The MAGA movement will end come January 2029. Historians will easily be able to identify the weaknesses and dysfunction in our two major political parties that allowed two Trump presidential terms to happen.


They have to prop up Trump for as long as possible. They will weaken when he is gone, definitely still be around, but not as strong.

A lot of unnecessary deaths worldwide.

Exactly.

I was thinking how efficiently you could cut costs in a hospital…if you did not care about patients dying.

That is the Musk/Trump model.

Not sure he's doing anything to change this...

Trump ranked last.


So funny that educated people, who have studied history, know this . But his followers think he was was saved by God to lead us out of (prosperity? Pronouns? Equality and inclusion????)

Most corrupt. Most ignorant. Most ridiculous. Most incompetent. Most skilled at getting people to lose their minds and vote for an ignoramus just because he promised to govern as a deranged bigot.

I'm already viewing him as Hitler II. There is no doubt that children have already starved and died because of him.

The next time you even think the word “emasculated “ watch the video of your Republican Secretary of State with his deer-in-the-headlights bearing, trying to fold himself into a sofa — really scary given who he was sitting with.


The MAGA group clearly appeals to people who want an angry yet unaccountably charismatic authoritarian figures. The obvious Republican authoritarians next in line have negative charisma. Check with the Heritage Foundation. They probably have an approved list. Maybe Hegseth — if he’ll do what he’s told.

Honestly, I think Trump will stand on his own — no comparisons needed. The real question will be what was it that millions of Americans found so attractive. Was it his clear mental illness and dementia? Was it the TV show? Was it purely racism, selfishness and ignorance— details be damned?

I just hope enough of us decent people survive to do our own version of Never Again.

PP, are you starting as far back as COVID? When he avidly ramped up racism in NYC? Internationally? Yeah, no doubt.

He staged the greatest political comeback ever after being censored and arrested. He broke the back of Democratic Party hegemony. He exposed a lot of wasteful and corrupt spending. He shifted the middle and working classes from Democrats to Republicans. He launched the career of two-term President JD Vance. He drove the Democrats crazy.


LlES. That was Biden.

We need more like Trump and much much less like the left


Weren’t the assassination “attempts” made by Republicans? What acts of violence have been committed against people associated with him? Are you counting drug abuse as “acts of violence”?

You forgot measles and the destruction of the U.S. as the global hegemon and an economic recession/depression.



And racism don’t forget the racism. Not everyone bought into the myth of believing that the US could be a cultural mosaic, but Trump’s destructiveness has mad this a very uncomfortable and unsafe for many of us — in ways that we haven’t seen in over 50 years. He seems to be trying to provoke a race war, along with WWlll.

I think history will remember him as a weak, uneducated, mentally disturbed conman—who willingly sold out America and who shat on the American Dream, albeit with a lot of help.
