Donald Trump looking Zionist now, does he think Israel is going to win in the next few hours or days or he wants them bombing each other for another 2 weeks?

One thing about Trump - I think he is sensitive to his constituency. Unlike Dems and many Repubs who'll just manipulate the hell out of the public to achieve their agenda ... whatever it is ... Trump actually pays attention to what his voters think. I think the way he handled Covid and the abortion issue indicates that.

I'm fair certain he'll muck up the Mideast in favor of Israel. Most of his voters are either rabid Zionists (even if they don't know the meaning of the word) or rabidly anti-Muslim, or both . I was against his Mideast policies before, which I find as morally repugnant as neocons', and I'll probably be against them this time.

Then we have jarheads like JSF who're all for war with China over Taiwan, or perhaps ANOTHER proxy war we're supposed to fund and weaponize. What they didn't get the first time is that Trump's beef with China was primarily economic, not military. But if there are enuf gung-ho Sinophobes in his constituency, he may accede to some sort of direct conflict with China.

There are two related problems that I think will be impossible for him to fix.

The first one is splitting Russia from China, Iran, and N Korea. He might decide to go "maximum pressure" on Iran (Israeli proxy war on Iran) and China (tariffs, sanctions, etc) and offer Russia an escape route (end sanctions, offer favorable terms on Ukraine) in return for Russia reneging on its deals with Iran, China, and N Korea. But Russia doesn't break deals like we do. I don't think that will work.

The second problem is the BRICS' nascent alternative trade, payment, currency, and finance system. I'm trying to think of a way he might lever that apart. Secondary sanctions? Brazil is the BRICS' most pro- USA member, with ties to the Dem party, and Saudi Arabia is the next-most influential almost-member. I'm sure he'll be working on a plan to weaken BRICS.

My other concern is the Federal budget. Yanno, Trump's experience is in real estate, and it's all based on funny money at that level. IDK if Trump, at heart, respects the effect a huge budget deficit has on the value of the dollar and on world finance.

Anyway, it'll be an interesting four years. Assuming he doesn't get assassinated before his term ends.




On the money so far. He'll have to pull a few rabbits out of hats.

I would have never predicted a blatant Epstein coverup. We know from the other end that Prince Andrew was a client. So how can they say "no clients" with a straight face? Epstein was prolly working for Mossad and, yanno, Trump loves Israel.

You win some, you lose some.

Our country is still going to be far better off than it was on the trajectory we were going.

Here's an adult take on this last week. I recommend that you consider taking it and seeing how things play out rather than play into the hands of stupid people like Ted.




Democrats are a Hive Mind. They had Ted looking the other way while they were allowing drag-queen pedophiles to read books to kindergartners and there was even that video of a girl rubbing up on a dude's junk because he was dressed like Ariel, The Little Mermaid. We don't fall into lock-step with evil people just because they're on our "side".

We're not going to agree on everything. I will decide when enough is enough and we're far from there yet with all the good that's been done and the bullet we dodged by not having Kamala Harris put the final nail in America's coffin.

Not a concern, exactly ... been there, done that. More like interpretation.

Three views of Trump's foreign policy,:

1) He's playing 5D chess. He has clear goals in mind, including ending our endless wars, but he's facing political bullets (and occasional literal ones) so he's having to do a lot of distraction and dodging and weaving to get to his goals. Simplicius and Alex Krainer think this way.

2) He's seriously conflicted. Some of his goals conflict with other goals. Like: He wants to make peace BUT he doesn't want to lose. He wants to negotiate BUT only when he's in total control. So he waffles back and forth, depending on the state of his ego at the moment. the Duran.

3) He's been a neocon all a long, and he's just part of the same pattern that the USA deep state has been exhibiting all along. Scott Ritter, Brian Berletic, Larry Johnson.
