Ding Dong.....the US Politics Thread (Part 2)

To me, Melania is the cash channel to Baron… I’m still convinced the Orange Ogre is set on creating a Trump dynasty so he can believe his name lives on forever… We should be thankful at least, he is not 25yrs younger than his present 78yrs of age…!

Or that Baron is not 25 years older.

The best hope is that there is enough time between now and when B.T is old enough to run for presidency that people will have realised just how much damage his orange Ogre-father has done to the US and they lynch him out of spite.

On the night of his inauguration, Donald Trump is visited by 3 ghosts.

Early in the night, FDR appears. Trump asks him, “How can I make America great again?” FDR replies, “Think only of the people; do not make laws based on hatred, bigotry, or with the thought of lining your own pockets” Trump’s face sours “FAKE NEWS!” he screams and FDR disappears. Trump falls back to sleep.

A few hours later, he is awakened by George Washington’s ghost. Trump asks, “How can I make America great again?” Washington replies, “I would suggest you never tell a lie”, which infuriates Trump. He screams for his bodyguards but Washington is already gone.

Around 3 in the morning, he is visited by the ghost of Abraham Lincoln. Again, he asks, “How can I make America great again?”

Lincoln thinks for a bit and says, “Go to the theater.”

All these rich, white men talking about ‘making America great again’… :see_no_evil:

History teaches that everytime someone starts talking like that (referring to a so-called ‘golden time’ in the past, and wanting to get back to that) it ends up in tatters.

I completely expect the same to happen this time again. After all, these guys offer nothing new, only going back to old receipts which are completely past it. Hopefully we all won’t suffer too much because of these fools, fingers crossed…

Are you at the inauguration? @SBYM is in Manchester again. So we need you to come through.

I have moved to paradise, away from the madness that is the DMV. Unfortunately, it is 30 degrees in paradise this morning, and I am about to join in the MLK day march here.

When I was a college freshman, my philosophy professor invited me to his home for dinner. Joan Baez was attending and I worshipped her. After much deliberation, I declined because I had to study for a calculus exam (didn’t help). I have never forgiven myself. Years later, my daughter called me as a high school frosh and asked if she could walk out of class for a march in 2016. I said of course as long as you know what you’re marching for. She came home bubbling with excitement and told me Joan Baez led the march. :rage: If she shows up at your march, I am going to be pretty upset and no one wants that.

So we are inaugerating someone today who has pledged to do everything he can to damage and demolish democracy in this country - yet its all just so normal. Former presidents there smiling, shaking hands etc.

Just a nonsense. Non of these people care.

I think that is an unfair comment on the former Presidents. They are prioritizing a return to normality for the peaceful handover of power in transition, which is understandable after the events of four years ago.

There is not much they can do in terms of democratic legitimacy. The American people chose the sequence of events that is about to unfold, whatever it turns out to be.
