Current Affairs The Would Be Emperor Has No Clothes (aka POTUS 47)

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

The Trump supporters on here have gone quiet. Funny that. Considering none of them actually live in the USA and have to live with these consequences.

Could be that some Democrat senators approve the RFK jnr choice at Health.

It'll be interesting seeing Trump v Big Pharma if he sticks by RFK. Maybe he's hoping the senate will save him the headache.

He stays crsazt=y things on certain issues, but I also think there''s stuff taken out of context that makes the whole package look crazy.

The US food and drink giants will be his biggest critic.

RFK jr has done good ideas - problem is he has some tin foil hat ones too, means whatever good he does will almost certainly be far outweighed by the damage.

Said it before - if his name was anything other than Kennedy he'd never have gotten beyond the 'Jordan Patterson' - entertaining slight nut job YouTube channel level.

But hey, at least the price of eggs might go down and their girls won't have to worry about a 200 pound man playing sports against them

Totally worth it

Not even that if RFK implements some of his preferred farming methods.

 

[bluestevon]

I fully agree. Frankly I'm just here sat on a deck chair on the front lawn enjoying a cold one whilst the lunatics make a show.

My sympathies to any American getting this shower in. Dare I say it? They make Liz Truss look like a safe pair of hands.

I'm watching it all with a kinda 'wtf is going on' attitude.
Been that way with most Western countries politics lately.

Anyways off to try find a toilet, apparently we don't have them here )

"Hitler got the trains running on time" levels in here.

Except the price of eggs probably won’t go down, because that’s not how inflation works. The price will just stop going up. But once they’ve gone up and we’ve kept paying, that bell isn’t getting unrung unless there’s some sort of government intervention to control the price, which is ABSOLUTELY not on the table for the new administration. If people understood that, maybe they would have realized that the Biden administration had done a pretty good job getting inflation under control.

We’ve had a very recent lesson that infectious diseases don’t respect international borders…

I’m going to have to reread Hitchhikers Guide to the galaxy.

Getting rid of all the apparently “useless” people and then dying of a virulent disease contracted from a dirty telephone seems appropriate.

One of the funniest books ever written due to it being very British humour.

Big Pharma a million percent needs it's influence massively reduced.

Doing so by basically saying medicine is unproven is not exactly the best way of going about it though.

Just wait until the soon to be announced special peace envoy is appointed for the Rus-Ukr conflict.

Could be anyone from Russel Brand to Russel Hartey, to a Jack Russell who won Crufts given the appointments seen thus far.

I dont think he'll get passed the confirmation committee. If he does he'll be an early casualty of Trump MkII.

Some of rfks ideas are actually pretty left wing, hence I can see massive issues with republicans

Exactly

They wanted low inflation and their guy sold them he'd unilaterally do it. Their new motto isn't MAGA but rather what i'm seeing is Trump Will Fix It

Simply gross

Yes. He'll get chased by the Klansmen who support them.
