How anyone takes this imbecile seriously is anyone’s guess. Then again you’d have to have extreme brainpower to understand any of this.

No if he wants that he had to splurge for the premium Trump Cuck package.

That's a really interesting theory. Trump's supporters are actually quite brilliant, because they understand what to us just looks like poorly-formed, incomplete sentences, non-sequiturs and irrelevant digressions.

Once he and his entourage of fascists, imbeciles and quacks start implementing their policies, they will be faced with a movement of mass resistance.

The millions of working class families who voted for Trump did not vote for a fascist dictatorship, nor for the destruction of public health, nor for the destruction of the environment, nor for the mass deportation of immigrants.

They voted against the Democrats, who throughout their bankrupt election campaign, showed a complete indifference to the economic suffering and collapsing living standards of the working class.

Trump exploited this social anger.

But much sooner than later, it will become clear to these millions of working class families that Trump has no answer for their problems any more than the Democrats.

And that social anger will then take on Trump.

We are in for mass social struggle in the US, on a scale not seen for decades.

Many western governments who were in power post covid have been kicked out . Aust ,uk , nz and usa . The economic impact with high inflation couldnt be fixed quickly . Add to that russia invading ukraine spiking up oil prices , and supply shortages from china , not much governments could do other than increase interest rates

Sure.

But the Democrats refused to recognise the impact of this economic crisis on the working class.
They told workers that if they didn't vote for Harris, they were "mysogynist".

But Trump, like every fascist demagogue, took advantage of the social anger. He pretended to be concerned about the financial desperation facing many working class families. He pointed out the total lack of concern of the Democrats, and promised that he would "make America great again"

So he cashed in on social anger to win the Presidency. But as soon as he starts to try to implement his agenda, the social anger will rapidly turn against him.

The issue is that the perspective of capitalism for the world's population is increasing social inequality, war, genocide, dictatorship....all capitalist parties are locked into this.

That is why it is necesary for the working class to create its own international, anti-capitalist ie socialist party.

The Red Necks who voted for donny is like Turkeys voting for Christmas.
Their will be a price to pay for donny's policies and it will be the Red Necks who pay.

A January 6 riot, this time done by those opposed to Donald Trump's resounding victory.

My how the tables have turned.

Nothing much will happen, but if it did it would be interesting to hear donny's reaction after what happened 4 years ago.

I was aiming for the narrator in Anchorman or Spottswoode from Team America, but very close

Jan 6 riot was your interpretation, but it isn't what I meant.

I am talking about a mass social movement, something not restricted to Capitol Hill, but shaking the entire nation.

The working class better not stir the pot, Trump might launch the nukes.

That's how it goes right?

No. The working class will be forced to fight for its own survival. There will be mass strikes, mass protests on a scale not seen since the 1930's...and even greater.

Workers are not going to sit back and allow themselves and their families to be starved.


Even Trump wouldn't use nuclear weapons on the territory of the US, it would obliterate too much of his own real estate.

80% red vs 20% blue

That's a demolition job not seen since Mike Tyson's last KO win.

Obama had bigger EC margins both elections.

You're welcome.

A whole heap of Trump supporters actually did vote for this.

They liked his strongman rhetoric.
They liked removing 'socialist' healthcare.
They liked reversing any climate action.
They liked mass deportations.

They'll get exactly what they voted for, and they'll hate it.

No doubt, there is a fascist hard core base of Trump supporters (the various fascist militias like the Oath Keepers etc, the Christian fundamentalists and above all the super billionaires who support Trump), but they are not why he won the election.

He won because of a mass collapse in support for the Democrats. That is what all the statistics show.

The Democrats have for four years presided over a terrible deterioration in living class standards for the working class, while the affluent upper middle class and the top 10% have increased their wealth.

They have supported Israel's genocide in Gaza, and spent billions of dollars on the war in Ukraine - all the while cutting access to health, public education etc.

Biden became a figure of hatred in the working class when he stepped in and illegalised the rail workers' strike.

And all the while, during the election campaign, Biden and Harris both exhibited the utmost indifference, and contempt, for the working class.

Biden's Porto Rico comment echoed Clinton's "deplorables" comment in 2016.

Why would any working class family have any motivation to vote for more of the same under Harris?

Millions of US workers either did not turn up at the polls, or in an outburst of rage, which Trump knew how to exploit, voted for Trump.

But that is not genuine support. It is the product of social anger. And that anger can and will be turned against Trump very rapidly.

It's such gibberish that Trump supporters just hear what they want to hear.

It's how 2 different Trump supporters can hold 2 mutually exclusive positions and both still feverishly support him.

I think this story has a long way to play out yet, and as such, will land squarely in Stinker’s lap as he takes office.

Will be very interesting to see how he handles the ramifications. Might prove a bit too multi-headed for Donny.

It's choose your own adventure.

You get to pick what parts of what he says you hear, then you get to pick which part he means, and which are 'just jokes'.
