He’s coming back in 2024 bigger and better than ever before. The biggerest and betterest president the world has ever seen. Huge. 

He runs again he will win. The Democrats don't seem to learn they just want to fill their pockets as much as they can when they're in. These politicians seem to make millions and millions of pounds being public servants.

Quite a long read, but a good one too. Outlining the work that's being done to ensure that Trump gets "elected" in 2024, by fair means or foul.

The Democrats seem remarkably 'relaxed' about this. It's a bit bizarre.

Trump filled a void in a part of America that continues to yearn for a strongman who will deliver it from despair. A similar void haunts other nations where democracy is imperiled. The challenge ahead for the US as elsewhere is to fill that void with hope rather than neofascism. This is the real meaning of 6 January.

According to Forbes, the former president lost nearly a billion dollars over the course of his presidency, from $3.5 billion in 2017 to $2.4 billion this year.

 

When Mr Trump became President, he refused to divest from his own businesses. Critics lambasted the decision as unethical and self-serving, but it may actually have diminished his fortune. After he left office, Forbes calculated that if the former president had simply liquidated his assets and invested the cash in the S&P 500, he would be $1.6 billion richer today.

 

Big timer.

Melania with a garage sale - times are tight y'all.

 

 

Melania Trump is aiming to fetch at least $250,000 by selling items including a white hat and digital and watercolor paintings of herself as part of a "historic auction."

 

The launch of the auction — an unusual, if not unprecedented move by a former first lady — comes weeks after Trump said she would be releasing nonfungible tokens, or NFTs, for sale in regular intervals.

Can't believe there isn't more vocal opposition at the moment. The media is full of Tories normalising it, instead of opposition outrage.

Start attacking the credibility of the internal investigation now. It's not independent. It's gonna be a whitewash. Apologies are good enough for the PM but not for people like Stratton, Hancock etc.

 

He is getting away with this and if you thought there was piss taking previously, it'll get to a new level after this.

Yep the feeling amongst Tory voters seems to be shifting to “far more important things” “yawn” “witch-hunt” “Starmer did exactly the same” “who cares”

Scary stuff. They're becoming an extremist party.

 

When, not if, the next Republican president takes the helm it's brown trousers time.

“Republicans have just become a denialist party. This precedes Trump. When President Obama was elected, Mitch McConnell, Senate leader for the Republicans and maybe the most influential person in the party, said straight out that the Republicans have one goal, make sure he cannot achieve anything.”

“He’s doing exactly the same thing now,” Chomsky says of McConnell and Senate Republicans.

“When Joe Biden was elected, McConnell said very explicitly, our goal is to ensure that he can achieve nothing. We’ll harm the country as much as possible, and we will then blame it on the Democrats, and we’ll come back to power. That’s not a political party. That’s a radical insurgency. No interest in democracy.”
