Everything you didn't want to know about Trump and were not afraid to ask

[Animavore]

I really don't know how I'm going to explain Trump to future generations. I'm not sure how I can tell them about the time the World's most powerful nation made an absolute fool of themselves on the World stage. How do I even begin to describe how over 60 million people collectively embarrassed and humiliated their country?

The US has form in this arena. Ronald Reagan got elected then re-elected, after all. Admittedly, Trump's astoundingly ham-handed approach to the presidency almost makes Reagan look like a decent president in comparison, but the fact is that the American electorate has regularly shown itself to be not particularly astute in its choices for chief executive.

On the other hand, a steady diet of self-aggrandizing lies can eventually prove unsatisfactory. The UN General Assembly isn't the only entity that's balking at swallowing bombastic baloney.

'Trump Says His Accomplishments Are Great. The Public Isn’t Buying It.'

As he gears up for a difficult midterm election, President Donald Trump has campaigned on a record of massive accomplishments: a nuke deal with North Korea, the death of Obamacare and a sweeping tax reform package that has benefited America’s middle class.

Much of it is Trumpian embellishment. And a new Ipsos poll conducted for The Daily Beast shows that the public, simply put, isn’t buying it.

In the poll, only six percent of respondents said they believe North Korea had “destroyed its stockpile of nuclear weapons in the last year;” 68 percent said the country had not; and 26 percent said they don’t know. Trump has claimed that North Korea is “no longer a nuclear threat” though international inspectors say it is still building its arsenal. Those who have not bought the president’s line include his fellow Republicans, 66 percent of whom said that North Korea had, in fact, not destroyed its stockpile.

6% of the U.S. believes North Korea destroyed their nukes? Why?

6% of the U.S. believes North Korea destroyed their nukes? Why?

Because they had been manipulated into believing that NK had any "nukes" to destroy to begin with.

Lol, so Trumpy's correct, they're not a threat?

OK that would be pretty funny.

Someone eventually gets nuked right? I've always felt like it's inevitable.

There's Pence, do you really wantthat for poor Merka?

Never fear, the question about who gets nukes is whether Iran will manage to glass Tel Aviv (muslims would never do that to Jerusalem), or if the israelis will do it to some Iranian location as a show of meaning business...

They are not a threat because NK never had nuclear warheads that they could pack into a missile and dispatch in the general direction of an enemy. I'm sure North Korean scientists were working on making a nuclear bomb small enough to fit (and I bet they still are), but even if they eventually manage, success is still a few years into the future.

Then there is the matter of the missiles themselves. There has been a lot of talk what NK's rockets are capable of. "could reach most of the contiguous US" and stuff like that. On examination of actual test flights the picture looks not as threatening. Here are data regarding the three most successful ones undertaken to date:



How those missiles might have performed with a full payload is another matter.

Turns out, Republicans are in favor of states' rights only when it helps them keep the gays and the darkies and the womenfolk down.

It is the level of respect shown to republican voters which is damaging the democrats chances the most.

They don't even have a platform to offer this time around, except 'Fuck Trump'. And that is their MOST creative minds at work.

The hilarious thing isn't the fact that he will be reelected in 2020, the really hilarity will be when his son wins a future presidency. I do hope I still get to read your pearls of wisdom when that happens.

[Svartalf]

Well, people who could nominate, and then actually elect, the like of frump deserve a negative amount of respect, if that were possible.

You're the one in charge of explaining current events to future generations?

So you are suggesting a one-party system?

Very 'left' of you.

[Svartalf]

NO, I'm suggesting a system with fairly educated, responsible voters, where a toxic personality like frump would never have had a snowball's chance in hell, also, I'd rather advocate MULTI party systems, one party and two party ones are both toxic... (and I'm thinking of Britain as well as of the USA when I say two party is toxic... frack, even France lived on a mostly 2 party system from 1981 to 2002, and the third party candidate got to the 2nd round so disgusted were the voters with the official 2 main ones, nearly opening a fascist era in this fair land)
