        If anyone still decides to devote their life to God after this, you’ve really got to start wondering whether this deity is worth your time.

          I can accept that god sends non-believers to hell to suffer for eternity, but guiding a bullet to save the president’s life is where I draw the line!

      At some point, the Epstein files become the distraction. So much horrible shit has happened in this presidency already, with real consequences for innocent people.

      So brushing every bit of that aside to just meme “Epstein files” over and over seems like a GREAT service to Trump.

      Is he in those files? Oh, definitely. Will he be i n the released version? Probably not. So, what will you do? Keep screaming for the RealTM files all through this presidency, letting him off the hook for everything else because “muh files”?

        Great point. But this is a nothing burger because it isn’t corruption it is the export version of the F-35 specifically for shitty alleys this has been in the works since Biden. Israel already has the F-35i and is partners with China, SA is weak bitches that do what they are told. Also China already has the blueprints from espionage.

        True I’ve been wondering if they’re just really busy doctoring all those files before they release them and that’s why they’re stalling.

        Okay, so let’s get fired! Time to standup to this fuck. Or is it better to commit treason in the name of the baby billionaire? What would happen if he fired all the top brass? He would probably lose control of the army.

          What would happen? hes already basically doing it. The answer is stooges are put in their place.

          There aren’t easy solutions, and the solutions most people throw up are like “What if the people I think don’t care suddenly started caring”.

          I didn’t say “comply”, just what the consequences would be.

          These people need to be Nuremberged

        So I guess it’s time for a coup? Or do Americans need to be fucked even harder by daddy Trump?

      Most of the career Defence personnel in the Pentagon with spines have already been forced out through purges.

      The remaining staff are loyal to Trump, or likely have made clear they’ll not risk their jobs raising any concerns or objections.

      I don’t think most of the US realises how fucked they are under Trump 2. This is barely 10 months in of a four year term.

        Indeed… they are still thinking the military will save them because they marched poorly on the parade the Pedo President wanted… oh no, they said, they can march clockwork but did it poorly to show they are not loyal to trump… as the saying goes “the one requisite for people to believe a lie, is that they WANT to believe it”

    He’s basically a whore, selling off anything you want for $$$.

      I honestly and deeply believe that he is not loved by anyone surrounding him.

      It’s almost sad to see a person never knowing what love is. But I cannot help hating him either. He would sell anyone to be just a bit more wealthy. It’s incredible how detached a human being can become.

    And what will be done? Everyone in a position to do something is his toady or doing the same thing. This is the end game of individualism and capitalism.

      I don’t think individualism is bad per se. I’m very left but individualist. It just means I’m not bound to groupthink. I have my own opinions and i temporarily align with political parties but never have unquestioning loyalty to any party or country. If anything that unquestioning loyalty is a hallmark of fascism and not very individualistic. The extreme right is a group cult and people who speak against the group narrative are exiled immediately.

      I’m from Holland so being left is a lot more left than in the US. Yet I can still speak my mind at political meetings even if it’s against the group opinion.

      They do exhibit some individualistic properties but more as a group. But inside the group the forced groupthink is extremely strong.

      And individualism isn’t just about what’s good for a person. I’m individualist but I still care about the environment as it’s important to me and the people i care about.

    Any other president would have been thrown in a cell, but for Donny and his cult it’s just normal business as usual.

      People get mad when I say the US is a paper tiger but the only reason we have such a huge military budget is because of R&D that goes nowhere by a bunch of private companies siphoning government funds plus a fuck ton of military bases that need maintenance funds to give the appearance of having a large military force.

      In reality our tech is years behind that of other countries.

    Time was we would kill traitors. If this is treason, then we should kill him. One person is closer than anyone else to him right now. They could stop all of this.
