OFFICIAL LRC President Donald Trump SECOND TERM Thread

So True!
Has Trump ever taken any responsibility for anything that occurs during his time in office?

“One of the paradoxes of Trump's conception of the presidency: he somehow requires absolute and unchecked power, but also seems to think of himself as a passive, tut-tutting observer when the government over which he has that absolute power fails in any way.”

this guy is DEI. He has no experience. He was hired for his looks and TV stardom.

Melania is a migrant. Can we throw her *ss in Gitmo?

@JoJoFromJerz
We have a reality game show host for a “president” and reality tv star for a “transportation secretary” and a tv news anchor for a “defense secretary”.
So things are going about as well as expected.

Quick reminder that there were five times as many military deaths by "hostile action" under Trump (first term) than under Biden.

but it's ok, the newbie trans sec may know nothing about aviation but he has a good team left behind from Biden, right?

Du-oh! no he doesn't!

On your 2ND DAY, Trump:
1. Fired the head of the Transportation Security Administration
2. Fired the entire Aviation Security Advisory Committee
3. Froze hiring of all Air Traffic Controllers
4. Fired 100 top FAA security officers

Loyalty to the Turd King is the only criteria.

In relation to Jan 6th then yeah we all did.

Who's the 'Camp Auschwitz' guy and other alleged Jan. 6 neo-Nazis that Trump pardoned?

@usatoday

Photos of the bearded Robert Keith Packer wearing a hoodie with the Nazi SS skull and Auschwitz 'Work Brings Freedom' slogan went viral after Jan. 6

Hi Ginamator!

This guy really makes an astute observation about Trump when you think of it.

All politicians tend to take credit when good happens and deflect when bad occurs. But Trump is very unique. He literally comes out and tells the world that he demands all this power and absolute control over all things in his domain but then has the ability to communicate in a way that the public buys into the narrative that he has nothing to do with anything bad and has no responsibility whatsoever..

He did this with Covid where he wanted to be fully involved in all aspects and even the press conferences. Yet today nobody holds Trump accountable for our countries abysmal covid response. Think about his fraud trials. He has said all business decisions go through him but when historic and systemic fraud is discovered the public believes he is just too much of a big shot to have known anything about it. Think about his Hush money trial. He had a meeting with Pecker and Cohen outlining this election fraud scheme and business fraud plan but now the public believes the narrative that he could have had no way of knowing what his CFP was doing or his own personal lawyer. Even though Trump signed the checks.

I gotta give Trump credit for this. I can’t think of anyone else that has been able to get the public to buy into this. They usually put two and two together.

. . . is the only criterion, dear.

Yglesias made a similar and good observation on this after cap'n bogey started complaining about the plane crash.

I've said it a million times before...trump should have been a talk show host, not a politician. Spanky would have been much happier with that job. I think that was his plan but then he screwed up and won the election so he had to follow through. He never thought he'd win...he was just getting ready for his talk show.

One of Trump’s weirdest bits from Covid was constantly acting like someone else was the president and he’s just a prominent guy raising questions about what the government is doing.

One thing I've been wondering...

do elected Rs REALLY think the Biden DOJ was politicized...or are they just being lying politicians?

I'm listening to some of the patel hearing and it's just one lie after the next from Rs, claiming a politicized FBI.

I'm so curious about what trumpers' brains are like. They live in a false world of lies...do they know that or not?

I think they know they are lying but they take their cues from the greatest liar of our times, spankypants mc epstein, and they feel instructed to lie all the time. Elected Rs think they are supposed to lie. That that's how politics are done. Just make up whatever you want to be true, say it, and never show weakness.

That's trump politics and the US electorate approves of it. So even US senators do that now. Shame on everyone.

Confirm Tulsi now, she's a patriot who stands for America.

MAGA!

The crash has nothing to do with anyone who is in Office, past or present. Your level of sheer ignorance just went up 10 fold. I mean what the h*ll is wrong with you? Your girl lost, deal with old man and cope. Or, cry harder.

Agip. The "Biden weaponization of the justice" claim is a variation of the following:

“If the facts are against you, argue the law. If the law is against you, argue the facts. If the law and the facts are against you, pound the table and yell like hell”
― Carl Sandburg

Pounding the table of the wrongfulness of everything (while excusing Trump's blatant criminality) creates a huge smoke screen to allow power hungry to stay in power. And that is the bottom line.

Of course, The Trumpets believe because they love daddy Trump and it is a cult. If he says it is it true.

Trump's news conference was beyond embarrassing. Worst I have ever seen. To politicize it like he did -wow.

Was Trump right to back down?
