Trump Derangement Syndrome - Orange man bad. Read the OP! (ᴛʜɪs ᴛʜʀᴇᴀᴅ ɪs ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴋɪᴡɪ ғᴀʀᴍs ʀᴇᴠɪᴇᴡs ɴᴏᴡ) 🗿🗿🗿🗿

Man, it's gonna be a real bummer if President Trump loses. We'll survive though.

And if he wins, well that'd be pretty decent!
Well regardless of who wins, one thing is for sure, with how this decade has started so far I expect the 2020's to be complete shit anyway.

So with the riots and civil unrest, the pandemic, the world economy taking a mortal blow. I expect the whole world to go up in flames now.

Now call me a 'doomer' if you want but with the way 2020 has been so far I see this year a preview of things going from bad to worse.

So here's to the end of the world everyone then.

Not as many "We deserved 9/11" or "We're actually the baddies" posts as I was expecting yesterday.

So Donald Trump may actually get Israel and the goatfuckers to stop killing each other and they want to end the Nobel Peace Prize now

Well I don't know about you but if this means less religious fanatics being suicide bombers and less crashing trucks into crowds then fine by me then.
Between this, the trade war and the Korean peacetalks, he's certainly had a good track record for dealing with conflicts without starting a new war.

Closest we've come was when he killed General Salami, yet all that did was show Iran's own incompetence by blowing up their own airliner. So yeah, least war-hungry president since Carter!

Killing General Soleimani completely defanged Iran's foreign policy and broke their growing hold on the region. His targeted death is one of the major reasons that the region at large can begin moving toward a more peaceful state; the Iranians aren't hiding in everyone's back yard undermining their efforts to the extreme degree they were before the airstrike. Currently Iran are reduced to killing professional wrestlers to placate the masses. Nice work, guys.

And all it took was the assassination of one guy, as opposed to sending in the army and destroying everything and killing a bunch of your own men in the process.

A+ work from President Donald Trump and his team.

You know what would have been nice? If the media better reported on the decrease in power of the Hezbollah, instead of whining that Trump killed a terrorist, so I could have actually known that without specifically looking for it.

Well what do you know, 3 years Trump achieved more peace/potentials for peace than the last few presidents combined.

Iran got defanged as soon as Trump took office and cut off the ankle-grabbing deal Obama "negotiated" (jesus fuck it still pisses me off). But whoever got oil below $30/barrel is the real hero of destroying Iran's softpower. Once their oil checks went away, they couldn't finance their shit anymore. Killing Salami - as awesome as that was - was simply the snowball that started the avalanche and turned the slow dismantling via cash starvation into a complete collapse.

Iran was over committed - Yemen, Syria, and having a slap fight with Pakistan. These were all expensive endeavors. Syria alone has set back their Remove Matzoh agenda by a decade or more as anyone who's actually mildly competent at combat is shoring up Assad and what's left is the B team, and the only significant the Anti-Jew forces have managed to blow up since Syria stalemated is their own fucking """"""fertilizer""""""" warehouse. When oil was above $50 a barrel, Iran had lots of money to burn supporting their side in Yemen - they weren't getting a lot out of it, but every dollar they spent cost the Saudis about a buck and a half. They were smuggling the best arms they could home-spin. But not any more; it is pretty much 100% Syria focus now. Yemen gets the scraps, and that's all they pull off for the moment.

Salami got whacked when he was in Iraq basically keeping the troops in line. The Iraqi militia were already starting to get unhappy with the lack of support from Iran, and he was the right mix of carrot and stick to keep them on target. Him getting spread all over the pavement just brought the situation to an immediate head.
 
I'll say it: Greece doesn't have joggers. Just once I'd like to see a person touting Europe's superiority in every category compared to Americans actually break down the statistics by race. How do the whites in America compare to the whites in Europe? It's not hard for one country to look better than another country when the latter country has to include shitholes like Chicago and Detroit and the Heart Attack Belt of the black Deep South.
Greece does have a bunch of muslims turning the place into a shithole though. They were one of the first places to take in "refugees" (about a decade before everyone else did) and they completely trashed the areas the government set them up. There are places you will be warned never to go if you enjoy living by the locals if you ever visit (at least in the villages, the larger towns/cities I'm not sure as my family lives on the outskirts).

Also, Greece is a significantly smaller country compared to the US.

I'll have to disagree, call me naive. Everyone sees doom gloom and that's easy. The hardest part is to accept that the world will still rotate and like all bad times, they'll come to past.

