get past The Pack.  Dan the Man is ballsy.  Respect.

PS, 3 beers in among the relatives had a say in the previous rambling.

While I don't enjoy some of the theatrics, at times they do serve a purpose.  Most of the bluster is to force negotiation and in the case of Canada it kinda worked.  Interestingly Canada was already feeling the immigration pain and has tightened the requirements for immigration to their country drastically.  As Trump pointed out there has been a huge spike in people coming across the northern border and a threatened 25% tariff forced Trudeau to get on a place and fly to Mar A Lago.  And if you think it is wrong to punk the future Canadian governor, good look at some of the things he said about Trump in the past.

His comments has the same impact with Mexico, since the election they have suddenly detained 500,000 immigrants heading for the U.S. border.

Right or wrong, it worked with NATO in the past and while I don't favor walking away from that alliance, a great number of the members were delinquent or not meeting their obligations.

This is the entire foundation of geopolitics today. 

 

The [long-standing system] is broken so let's get rid of it.

You can't say that about [long-standing system]!  Sure it needs some adjustments to work again but it's vital to global stability.

Ok fine, if we're going to keep it then let's make those adjustments to fix it.

No. It will take years to make these changes.

Fine, then we're cancelling [lopsided trade arrangement that favors an ally at the expense of America].

Wait no, we're fixing it right now! See?! Why are you punishing us by trading with our country the way we've traded with you for decades?!
