I'm thinking the others did not do much of anything the first 100 days to make any waves in the polls. Good or bad.

FDR did many great things in his first 100 days. This is where the whole "First 100 days became "a thing" in US politics if I recall.

Trump's first 100 days are an objective disaster. All he's managed to do is align us with Putin, other tyrant nations, alienate allies and decent nations of the world, enable racism, xenophobia, nativism, sexism etc, wreck the economy. Oh yea, border crossings appear down. Not worth it, such a manufactured crisis, exploiting the underlying racism, xenophobia etc in US culture, especially among working class people, especially among working class white people. Of course, he and the cult just claim anything he does is an "accomplishment."

FDR was not in the comparison. The economy will rebound as well as the stock market. So a guy wants America to stop taking it in the shorts with matters of the world economy and policing the planet. I do not see a problem here. How he went about it is a different story.

Yep.

Trumpism is Trumpian neofacism. A mix of corporatist, oligarchic fascism, aligned with religious fascists (so called "christian" nationalists). A the core of Trumpism is the "Dark Enlightenment" of Curtis Yarvin" to which Peter Thiel and JD Vance are on board with, as are technofascists such as Musk etc.

Frankly, Trump is too shallow and too much of a morn to know what fascism is, all he knows is he wants unchecked power and these malevolent types have enabled him to further their agenda. Trump is just the demagogue mouthpiece, to get those inclined towards fascism on board, i.e. most conservatives, especially the rubes among the masses.

All the elements of neofascism are present in actions, policies, rhetoric, alignments etc. ; Nativism, ultranationalism, racism, xenophobia, authoritarianism, hostility and even violence towards intellectuals, artists, (the intelligentsia) free press, liberal democracy, judges, separation of powers, rule of law, corporatism, liberalism, socialism and much more.


That is Trumpism.

Sounds like Trump Derangement Syndrome to me.

I don't think so!! :hmmm:

You would know as you have one of the worst cases....:Kaleun_Wink:

You can always depend on a Democrat to accuse others of something they are themselves.

You can always depend on a MAGA Republican to never admit they are in error.

More Democrat projection. Yawn. Did your party figure out why you lost the election yet?

Sunglass-glint and chainsaw’s roar enthrall the throng, craving clash-fire’s brazen spark;
Yet runecraft lies in silent seams—stitchers of state bind storm’s fury in the dark.

Gavin is so disturbing, he is the quintessential demagogue, hand waving spewer of nothing.

California uses gimmicks instead of addressing the heart of its budget problem
One of the many gimmicks that California’s governors and legislators employ to paper over budget deficits, thus avoiding real spending cuts or increasing taxes, is to assume some level of savings from making state agencies and programs more efficient. They will plug arbitrary numbers into the budget from such supposed efficiencies, then, along with other gimmicks, declare that the budget gap has been closed and pat themselves on the back for the feat.

Sorry, mate, but that's an apt description of yourself and -of course- your dear leader and the MAGA cult in general. It's always somebody else's fault, it's never yours. It's always Biden/Harris/Democrats/Women/LGBTQI+/Migrants/<insert anyone else that's not you here> who are to blame, never you.

I'm not your mate, nor do I care for the unsolicited and inaccurate opinions of some ignorant foreigner.

That's an apt description of the Democrats in general and a good many republican politicians as well. :up:
