    Second Amendment comes to mind. Gun nutters on the streets shooting to protect themselves from a 'rouge' government, which they will surely see if it were the Dems, so it could end up like Syria.

    Reality is that Trump is probably the best idiot they have ever had. He's so dopey that the people can't blame their president for their problems because they know he's just not capable of it. It's all their own fault
    He might be just trying to protect himself from the consequences of second amendment by letting them have their way.


    Personally, I can't wait to see him get re-elected. Shit is going to get really crazy as the extreme left wing have special cry in sessions in public parks and demand safe zones that extend to the entire upper half of Manhattan and the entire state of Philadelphia.
    Careful what you ask for. The only reason for not starting WW3(averted twice in the last minute) was his chance of being re elected, unless he can change the constitution so he can always stay president until he becomes bored with it... or dies of CoVid.

    Are you saying the nutters are communists ?

    Buy cheap and pay often, - there is no substitute for stupidity.

    You wipe your bum after each crap, why don't you clean your teeth after every meal?

    There is no shame in being uneducated nor in being stupid.
    The true shame lies in knowing that you are and doing nothing about it.

    When I said Syria, I kind of meant a civil war in general but with the gun nutters: Nationalist extremist rebels fighting AGAINST a hypothetical rouge left wing Government: the Democrats, if Hillary had won and tried to tell them to adhere to social distancing measures like we have in Australia.

    But currently it are only the images of the Red Necks roaming the streets of US cities with their huge high powered firearms that remind me of images I have seen in war torn countries like Syria.

    You do know that rouge means red.

    Or did you mean rogue as in wild or feral ?

    I see commander Bone-spurs has told reporters he is taking Hydroxychloroquin despite early tests showing at best it does nothing and at worst, it can kill people with even mild heart conditions.

    I personally don't even believe him. He is old, overweight, doesn't exercise, and almost certainly has hypertension. No doctor in his right mind would approve this drug for someone with those criteria.

    I agree.

    However, Trump rarely listens to specialist advice and even more rarely does he follow it, so it's possible he has 'ordered' the doctor to prescribe the drug.

    Perhaps he's even washing it down with a glass of bleach/disinfectant.

    Yes, he (and his ilk) have this amazing default position of; 'If scientists said it, it must be wrong'.

    You could probably take that further to be; 'If many highly-accredited professionals, acknowledged to be leaders in their field said it, it must be wrong. Because a random Youtube video that I watched, said so.'

    Sorry for my dyslexia.
    However I would have thought that it is obvious what I meant from the context but now when I read it again I did mention RED Necks but they are in my view highly wild and feral.

    You forgot firing everyone who disagrees with the 'Boss', hence the likely reason why his doctor approved of prescribing his hydroxychloroquine and no questions asked.

    His success attributes to today's Sheeple who want a Dictator.
    This also works well for China, NK, Philippines, Russia, etc.

    Democracy is dead, was nice when it lasted but most people didn't get it, just as much as science is far too complicated for the masses.
    They adore Dictators who make simple demands and have total disregard to those who question them or the likely consequences.
    Makes them look powerful.
    That is why leaders of religions and sects also find so many followers.
    All the same formula.

    This all in line with another modern world trait: Living for the moment.
    What I say and do today only counts, forget the past unless it can be twisted and used against those who oppose us and don't EVER think of the future(consequences of my actions).

    Despite his age Trump is a modern man, he even uses Twitter but maybe he should move on to Snapchat.

    Let's compare successes to failures:

    Successes:

    • 11 Hotels - all but three losing money since Trump became president
    • 17 Golf courses - majority losing money since Trump became president
    • 3 High-rise buildings
    • The Apprentice
    • First Step Act - modest reforms to the criminal justice system
    • Tax Cuts and Jobs Act - tax reform that overwhelmingly benefited large corporations and high-income earners
    • Appointed 189 conservative judges to federal court including two supreme court justices


    Failures:
    • Trump Airlines
    • Trump Models
    • Trump Vodka
    • Trump Mortgage
    • Trump Board Game
    • Trump Casinos - multiple bankruptcy's, nearly crippling Atlantic City in the early 90's
    • Trump Steak
    • Trump Magazine
    • GoTrump.com - holiday search
    • Trump University
    • Charlottesville - claimed neo-nazis were "very fine people"
    • Migrant family separation
    • Building the Mexico wall
    • Replacing the Affordable Care Act
    • Iran - restarted nuclear program because Trump pulled out of nuclear deal
    • Syria - abandoned close allies fighting ISIS
    • Ukraine impeachment - acquitted by Republican controlled senate, but plainly guilty of charges
    • Covid-19 pandemic - needs its own list


    Trump personally has never filed for bankruptcy, but Trump's businesses have filed for bankruptcy 6 times, leaving a trail of contractor debt and foreclosure. After the 2008 GFC no American bank would lend Trump money due to a long history of repayment defaults and a propensity to sue when asked to settle up. But in 2010 despite defaulting on $640 million owed to Deutsche Bank, they mysteriously lent him enough money from one department to pay off the loan owed to another department of the same bank, and then even more bafflingly, increased his line of credit by another $50 million. Deutsche Bank has been convicted by American and European regulators for laundering huge amounts of Russian 'dark' money at around the same time. So although appearing 'successful' on the outside, Donald Trump's business history has been lurching from one disaster to another. Much the same as his political career.

    Where I do see wrong is him encouraging the masses(again) with his actions to do something that is not proven.
    This encourages the sheeple to self medicate and there ARE serious side effects if a person has other underlying medical issues.

    There are trails and observations where the CoVid mortality after the use of hydroxychloroquine had INCREASED, while others showed no benefit.

    Again personally, I don't see anything wrong with his doctor prescribing it to HIM!

    The leftie media of course Ignore the irony every time they scream that there has been no trials that prove the Hydrowhatever helps with corona Virus.
    Of course there Fking haven't! It's too soon for any trials to prove anything!

    They of course brainwash the sheeple to forget the fact there haven't been any trials that prove it doesn't help either!

    They also make out its so deadly ignoring the hundreds of thousands of people that take it every day to keep them alive.

    If Trump said water was wet, The fktards in the media would piss and moan about that and try to make out he was Racist/ dangerous / whatever they could throw at him to promote their hatred agendas which is all they are interested in.

    There has been early studies. The findings are that it makes no difference one way or the other, to people with COVID-19. Doesn't help, doesn't hinder.

    It's used to treat Lupus symptoms. Hardly needed "to keep them alive". Many Lupus sufferers can't take hydroxychloraquine because of heart disease. Luckily there are other, better medicine than hydroxychloraquine that don't have the side-effects.

    Sure. You keep telling yourself that. Sounds like if a scientist or journalist said the world was round, you would argue it's flat.