I think part of what drives so many folks nuts about Trump is that he is really demonstrating that there is a difference between "book smarts" and "street smarts."

Of course, I already know some objections that are going to arise, so let me use the original terms: "intelligence" vs "experience/wisdom."

This is especially clear if you listen to a lot of pundits - even the right-wing ones - who keep talking about data and all this other stuff, and so often are made fools of by Trump. That's when it clicked for me. Sure these people are very smart. Even if he can be grating at times, Ben Shapiro is a smart guy. But he's also young. He doesn't have decades of dealing in shark-infested business waters. Trump does. It steadily becomes clearer to me that Trump, for all his faults, does get people and does get how to give them what they want. He may not be the smartest in the room, but he's the craftiest and wisest in there it looks like.

That's why I'm hoping Trump not only gets 4 more years, but that America finally learns that maybe we want in our leaders people who have gotten their hands dirty and know a thing or two about actually dealing with life, instead of being stuffed full of academic nonsense.

Though I think Scott Adams is stupid about a number of things, he does have this funny criticism of artist's thinking. The logic going that artists often imagine all parts of stories, like from books, movies, or TV shows, has relevancy to the plot, so if anything is ever mentioned as being part of the story then it must be relevant. And you see a similar action in place with pundits, where they hear some random rumor about Trump, consider part of the Trump story, and imagine they're seeing all parts of the story even those behind the scenes so they must be understanding it all in its entirety.

You also have a form of this with coronavirus, where pundits and armchair epidemiologists were imagining their data on cases and the death rates of those cases was all completely accurate regarding what was happening with the entirety of the population of their country, even while you didn't have half the entire country being tested.

Common theme is this disbelief that they could be lacking information. Which seems to lay in stark contrast to Trump who kept trying to find people to give good advice to further his goals. Yet even that ending up fucking him up a few times like with Sessions' appointment or Mattis'. Still I'd rather have a guy in charge that will ask a room full of generals to actually come up with a plan to succeed with some war rather than some dumbass that thinks he himself should be doing the planning.
 
I don't know anymore.
And when will these liberals and leftists on the far left fucking look up the definition of a nazi, I'm tired of dumbasses comparing trump to fucking Hitler.

I'm sorry, that will always anger me, and I disagree with Trump 90% of the time.
I still give up hope for wishing America to be better, America is just screwed by having a lot of lunatics screaming about their own president for petty and childish reasons. And I still don't like either political sides either, fuck them at this point. I still hate myself for being on the same side that wants to kill people for a simple disagreement and calling them 1000 insults.
I'm more tired of ww2, nazi and hitler references at this point.

Here's some :optimistic: :

Maybe Trump wins, and these the terror cells (Antifa, and other rioters) get crushed. The economy also gets better, a la Calvin Coolidge, and the new Roaring Twenties occurs.

Biden (Kamala) wins, and hopefully he/she won't be Hoover, but a Democrat. If he/she is, hopefully an FDR from either party will come again.
 




Since gender reveal parties are in the news, I thought this would be good for a chuckle. Had no idea where to put it.

A friend of mine passed along a saying that serves as a good illustration: "Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing you don't put it in a fruit salad."

The TDS-afflicted just don't seem to believe that Trump is capable of achieving anything. You see them explaining away his business success as "SMALL LOAN OF A MILLION DOLLARS" and "LOOK AT ALL HIS BANKRUPTCIES," unable to accept that he might actually know a thing or two about making money. Any victories he's had as president are "THAT WAS OBAMA'S DOING" or "HE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT" or "PROBABLY JUST TRYING TO MAKE MORE MONEY," completely refusing to give him a modicum of credit. Bury that under an avalanche of standard TDS talking points, and you have the typical hysterical opposition.

These people seriously think that Trump is borderline retarded, so they flat-out can't fathom that he just might know what he's doing. Or to put it another way, conservatives take Trump seriously, but not literally; liberals take Trump literally, but not seriously.
 
"Peace was never an option."

At least they're admitting they're the bad guys now.

The fact that the people who don't want Trump to have the Nobel Peace Prize, are the same people who won't stop screaming that the 2016 election was rigged. Cause if people arent caving to their autism, then they'll make you cave in one way or another.

Depends on the fruit salad. Salsa is fantastic.

I hope Trump wins the NPP because people would try to reach for some sort of reasoning that still somehow makes trump look bad
