Well, at least he hit semi-unity messaging at the very end, so there's that.

But I have no confidence in his respect for the separation of powers given his last go around. And all the 'swamp people' willing to defend those constitutional separation of powers- are they going to be there this time? We'll see, I guess.

The worst thing about this is that it will be four years before the USA has another presidential election, and it is really hard to believe that things will change. Frankly, it is easy to assume that things will take several elections to improve, meaning that it can take anything from 4, 8, 12, 16, or 20 years.

This is a point of no return for any sensible person imo.

It really fucking should be anyway

At this point I'm convinced Trump could ban the Democrat party, run against a "greater evil", and the same Democrats glazing Kamala would be here demanding we vote him in for a 3rd term.

It's mostly due to high electricity and energy prices making industry uncompetitive, due to Ukraine war and shutting down coal/nuclear power plants and using unreliable renewable energy and gas.Also why the UK has the highest electricity prices in the developed world.

Hopefully Trump follows through, no more funds for corrupt Ukraine and lets try to end the war.It's been highly inflationary for both energy and foodstuffs.


Most people here are fine with suffering for Ukraine and realise that a Putin win is much worse for everyone in Europe in the long term, even just economically. He is not a reliable partner.


Another positive that might come out of this is that Europe will wake the fuck up and realize that America won't fight all of their battles for them.

Which battles are those?

Russia.

Isolationism didn't work in the interwar period, it couldn't have worked during the Cold War, and it won't work now.

Do people really never learn from history?

No offense, but you guys are the last people I want to be preached to about this. Aren't your armed forces an absolute joke right now?

Sure, compared to where military figures would like them to be, but we're still supporting Ukraine because it's in our best interest to do so.

America seems to be in a rush to cut their nose to spite their face.

Bold strategy...

I think if we completely stopped all military aid to Ukraine tommorrow, the rest of Europe together might catch up to the sum total we've aided them by 2026.

You guys don't need us to beat Russia in Ukraine. You never did. It was just convenient for you.

Time to be inconvenienced I guess.

Not saying I'm happy about it, but that's the truth of the situation.

That the UK/EU can do it ourselves isn't the point. We've contributed more than America.

The point is that America will benefit from stopping Russian expansionism, and so choosing not to contribute is naive idealism.


Don't need to convince me. I already know all of that.

You need to convince the people in the country that simply see the spending figures and wonder why their tax dollar is going to finance bombs in countries on the other side of the world instead of being used where it helps them.

I know that's overly simplistic. I know the geopolitics of the situation. But the average American doesn't or doesn't care.

And that's a fact our allies need to come to grips with. This is a country that is tired of being the hall monitor for the entire world. I'm not saying I agree with it, but I'd be an idiot to not see it for what it is.

Hey look on the bright side. The last time Protoss won anything was when Trump was in office. This might just be what they need to finally start winning again.

And replaced with another of Trump's lackeys. Republicans are gonna control the Senate now too, so there won't even be a chance to fight who he picks.

The Supreme Court situation is the worst news in this entire mess. Every other issue you can minimize how bad this actually is. But the Supreme Court situation is fucked.

Electoralism is certainly going to have a tough hill to climb this cycle.

How does anyone hate Trump this much?

I can get someone that thinks he crass, or that he is an attention whore, or an asshole, or has a variety of character defects.... at the same time he also is unusually humble for someone of his net worth showing genuine interest in common men, authentic, and more than anything he's a great troll that knows how to entertain.
