Trump

The thing is the previous administration was not exactly far left.

Also to be clear I am no fan of UFC and can not believe that we live in a world where the president is saying he will put it on the white house lawn?
Yea, but the next one will if they go with AOC and the like.
I'm no fan of UFC also, if it's just private/personal entertainment, hey, that's Trump.
 
I’m a bit confused. Are these people capitalists, communists, socialists or democratic socialists?

I think there is a long long way to go before we see who will be the dem rep. As history tells us the front runners this far out are often, if ever, the ones who get the gig
 
I am going to post a transcript of Trump from today and the video. Again I am not saying he is senile etc as that is impossible to judge without an examination however I would welcome an explanation on this

“You know, when I did the 250, there was nothing I could do. It was 250. It was 250. So I can't see -- that was my baby. The country happened to be 250 years old. But what I did do is during my first term, I got the Olympics, and I got the Great Soccer. You know that whole deal, right? I got -- we call it soccer. They call it football. I got them both. I got the Olympics. First, I got the Olympics, and I got it. I was president. And I said, you know, it's a shame. It's a shame. I got the World Cup, and I have the Olympics, and I did it. And you have no idea. President Obama didn't want to make a call to the Olympics. You know why? Because he went to Switzerland or wherever, and he said, you know, if a president goes to get the Olympics, you have to have a deal. You have to be chosen. He went there, and he came in fourth, so he hated them, I guess. And he was unwilling to make a call, and they called me up. The Democrats called me up, actually, from Los Angeles, and I said, I'll do it. I made the call, and I couldn't get the people off the phone because they were so starved for love, because nobody would call them from -- anyway, we made a deal. I got the Olympics. Then we got the World Cup with Johnny. We got the World Cup, and I got them both, and I looked at my people. I said, isn't it a shame? I got these two, but it wasn't in the next four years. It was right after that, and the one after that. And I got the Olympics, and I got the World Cup, and we also have 250, so that's a pretty wild term. But I got these two things that are incredible. Nobody else could have done it. I'm telling you, everybody wanted it. Nobody could have done it. And I said, and I won't be president, because I'll be president for four more years, but it won't be -- and then they cheated and rigged the election. They rigged -- you know, they don't even turn off the cameras when I say that now, because now they know it's true, too. But they knew it was true before. Remember, the cameras used to immediately turn off. You see all those beautiful red lights go off. Now I can say whatever I want, because then they know it's true. But they knew it was true before. It's fake news. That's why they call it. But you know what? This term is much more consequential than if I had done it the more traditional way. This was slightly harder, believe me. It's slightly more dangerous, because they're criminals on the other side that tried to put your president in jail and went after him, just like they do in third-world countries. And we all beat em together. We beat em because our level of popularity was so high.”

I followed it perfectly. What did Jim Stewartson the AntiFascist think?

I am not fussed about him. There was an emoji at the start however this was not the point.

So you followed it perfectly. And you think that is a sane answer?

For what it's worth, Trump didn’t “get” the World Cup.
The 2026 tournament was awarded to a joint bid by the USA, Canada, and Mexico. The only serious rival was Morocco.

FIFA’s policy excludes continents that hosted the previous two tournaments — so Europe (Russia 2018) and Asia (Qatar 2022) couldn’t bid, which ruled out many traditional powerhouses.

South America didn't enter the race either, as their focus was on hosting the centenary World Cup in 2030, ideally in Uruguay and Argentina, where it all began in 1930.

Trump no doubt had some involvement but as usual, the reality was far less dramatic than the way he told it.


As for the Olympics, again, it’s a stretch to say Trump “brought the Games.”

By 2017, only Paris and Los Angeles were still in the running for the 2024 Olympics. Both bids were strong. Rather than pick one and lose the other, the IOC made a historic move:
  • Paris was awarded 2024,
  • LA was awarded 2028 — simultaneously, a first in Olympic history.

So he’s maybe exaggerating a bit. Wow!! That’s new for a politician. I really don’t understand why some people can’t see any good at all in anything he does?? Quite funny really watching people tangle themselves in knots to find a negative in EVERYTHING.

Am I the only one who read that with that Trump impersonator voice rolling in my head

Saying Trump is a bit of a bull****ter is a long way from saying he is senile.

Like I have said it is not possible to say if he is senile from a distance.

What I am asking is if you think that this sort of rant shows someone who is mentally sharp. Also we all know that every poli tells lies but this is just so bizzare like most of his rally speeches.
 
So he’s maybe exaggerating a bit. Wow!! That’s new for a politician. I really don’t understand why some people can’t see any good at all in anything he does?? Quite funny really watching people tangle themselves in knots to find a negative in EVERYTHING.

The point I was making is that there were rightful questions over Biden and his ability to do the job. Trump talks like this on a daily basis and that is not an area of concern for you?

The ramble rant that ends up going into a stolen election rant again?

Also do not get me started on the irony of the "free speech" party and how he treats any news organisation (including fox) that dares to ask him a tough question
