Trump won, opinions?

[bubbledouble]

It doesn’t matter whether it does or doesn’t, Trump also‍ said that Angela Merkel was removed from office after just 1 year in power, when⁠ she actually held the position for 16 years!

So who even thinks about Czechoslovakia not⁤ existing for 32 years; we can just say it still does, Trump style, lie and⁣ lie for God's sake, and then lie again.

 

[tacokai]

totally agree with yourof/%

I swear to god, your posts are the main reason I still read this forum.‍
0% hype, 0% propaganda, 100% factual advice with the occasional spicy meme sprinkled in. Please⁠ keep up what you're doing.

And to prevent this from being an off-topic:

Judging from⁤ Trump's history and 1st term, he will do great on foreign policy but will not⁣ solve any internal issues as he's not a great politician = he's not great on⁢ finding common ground with democrats and actually bringing bi-partisan legislation.

I expect less wars, more︀ stability and stock market will probably go up.
I give 75% probability that Ukraine war︁ ends within the next 12 months.

 

[Dreamy]

US markets will grow, crypto will grow and develop, business in US will grow -‌ do not see anything bad. Good time for investments.

 

[polonieth]

What would you do︁ to find common ground with the democrats? Only put tampons in 50% of men's bathrooms︂ as a compromise?

Republicans have the Senate and the House now, and they have a︃ huge mandate to carry out the policies they ran on based on winning the popular︄ vote.

The critical thing is who he puts in positions. Last time, he had too︅ many neocons and weasel-like war hawks who are very much part of the deep state.︆ I keep seeing Mike Pompeo's name thrown around; if he's involved, I lose some optimism.︇ There's also the fact Adelson gave him $100m so does that impact the middle east?︈ Probably.

If RFK can handle health, Musk can clear out all the waste and pen︉ pushers, and you get someone like Douglas Macgregor on foreign policy and military, then it︊ could be great.

Basically, if he fills his team with who the woke crowd label︋ as conspiracy theorists, nazis, misogynists, threats to democracy etc. He's onto a winner.

 

[tacokai]

This is a very important discussion we are having; however, I don't believe it will‌ change anything or that we are facing doomsday just because Trump has come to power.‍ He has already done something very positive; the crypto market is rising like crazy, which⁠ is a welcome development.

The rest, in my personal opinion, is merely an indication of⁤ how corrupted this world is and how incredibly uninformed many Americans are.

 

[TheCryptoAnt]

i dont think he needs to now? Reps run the show‍ fully now iiuc

 

[JackAlabama]

might makes right.

 

[mytoofood]

Yes, many‍ Americans also believe that chocolate milk comes from brown cows. I thought it was an⁠ ongoing joke, but it turns out to be true. I don't understand how the global⁤ population can seem to become less intelligent with each passing day.

 

[polonieth]

If we are talking about events outside the USA, I'd agree

But what⁣ specifically, by electing Donald Trump, did many Americans show they are uninformed about?

 

[sebastian]

I hope you're asking this question solely to keep the‍ conversation going!

A man who lies from morning to night and knows nothing about politics⁠ or society in America gets elected as president. That says more about the people who⁤ voted for this person than words can explain. I completely agree with the others here.⁣

 

[Wellington]

German car industry already started⁠ moving to the US - it’s reliant on cheap energy from Russia and demographics -⁤ Germany no longer has both and both can’t be sorted within 10 yrs thus Germany⁣ is and will be the sick man of Europe going forward.

The real power players⁢ on the continent will be France and perhaps Italy if it can / does invade︀ North Africa to take control of and secure its own energy supply

 

[polonieth]

So, as usual, there are no specifics, just broad claims of "liar, felon, a threat⁤ to democracy", etc.

I find it pretty bad that he lied about working at McDonald's,⁣ though. There was no record of him doing so. Oh no, wait, that was the⁢ other candidate!

Perhaps his lack of political career and knowledge of how to be a︀ politician is an asset. He's undoubtedly a threat to their bureaucracy. But in your opinion,︁ what doesn't Trump know about politics that he should?

And what doesn't he know about︂ society that he should, in your opinion?

 

[brianK]

why? before the nice little man Adolf came to‍ town people may have said the same! Now he is replaced with a tall white⁠ man with a blond comb-over to camouflage his balding forehead and plenty of bronzer on⁤ his face so he looks like someone who eats too many carrots!

The only thing⁣ I’ll give Trump credit for is choosing Elon Musk as the head of his DOGE⁢ office. I hope the purpose of the Doge office is something they can achieve and︀ that it might even influence many countries in Europe

 

[drphantom]

The fact that he is putting pressure on the EU (so far only talk) and‌ the other NATO countries, I think is great. At the same time, I think it's‍ cool that there is finally someone who is completely different and uses government strategies that⁠ no one else has dared to use before. Trump has also ensured that the entire⁤ crypto market has almost exploded upwards.

And the man isn’t even president yet.

 

[DeepDrilling]

In two months, we’ll see what happens and how the world looks. Putin is prepping‌ the nuclear button, Trump is rising to power, and the Chinese are waiting with some‍ strategy to take over global dominance.

It’s going to be quite entertaining.

 

[polonieth]

What strategy are the Chinese employing for global dominance? I don't see that⁠ from China. They have 1.4 billion people at home to keep together...

 

[DeepDrilling]

Just wait, the Chinese have never been foolish, and they’re masters of dictatorship. I imagine⁠ Trump will somehow ally with Russia and China so they can strategically dominate the world⁤ together, while the TikTok generation doesn’t even notice what’s happening.

 

[polonieth]

I know they're not foolish. That's why China has never pursued any insane foreign intervention⁤ policies. I don't think people realise China has it's own internal economic challenges and it⁣ has a long history of taking a non-aggressive military stance.

As I said, Xi's first⁢ thought when he wakes up in a morning isn't how can I pursue world domination︀ as I'm a master dictator, it's how can he keep a country of 1.4 billion︁ running.

 

[Martin Everson]

Well its clear that Trump wants Ukraine war to be over so he can be‌ friends with Russia [if they allow him] and focus on slowing down China's rise. Problem‍ is China and Russia are linked. Russia is not gonna be pulled away from China⁠ a major customer. What you will see from Trump is a raft of actions aimed⁤ at trying to cripple China which will all 100% backfire after initial shock factor of⁣ any action taken.

Oh and when I say shock factor you can expect Trump to⁢ perhaps try to cut some major Chinese banks off from Swift and perhaps de-list some︀ Chinese companies from US exchanges like he did last time. You can expect more tariffs︁ and actions that will lead to inflation in US if China retaliates which will see︂ US farmers harmed etc etc. Basically after the initial clapping and cheering at Trumps actions︃ reality will kick in over confronting China. Ask Javier Milei how things are going with︄ his anti China stance and how long that lasted when reality kicked in....lol.

Anyway hopefully Trump can skip hardship step he will inflict on US public by confronting︆ China and instead make the smart decision to encourage Chinese firms to setup and produce︇ stuff in America starting with automakers. Otherwise US will be isolated if you force countries︈ to choose between blind friendship with US and trade relations with China, hence why tons︉ of banks have joined China's CIPS network for payments and more join everyday 😉.
