So twitter are talking about how they can ban Trump on inauguration day.
He has 88m followers which is pretty amazing seeing the shit that comes with liking Trump, Obama has 120m but any virtue signalling idiot can sign up to get the warm glow of obedience.

Obama's feed isn't chock full of paranoid delusion and straight up bullshit though, why would they ban him? They can ban Trump if they wish, he will just have to spew his idiocy elsewhere like the other irrelivent little cunts, your Katies Hopkins, Alex Jones and David Ickes of this world.

Got to keep the narrative going, it's very lucrative for him.

Pardons keep a coming for the worst people and the people who were promised pardons if they refused to cooperate with feds. This round includes Paul Manafort and here is a reminder of who he is:

We knew it would happen. Trump is cleaning up, these people will probably bend over backwards for him in the post-hand over trials against Trump.

Whether you like him or not Newt Gringich's assessment of Biden is that if he wants to get anything done he'll end up like Clinton and Blair.

Interesting read. Happens to dovetail with what I think is going to happen too...

...pointless democrats, doing nothing about inequality. Just like they have been failing to do for decades and just like Labour will fail if Starmer gets in.
So the party that will try to tackle inequality but not make enough of a difference for you is no different to the party that will actively try to increase inequality because Ayn Rand or something?

It won't "not make enough of a difference" - it will do nothing.

The gap between rich and poor will grow under the democrats. Period.

He was collateral damage from a firefight.
I'll support consequences the day they lock up Blair and Bush , there are thousands of kids faces destroyed by cluster bombs and hellfire strikes that dont get into the papers because ...well they dont put them in the papers because theres no power leverage from doing so.

Am I supposed to believe from the way the papers spin it, that the mercenaries just opened fire for the lolz, 'hey someone shoot the kid'.

Its not something that mercenaries would be interested to do.

In ..out..get paid.

Whoever fired on them while kids were in the firing line ultimately is to blame.

Wow. What a piece of shit.

The other thing he didn’t do is war. For all his belligerence and violently nationalist and xenophobic rhetoric, Trump didn’t start a new war or escalate an existing one, which makes him unusual among modern presidents.

Arguably, these two things – building infrastructure and starting a military conflict – might just have got Trump re-elected. So why did he not do either of them?

His personal laziness is certainly one explanation: galvanising and directing such huge efforts is hard work.

But there is a deeper reason. Great building projects and military engagements validate the idea of government itself. Trump’s overwhelming instinct was to destroy that idea.

Panning Trump for not starting or exacerbating war - and saying war defines and legitimises government?

I got as far as the end of this. The rest up to that point had a little merit (but also could be seen as butthurt whining) - but when you get this far you find that the writer is a world class thundercunt.

Some people have let their hatred of Trump overwhelm any vestige of reason.

He's not saying a new war would have been good ffs.

However, I am eagerly awaiting the day when the anti-war crowd suddenly start disliking drone strikes again once a democrat is in office :)

The weight of history would clearly indicate getting into a nice war does one's election prospects no harm, and it is true that Trump bucked a long Presidential trend; his motivations for doing so are the question though.

He doesn't actual pan Trump for not getting into a war, he just asks why, on the basis that just as its possible to do bad things with good intentions, its also possible to do good things with bad intentions, and Trump's intentions are always suspect.
