There were quite a few blatantly American posters on here but they seem to have gone very quiet of late!
Trumpers will be back soon enough - it takes time to swallow, digest and then regurgitate the volume of bullst Trump feeds them.

Just in total disbelief at what is going on at the moment. Just when will someone stop this idiot?

Once Trump realises countries are not going to roll over with the tariffs he will no doubt start to make noises about pulling out of NATO.

He’s in real danger of alienating all potential allies and is doing nothing other than accelerating Chinas rise to dominance.
This has been covered before but the combination of him clearly not understanding tariffs and only understands negotiations in terms of winners and losers, aggressors and submitters is extremely dangerous. As you say it seems likely that he will just escalate.

Of all the things we really don’t need uncertainty around global trade must be high on the list.
I think he deserves to have something long lasting for all to remember him by. Obviously that sycophant has proposed adding Trump's chinless gurn to Mt Rushmore (didn't he suggest it himself last time?) but I can do better... I propose the Dunning-Kruger effect should be renamed "doing a Trump".

That part of Reddit is surely 95% Russian bot farms.

Trump is driven by popularity and nothing else. He has to be popular and will do or say anything so that people will like him. Just take a look at some of his speeches on the campaign trail - the message changed for the audience (which is usually fine). The problem was he changed policies on the fly so that people would like him. Call it lies or call it political posturing, it still is caused by the same thing. He wont make a decision that makes him unpopular.

As soon as his current popularity, which isnt as good as some might suggest, shifts, he will make policy changes pretty rapidly. As noted before, the average American doesnt hold any stocks in a meaningful amount, so the stock market means little to them. But when stuff starts rapidly rising in price, the public will feel this and there isnt much spin you can apply to say that its Bidens fault.

It wont be a policy change because its the right thing for the American people, but all focused around making sure Trump keeps the adoring fans happy.

On a positive note there's actually a deep, robust US Syrah in Aldi today. I'm drinking it whilst rewatching Civil War.

Musk can sack the entire US diplomatic corp.

He and Trump can handle it all.

Someone did an analysis of "most popular reddit locations" and it turned out that a particular US air force base was the most popular location for users to post from. hehe

this is very different. he's removed all responsible adults from his circle and replaced them with sycophant cretins.

And you ain't seen nothing yet folks!

What's it going to be like after six or twelve months...
It's been flippantly mentioned before. Hard to believe that it ever got mentioned in the first place or was a thought in anybodies head.
Some times we're living in.

True, this seems to be a more degenerate breed of yes men and women.

For new UK governments there a 100 days thing. I wonder what that will be like for the new Trump government?

I think he is far more ideological this time as well. He’s spent a lot of time surrounded by people who have sold him their vision for America.

He doesn't have an ideological bone in his body, but he's been bought by those that do.
