USA Political Discussion Thread 2025

[marsvolta]

looks like Trump will come up with some peace deal just between the US and Russian... and no one in Europe or the Ukraine will even be listening.

EU eyes €200B secret weapon as Trump dominates Ukraine peace talks

Can Europe replace the US in Ukraine?

EU offers its own ‘win-win’ minerals deal to Ukraine

this is just going to be another embarrassment for "the king of deal making". and especially aggravating for his US military industrial backers as the EU ramps up to profit from Russian money spent in their countries on arms manufacturing.

 

[marsvolta]

Trump has not been liking the questions he gets asked...

White House seizes control of press pool, will decide which outlets cover events with president

 

[marsvolta]

not really sure what the game plan is here... felon president just ignores the law, orders his Justice Department to ignore the judiciary. in some scramble to slash and burn to try and cut costs so that his corporate tax breaks can make it through the House.

why doesn't he just declare tax rates on his own? and order the IRS to implement...

oh right... there IS NO PLAN! hahaha!

 

[UhOh]

Concepts of a plan

 

[Crookedmember]

So, Trump is now saying he wants to revive Keystone XL...after saying the US doesn't need our oil.

In other news, wtf is up with his hand?

 

[westwoody]

Musk is cutting departments and staff who were investigating him and his companies.
The corruption is so blatant only a lunatic could defend Trump and his clique.

Patel is an online scammer who made millions selling bogus medicine - and now he's running the FBI!

 

[westwoody]

wtf is up with his hand?

It's been like that since last summer, many have noticed it.
It must be bad because tweets about it often get deleted by "freedom of speech" Musk.
Is there an injectable form of Adderall? Sometimes he looks like he's on meds when he slurs his speech and babbles incoherently, then other times he seems normal.

Trump frees his fellow sexual predators Tate and Tate.
Rapists gotta stick together eh.

What do I think after watching that shit show in the Oval office this morning you ask?

" UN - FUCKIN' - BELEIVABLE "

I said it before and ill say it again . The world would have been a lot better off if Trump won in 2020.
Drink your good scotch now .

well you may be right... Trump's first term was constrained by a Republican party with actually intelligent executive administration picks (that were constantly fired by Trump anyways). Trump has been planning this second run at it where he has complete idiotic control for some time.

if would have been a lot better for the US if that bullet had been an inch to the right.

i'm not so worried about the rest of the world. the US is relinquishing control and other democracies, the EU in particularly will now have a chance (albeit forced) to flex its muscles. the EU has the third highest GDP on earth.

I've decided not to comment about what's going on the other side after I mistakenly predicted and insisted that KHaris was going to win. I told myself that perhaps Americans see something that we Canadian can't. But what happened this morning is just too much that I can't hold my piece. Why is America so afraid of Putin??? Isn't it obvious that Russia is nothing. They say its a superpower. Its not. If they were this war would have been over in a matter of days. Can't they see that? Putin even needed North Korea's help. Of all his allies, North K? WTF? How did that turn out? He could have ask Belarus or Serbia etc. Trump obviously is working for Putin. Sorry for me to say this but Americans are so blind and ignorant and they should be embarrassed and ashamed of themself for putting this Putin puppet back as their president. Yes, Trump is Putin's puppet 100%. Thats what Putin does and he did this with USA with flying colours. He even got Musk into it. With what happened this morning, Putin must be rolling on the floor laughing his ass out. Canada, EU and other free loving countries should all unit in support of Ukraine.

looks like the whole plan was to get Zelensky in a room and bully him into signing something just takes advantage of Ukraine.... as i suggested, Trump is freaking out that Europe is getting prepared to offer a better "deal" that will additionally empower the EU military industrial complex using Russian money.

I agree 100%

The whole world is watching - and he doesn't give a shit!

Vance and trump ganging up and engaging in a debate a guy alone who is not fluent enough in English to really convey is thoughts.

Vance stating that Ukraine needs conscription to supply their army with the man power required.... priceless when the idiot doesn't know or does not have the knowledge that the US needed to do the same to fight the Vietnam war ( population in the north below 10 million) ...maybe just the lack of shame allows him to say ridiculous things .
