[The Ugly One]

I don't think the mean words are what was being referred to. The blatant character assassinations with potentially disastrous lawsuit after lawsuit from the private sector were rough, but people don't target the target alone anymore, they go after friends and family. Melania's social circle has tanked hard since Trump became president, his family suffers along with him, and that hurts more than them targeting you. If his wife was a weaker woman, a messy divorce and subsequent backstabbing from your own wife turning on you to keep her "friends" would be devastating.
Then after 2020 and his return to civilian life, the pressure went up to 11 with the felony trials, forced sale of his property for governmental fuckery, further character assassinations and attacks on his legacy, plus the disbarment from doing business in the area you've done it for decades, that would be such a low that quite a lot of people would tap out. Then when he continued to persevere in face of all this bullshit, the assassination attempts started rolling in. Arguably these failed attempts and felony convictions probably galvanized him to the Punished Trump arc, since there was clearly no backing out now, so all he could do was fight to the death, but fighting the leviathan that is government seems way harsher than dealing with the mob as it reaches its twilight years. I'd almost argue the mob is more reasonable and rational than the government, you know what they want and how far they're able to safely go, the government can take you for a decades long ride and then walk away like nothing happened just because you pissed off the wrong bureaucrat 20 years ago and they've been sharpening the knife waiting for their chance.

Sometimes we forget that the demographic transformation of America into a 3rd-world shithole is so important to these people that they attempted to assassinate the President over it.

He's either being appointed as Special Prosecutor, or they're gonna kill him. Really 50/50 at this point.

It's shocking just how poorly the DNC is being run currently.
It's been half a year since Trump was sworn in, and they're nowhere closer to having a coherent message, much less a party leader, than they were immediately post-election.
I feel like the Peter Principle has finally come home to roost, where the Democrat party has promoted so many incompetent dipshits in the name of diversity that they have no one with any kind of political tact to keep them focused.

The issue is the moneymen, there are plenty of DNC party officials who are true believers in gay race Communism but the moneymen are not true believers.

The moneymen supported DEI because they were promised that after the growing pains there would be unlimited profits forever.

That didn't happen, in fact not even the profit part happened. Instead wokeness has caused economic failure after economic failure and a cumulative destruction of wealth probably bot seen since Mao's Great leap forward.

Now the not very bright people who run these corpos and hedge funds are realizing a decade too late that they've been tricked.

The Democrat party still used to be mostly center-right up until the early 2010s, then the sick jokes that they had for "leaders" went overdrive with imposing Hollywood-Manhattan style neoliberalism on every state chapter, with zero regard for whether it correlated with their local challenges and needs or not. This has led to places that were still dominated by Democrats on a state-level, such as West Virginia, Kentucky, and Arkansas, completely flipping to GOP-dominated in a span of a mere 8 years, or the entirety of Obama's presidency.

Now the entire Democrat apparatus is run by creatures like these, and there is no reason for anyone to think it won't get worse for them. Which makes all the panicans shrieking about "muh blue wave" all the more fucktarded. Those faggots should learn a thing or two about voting patterns for a change.

[Hey Johnny Bravo]

At minimum, the 2024 election would have been a contentious shitshow. At worst, we'd have all sorts of factions clamoring for control over the US, likely with varying degrees of political violence that would make the Summer of Love look like grannies getting together for afternoon tea.

I am very confident that, if Trump got domed, that would have been instant civil war. No doubt in my mind. I still think that kid was groomed and there's no excuse for how close he got. There was literally a fucking ladder set up on the building for him. Maybe there is a logical explanation for everything and it really was a perfect storm of coincidences, but - as @Elim Garak might say - with a very convenient assassination in one hand and a dead candidate in the other, I ask you: what conclusion would you draw?

he is going to blame bondi for the Epstein stuff and replace her with Gatez

 

[No-Eyed Square Guy]

Dude, if Trump got killed then it would have been a wrap. Country over. Put up the chairs, sweep up the floors, turn off the lights, and shutter the windows.

I don't watch any kind of political TV but I did see a lot of viewers remark at the time that the Republican National Convention, held a couple days after the failed shot, was suggestive of a plan to move on from Trump and nominate Nikki Haley (and VP Vance), like it was a show cobbled together out of leftover parts that show.

The plan was "in the air," as they say.

I don't think it would have mattered. If Americans were going to start kicking over the moneychangers' tables, we'd have done it long ago. We know we've lost, and we realized too late.

 

[Mr. Zed da Robot Poon Fed]

For fuck's sake, you don't NEED probable cause to detain someone, you just need reasonable suspicion! Terry v. Ohio, ever heard of it? If you're a fucking federal judge, YOU SHOULD HAVE. How about Hiibel v. Nevada, you have to identify yourself if you're stopped with reasonable suspicion, ever heard of that one? If you're a fucking federal judge, YOU SHOULD HAVE.

You think these judges give a shit? If they did, Prop 187 would have happened. Clearly these judges are pro-illegal immigrant.

Say goodbye to any chance of Trump replacing Bondi
L / A
View attachment 7634904

Trump is getting cucked and backstabbed by Congress and you're BLACKPILLING???

Trump would be stupid to replace Bondi. The reason the Epstein shit leaked was because Trump's opponents want him to lose appointments quickly and throw his administration into chaos. It's the same shit they did his first term: hope that bad press causes firings/resignations and renders departments and bureaus useless with constant interim leadership.

