Well… If you found your way here, it might mean I said something that triggers you enough to check me out.
No problem. Feel free to disagree with whatever it was, just know that I usually make an effort to not engage with anything I may perceive as a provocative or that won’t lead anywhere, or reply to things I don’t believe merit discussion.
If for any other reason, be welcome and cheers.
Been saying it for years. Sadly there are too many at the bottom mesmerized by the elite propaganda telling them “you can also be like me, if you work hard”, as if they earned billions that way without any dirty tactics along the way, and despite even with success still needing such tactics to take more and more.
What was he gonna say?
“Oh yes, yes. Mr. Garcia enjoyed the finest torture available in El Salvador, courtesy of me - the self-proclaimed world’s best dictator. Everyone’s welcome, we have great torturing facilities and the best staff for you and your loved ones. 💝”
“You basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the f— they’re doing! Do you understand that?”
Yes, we all understood that for a long time, and not just with this conflict - ironic you would say they “don’t know what the f- they’re doing”, though. Who would have thought diplomacy requires more than “I’m the ‘big guy’, so they’ll naturally listen to anything I have to say”. Who would have thought these long standing conflicts would require more than saying “let there be peace” to solve.
We all, nameless citizens of the world, have known it for a long time - even though we can’t do much about it - about Israel/Iran, about Russia/Ukraine, and so on. While you, toddler living in a golden bubble that you are, have been focusing exclusively on golfing and how to perfect the art of the grift, as well as securing golden parachutes from your grifter friends each time you manage to bankrupt a casino. So now you get to the big chair and think the chair is what gives you power, when in fact it was most of your predecessors’ hard work that gave so much power to the POTUS chair. The same power you’re now imploding.
Closeted men of war preaching about peace. Closeted gays fighting against gay rights. Judgemental/greedy/racist religious people putting themselves on a pedestal about how you should “take care of thy neighbor”.
It’s always the ones who preach the most, the same ones doing the exact opposite of what they preach. Always the ones bitching about the bad in the world actively hard at work making the world a shittier place.
Seriously, if Trump says the sky is blue I’ll immediately look up just to check if it hasn’t turned red/green/pink/whatever.
Be always wary of the ones telling you how to live, and watch out for their actions closely. There’s no hate like the ‘love’ of these hypocrites.

Oh no worries. Trump is such a fan of insurrections he hands out pardons by the thousands for them - every single pardon personally signed by him, and totally not by autopen, I’m sure.
Seriously, though. Can’t wait for him to cry victim and pull a surprised pikachu when all this pushback to his antagonization makes it to the steps of the White House. Hope he keeps the surprised face until the bitter end, and that end can’t come soon enough.
On that I fully agree!
So according to his justification it’s “to prevent what happened to Europe”. The Europe which heavily aided the US in the retaliatory invasions post 9/11 through NATO’s Article 5, also the same Europe that has seen the floods of people fleeing the warzones in hopes of finding asylum, not to mention a large increase in terrorist activity in several of its countries? The Europe that’s still dealing with the middle eastern fallout while US sits safe far away with the “big, beautiful ocean” in the middle? That Europe?
Funny. I thought Europe (like NATO) didn’t help the US in any way according to them, some countries (cough cough UK cough cough) didn’t even see war for the last 40 or 50 years, right?
There’s a very special place in hell for the human-shaped plagues who torment mankind at large. A special place fit for certain men with funny mustaches or orange skin.
What better way to manipulate someone with self-worth issues who must flaunt his “power” and “wealth” to “prove others wrong” than stroking his fragile ego?
Small pp energy. Or rather, botched pp energy in this specific case.
Same for the Trump and co. axis of evil - a bunch of adult children with ego issues wanting revenge on the world that belittled or thwarted their constant schemes, all banded together.
At this point, with all the crazy unreal stuff happening - tinfoil hat on - I’m not even 100% sure his previous assassination attempt was not staged. The more I think about it, the way the shooter managed to get past security and actually fire shots, how the shooter was being framed as a mad leftist (except not really, it seems), and how Trump already had so many pieces in place before election (Project 2025)…
Sure, I was convinced that the near-missed shot to the ear was impossible to fake - what would be the chances? But how about shooting in the general direction of Trump, faking a shot, while a micro-explosive device from the dark spy budgets gets placed on his ear? Tech is always evolving, so I wouldn’t be too surprised if such a device existed. A ripped ear in exchange for being a quasi-martyr and getting lots of support as “God’s chosen survivor” - not a bad tradeoff. Way too many coincidences along the way, to the point it becomes a pattern. Almost befitting a man who lost once and would go to any lenght to make sure he’d not lose ever again.
