The American people, investors and the world are waiting to see which of Trump’s dictatorial statements or promises were simply lies to get elected and which are policies to be rolled out. I have some guesses.
Mass deportation- Lie to get elected. The Oligarchs need illegal immigrant labor and even Trump’s businesses thrive on it.
10% tariffs- This will be enacted in some form. This will be the way Trump can extort money for himself by exempting pals that give him a financial reward.
Jailing enemies within. This will not be implemented right away. Probably in year 2 because the smarter people around Trump will see that this could produce revolt.
1 year jail for anyone burning flag? Lie
Nationwide Abortion ban? Lie to get elected. He does not need anyone’s vote anymore and that was the only reason Trump took action on abortion. He doesn’t care about abortion personally.
Letting Russia take Ukraine. Yes. This will happen. (International Crime syndicate)
Leaving or defunding NATO. Yes. This will happen. (International Crime syndicate)
Balancing the budget, eliminating national debt. Lies to get elected.
Pardon’s for Jan 6 criminals. Yes. This will happen.
Installing loyalists throughout the federal govt to replace professional lifetime civil servants. Yes. This will happen.
Firing Generals and not replacing them? Yes. This will happen.

He is deranged. I wonder what his name was before the change?
Bagofsharks was writing about Jack Smith (who was born John Smith), not JD Vance. Try to keep up.

Kamala Harris was a terrible candidate and deserved to lose. Let's focus on the President-elect.
We do have a Trump thread, ya know. Maybe you should stay there?

Hey look, we're on the other side of the election, and the Trumpers are demonstrating the EXACT SAME intellectual deficiencies. Namely, that the winners of an election are by definition "right." So.....can we go ahead and test that?
Go ahead and strain your brain to think of, say, the last 4 or 5 Democratic presidents. When they were elected, you decided and admitted that you were "wrong"? You considered Obama and the Democrats to be "right" for 8 years a piece under Obama and Clinton, for example? I'm sure of it, right?
Incredible logical failure and inconsistency.
Imagine Trevor's LONG list of Trump's legal, civil, ethical, and moral failures. Lists like that are nearly or completely 100% verifiably accurate (whether you or 70-million something want to believe it, or not). And they didn't change one iota as a result of last night's election.
We simply learned more unfortunate things about our citizenry. Sad, sad day.
You bring up Clinton, so I will start there. I did not like the election of Clinton. I also did not like the scandals revolving around the guy. However, I tell people he was a pretty good POTUS in how he governed. He rejected the far left, and it worked for him. Sadly, the modern dems don't have the sense to do that.

It is the Christian way. FJB stands for what? Well they want to swear but that would be unchristian so let’s just abbreviate!

It actually stands for "forget Joe Biden".
And yes, I do find amusement in seeing liberals cry. I live in an incredibly woke city and I'm tired of the governance. Liberals' depressed reactions after Tuesday are incredibly amusing to me.

Just take solace in the fact that their life revolves around scouring TikTok/social media to make a compilation video of people crying or upset.. What a sad existence.

You are an open book. Nothing complex about your thinking process that is hard to figure out.
See! we agree!

Firing Generals and not replacing them? Yes. This will happen.I largely agree with this. I also expect Thomas and Alito to retire very soon so that Trump and his Senate can rubberstamp in some 40-something loyalists to ensure at least three decades of control on the Supreme Court.
On paper, he should leave as an incredibly unpopular president which would make whatever man the Democrats nominate the favorite. However, the GOP has been reshaping education where they can and this, coupled with right wing radicalization on social platforms, is indoctrinating young people today at an alarming rate. It’s a tough tide to turn against.

This election has taught us that social media and using it to change minds and brainwash people is way, way more powerful than anyone imagined. MSM has no power.
Nationwide the abortion amendments showed by and large that the GOP policies remain wildly unpopular with voters. Yet none of that Translated to a Trump defeat. In fact, we have seen in two election cycles that Trumpism (election denial, etc, etc) gets beaten badly at the ballot box with anyone that tries it unless your name is Trump. Trumpian sychphants all got clobbered. Trumpism only works for Trump.
It is a cult of personality that is shaped by social media. It is hard to see if it would continue with JD Vance if Trump decided to retire and give him the wheel.

Trump doesn't want an abortion ban. Abortion harms Trump FAR less than other Republicans.
Be honest - do you seriously think the NY billionaire who has probably paid for an abortion himself truly wants to ban it? No. And that's why abortion doesn't harm him as much.
