I think I know what you’re getting at and share many of your concerns. I’m not sure I’d point a finger at Trump on this though. World leaders think he’s bat shit crazy. And he’s also willing to kiss ass for peace. As such he was able to play Kim and North Korea in a way that reduced the threat from North Korea IMO. They practically shut down intermediate and long term ballistic missile launches anyway. Ukraine right now is the most likely place where a nuclear holocaust could originate. And Trump, unlike most other USA politicians and European leaders wants to see a settlement of the hostilities there ASAP.The bat-shit crazy Party has the control. Under the control of a madman who can't control himself. You're right, I wouldn't "point the finger" at Dumpster himself. He's too inept to actually know he's the cause. Like a puppet on a string that picks up and throws a firework. His masters, the money men behind his bankrupt plans, are pulling the strings and will be the ones we should point a finger at. He, and we all, will be at the mercy of whoever is going to keep his dumb ass from being sentenced to prison.
But on the other hand his rhetoric towards Iran, a soon to be nuclear power, goes the other way.
Will he rule as an autocrat or overthrow democracy? Very unlikely. He’s more like your cranky old uncle who says a lot of crazy things but his bark is worse than his bite. And if he tried to do something crazy, American institutions wouldn’t let him. Originally Posted by Tiny

I'm really struggling to be diplomatic here. The psycho is a danger to the world at large.
wrong. America First isn't isolationist and this far left socialist screed thread is wrong. Trump is exactly what Putin and Xi DON'T WANT .. someone who they can't intimidate. Originally Posted by The_Waco_Kid

Dumpster is exactly what Putin and Xi ABSOLUTELY need. A weak character easily manipulated with praise, pussy or cash. They don't need to intimidate him. He's bought and sold already.
I am old enough to remember that the Left thought Reagan was bat shit crazy too. Originally Posted by Jacky SYeah, me too. Even as just a wee lad I saw the news and Sunday shows where we thought he was fucking crazy. Turned our he was demented even before running for office.
Yep. He’s a shameless pussy. Never seen a fight he wouldn’t back away from. Like Jan, 6.
You fellas got hoodwinked. I certainly hope this isn’t the case, but I fully expect worse from him this time around. Pinot in terms of behavior but in terms of performance.
After all, he’s mentally compromised. Too old and weak for the job. And a narcissistic bully ready to blow the likes of Kim, Orban, Millea, and of course, Putin/Musk Originally Posted by Yssup Rider
He doesn't like to fight. He'll either get paid off not to, or rip someone off instead of.
We won't be surprised by his behavior this time. You're right, this time some people in the new Party will expect him do actually do shit this time. Of significance. Like you I expect the worse, not the better.
Danger ahead:
