Trump is really the best and worst thing to have happened for the modern right, he pretty much rebooted and regalvanized the entire GOP and its supporters after 8 years of being sitting ducks during the Obama years and total DNC dominance and cultural relevance, but he's also just a massive prick in general.

He's a complete piece of shit as a human being but his policies and direction for the country are great.
JD Vance is an amazing human being and if he can carry those policies onward, everything's going to be fine for us.

Trump to Canada: MAID yourself

Trump doesn't seem to be set on a successor president to do what he has roughly been doing, I know Vance is a lock for 2028 just by being the VP, he has been talking more about a potential "third term" instead of ensuring his political legacy continues through the next potential MAGA-endorsed candidate, which tells me that he only really cares about himself first and foremost and doesn't care what happens once he leaves office.

I can't blame him. Trump had 10 rough years to arrive at the same conclusion a lot of us had, that there is literally no one else in politics that can be trusted to make hard decisions. He can't even trust his MAGA gang to stay consistent. (I like Vance, but he's only started talking hard nosed in the last year. I question how long that lasts once Trump is gone.)

Biden revoked nearly every EO Trump issued on the first day. The next Democrat that comes in will do the same, whether in 2028 or later. 2021-2024 taught Trump that he is permanently an enemy to half the country, and nothing he does will make them less vitriolic, litigious, or murderous. He can't build a political legacy in the same way previous Presidents did.

We were all shocked when he came out of Inauguration Day 2025 blasting, but the tenor is completely different from 2017: he's not trying to change the system any more. He's trying to change the country itself, irreversibly,

Would I have to go back to Britain or would I still be Australian? I ask because I've been to England and that place is even gayer and more lib than the coastal cunt cities of Australia.

Apparently you didn't hear about the hate speech law that passed last night

Trump also most likely doesn't want a Teddy/Taft situation where Teddy groomed Taft as a successor and was essentially betrayed policy-wise.

What is ICE supposed to do when the local governments are completely unwilling to cooperate with legal authorities and leftist agitators attack and disrupt operations?

The president invokes the insurrection act and starts arresting politicians, judges and their foots soldiers.

You don't fix blue areas without treating them like the traitors they are.

You guys are NOT gonna like what I have to say

The loop hole is the government can't actually force you to vote guilty on a jury regardless of any amount of evidence they show you. And if you and everyone else shuts up and refuses to explain your reasoning, there is no hope of them getting it overturned. This is arguably a core part of the system and a check against tyranny. Just in this case to anyone with eyes it is being abused to allow for extreme action against something that is clearly not tyranny.

The IRS and FBI and DEA and etc. can look into every bit of the guys life and try to make it hell for other reasons if they want to. But outside of a juryember saying something stupid enough to get a mistrial (and even then if they did say something that should trigger a mistrial good luck getting a judge to overturn a jury not guilty verdict), the guy gets away with it.

If you are white and the defendant is white. Automatic not guilty. Unless there is a white victim that impacted an actual family. (Single white men and women have to prove they arent bug people).

Dont say shit. Dont converse. Dont explain your reasoning. It will either go to mistrial (and lots of DAs dont attempt a second go at it once their legal strat is revealed) or they will come around to say not guilty to go home faster.

Trump is doing another one of his so obvious it seems stupid, but is actually genius tactics. Putting all the focus on himself, creating a false threat to keep him on the front page, taking all the heat off JD. Right now the left is only talking about Trump, JD is pretty much slipping under the radar. Near the end of 2027 Trump will stop this shit and endorse JD, minus three extra years of the media putting JD in their sights. The dems will spend most of 2027/28 whipped into a frenzy over what freak they will nominate that they won't have time to formulate some bullshit to shaft Vance.

Double jeopardy is unconstitutional, and not guilty verdicts don't get appealed.

Just tell the people anyone who murders the faggot will be pardoned. Or alternatively just tell the robed faggots they can suck a dick and they serve no purpose.

In an unrelated but funny political story, today I was talking to my dad and we got in an argument about ICE wearing masks and I said they have to wear masks to protect their identity because you know who else wears masks? Antifa, who want to physically harm them and their families.
He earnestly told me as a matter of fact that there is no such thing as antifa, that it is an urban legend made up by the Trump administration. This stupid idiot suffers so hard from TDS he actually thinks that antifa is some kind of samsquanch that orange man made up too sic ICE on people.
I love my step mom and I don't understand how he was able to pull off marrying her because she's such a nice lady, she shot me the funniest "Get a load of this fucking idiot" look when he said that and I smiled at her and it immediately defused the situation.
I love my dad and everything but he is the perfect example of in ragingly uninformed TDS sufferer. I swear to god at one point I just wanted to look at him and go "Holy shit, you are so fucking stupid now I know why mom left you and I'm so fucking glad she took me with her."
He's a normally intelligent and logical person, but it just goes to show you that people let their feelings get in the way so hard when it comes to Trump that they will believe whatever ridiculous narrative makes him the boogeyman.

lmao just kill your dad. Easiest solution

A friend of mine was flipping out about how Illegals aren't getting habeas corpus, and I'm sorry, I don't think any of them should get a trial. Arrest and deport summarily execute them immedately

Fixed that for you

Yeah but that's the beauty about not being a coastal cunt. 70% of the place is the outback, and it's the size of America. Ain't nobody getting in trouble for hate speech laws in those towns, fella. It's a tradition to police our own.
When they pass gay ass laws we just say good for Brisbane, Sydney, Perth, et cetera. The bogans are still going to have our guns and drink our whiskey and call the abos boongs because fuck them.
What are they going to do, send some representative out to every shit hole in the middle of nowhere to monitor when we call troons faggots? Not fucking likely. I knew kids who literally never went to a day of school and they didn't send somebody out to talk to their parents.
On the other hand England is the size of madison square garden so you're always going to have some Bobby with horrible teeth and a shitty accent following you around and going OI GUV YOU CAN'T BLOODY SAY THAT MATE. WE ON'T ALLO PEOPLE TO SAY MISOGYNISTIC THINGS UNLESS IT'S A BLOODY MUSLIM WHO IS RAPING ONE OF OUR UGLY WHITE WOMEN GOVNA!

In all honesty I do think Trump needs to start targeting the economic side of this harder. He already missed being able to go after the remittance side of this harder but he needs to start targeting mid level employers that make use of illegal labor more. The ICE raids are frankly a slog and should only be a means to an end (that end being buck breaking leftist municipalities which have been proudly flaunting the fact that they defy federal laws for decades now), they're too inefficient by themselves.

You're not going to see this from him because he (and the GOP in general) is funded by large corporations who benefit off the illegal immigrants for pseudo slave labor. He specifically said he's not targeting immigrant workers and only going after the criminal illegals.

It's okay when Clinton does it