Anyways, even if somehow something as crazy as this could even happen - and it being found out - what would be the chances of him actually facing consequences for it? That said, I share your hope anyway.
Not only that - and the fact that it’s not a free gift at all, since it’ll absolutely come with strings attached and it’ll cost millions upon millions of taxpayer money to retrofit Trump’s personal Airforce 1 - but Trump also stated:
We give free things out. We’ll take one, too
No, Donnie. Not “we”. Other administrations, and indirectly taxpayers give “free” things out, and not even then, because even foreign aid is a form of securing power and influence abroad - an investment, to speak in your corporate terms. You do not give anything for free, being the so-called “transactional President” you are so proud to be - there’s only grift, free lux planes, free weekly golf trips to Trump courses and tax cuts for your class when you’re the one in the Oval Office. Like you love to claim that “We aid Ukraine”, when the previous administration was the only one to actually help, while as soon as you took office you started undermining and weakening Ukraine’s position in the war.
You mean “The US gives out while I cut all forms of aid and reinforce corruption, but I get to benefit from it more than anyone else.” FTFY. Imagine Obama or Biden, who certainly did not grift even nearly at your level, and at least did their jobs even if imperfectly, going “We give things out, so we’ll get some as well”, as they accepted millions-worthy gifts for their personal use during and after their terms.
Not american, btw, but I know the way I wrote might lead some to that conclusion. Not my intent to lead anyone to wrong assumptions.
Ha ha, yes, such a joker that JD. Totally not a cowardly sleazebeg acting as a “good person” and testing the waters on controversial stuff like a certain orange president likes to do… He’s learning well.
I really hope this is the World Cup with the least international attendance in recent memory (should really be 0, but that’s sadly too unrealistic) . Don’t spend your money in the US, if FIFA wants your fan money they should relocate the world cup to somewhere without threats.

Well duh. What he means is:
The art of the coward. Nothing short of a swift kick to the 'nads will stop a savage and animalistic neanderthal. They can’t be reasoned with, and while it’s a sad reality, it’s still a reality.
If things keep going on the current path, eventually it’s likely to happen, even if I really don’t like that idea and want to be wrong. The best hope at the moment is in the US dealing with its situation internally and regaining at least some sense of normalcy before it gets to a point of true non-return and external retaliaton. With some indirect push by other nations like tariff retaliation and cutting strategic benefits to the US, just enough for the people to wake up and fight the oligarchs, but not so much shock that it triggers an actual war.
And I’m not joking. Trump literally said he rules America, as well as the world. He has stated that he won’t stand for Canada and Europe partnering up to compensate for the lack of the US partnership, and he’s won’t let go of his wet dreams of annexation for several territories. He wants to be remembered as a “great man” in the history books, and not just another footnote billionaire. That kind of ambition is dangerous. Hitler-level dangerous.
For someone like him any excuse is valid. And just like he didn’t take his 2020 election loss lying down, calling it rigged and urging an insurrection, he sure as hell won’t leave the White House without sweat and blood being spilled, now that he’s got his hooves on it again. We are dealing with savages who think themselves superior, and won’t stop willingly.
I was under the impression he was an expert on due process. Like, no one knew due process as well as him. I could swear many people also praised him for it, and that no one had more due processes than Trump.
Heck, the guy knows more about poping than the Pope, so much he’d make the greatest Pope in history.
I’m really starting to think this Trump guy might not be that flawless a human like he claims all the time. 🧐
You could elect a cabinet composed exclusively of orange cats united by a single and solitary shared braincell, and they wouldn’t be as idiotic.
They’d be idiotic, for sure. They’d be entertaining as well. But at least they wouldn’t be malignantly idiotic.
If it was the other way around he’d never let Carney hear the end of it - “Carney, the guy who had to get someone else to quit in order to keep his seat”.
Politicians gonna politics, no surprise there.
Still not a complete shut down on him, since he’s gonna serve in another position. But better than nothing.
More interestingly, many said Waltz (who created the first signal group) would be the one to get the axe first, and not Hegseth (the one actually leaking classified data, twice) - not because he fumbled, but because he publicly admitted it, he admitted he made a mistake.
Curious to see what happens next, but so far the prophecy holds true enough.
The bar is now so low that you could even have a thief, a serial killer or a regular rapist of adults, and it still wouldn’t top having a PDFile Rapist Nepo Baby megalomaniac with authoritarian and racist, genocidal tendencies.
Seriously, worse than him I’d think only the likes of Hitler. And there’s still a lot of time and leeway for him to become worse than Mr. Funny Mustache in the history books, if allowed. Imagine surpassing the worst man in history by triggering mass nuclear destruction across the globe, ending billions of lives, and for what it’d likely be the pettiest of reasons from a small excuse for a human stain.
