Inconsistency is the only thing Trump can be counted on to do reliably.
holding any such event in a country culturally and ecologically most similar to Mordor seems weirder.
Maybe they’re hoping for a “This is what your country will look like if everyone continues to ignore this problem” reaction from the attendees?
Or maybe it’s just the place that offered the most kickbacks to the organizers…
If nukes are an excuse to prevent all conventional intervention, then nukes are a free pass to commit any crimes one wishes against non-nuclear powers
That is the assumption Russia is operating under.
More precise than dropping a bomb on an appartment building, I suppose…
But, yeah, not the best example of preventing collateral damage.
this is a fringe right-wing party with one seat in Japanese Parliament’s lower house.
One seat too many, if this is the attitude of their leader.
should keep the rest of the world entrained.
Sorry, but you guys stopped being fun to watch a while ago.
It’s now gone well beyond train-wreck levels of horrified “can’t look away” viewing.
Now they’re seeing the ideas outlined in there and probably freaking out.
As they should be.
Hopefully they’ll wake up enough by mid-terms to vote for some level of damage control.
Why isn’t that benefitting the working class? These are real questions. Trump has all the wrong answers
The existance of people like Trump and Musk are the answer.
These orgs could use your donations now more than ever.
As well as your volunteer time
Not really sure what more could be done to inform people of the dangers of Project 2025
Most people werent aware of it.
And of those who had heard the name, some number of people assumed it was nothing more than yet another impotent rage document from some fringe group that was so outrageous as to be beyond the possibility of actually doing.
Of all the bullshit that Trump yelled about, I think actual death squads is relatively low on the list of things he would actually be able to accomplish.
For the first year or so he will be too focused on trying to punish the justice system that was so “unfair” to him.
I was being a little sarcastic in my first post,
Your mistake was not using the /s to indicate that.
Poe’s law is a thing.
Remember Poe’s law.
I really hope that was intended as sarcasm and that you simply omitted the /s
I very much doubt we’ve seen the last attempt on his life.
And it’s just as likely to come from a disillusioned historically republican as from someone more to the left.
The sentencing happens before he has any power.
Plus, any state charges can’t be pardoned by a president.
I can’t be bothered to worry about the climate 100 years from now
I can because I care about my kids and potential grandchildren.
we’re going to be attacking (many more) Americans 100 days from now
I also have family members who will be impacted directly by that.
I can be concerned about stopping both of those negative outcomes. (And would be even if it didn’t directly impact my family)
We can hope not to repeat the plague, but with Trump empowering anti-vaxxers, even that can’t be taken for granted.
Assuming he doesn’t change the rules and appoint himself president forever, then the limit is 2 terms, consecutive or not.
Even if a person started their presidential mandate partway through a 4 year cycle (as happened after Nixon stepped down and after Kennedy was shot), it’s still 2 terms, not necessarily 8 years.
If Trump dies in the next 4 years, Vance could serve out the current term and would only be eligible to become president for one additional term.
