...well, if you'd seen your uncle Jack F., and dad Robert F. assassinated on public TV in your formative years by a self-described patsy, Oswald; and a man, SirhanČ standing in front (while the gunshot wounds were to the rear??) you'd be entitled to be a little nuts too:timeout:.....but at age 70, after 61 years, lets hope he's outgrown his childhood trauma IE: errrr 'Merikan politics as usual?!!

Yeah they are all out and broke they paid their price for their loyalty. The same will happen with the current people, it is waiting for Trump to dump them if they do not do what he wants.

This whole transition thing makes me think of the House Atreides taking over the planet Arrakis from the House Harkonnen :-?

One might say that is a pretty good analogy :)

Skybird 11-16-24 06:28 AM

No, it reminds of the Harkonnen later retaking Arrakis and wiping the Atreides out.

Again, with this pick Trump stays loyal to himself and rewards those who committed themselves to him.



I would prefer they officially and formally all commit themselves to the constitution, not the man. Doing that alone already would be revolutionary enough in modern times.

And can you say the same, Of your own government? It would seem in all these years, Germans are wanting freedom, But the Europeans , say no ****in,way. Maybe It's time you get your own Donald Trump .

I've read that "vets" turned out for Trump.
Trust me, this "vet" DID NOT vote for Trump. :yep:
To be fair, almost all of my "vet buddies" served during some part of the old Cold War. THEY did not vote for Trump.

:Kaleun_Goofy:

Well, you old vets from the cold war, Did you support Joe Biden and his sudden exit from Afghanistan to support a new proxy Ukraine war against Russia.? And tell me old war vet.What war did the United States send money and advisers into that, We did not have our own young boots on the ground ?

Those democrats made a big show out of what looked like his lifeless corpse just wanting to hold on long enough to vote against Trump.

So stop with the Hitler comparisons already. We are not Weimar Germany or the Third Reich and we will never be.

No, it is not Weimar. But you described it correctly, "formally". I am not a lawyer, but I highly doubt that the fathers of the US constitution would think that the behavior of Trump and his hard-core fellows is aligned with the spirit of the constitution. I guess I do not have to give examples.

But yeah, another 4 years of Trump. Could be more boring. Surely fun.

I suspect that's because you don't have any to give. It's much easier to make wild accusations if you don't have to back them up with facts.

I think you are being rather presumptuous. In fact, if the Migrants ( Invaders ) are deemed to be dangerous, which they are, then the President has broad discretionary powers to deal with these threats.


The President’s Constitutional Authority to Conduct
Military Operations Against Terrorists and
Nations Supporting Them


The President has broad constitutional power to take military action in response to the terrorist attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001. Congress has acknowledged this inherent executive power in both the War Powers Resolution and the Joint Resolution passed by Congress on September 14, 2001

The President has constitutional power not only to retaliate against any person, organization, or state suspected of involvement in terrorist attacks on the United States, but also against foreign states suspected of harboring or supporting such organizations.

The President may deploy military force preemptively against terrorist organizations or the states that harbor or support them, whether or not they can be linked to the specific terrorist incidents of September 11.

September 25, 2001

https://www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/olc/opinions/2001/09/31/op-olc-v025-p0188_0.pdf

This Gives the President of the United States the Power to conduct operations deemed vital to the security of U.S Territory including against ANY, I repeat, ANY State harboring Individuals considered a threat to the Citizens of The United States.

Further, there is the Supremacy Clause.

The Supremacy Clause of the Constitution of the United States (Article VI, Clause 2) establishes that the Constitution, federal laws made pursuant to it, and treaties made under its authority, constitute the "supreme Law of the Land", and thus take priority over any conflicting state laws.[1]

It provides that state courts are bound by, and state constitutions subordinate to, the supreme law.[2] However, federal statutes and treaties must be within the parameters of the Constitution;[3] that is, they must be pursuant to the federal government's enumerated powers, and not violate other constitutional limits on federal power, such as the Bill of Rights—of particular interest is the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which states that the federal government has only those powers that are delegated to it by the Constitution.[4]

It is the responsibility of the United States Supreme Court in that case to exercise the power of judicial review: the ability to invalidate a statute for violating a provision of the Constitution.

Ask Nursing Student Laken Riley if the Migrants are a threat. Oh, that's right. We can't. This beautiful young Woman was brutally murdered by one of these Migrant pieces of garbage from Venezuela. This bright, young, beautiful Woman was going to be something and quite honestly, was already. Laken's life would have been about helping people. Now, she is gone and her Parents have been given a life sentence.

The demographics for the Migrants coming here show that they are predominately between the ages of 16 to 35, I believe I read. Considering the crimes they have committed, they aren't here seeking asylum, they are here on a hunting expedition. I hope after President Elect Trump is Inaugurated, we return the favor in spades. :yep:


Any questions ?

No, it's exactly the same as what's happening in the UK with these Migrant Scum we're being invaded by, Trump might be able to do something about these migrants, but here in poor old Blighty, we have politicians who give them money, housing and free healthcare, who wouldn't want some of that?. :doh:

I had been completly unaware of the issues that the U.K was dealing with, until recently. I had a conversation here in the U.S with a friend who lives in the U.K. I was taken aback by how closely our situations mirror each other. Apparently, you have stupid people and politicians in charge the same as we do. I would bet we have more of them, pound for pound. The Democrats here are a sorry, pathetic and dangerous lot.

I'm sure Trump is being watched the world over and Trump knows it. If President Trump is sucessful and I'm betting he will be, maybe England will take a page out of our playbook and do the same. The people in England deserve better the same as ours do. I believe Germany was or is suffering similar situations as well.

I well and truly hope things get better there in the U.K and in short order. I have a number of friends both here and in my private life that are either from Australia, England or Germany. I'm wondering what that's all about. :hmmm: :haha:

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that ethnically speaking, I'm German / Scots. :hmmm:
