Nope. Biden may be a fuckwit, but he's ''one of the boys'' in the eyes of veteran Republicans. He's a neocon, which many Republicans are. Trump's ego-trips and the fact that his own employees turned against him show that he's not a team player, and when push comes to shove, he'll care more for himself rather than the party or the country, and the Republicans already saw that in January 6, when Trump allowed his people to call for the death OF HIS OWN VICE PRESIDENT. If Trump wins, the Republican establishment will either support Biden or break off to support their own person. That could be Ron DeSantis, Mike Pence, Chris Christie, or some other guy who isn't as crazy or detached as Trump was. The split will break the Republican vote in half, allowing Biden to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
Seriously, this idea that Republicans are going to back Biden or help him win is stupid and illogical. The Republican establishment are not the Republican
base. In fact, you can argue that the establishment have been out of sink with the base for awhile. Part of the reason that Hailey did so poorly in Iowa was that she was seen as another establishment neocon. Neither she nor DeSantis nor Hailey have any momentum coming out of Iowa, and when they lose in New Hampshire, it will be over for them. They aren't going to split the ticket for no real gain and it would destroy DeSantis's political career to do so. He's already damaged it by running against Trump. Nobody wins in that scenario. The party will ultimately coalesce around Trump once it becomes clear that he has the support of the vast majority of the base. They won't have a choice. Anyone who attempts to run against Trump will effectively be committing political suicide.
The legal system established by the Constitution called for Pence to accept the votes that made Biden president. Trump resisted it and called on his fans to resist it. Trump will trample upon the Constitution if enough of his fans tell him it's OK. If enough of his fans say that he should run for a third term, he'll do it and use FDR as an example.
Trump never did anything that was illegal or against the Constitution. When he considered doing so, he was always told that it was illegal and that he couldn't do it, and he always listened to the advice of his advisors, even if he didn't like it. Trump isn't a fool; he's not going to try to do something blatantly illegal.
Immigration is a minor problem that can be solved by tossing the unwanted immigrants into the boonies where they can eke out a life as farmers.
This is just a laughably stupid take made without any regard for the actual reality of the situation.
As for China, a trade war is unnecessary, given that the Chinese economy is collapsing; its property bubble burst, foreign investors are leaving, manufacturing is moving to other countries like Vietnam and Mexico, the only real threat from China is military, which is something everyone can agree on.
Regardless of the state of China's economy, it still has outsized influence on America's economy, and many American companies still do the majority of their manufacturing there, and a good chunk of American goods are still produced there. Trump will push for further decoupling of America from China, and more than likely increase America's presence in the Pacific, along with weapons sales to Taiwan, which were both things he was doing during his last term.
As for making America energy independent, too many oil barons and oil interests will foil that, not to mention the fact that Trump is friends with the Saudis, so I highly doubt he'd fuck his own friends in the ass.
This literally makes no sense. America
was already energy independent during Trump's first term, which is why gas was low. The independence ended under
Biden, who took a harsh stance against fossil fuels and curtailed American production, while encouraging foreign powers, like Saudi Arabia, to produce more oil so that America could buy it. This statement literally doesn't align with reality at all.
Then that will end Trump's regime before it even starts.
How so? Trump could easily undo Biden's entire legacy because most of it was federal order and mandates that Trump can undo with the swipe of a pen. Since the Democrats never controlled both houses during Biden's term, he could never pass legislation. As for Federal agencies, Trump, as President, can do much to defang and weaken those agencies with little trouble. He won't be able to abolish a lot them without congressional approval, but he could easily do much to terminally weaken them.
If he defangs them, no one will serve him to replace them outside of uneducated zealots who wouldn't know how to run something like the FBI.
You say that like its a bad thing. The FBI is a fucking joke that has shown itself to be grossly political over the last few years. There have been increasing calls to reform or abolish it, and its long overdo for something to change.
You do realize that a lot of people Trump promoted in the past like James Mattis turned against him, right?
This is because Trump consistently hired Washington insiders who had their own agenda that clashed with his. Towards the end of his Presidency, his staff were far more loyal and didn't try to break away from him, like Mike Pompeo.
Trump is either so incompetent that he keeps hiring traitors, or so egotistical that he turns people who owe everything to him against him
Trump hired political insiders to help him because he was a political outsider, and he followed the advice of people around him to hire those who were politically connected and could navigate Washington politics. This became an issue when he essentially clashed with everyone he hired because he came in as a populist reformer and had to deal with those insiders being part of the system he wanted reformed. He took far more control over his appointments later and had far less disloyal people.
Nope. As much as the Dems fuck up, people will still vote for them because the Republicans have a reputation of being farther to the right, mostly thanks to guys like Trump.
People still vote Democrat because party loyalty now trumps (pun not intended) everything else for most people. "Vote blue, no matter who" and all that. It doesn't matter whose name the "D" is sitting beside, people will vote that anyway, even if its against their own interest.
