President Donald Trump

President Donald Trump

I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?

So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at

let us review

- Trump is going to bomb Greenland

-- no he's not

- your'e a tardo, he said he would

-- no he didn't

- you're a tardo, he said easy way or hard way, it's implied

-- ok

-- trump said he wouldn't use force on greenland

- you're a tardo, diabetes, ozempic, and zamunda.

lmk when the bombs start hitting Greenland

I said if there is not strong condemnation, it would happen.

The boys stepped up and your orange deity choked on a bag of dicks and then started rambling about how Somalis are low IQ but maybe they're higher IQ than he thought because they successfully scammed people out of billions.

What an admission there of 1: he thinks the darker you are, the dumber you are, and 2: he thinks you need to be smart to con people.

But other than that, the rest of the discourse in this thread was you trying to say that neither Trump nor his administration said military options were on the table.


the discourse in the thread is you said he was going to bomb greenland and i said he wouldn't. the rest is just noise.

We'll see what you say when he starts bombing Greenland

by housenuts

1) they won't bomb it
2) they won't take it by force

I was talking about what you would say if he starts bombing Greenland.

I'll still be interested in what you say if it happens. We still got at least three years, boyo.


by Rococo

As I'm sure you are aware, there was a European country ****ing up Vietnam before the U.S. took up the banner.

More than one in fact.

You're citing history as if it justifies the US's action.

if/when bit of a difference in speech

I'd be shocked and wrong if he did.


What is there to bomb in Greenland anyway? Doesn't Temecula (California) have a bigger population than Greenland?


I thought by now you'd have stopped expecting reasonable actions from this administration.

I don't see how you could infer the bolded from me saying that the U.S. took up the banner of ****ing up Vietnam.


Ok. I’m not sure why it’s relevant to what I wrote if it’s not justification.

Your post implied that Europe had clean hands. I was just pointing out that that wasn't true. But in my book that isn't any sort of defense of U.S. foreign policy.


ICE are scum, aren't they.

You're such a tardo.He floated the threat out there and took note of the responses. Then he kept doing it in order to normalize it. Once they decided to take him seriously by moving troops of NATO countries into Greenland and threatening to take away imports, like [N]74% of all diabetes medication comes from Denmark and 100% of Ozempic comes from Denmark[/B], he TACO'd. Looks l

you know you can get that **** from china for like 1/100th of the price. maybe i should let trump know I started taking returtide for like 3$ a week. im already reselling peptides to body builders. when it gets approved its gonna be the most expensive drug of all time

No, my post didn’t imply that. Europe has the dirtiest of hands pre WW2: it created the USA and subjugated most countries to some sort of imperial rule after all. But that is the past and we can’t change it.

But since WW2 America has invaded, bombed and slaughtered, with its allies, millions upon millions of people and continues to do this regardless of which party is in power or who the president is.

Many in Laos still choose to live in tree houses because the carpet bombing of 50 years ago makes it far less dangerous than building houses on the ground.

The revelation that you sell black market pharmaceuticals from China to bodybuilders is perhaps the least surprising news ever.

Probably. Think about the kind of person who is drawn to that job.

The guy who sent them to raise hell in MN (Trump) and stomp on the civil liberties of minorities is definitely scum. Those who still support Trump are worthless scum as well.

I am not defending post WWII U.S. foreign policy. At a comprehensive level, I don't think it is possible to do so.

As for Laos, it is very much true that the U.S. dropped disgraceful amounts of cluster bombs on Laos. It is true that unexploded munitions continue to be a huge problem in Laos. The country has neither the money nor the manpower to remediate the problem quickly. It is true that thousands of Lao people have been injured or killed by these legacy munitions, many of whom were children. It is a disgrace that the U.S. government has done little or nothing to rid the Lao countryside of unexploded munitions.

It is false that many people in Laos live in tree houses. I was in Laos very recently, including some less traveled areas in the north that were heavily bombed. In my entire time there, I did not see a single tree house. I'm not going to say that there are zero such houses in Laos, but they are not at all common.

I don't even know what the point of extensive tree houses would be. In rural Laos, farming continues to be a way of life, as it has been for decades. You could sleep in a tree house all you want, but the people and their livestock would still be walking the land to stay alive. The cluster bombs don't explode randomly. A lot of the deaths and injuries occur because people find "bombies" and don’t take appropriate care. This is a particularly heartbreaking problem for kids. There have been efforts to educate people about the danger, but kids are kids. Cluster bombs are the size of tennis balls and often seem like toys to rambunctious eight year olds.


The point of tree houses would be to not have to develop land possibly containing unexploded bombs. There are stilt homes too as you know, which also avoid problems associated with flooding.

The point is that the land is developed for agriculture no matter whether people live in tree houses or not. In any case, the fact remains that building tree houses because of cluster bombs is not at all common in Laos.

I saw some stilt homes, but I was mostly in areas in the north that are more mountainous. Unexploded bombs are a significant problem in those mountainous areas but flooding is less of a concern. I suspect that stilt homes are much more common in low lying areas. The stilt homes I saw seemed less about flood protection, and more about creating a usable outside area that was sheltered from the sun.

ICE officers are being incentivized to make more arrests, even if the folks
they’re detaining are here legally and are later released without any charges



I misspoke. I should have said Ice are the scum of the earth.

In my opinion, ICE still way behind the IDF in that department. Although ICE catching up quickly.

Nice. Were you just traveling/vacation or some kind of work?

As a continuation of heinous behavior of the USA government, after dropping 270 million cluster bombs in Laos and all the deaths that caused then and still causes to this day....there are ICE agents knocking on doors in Minnesota asking people where the Hmong are.
