    Tourists not so much, so many countries are issuing travel advisory notices as they have had a large up tick in overzealous border agents detaining and strip searching then deporting tourists for the crime of having anti trump sentiments on their phones. - this includes the nz government saying beware btw.

    Not in words, but in actions, trying to get rid of birthrights, and rights to due process under the flimsiest of reasons, and lets not forget his team fighting to get a him a 3rd term, Steve Bannon and Steven "Dracula" Miller. And there is the small matter of defying a direct unanimous ruling from the supreme court. Sounds like the actions of a wannabe king to me.

    Political opponents, no - but media and law firms, absolutely yes - lawfare galore there.

    What about the many people who have lost their jobs due to the tariff uncertainties, some large car manufacturers have closed down plants since trump started his stupid tariff wars. It is not all about just the stock markets.
    Because his tariffs potentially effect my business I have been keeping an eye on what he says. I carefully watched his state of the nation speech and liberation day speech and he listed a wide range of "feel good" policies that were going to be financed by these tariffs. He also said manufacturing will come back to the USA. I mean would you have the confidence to build a plant when the guy in charge changes his mind by the hour? Lets take the China tariffs. China kinda just sat back, issued a few tariff hikes of their own and not much more, in the mean time trump spits out crazy shit for weeks, with no end of big noting, then ultimately capitulates and declares a win. China gave up nothing.
    So how is trump going to finance these policies without this big tariff windfalls?

    !00% factually incorrect.

    People have been rounded up and sent to camps in the US. These are "black sites" the people cannot be contacted by lawyers or anybody else. American citizens are not safe, US citizens have been deported. Also immigrants who have served in the military, and thus qualify for citizenship, have also been deported.

    Trump is ignoring the Constitution and the Supreme Court. So saying he hasn't suspended the Constitution (yet) is playing with semantics.

    A judge was arrested for doing her job. Trump's FBI Director has said he will prosecute people he perceives as enemies of Trump. It seems though that currently he's more interested in night clubs than work. In his case that's a good thing.

    Don't expect anything other than disinformation from 666, he just repeats whatever his social media Bots feed him.

    And ironically he will likely think other people are sheep.
    Don't you look at my accountant.

    Following storms in the mid west leaving twenty eight dead and dozens injured, people in Kentucky are waiting in vain for relief to arrive from the federal government. FEMA, the federal government relief agency, was gutted by DOGE. They have neither the staff nor the funding to provide assistance. Similarly the meteorological services were reduced and after hours coverage was cut completely resulting in some of the storms arriving without warning.

    Officials in Kentucky say they have had no contact from central government at all. Trump who has said that the states should look after their own problems, recently made a rambling speech but made no mention of the disaster at all. Almost as if it hasn't happened.

    Kentucky, Missouri, and Texas will not yet have had time to ponder the thought that elections have consequences.

    While that sounds like a lot to us in a country of 330 million you can’t be at every bad event

    https://injuryfacts.nsc.org/home-and...-and-injuries/

    It's not the job of FEMA to be 'at every bad event'. It's their job to be there immediately after the event to assist the potentially thousands of people who have no water, food, or shelter.

    Since DOGE gutted the staff FEMA currently lack sufficient people with the technical knowledge to do the job. We have all seen how Trump performs in an emergency situation. He's as much use as the proverbial chocolate tea pot.

    Gee. Who could have predicted that?

    Actually, I can think of some.
