Who are they kidding? It's Oil, Oil, Oil, baby - Trump Thread #152

[Spandauer]

Back on US soil, an American citizen in a peaceful neighbourhood is gunned down by masked agents sent there to make people afraid.

Despicable, wretched people lying, lying, lying - all day, every day, about everything.

Ha ha ha... spooky.

In a small group chat I am in ( different time zone), I suggested it is about time for the lizard people masonic illuminati to intervene, and have a fault develop in Trumps plane. I joke about the illuminati of course, but I seriously was thinking that the Generals etc must be wanting a rest for a while.

And.. IT HAPPENED :-)

(1) Live updates: Trump’s Greenland threats, Air Force One returns to US shortly after takeoff for Davos | CNN Politics

I've been watching that too. I was rather hoping the 'electrical fault' was a cover-up for a medical emergency. Unfortunately AF1 is on its way again now.

I have not seen anything about his Qatar Jumbo recently. Maybe he needs the VZ oil money to bling it up a bit. That might explain the Qatar bank stuff :-)

What I really want to know is—where is Mike Pence? Why hasn’t he said anything public in the past 3 weeks? What is he thinking? Does he regret the part he played from 2016, setting off this chain of events?

And Mitch McConnell? Does he regret not pushing the Congressional impeachment through the Senate? Does he regret the Senate not banning Trump from ever holding public office again? Or is he too far gone with dementia himself to have any clue what is going on?

And everyone who mocked Biden’s age, whilst at the same time voted in Trump as the oldest president in US history. Do they now see that Trump is out-Bidening Biden?

So many questions….

If Trump speaks at Davos, he'll make a filibuster speech 2 hours long so that no one else gets a word in.

If we can't understand in English what he's blethering on about, I pity the poor transalators trying to create a coherent sentence in French or Italian

Wonder if he’ll have his blatantly racist visual aids for this speech.

In case the phone isn't clear, the torches read NO KINGS

See from that link that another warmonger, Netanyahu, has joined the board of peace.

This is a little early but I suspect once the 🍊💩 arrives in Davos we'll be needing a new thread and I may miss it.

So in anticipation of another batshit move and more incendiary drivel utterances by Desperate Don, here's one to jump on when the time comes.

Thanks @Spandauer I was thinking that yesterday, if today at Davos is anything like yesterday we might need a whole thread!
I'm listening to Mark Carney's talk. Utterly brilliant. I can't help thinking today is going to be some kind of crunch. Trumpy has no boundaries left at all, no control over what he says. Carney et al are the audience today and they finally seem to have some kind of a handle on what they're dealing with.
Will they stand up to him now, in public, on the world stage, as it were? Will he cope? What will he say? Will he meltdown? Will he get dragged off stage frothing at the mouth?

Or am I just feeling optimistic? 😂

🤞 grown ups win today🤞

I know the GOP are scared of Trump and rely on him bringing in the votes but how many of them can seriously watch the rambling speech and think "yep this is an intelligent man in full control of his faculties"

Yes, they're definitely in the zone of dealing with the POTUS they have, rather than the POTUS they'd like to have.

I had to laugh at Bessant yesterday: "Oooh noooo, don't give us CONSEQUENCES."

Gavin Newsom sound bite about how Americans are reacting to European attempts to maintain diplomacy and enticements to Trump this morning.

"It's pathetic. Don't you understand, it's a T Rex. It either mates with you or it kills you"

So far the "Board of Peace" is Trump, Orban, Lukaschenko and Netanyahu.

Suggestions have been made that the Netherlands should join and invite them for a visit to The Hague

"They" being Carney et al, not the GOP. Many of whose heads are firmly in the sand.

It's good that Newsom is saying out loud what Trump is... and it's also clear Carney doesn't need telling.

The best techniques for leading the giant toddler along may be another matter.

on a lighter note: who is cooler: Macron with sunglasses or Scholz with eye patch

that's what my teens discuss

Pffftz! Macron hands down, surely! 😎

Just watched Mark Carney. He wins every day for me. Now there’s a man!

from Guardian live reporting:

...Trump is likely to be three hours late, Scott Bessent suggest, following the problem with Air Force One.
The Treasury secretary adds that he hasn’t seen the updated schedule yet, following the president’s move to a replacement plane.
Trump was due to give his special address at 2.30pm Davos time, or 1.30pm UK – that hasn’t yet changed on the programme…

Ooooooh boy. More or Less on Greenland and they've enlisted Map Men

Oh well. Maybe we can just his slot (is that wishful thinking?)

Radio this morning said Trump has been revealing what various heads of state have been grovelling to him on WhatsApp.

Can't see any examples online

There were texts from Rutte (Netherlands) i think calling him "my dear". This is a step down from the NATO summit last year when Rutte.called him "daddy".
Apart from that I know he leaked the French texts but they didn't even seem that grovelling to me.
