Otto is right this is the buzz if Trump says 5% it is lower, take it with a truck of salt.

You are most likely right.

What I also have learned the last few days is that the Danish Prime minister had promised Trump during his last term, a military increase in Greenland-Which haven't happened at all.

Could this be the reason why Trump is acting like he does ?

It is about the Arctic, strategic significance. The Arctic land is under the undisputed sovereignty of the 8 Arctic states. The 5 countries bordering the Arctic Ocean, Denmark through Greenland, the United States through Alaska, Norway, Russia and Canada. Trump wants more bases around the Arctic for his security, that's what it's all about.

I think Markus whatever news feed you like to read/watch embellishes, easy to write Trump said this or did that with all the TDS. I am not totally sure but I think some of what you are talking about was from 2018.

I think Otto is right, Markus. President Elect Trump is bombastic in how he phrases things. You have nothing to worry about. :yep: Now, if you are an Illegal Migrant / Invader in the U.S, that's another story.


I think President Elect Trump will have enough Issues to deal with here at home to occupy his time.


So, just relax.

That's true-Trump is very bombastic in his way of saying things. So I'll take his statement with a truckload of salt.

Not what I meant. I’m asking you to back up the claims of incompetence with facts. Most of what I’m seeing are misinformation being spread.

Buddahaid 01-16-25 03:08 PM

On another note, the DOJ may preemptively drop the charges in the remaining Mar-a-Lago case and release the report before Monday.

What Universe are you living in ? Where do you want to start with Incompetence ?

How about the vast amount of money that the Feds have given California for the High Speed Rail Projects that never materialized ? What about the money given for Reservoir's to store water to fight fires such as the one in progress now ? If that had been done, this fire would have been contained in hours. What about clearing the brush that have sparked these fires. That is called forestry management. The Democrats have said this is Climate change. I think there is some truth there. However, If the Democratic leadership is aware of Climate Change, then it would seem necessary to prepare for that with various contingencies and scenario's. These are facts, not disinformation as you have said.

No, Newsom would rather squander money on DEI initiatives and industrial strength Hair Gel in light of the strong winds in California..

Newsom, in less than a decade, has utterly destroyed California. I think a full investigation is warranted to see where the money the Feds gave California went. If it was misappropriated, those responsible should be charged. Why should the rest of the U.S have to keep bailing out California and pay for their stupidity because of theft and mismanagement ?


By the way, where is your link for your last post ?

All but one reservoir was full and the one that was empty was getting scheduled repair in the middle of winter when the fire danger is at it's lowest.

Clearing the brush. Do you have any idea of the size of the area involved? Do you realize that Federal funding comes from a House budget that for the last two years the GOP couldn't manage to come up with one and just kicked the Pelosi can down the road over and over again. Do you realize that 44 Republicans voted against that funding?

The Military show have made a video on this topic. Before watching it-Take it as an action movie-You said it yourself Trump is not going to intervene in Greenland and/or Panama.

Ok, It was Joey and the Democrats ,Who left Afghanistan....Why? for one thing they knew. Democracy was not going to happen.And Their Globalist Oalgercy agenda.In the name of Democracy had to shift to keep the momentum going so Find a weenie man or a woman with a weenie. Anything but a man.

Do you think Trump will fulfill his promises he has made for his upcoming term ?

Quote:

After Donald Trump becomes president again on Monday, he is on the hook for achieving a hefty chunk of his promises even before the day is out. One of those promises is to make you dizzy.

“Your head will spin when you see what’s going to happen,” he said of Day 1.

Steady yourself. This is some of what the Republican promised voters he would get done on his first day in office:
