The problem with the left is that you desperately want to think and hear that America is regretting its decision to elect Trump.
You can wish for that all you like, but it’s not going to change the fact that Trump is in office and making the decisions, and there are millions upon millions of very happy Americans.

Of course. Because they haven’t got a clue. Yet

I mean, Zelenskyy does have a £35m villa in Florida but I’m sure it’s coincidence

No he doesn’t. That is a lie.

I’m not a huge Trump fan but as a GC woman I’m very glad about his views on only two sexes.
Hopefully that will filter over here as most things do.

Just as a women how can you possibly see anything positive in the election of a man with over thirty different woman accusing him of sexual assault and misconduct? A man who shared prostituties with Epstein. Grabs women by the pussy

He's atttwcking transgender people not to support women but because he know it plays well to his voting demographic. He's also enabling states to restrict and impede women's reproductive rights

Be careful. If you lay down with dogs you're gonna catch fleas.

I presume you're joking and you can't honestly be as stupid as to believe this crap ?

Hobbesmanc · 19/02/2025 21:46

@hamstersarse you need to stop posting such inflammatory fake news. It's obvious that you're either a shitstirrer or a Russian bot. Zelenskyy hasn't got a 35 million dollar Florida villa. Or bought Highgrove. Or an Italian island. Just fake shit. Embarrassing

There will be millions of dead Americans soon enough once him and his psycho henchman has gutted the US and stolen all your money.

Good luck suckers.

Congratulations Yuri! Papa Putin will bestow two potatoes today for your fine work in spreading Russian lies!

JaneAustensKitty · 19/02/2025 21:55

Yes, I’d read it was a work of fiction. Zelenskyy wouldn’t abandon the Ukraine 🇺🇦. He’s proud to lead his country and rightly so.

I’d imagine that the US would be only one above Russia if he ever planned to leave his homeland.

PandoraSox · 19/02/2025 21:58

The Florida mansion was a new one to me! I must have missed that particular fabrication.

It is incredible the shite people will fall for if it aligns with their views.

@lentilbake16 I am GC but he is only this way so he can 'put women in their place' (usually a place of disadvantage).
On a broader levels, there are many more critical issues such as Ukraine and Gaza.
Let''s take ourselves back to the 80s (because those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it):

  • The Northern Ireland conflict is Russia vs Ukraine. Trump chooses to speak to Sinn Fein (Russia) and exclude the UK (Ukraine)
  • The Gaza conflict is the Falklands - Argentina vs UK. Trump thinks the Falklands will be a great place to set up a penguin viewing business and negotiates with Argentina on this basis. The UK are not invited to the table
Both of these are imperfect analogies due to power imbalances but can be considered by people in the UK to bring it home.

This is one of the most bananas thing I’ve ever read!! Sinn Fein = Russia?? When did Sinn Fein ever attempt to colonise Britain by invasion? Britain colonised Ireland!! In this analogy Britain is Russia and the Irish are the Ukrainians - but it’s not comparable at all! Likewise for your Falklands comparison

I wonder if the left's greatest failure is in understanding the right. The right understand the left. The left don't understand the right. That's a strategic disadvantage

I would describe myself as left and agree that the left's failure is in applying left ideology when dealing with far right voters.

There needs to be a middle ground, based on pragmatic, not populist politics. In my mind there is only one way to achieve this - sadly it will never happen - this is to cap political donations and make truth in political advertising the law.

True democracy has been decimated by the funding of political parties by big business and the permission we collectively endorsed for candidates to lie their way into office. We are all so blinded by the narrative that we want to hear (cognitive bias) that we are all failing to see that all of these funded parties, built on lies are just a front to benefit their financial backers. Trump is nothing. He is a puppet as was Biden.

So I think nothing about Trump, other than he is a stooge - always was, always has been. He speaks the language of ordinary people - so they listen to his sound bite politics as it gives them a sense that they are in control.

I am terrified of what our children are inheriting. The Hunger Games is alive and well and nobody wants to do anything about it.

He seems more interested in trying to be a celebrity. Appearing on magazine covers and turning up to music award shows. Not to mention turning up to serious meetings dressed in camo army gear.

He's raking in billions after billions and he's fully aware that if the war stops then the money stops.

This is such a gross misrepresentation.

Lordy, people are truly shameful.

The man’s country was invaded and citizens displaced or killed.

Your comments are disgusting.

EasternStandard · 19/02/2025 22:09

There will be millions of dead Americans soon

People really up the ante on these threads. No wonder US voters do the same

EasternStandard · 19/02/2025 22:11

Americans are beginning to regret their decision and they are only a few weeks in.

Where did you see this?

Donttellempike · 19/02/2025 22:11

Hamletscigar · 19/02/2025 20:40

Absolutely thrilled. Trump has far exceeded my expectations. I’m so glad we can say good bye to the cruel policies of the left that medically castrated children; that allowed boys to cheat and’s win scholarships that girls should have obtained; that housed male rapists in female prisons and that used obfuscation instead of telling the truth

aye. Right so 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Thank you though for proving the point of Trump supporters and a lack of critical thinking.

EasternStandard · 19/02/2025 22:14

Ditto your meaningless 'millions dead' line @Donttellempike

Why would there be? What's the point if going on like that anyway.

It won't help you, as they'll just say good luck pay for yourself.

This thread is a microcosm that demonstrates my point.

People believe what they want to believe and hear what they want to hear. Some of the statements on this thread are wild - literally based on zero percent of critical thought.

We are all doomed because humans ceased thinking critically at some point.

I think he has got a point. The US has poured money into Ukraine with no security on that money, Europe has put in less and has security on the money.

If I was from the US, I would be happy but given I live in Europe I will now have to suck up what the Europeans should have been doing all along...if they really support Ukraine.

It is a true thing to say by Trump, that WHERE have the peace talks been so far from Europe?

where are the figures for this? As far as I can find, Europe have provided around double the aid US have provided, not forgetting the US aid has largely been returned to the pockets of US companies who are providing the weapons.

WookieMama · 19/02/2025 22:21

we really do seem to live in a post truth world, it’s utterly depressing and terrifying when you think too long :(
