Why hasn't a Grassy Knoll incident happened?

Because he's very very careful in his movements. At this point it seems he rarely goes anywhere other than WarALardo or other highly protected places.

I was stunned to see that pic of him and lil Marco at the WWE. Although I suspect that security was absolutely nuts and chances are the crowd at a WWE event is probably pretty MAGA/Conservative heavy.

Oh, I just heard a blurb that he is either trying or is going to try to 'take over' 3 public golf courses in DC. He's already terminated the leases.

According to the Orange one, the UK and other countries are sending minesweepers

I don't think anyone here condones what you are suggesting. I know I don't.

Am I suggesting? I'm wondering why in a country full of crazy, gun toting nutjobs that no-one has been on target.

Interested in this thread?

I don’t think they would. Although I am on the fence about the U.K. Trump started this unholy mess. It’s up to him to get out of it. If he wants to poke the big Chinese bear with a big stick, that’s on him too. Why would anyone else want to get themselves caught up in that?

And just as the US arms makers need these rare earths. That China basically control at the moment.

Were it to happen and the perpetrator caught, I would want them to be dealt with under the law like anybody else. If that means a murder trial and conviction then so be it. You don't get to make your own laws.

That said, for the squeamish, remember that the putative victim in the scenario actively incited a riot which cost lives and had it succeeded would have seen a lot of heads on spikes. So maybe reserve your pity.

It's a good question.

Especially as so many innocent schoolchildren have been murdered under the excuse that the second amendment is to protect against tyranny.

Right now it looks like the second amendment is really about penis extensions for insecure men who are worried about their sexuality and over compensate wildly/

If Trump turned up to an impeachment hearing waving the nuclear football, dressed in drag and demanded to be called Tallulah, the GOP would still vote against impeachment

Judging by the fact he was voted in for a second term, you're probably right.

Not pity. Not for him. I don't think it's right.

And there is the practical side. He should finish in total disgrace. Not in a blaze of glory to become Saint Trump to the heavily armed MAGA. Remember what it is Bannon wants.

They will completely pipeline the oil overland.

Or even underground, if cost doesn't matter. It will be boom time for directional drillers worldwide.

We return to the allied strategy for WW2, and it's reasons.

Iran need the strait to ship their oil

What countries is Iran shipping its oil to?

He will be worshipped alongside Saint Charlie of Kirk, Trump will be robed in gold.

And no matter who pulls the trigger, it will be blamed on "the left" or "Muslims". "radical" will be dropped. Meal team 6 might just turn it into a bloodbath. It's their wet dream.

Because those crazy gun toting nut jobs are by and large Trump supporters.

And?

I think the implication is "what would China do ?"

Well, I would answer that by suggesting it would be instructive to think what China would not do. And starting a war it cannot win and cannot end is probably high up on that list.

You could then add "building an international consensus and working with interested parties" to that list.

That's 2 so far.

Maybe add "not kill innocent schoolchildren and then lie about it" - although I admit they are getting harder to achieve now.

And not last, but an honourable mention for laying out a clear set of aims so that all invited can work towards them.

But what do I know ?

Wipeywipey · 12/04/2026 16:59

I don't know if America would just jump up with guns if China levelled a DF-31/ DF-41/DF-5 at Florida or Texas...Mar-A-Largo perhaps...

China more likely. They copied them.

No sorry. I mean they home developed their own better ones.

Yeah, about those.

The french flogged theirs (for scrap ?) and the UK buried them alongside the tunnel.

Surely we already know who did it. Barack Hussein Obama, with the help of Sleepy Joe Biden.
