Priorities

I remember when Kim Jong Il played a game of golf and got multiple holes in one, and the rest of the holes were birdies. It was witnessed by his bodyguards, so was legit. Honest.

Anyway, that’s Trump’s handicap, that is.

I think it’s terrible that you have compared him to such an obnoxious tyrant…

Applicable either way :joy:

Donald Trump to be allowed back onto Facebook and Instagram - BBC News
"Donald Trump will be allowed back on to Facebook and Instagram, after Meta announced it would be ending its two-year suspension of his accounts.
“The suspension will end “in the coming weeks”, the social media giant said.
In a statement, Nick Clegg, Meta’s president of global affairs, said the public “should be able to hear what their politicians are saying”.
The then-US president was indefinitely suspended from Facebook and Instagram after the Capitol riot in 2021.
The firm had taken action following Mr Trump’s “praise for people engaged in violence at the Capitol”, Mr Clegg said.”

Well done Nick Clegg,this probably ranks up there with the decision to climb into bed with David Cameron FFS

:+1:

Am I right in thinking this decision was solely down to him ?

Whatever , does he (they) really expect anything other than what went before coming out of Trump’s mouth ? He’s been spewing the exact same shit non-stop on Truth (lol) Social ever since.

Before long he’ll be getting kicked off again and Clegg will be having some explaining to do about his serious lack of judgement.

No idea to be honest,either it is or he’s just being a mouthpiece.
A prick either way.

Trumps site is still going :astonished: :rofl: :rofl:

For the original ban Clegg convened a ‘board of experts’ to spare himself any consequences. If I’m not mistaken , this time round the decision was ultimately his.

Trump has an ‘exclusive’ contract with Truth Social meaning his posts have to appear there at least six hours before anywhere else. There’s already been talk of him getting out of that commitment.

Old Teflon Don might be getting more platform space at just the time he needs it. I never believed that he was down and out.

He is going to rise and the Republican Party will fall into line, again.

Marjorie Taylor Greene to be his VP.

Ugh.

(This post represents my fears, but has some plausibility.)

WTF is this piece? A different look from what? Just more of the same - ignoring his unfitness for office in a piece acting surprised that the voters dont seem to appreciate his unfitness for office in the context of the media generally also ignoring it to instead report breathlessly at the normal Xs and Os of his campaign.

This might have had something to do with it ;

A question : If Trump is indicted , as is looking highly likely now in the hush money case in NY , will we get to see him in cuffs doing the perp walk ?

I really hope so… but I doubt it. It will be blacked out windows, zoomed in, on the down low. Unless he wants to make political gain from the images, which might be something he would go for.

But if they do orange jumpsuits large enough :joy: that’s what he needs to be wearing, with his hands and feet chained.

I find it kinda hard to believe too. But on the other hand , isn’t that the entire point of it , to show to the public at large that no man is above the law ?

Just imagine his demeanour and the look on his face were it to really happen !

If it happened he would use it to take the White House again. He would portray it as the deep state coming after the underdog, and whip up a storm of protest that would see him elected again. At which point January 6 would seem like child’s play.

I hate that any form of justice for him might have that sort of threat hanging over it.

He won an election in which “the deep state” actually did meaningfully aid him and still used it to cry that the deep state was out to get him.

If you have two options, and you’re going to be criticized to the point of damaging your institution regardless of which you take, then stop the political calculus and just do the right thing. It was a case of numerous people trying to be too smart and doing the smart thing rather than right thing that got us here in the first place.

If he ever ends up in jail - he will need a specialist hairstylist as his cell mate to keep that thatch of his in place :0)

Looks like we are now in a race to the line for which DA will indict Trump first.

We know Fanny Willis is close in GA over the election interference. But today we get these two stories about separate cases

The Hush Money case from NY that is likely to rise to Federal crimes

The classified documents case
