So are you guys ready to admit that Trump isn't going to do anything?
No wall, no Hillary indictment, no repeal/replace, no authoritarian solution to the caravan, no federal oversight in rigged elections, talk of being bipartisan after losing the House to the most left-wing dems in history
When do we admit this was a failure and we were (neo)conned?
we always knew that the point was to embarrass the establishment
Austin Jackson
Is that your only political ideology? "Triggering libs". Sad, seriously
Dylan Phillips
Meanwhile the libtards got the most radically far right house in US history and the senate is next because this fat waspy NY faggot won't do anything at all ever
Leo Williams
>election fraud rampant with no repercussions >immigrants pouring in through tijuana jumping over the fence screaming "fuck the USA" >right wing platforms shut down daily, deplatformed, and defunded
He reignited American populism, that movement isn't going away anytime soon with or without Trump
Ryder Adams
Trump was a fluke, the RNC actively tried to keep the nomination away from him.
Romney and christcucks is the standard for republicans. See how well that shit goes over in 2024 when Trump is for sure gone.
Camden Hernandez
he's just a windbag. But who else is there?
Landon Jackson
Who did you think he was? Guy is a classic lib without the globalism I still think the wall will happen, repeal & replace won’t, he never proposed an authoritatian measure on the caravan (just /pol did), you need to sell bills as bilartisan to get them passed in a split congress.
Populism will die down eventually, it is a symptom of discontent with the establishment and is usually satisfied by things like this administration, at least for a little while No one can be populist forever because the end game of tossing out elites makes it unecessary
Christopher Robinson
Not a shill you retard, you lost the midterms; accept that MAGA hype only exists in these echochambers and MAGA hats in the normie world are quickly being mantle decor next to NASCAR cups.
>didn't see the pictures of Trump bowing to Israel and Saudi Kings >forgets about how at least once a year Trump orders a bombing run in Syria based on sketchy intelligence (just like the Bush days!) >"I'm both a nationalist and a globalist" -- President Donald J. Trump, 2017
Zachary Green
He dropped the globalist in 2018, and whatever he says his policies are not globalist unless you consider peace talks to fall in that category. >muh israel I don’t care about israel or the ongoing jew conspiracy
Asher Collins
do you legitimately not mind that he's toning down his rhetoric and negotiating with his adversaries or do you just go with whatever his mode is? serious question, not trying to be snarky
Evan Martinez
Yeah it's going to be interesting to see which direction the Republican party goes. I wonder if it's possible to cross reference how many christcucks there are under the age of 65, compared to how many republicans under 65 supported Trump during the primaries and general
Ayden King
The question is who will the elites be in the next few election cycles? I feel as if the neoliberal establishment is nearly finished, as discontented dems are slowly moving more and more left. The neo-con establishment will still have influence, with the remaining neo-libs supporting them in all likely hood. It's possible there will be 3 main parties in the future between the socialists, neolib/neocon alliance and the populists who believe in individual freedom distrusting the other two
Michael Bennett
Yes because it is a necessary measure to get anything passed going forward. Be realistic The first 2 years we had a unified republican government, that was the time to push as hard as possible for the things that mattered the most and we saw the tax cuts, AHA, Kavanaugh and preliminary wall progress in that time Now we’ll face obstruction to anything that doesn’t offer dems benefit. We can either continue the hardline stance and get nothing we want or we can compromise and get some of what we want
Parker Cooper
Also I have an armchair theory that he’s saving the wall for term 2 so he can use it as a campaign device. He’ll start it but won’t complete it before 2020. “Vote for me if you want it finished”
Nathaniel Turner
This is a possibility. Trudeau did the same in Canada with weed one year before our Federal election. He'll frame it as "if you want to keep your legal weed vote liberal"
Hudson Wood
That's pretty smart, it'll definitely test if his base is also capable of pragmatic compromise or if they're gonna be screaming right wing retards for another two years
