America begged for this. See the results of your MAGAt neighbors / friends / family voting for Trump again here...

I get that you bumped a thread without adding any content.

It's ok and against forum rules.
Rory bumped the thread because it fell off the front page. Dummy. Check the time signature. :)
 
Early prediction:

*The new administration will try to go scorched earth - and potentially succeed - on various areas of government & other entities / policy, at a level not attempted during 2016-2020
*They will (finally) warn that an "adjustment period", a.k.a. financial or other chaos / hardship, should be expected & tolerated for the "short term" before things get better
*The people who voted for them will not, in fact, have the patience or tolerance for said period (though they may lie and say they do)
*The people who didn't vote for Trump will immediately point at everyone who voted for the chaos and say "You morons get 100% of the blame this time around."

Police report reveals new details from sexual assault allegation against Trump’s defense secretary nominee

CNN

A California woman told police that Trump Cabinet pick Pete Hegseth physically blocked her from leaving a hotel room, took her phone, and then sexually assaulted her even though she “remembered saying ‘no’ a lot,” a police report obtained by CNN shows.

The 22-page report, released by the city attorney’s office of Monterey, California, on Wednesday night in response to a public records request, lays out the competing narratives of what happened in new detail – including conflicting accounts of how intoxicated Hegseth and the woman were, and descriptions of video surveillance showing some of their movements that night.

I think we're already well past being shocked by anything that comes up in connection with a Trump pick.

Mexico warns Trump tariffs would kill 400,000 US jobs, threatens retaliation


MEXICO CITY (Reuters) -Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said on Wednesday Mexico would retaliate if U.S. President-elect Donald Trump followed through with his proposed 25% across-the-board tariff, a move her government warned could kill 400,000 U.S. jobs.

"If there are U.S. tariffs, Mexico would also raise tariffs," Sheinbaum said during her regular morning press conference, in her clearest statement yet that the country was preparing possible retaliatory trade measures against its top trade partner.

Mexican Economy Minister Marcelo Ebrard, speaking alongside Sheinbaum, called for more regional cooperation and integration instead of a war of retaliatory import taxes.

"It's a shot in the foot," Ebrard said of Trump's proposed tariffs, which appear to violate the USMCA trade deal between Mexico, Canada and the U.S.

Ebrard warned the tariffs would lead to massive U.S. job losses, lower growth and hit U.S. companies producing in Mexico by effectively doubling the taxes they paid. "The impact on companies is huge," he said.

Trump is going to get 25th’ed if he keeps it up. Pissing off poor people is one thing, but this affects the donor class. Not everyone is on Elon’s payroll, and these are the guys who probably see Elon’s power play as the biggest threat to their own supremacy.
 
Good morning!

Congress avoids a shutdown but leaves 'a big mess' for Trump and Republicans in 2025

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/co...es-big-mess-trump-republicans-2025-rcna184899
Normal Republican spin on what happened:
~~~
“It’s going to be awesome. You know why it’s going to be awesome? Because now we know how to work together,” Van Orden said just before the speaker’s Plan B went down in flames in the House.

"Van Orden’s fellow Wisconsinite, Sen. Johnson, was less bullish about smoothly plowing through the early part of the 2025 agenda.

"“We got a big mess on our hands, no doubt about it,” Johnson said. “That’s why I’m trying to underpromise and hopefully overdeliver.”"
~~~

Trump, as 'the great communicator,' is part of the mess on our hands–there is no doubt about that.
 
This is on you, MAGAts:

Trump Falsely Suggested New Orleans Suspect Was an Immigrant

The president-elect said on social media that he was right about fearing criminals on the other side of the border. Officials later identified the suspect as a U.S.-born citizen and Army veteran.

See! That's the problem! You let illegals in to become citizens, and they form sleeper cells, and several generations later, they rise up against you and bite you in the ass or sleep with porn stars, or... run you over with a rented pickup truck.

Same thing with Trumpf's lineage! We let that German bastard and draft dodger into the country on a visa and what did he do? The grandfather opened brothels in Alaska during the gold rush, made out like a bandit, ripped off GI's with cheap housing during the war, and later spawned the seed of the devil and two generations later - the felon Donold is off the radar and free to carry out an old Nazi espionage in an overthrow plot and insurrection. Immigrants, I tell ya, should never have been let off the Mayflower. :nana:

Sounds kinda MAGA. Right?
 
Reducing the breeding habits of liberals isn't necessarily a bad thing. :)
Most liberals don't breed very much. There are several reasons. 1. They seem to crave killing the their unborn. 2. They think that men can get pregnant. They must be confusing pooping with giving birth. 3. Now the blue hair babe's are not letting their liberal boys screw them as "punishment" for Trump getting elected. So, the minimal birth rate from liberals is a blessing.
