US Politics the 2025 trump presidency thread

Jen X said:
We are being told to use a burner phone if we go to the USA. On the news yesterday they showed a boarder crossing with no cars going from Canada to the USA.
But again I'm seeing Americans wanting to move here. Some think they can just come because they're Americans but it doesn't work that way.
Trump killed whatever alliance we had.

In 2004 our family attempted to immigrate to Canada and yea not an easy process at all -- Canada wanted 100k in the bank rule one. It was never easy or cheap. I do believe I know a loophole that basically just involves being there for a certain amount of time without causing any problems (but I am not a lawyer nor do I have the resources) ---

Don't rub dirt in the wound now and we won't when you a state later. (I very much hope im wrong) lol

Jen-x I agree it is not the citizens it is the MAGA folk, but alot of them are citizens. overused metaphor but it will likely fall on the same deaf ears that germans who were not nazi's had to sing too. (We are lucky Canada isn't throwing expats in concentration camps as enemies of they're state right now)

Like we are to well I am unclear whose side we are on what or who we represent anymore. Other than greed.

^That is the reality. I do believe I asked if anyone could name ONE guaranteed ally right now and got nothing. Look up what backs the US dollar "Gov ensures the value of the treasury/dollar BY ENSURING FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC PARTICIPANTS ***TRUST*** THE UNITED STATES WILL **ALWAYS** PAY BACK THE DEBT. Therefor it is considered risk free because the US's creditworthiness is so strong." That is a quote minus my highlighting for the extremely stupid. (prolly not necessary here but I am american I gotta make damn sure everyone understands and explain slow)

So ummm "If we just believe hard enough?" --- Really you guys get your barrels ready. I am very displeased in myself (more my bank *credit union*) tbh for not grabbing gold in oct before this guy was elected. %40 in a year on gold is kind of unheard of (? outside my fields) ASSUMING that is true --- its real bad.

He's announced he'll only make a deal (with the tarifs etc) with the UK if (we) they get rid of all laws protecting the rights of LGBT+ people.
How can anyone think this man isn't evil? He's even trying to force other countries (yes, I know the UK is not a country*) into his nasty, poisonous ways.
I'm 99.999999% sure it won't happen though. Chick-Fil-A have tried to apply to the UK government to open restaurants here on three separate occasions and been given a resounding "absolutely fucking not" even by the more right-wing people because of the fact that they "donate" millions of dollars a year to anti-LGBT organisations.

*NO IT ISN'T. It's a sovereign nation consisting of FOUR countries

YES! that is what I am saying. If we were too stupid to see he was evil and elected him perhaps it is time for darwin to put the scalpel down and use idk a chainsaw. I apologize for the triple post -- I am bad with the quote button, im sorry, combine at will of course.

Yeah, Trumps already lost almost every ally America had. People are majorly boycotting American products in many countries and between the tarifs and threatening to invade Greenland and Canada, the U.S, has already pretty much lost (or is on the verge of losing) Canada, the UK, Australia and all of mainland Europe as allies.
 
One very real concern I have is medication, i.e., my antidepressant and sleeping pill. 🤦🏻‍♀️
We should have been making this stuff here for years.
If there are going to be tariffs, the wise choice would have been gradually increasing them over time. Bleh.
 

A Venezuelan Man Said He Would 'Go Home.' The Trump Administration Sent Him To CECOT.​


"Notably, unlike other detainees sent to CECOT, the Trump administration does not consider Quintero an “alien enemy.” The administration has said that around half of the roughly 250 men sent to CECOT were covered by the Alien Enemies Act"

So about 125 people were sent to a prison despite not being convicted of anything. Keep violating civil and human rights, Trump administration. You really are a dumpster fire filled with hazmat material.

Yes it was stolen. All of the convictions of the “fake” electors and the disbarment of Giuliani for the arguments he made against the 2020 elections. All of the cases the courts rejected…including the supreme courts regarding 2020….it was all because of the deep state and the woke Supreme Court covering up that the 2020 election was indeed rigged and sending ppl to jail on false charges.

MAGA 2028