Despite what some people in the thread might say or think, I'm not pleased about how the Epstein shit went. However, it was leaked prematurely on purpose, and that purpose was to try and push out Bondi and/or Patel and thus remove two key leadership positions - the Department of Justice and the FBI. Trump cannot lose his chief legal and law enforcement bureaus right now, especially when they are staffed by people who are loyal. Merrick Garland was loyal to the Biden administration and so was Chris Wray. It should be no different with Trump and his people.

If Trump and his people are smart, they will wait it out. The Democrats will find a new shiny ball to chase after. Trump should start talking about running for a third term again, that'll troll the Dems enough.

Your mistake here is trusting political TV at all. I did not know a single Republican who wanted Nikki Haley. It was all Trump.

Except we have.
The real issue is the only acceptable ones are from the Dems.

How many retards on this website alone continue to try and harp about J6/Charlottesville (despite how much they glowed)?
How many of these people are willing to look the other way for DNC-backed riots?

The devastating wildfires that local authorities allowed to get out of control in California last winter were not so much a crisis as an opportunity to accelerate the transformation of the erstwhile Golden (Shower) State in accordance with neoliberal dogma; that is, replacing the homes destroyed by the fire with slums:

Six months after the devastating Palisades and Eaton fires, California Gov. Gavin Newsom unveiled $101 million in funding Tuesday for “multifamily low-income housing development” that will “contribute to a more equitable and resilient Los Angeles.” The priority is for “geographic proximity to the fire perimeters of the Eaton, Hughes, and Palisades fires.”

Democrat rule means gentrification in reverse:

California state law and a local Los Angeles ordinance require fire-destroyed rent-protected housing — which includes all apartments in the city built before October 1978 — be replaced with low-income housing. Because the affordability requirements use county-level income data, not more local incomes, definitions for “low” and “very low” income housing reflect much lower incomes than the norm for the affluent Palisades community.

Barks Jennifer Seeger, the HCD deputy director of the Division of State Financial Assistance:

“The Multifamily Finance Super NOFA – Los Angeles Disaster (MFSN-LA Disaster) makes funds more accessible to support the development of safe, fire-resilient multifamily low-income housing that will provide long-term stability, protect vulnerable populations, and contribute to a more equitable and resilient Los Angeles.”

What a beautiful locale to build an equitable slum at public expense.

To qualify as Supportive Housing Multifamily Housing, a project must provide at least 40% of its units for the homeless, or individuals who have spent at least 15 days in “jails, hospitals, prisons, and institutes of mental disease.”

Those who don’t want to live in that kind of neighborhood will get out, leaving behind a higher percentage of government dependents to guarantee the election of still more unhinged shitlibs. California yet again confirms it's succumbing to the Democrat Death Spiral.

Cracks are forming in the liberal establishment. Longtime JPMorgan Chase Chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon is an establishment pillar. Neoliberalism is losing him:

Dimon has supported DEI in the past. But enough is enough.



The next revelation for Dimon on his return to human normality will be that their brains can’t possibly be that little, and consequently their hearts can’t be that big.

Lol, Jamie Dimon isn't a "liberal." JPMorgan Chase, and banks that follow their lead, had DEI because it was essentially required. You'll find that, beginning in January of this year, those programs are being reduced, renamed, and well on their way to minimization at best.

Dimon was also recently (iirc, it was mentioned itt or another a&n thread) recorded cursing out people with poor meeting etiquette (being on phones) (fair; wtf would be meeting with Jamie Dimon and using their phone) and bitching about pushback against being required to be in the office 5 days/ week (iirc he said he can't reach anyone on Fridays and that he's been in 7 days/ week since covid, though lol he didn't mention his $2.7B net worth or $39M comp package for doing so).

For those not familiar with Rosie 'O Donnell, she is very much the prototypical lolcow. Ergo, the only creatures who would think that abomination has any worth are neoliberals. So tiresome.

All of them. These people have no scruples. Power Uber Alles.

Trump calling Rosie O'Donnell "a threat to humanity" is fucking hilarious.

This is more true than people want to acknowledge. JPMorgan gave more to Trump in 2024, but gave more to Biden in 2020. A lot of these major corporations put their money where the wind is blowing. OpenSecrets is a very useful website.

I love that no one even considers the possibility that this is a joke. Calling that old bitch a "threat to humanity" when literally no one listens to her should be the clue.

Unfortunately, too many of these license recipients lack the business savvy to be successful.

People think black people don't have jobs and go to jail because whites are racist, when it's actually because they're too stupid and lazy to do anything except commit crime.

They had been talking about the "coalition of the ascendant" for years. The idea was they had the following votes locked in:

• Women, due to abortion & feminism
• Blacks, because duh
• Hispanics, due to open borders + gibs
• Non-Christian, university-educated people, due to being the Party of Science
• Fags

Add all those up, and it amounts to everyone in the country except blue-collar white males voting Democrat. They couldn't conceive of it going any other way. All they had to was max out immigration, and they would never lose another election.

Wow, they just keep loving to double down, don’t they? Just keep funding the same bullshit that will never happen. It’s not like your efforts to curb homelessness only resulted in increasing homelessness, right?
