Tweets...You see even though he did none of those things, he sends mean tweets, so that means he really really wants to, even though he had 4 years to do so and didn't.  But it's about what he said, not about what he did

And he did call Rosie O’Donnell fat.  Eerily Hitler like.

I just saw some article from USA Today where the writer called Nick Bosa a coward because he didnt want to expand on it when a reporter asked after the game.  

Lol.  You cant make it up.

There is an eerie absence of our more liberal posters poking fun as the correlations to Hitler, as they have done in the past.

That nazi rally at MSG was off the charts awesome. Packed house full of fellow nazis and outside another 70k of high energy nazis. All my favorite nazis were there, RFK, Jr., Tucker,  Tulsi, Mary Millben (the singer of the national anthem). Just an overall great event for us Trump following nazis.   😁

I am going out on a limb here.......I predict.....in the next Presidential election, the Democrats will call the Republican candidate a fascist and a doctorial person.....   I predict this since they have done it to nearly every single one in the past 60 years or so.... and look at all the people who just eat it up.....

@Frozenbeernuts Still waiting for the evidence of Democrats cheating in election.

There's way too much of it spread out all over because the mainstream media wouldn't cover it. I'm not hunting it all down for you.

It's funny, I was thinking about it this weekend... all of this pablum about Trump taking over the country, from the MSDNC that the Leftie simps like @TrailGuy lap up -- think about who is in his coalition.  Musk, RFK, Gabbard.  What do they have in common?  A desire to improve the system, yes.  But also and to my point:  They don't need Trump.  Musk is not some sycophant looking to keep his government gig.  Nor RFK, nor Gabbard.  They are all fine without Trump.  They aren't going abandon their principals and help Trump to try to coup the nation.

I semi get your concept.  But what if, they all only want to "Improve the system" to their own benefit ?  And deep down they don't really give a F about any of us...

If Trump wanted to create a coup of some kind (which I don't think he does) you would still need people on your side. 

If someone said you could be given a political position and be basically unchecked- which Trump has basically said- you can understand why people would be drawn to that. They may not need Trump but to be the head of the stuff RFK wants to be- Trump is the gateway to that potentially.

This whole concept of "Trump just wants to get richer" is dumb; I discussed it recently and got crickets in response.

Trump is rich, he doesn't need to risk assassination in his 80s to have the Secret Service stay at his resorts for incremental gain.  Meanwhile, Obama and Biden went from 6 figures to 8 figures in net worth in the past 10-15 years.  So yes, some politicians benefit tremendously financially from their service.  I would say you are looking at the wrong people.

And really, Elon?  Like, he needs all of the effort he plans for the Efficiency job, because he's going to go from $50B to... what exactly?  People like Musk and Trump are driven by their egos much more than their pocketbooks, at this stage of their lives.

Except just about everything Musk has done, while simultaneously making him rich, has been also to benefit mankind.  PayPal is the only real exception but that was just his starting point.

Good point on RFK.  Yes, RFK would love the opportunity to overhaul the FDA.  But do you really think that means he would support a coup of the nation to do it?  (I'm using "you" in the general sense; you said you don't think that is the plan).  :cheers:

Would he support a "coup" of the overall country? Of course not. I think at some point- again in a hypothetical scenario where a coup was the plan- I think RFK's familial history would pull him away from that. But in trying to overtake and overhaul the FDA (which I do think is likely and more problematic) he would essentially ripping at a pillar of the US as an attack dog for Trump either knowingly or unknowingly.

And again let me be clear to what I've said numerous times. I don't think Trump is the fundamental end of democracy. I do think his plan would kick at some of the foundational pillars of the country which could adversely affect democracy. Even if I don't believe that is his ultimate goal.

I understand and agree to an extent with the concerns about the overhauls, but I would say they are more of a threat to the systems in place vs. "democracy."

My concerns are in line with Chesterton's Fence -- don't just tear down the fence (system) without understanding why the fence is there in the first place.

Trump always wants to get richer, but we understand that's not the primary driver, which is his ego and narcissism. Elon is a free spirit and my guess is that he's in it for similar reasons; self aggrandizement, proximity to the levers of power, knowledge that he is way smarter than Trump and can use his new platform as turnip's BFF to shape policy to his liking.

A smart person tries to surround himself with people that are even smarter.  The effeminates somehow see that as a bad thing.

I think with Trump on a lot of this stuff that he either doesn't understand why the fence is there or, more insidiously, doesn't care why the fence was created in the first place.

Lets hope with Musk, RFK, Vivek, Tulsi among others, that deep state trash like bolton and just about everyone Trump picked last time, are exposed this time. Trash like lindsey graham needs to sit down and shut up. All the fucktards that went against Trump like paul ryan need to be told to get lost and hope that the Trump DOJ doesn't indict them.

Yup. That's why turnip's primary qualification for hiring staff is unquestioning loyalty. The last thing he wants is someone around him that is smarter than he is.

Perhaps.  Keep in mind though that the reasoning behind Chesterton's fence was a warning about progressive policies.

Quote

"Chesterton's fence" is the principle that reforms should not be made until the reasoning behind the existing state of affairs is understood. The quotation is from Chesterton's 1929 book, The Thing: Why I Am a Catholic, in the chapter, "The Drift from Domesticity":

In the matter of reforming things, as distinct from deforming them, there is one plain and simple principle; a principle which will probably be called a paradox. There exists in such a case a certain institution or law; let us say, for the sake of simplicity, a fence or gate erected across a road. The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, "I don't see the use of this; let us clear it away." To which the more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: "If you don't see the use of it, I certainly won't let you clear it away. Go away and think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use of it, I may allow you to destroy it."

To my point:  are you saying that Musk, RFK, Gabbard, Vivek all have unquestioning loyalty?
