What Trump forgot to say:
As I've said from the beginning, ours was not a campaign but rather an incredible and great movement, made up of millions of hard-working men and women (gullible Amercans: äänestäjistä suurin osa on johdateltavissa olevia idiotteeja) .who love their country and want a better, brighter future for themselves and for their family.
We will embark upon a project of national growth and renewal. I will harness the creative talents of our people, and we will call upon the best and brightest to leverage their tremendous talent for the benefit of all. It is going to happen. We are going to repeal Obama care and cut MY taxes!
The country was not ready for a woman president, so we are going to grab for all the pussy we can and put them back in the kitchen, barefoot and pregnant.

Re: The Reign of Trump
I actually don't have a clue. The Donald is such a cypher, I've no idea what his positions actually are. He used to support single payer, gay rights, and was pro-choice. Did he change his positions just to pander to the right wing? Unknown.pErvin wrote:What do you reckon, Lak? What's the next 4 years of Merka going to look like?
It will be interesting, though.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

When does Donald Trump get the nuclear codes - and how easy is it for him to use them?
The worst has happened - Donald Trump has been elected President of the United States.
The man who gets outraged by a tweet now has the responsibilty for authorising the use of nuclear weapons.
It's such a frightening situation it was raised by his opponent Hillary Clinton during the campaign.
Trump has vehemently denied he would recklessly launch nuclear action.
But the question remains; when does he get the nuclear codes and how easy is it for him to use them?
According to the Washington Post, a military aide must stay close to the US President at all times carrying a briefcase known as the 'nuclear football'.
It contains a book known as 'the biscuit' which contains a list of strike options, a list of secure bunkers where the president can be sheltered; instructions for using the Emergency Broadcast System; and a 3-by-5-inch card with authentication codes for the president to confirm his identity.
Bruce G. Blair, a research scholar at Princeton told Bloomberg: "The commander-in-chief’s power is clear: He or she has sole authority to use nuclear weapons.
"‘Before initiating military action, the president convenes a conference with military and civilian advisers in Washington. If travelling, the President is patched in on a secure line. The consultation lasts as long as the president wishes, but if enemy missiles are heading toward the U.S. and the president must order a counterstrike, the consultation may last just 30 seconds."
Trump would use the 'biscuit' card to authorise his identity then order a launch.
They would be sent to military crews who would check them against sealed codes from the National Security Agency - and then they would launch.

Re: Brits welcome Trump Result
Ahhh...the delicious arrogance and condescension..... yes, yes.... it's "naive and gullible" to not want to be part of the EU. It's not just a difference of opinion. It can't be that the brexit voters have a different set of priorities and a different view of how to achieve them. It's just that they are naive and gullible. The people who voted to join the EU and who wanted to remain, they're knowledgeable, worldly and in no way subject to being manipulated for their votes. No! They're informed, educated, and certainly more equipped to decide the fate of their nation than those who hold a different view....rainbow wrote:The rest of the world is still unable to decide which nation is the world’s most naive and gullible, a recent study of all 196 countries found.
With all eyes currently focused on the US Presidential race many ‘remain’ voters are keeping their fingers crossed for a Trump victory in the hope that it will tip the balance in favour of the Americans.

Re: The Reign of Trump
So, a President running on "change" should be a candidate "not too radically different from past administrations..." -- so the whole idea of someone, like, say, Obama, who was such a dramatic change that he was going to be completely transparent, and he would make the oceans stop rising, and all that... that was just nonsense, and what the people were voting for when they screamed like 14 year old Beatles fans was "not too different from past administrations..."?pErvin wrote:Last night it started to become very real in my head. Fuck, if this habitually lying narcissistic man-child wins the race for the most powerful job in the world, what does that say about Western civilisation and how horribly we've got it all wrong over the years? Things must be at real desperation stages if a modern educated society can elect such an utter joke for President. I guess we saw a glimpse of it with Bush Jnr, but man, this is on a whole new level. At least with Bush, the establishment were still able to pull the strings behind the scene so as to result in a President not too radically different from past administrations. No one is going to pull the strings of such an egomaniac as Trump. Honestly, I think if he gets elected, somehow someone connected with the Republican establishment will attempt to have him assassinated. And if Hillary wins, Trump supporters will try and off her. What a fucking shambles.

I mean, what's worse, the total illiterate, ignoramus, moron who won, or the cackling gaggle of douchebags who couldn't muster the ability to defeat him even with 10 times the financing and the entire American media in their pocket and with the moronic candidates own party out to defeat him.....?Crumple wrote:So Trump won.

John Hudak, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution who studies marijuana policy, said this memo was instrumental in allowing Colorado and Washington to set up their recreational marijuana markets. “A lot of people forget that [recreational marijuana markets in] Colorado and Washington were pretty much on hold until the governors there received guidance from the Department of Justice,” Hudak said in an interview.
