Gotta love a state where setting cars or Molotov cocktails alight is OK, but god forbid you light a cigarette or camp fire on a public beach.

Quote from: TylerBeer on June 11, 2025, 04:39 PMThe Trump that said he was going to run for a third term. If Obama had said that you would have been frothing and pissing your pants posting about it. Instead, tan suit

I never would have guessed that you're the leader of the dumbsmits but that sentence just might get you there.
We would have laughed if Obama said that. And do you know why? Because of the 2 term limit.
You got trolled by Trump and are all butthurt about it.

You should go to a doctor, that last brain cell you have is dying.

I don't know if Trump is trolling. It's too hard to tell with him because everything he says is a potential troll. Some of which he turns around and does even after people say he was just trolling.

Steve Bannon, on the other hand, has been pushing this long before Trump ever mentioned it, and I have no doubt that Bannon isn't trolling because he's a pile of shit lunatic. What's worrisome, is that Trump is notorious for taking advice from idiots. Rudy Giuliani? Roger Stone? Whoever convinced him that the MS13 tattoo on Garcia's knuckles wasn't photoshopped.

Doesn't matter if he's serious or trolling, Father Time will not be denied.
His energy and stamina never fail to amaze me, but he's an old man and he does not have a third term in him.
That's assuming he survives this term. He has legions of enemies that would love to dance on his grave.
Hopefully he will put all that energy and stamina into building a party that can carry his legacy forward
when his term is up.

He sure got a shockingly great VP this time around. Contrast couldn't be clearer from Pence. Turned out to be a real wanker

I never really liked him and always wondered why he chose Pence in the first place.
He seemed like an Al Gore clone in the sense that he was too stiff and never commanded respect or authority when he spoke, couldn't hold a room.

He was a popular governor of Indiana, a staunch pro-lifer and an evangelical Christian
He was chosen because he was a good hammer for cracking the Blue Wall in the midwest.

Does wanker mean "not a trump loyalist" in this case?

I don't know what he did to make the right turn on him the way they did, other than refusing to *not* certify the election.

He was always too ridged in his views for my.

Being a patriot and following the constitution is way more than enough in our current political climate to be called, at best, a wanker.

Party uber alles comrades.

I'm sure the future president Newsom will pardon them if they happen to get arrested. A new presidence has been set.

National polls are running 70/30 in favor of Trump's handling of these riots.
I think Newsome's mouth is digging him into a hole he won't be able to get out of.
Of course 2028 is a long time off. Who knows what will happen between now and then.

If he would have done his job, Trump wouldn't have had to send in the National Guard.
But he ignored it, let them riot solely so he could blame Trump for "escalating" the riots, which is the new hot-button term they're all parroting. Shocker.
