Trump

[gilesgoat]

I just find it incredible that a president can just pardon who he likes.....

I'll find it even MORE incredible if he gets re-elected AGAIN.

Now according to Alex Jones "a coup d'etat" seems almost "unavoidable" .. he was going on and on yesterday on the fact that the elections will be rigged, Mr Toupee will then refuse to leave the White House and then the army will intervene to arrest and remove him.

"And that's all part of a master plan!".

He was KINDA inciting to "revolution" of "the patriots" to save USA.

Trump has commuted Roger Stone's sentence.
That is different to a pardon - it means Stone does not start his jail sentence and can now appeal, on the basis of providing new evidence to the Supreme Court.

He is still guilty of everything he did.
Trump trying to sneak it out on Friday night unnoticed might actually backfire on him.


Oh, and Kanye hasn't submitted any paperwork to officially run for President.

Time for a Brewster's Millions style "vote none of the above" campaign...

Of all the people that could possibly campaing for .. can't they choose at least someone, like Obama for example, that actually KNOWS/has studied of politics and such ?

Also "I doubt that even Kayne has all the money it takes to become a president/run a campaign in USA" .. so "who's actually behind him ?" .. or is he "so good to get so many donations" ?

But seriously .. "ok figures with a certain charisma" .. but that does NOT make of them "good politicians" ...

I may be wrong, I dunno, but I can't see anyone like Kayne "taking decisions for a whole nation" unless in USA "the president" it's just "a frontpage figure" that actually only does/says whatever someone else tells him/her to do.

Oh BTW so when a female president then ? It's only men there

Kanye West is almost certainly there as a spoiler. Trump has almost none of the youth or black vote, and so it's likely that the majority of votes going to him would come from the Democrats. A few percent in a few key swing states is all Trump needs from him.

I have only just discovered this, from his Fourth or July speech:

Could West actually win given all the "Black Lives Matter" situation OR "precisely because of that" it's going to be even more votes for Mr Toupee ?

Well, it took visiting a military hospital, but they finally got him to wear a mask, and now he thinks he looks like The Lone Ranger (no, he said that):

Edit: typing that, I had a sudden thought - "Wait a minute"... and from a quick image search, it seems Trumps even got that wrong. Whilst the Long Ranger has a neck scarf, it doesn't look like it could be used as a face covering whereas most of the images I've seen its an eye mask The Lone Ranger wears most the time...

Of course Trump has a face mask with the presidential seal on it.

Kanye has a lot of money. In fact his company Yeezee (to rhyme with sleazy) got a $1 million dollar Federal payment "to protect jobs" because of COVID-19...

[F-ZeroOne]

Of course Trump has a face mask with the presidential seal on it.

To be fair - and it pains me just typing that - I suspect that would have happened whoever happened to be President (though I could also say that if someone else was that President, they might not have needed to make such a fuss about not wearing/wearing a mask in the first place... ).

Kanye is not actually running for President, he's a man with serious bipolar disorder in the middle of a manic episode. He has filed none of the paperwork to actually run, and this will all die down whenever his family convinces him to get back on his meds.

I suspect some persons would be minded to prevent that from happening. They probably would not be able to stop him crashing, however, once this episode ends. West is no Howard Beale.

Ah you mean it's a better candidate than Mr Toupee then ?

.. and that goes with my "theory" that "good people DO NOT go into politics" ...

Kanye's joke of a campaign is over.

Trump still banging on that "testing less would mean less cases"
