There's no such thing as bad publicity.

Do you or game of phones live in the US? If not, how can you be so adamant that you are so right.

And even if you are right, which you’re not, it doesn’t matter. The public have voted. And they think you are wrong.

I do & you’re wrong. Out of 161 + million registered voters, 77 million voted for him, 75 million for Harris. So he had 1.5% more votes than Harris, all based on his campaign lies. Big whoop! 🙄 Also, living in a red state i can’t avoid mingling with trump voters and I can report quite a few are horrified by musk’s involvement (& trump’s admission he will not lower the price of groceries), and wish they had just stayed home instead of voting for trump.

It's only for 4 years and then he'll be gone forever. It'll be fine.

crumblingschools · 20/01/2025 00:42

If wages go up prices will go up

LuckyPeonies · 20/01/2025 00:46

@devastatedagain i am not so sure about that. He is already making noises that, as he was ‘cheated out of the presidency in 2020’, he should have the right to run again. With a corrupt scotus in his pocket and his hand-picked loyalists in the justice system, we may never get rid of that awful crime family.

timetodecide2345 · 20/01/2025 00:46

@LuckyPeonies I'm glad they are horrified. I hope their terror consumes them!

Fraaances · 20/01/2025 00:46

I genuinely think he’s been reading Hitler’s playbook:- find scapegoats, say stupid shit, talk of expanding the Vaterland. He’s utterly mad, and so are his people.

I find it astounding and more shocking that at this point in time after his last 4 year reign of terror and everything that's in the news and on social media that anyone can be shocked about Trump.

I am shocked people still come here to moan about Trump. What a waste of time!

I know nothing about politics, but his rhetoric was shocking. Those videos about illegal immigrants, the ludicrous claims he made… I’m in disbelief that this is happening.

I just don't get how he's President again.
Has he not been convicted of a crime?

The country depends on undocumented immigrants for labour. What will happen if they are all deported?

Inflation.

BettyBardMacDonald · 20/01/2025 00:21

Ignorant, bigoted, gullible, rudderless people, that is.

There are millions and millions of those type of people in every country, the US is no different to anywhere else.

dottiehens · 20/01/2025 01:10

There are many ways to immigrate legally into the US. There are also programs for refugees and Asylum seekers. However, this is not about that. This is about the bad apples that Biden and Kamala invited and came in large numbers. Gangs like “Tren de Aragua” He was given a mandate due to the incompetence of Biden and Kamala and their insane progressive in asteroids agenda.

As Kelly Osbourne famously said “If you kick every Latino out of this country, then who is going to be cleaning your toilet, Donald Trump?

Maybe his immigrant wife could do it, @Anniedash?

What's he wanging on about today? Was it in sentences?

He's too important & mighty to bother with things like sentances!
He just fires out words and the audience has to do the work of finding the meaning.

LuckyPeonies · 20/01/2025 01:22

@dottiehens bad apples, liars, grifters, billionaires, religious zealots, criminals, and absolute corruption have just been installed in the White House. They will not fix anything, they just want the power to reshape the US for their own benefit.

Have you just landed from Mars OP. What exactly have you seen that is so shocking.

And in any case what is so shocking about wanting to secure your country’s borders? 8 million illegal migrants have come into the US on Biden’s watch. That is more shocking than anything Trump says.

It’s not a novel idea. Your reaction is giving ‘faux rage’.

Before too long, there will be huge mass migration due to climate change, making many areas of the world uninhabitable. Trump is only interested in himself and in making money; literally nothing else. It's incredible that people are stupid enough to suck it up and wear the farcical MAGA hats.

@timetodecide2345 Did you feel that you were living under a reign of terror during his first administration?

He'll be more emboldened this time round. He got away with insurrection. He's already saying that TikTok will be back - i.e. fuck the supreme court, he's the king.

RogueFemale · 20/01/2025 01:43

And that's the problem with the US presidential system. The president has the authority of a king, in what is supposed to be a democracy.

What a complete and utter crock of shit. Get away from the Rupert Murdoch lying propaganda.

I don't believe for one moment we would have been stupid enough to have voted in a sex offender.

But America appears to hate women.

InternationalColossus · 20/01/2025 02:00

Even though he’s eventually going to age out, I’m troubled by the prospect of his MAGA legacy — someone like Vance running for president and winning in 2028.
