What will really happen:

They'll privatise a heap of positions that just happen to be owned by one of their shill companies, at a higher cost than public but with the promise of "increased efficiency" to offset the extra cost. Then they'll deliver half of the original work at double the cost.

I heard that they are looking to cut $1 Trillion from the budget.

Be interesting where they cut it from. Hope it is from health and Social Security. Won't be defense.

My calculator doesn't have enough zeros but not sure that is close to 2 trillion.

I am hoping Education, Health, Veterans and Social Security get gutted first.

Imagine spending 912 billion on health and still not having universal healthcare. Talk about inefficiency.

Every chance he could ran for the white house just to avoid prison. Won't be shocked he does barely anything just play golf majority of the time.

The nature of the policies that Trump will try to carry out is revealed by the personnel he has already appointed.
There are only two criteria for the nominees so far announced: complete alignment with the fascist policies Trump seeks to put into place and unquestioning personal loyalty to the would-be fuhrer.

Sec of State: Mark Rubio - ferocious anticommunist, a rabid advocate for confrontation with China, and with Iran, slavish loyalty to Trump

National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz -current army colonel, former Green Beret. Also an anti-China hawk who is expected to spearhead an even more confrontational and belligerent policy towards Beijing than that pursued by the Biden-Harris administration.

US Ambassador to the UN, Elisa Stefanik - has been a key participant in the bipartisan campaign of Democrats and Republicans to slander anti-genocide students as "anti-Semitic". She played a major role in forcing the resignation of several university presidents because they did not crack down "hard enough" on the anti-genocide protests.

CIA Director - John Ratcliffe, whose major qualification for this role is his utter servility and sycophancy towards Trump. He has no background whatsoever in intelligence.

Secretary of Defence - Pete Hegseth, a "surprise pick".
Now a major in the Army Reserve, Hegseth deployed to the US military base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba during the Bush administration’s “war on terror,” then volunteered for the war in Iraq, where he commanded platoons in Baghdad and Samarra. He later served as a counterinsurgency instructor for the Army in Kabul, Afghanistan.

In 2019, while on the “Fox & Friends” talkshow, Hegseth led a campaign for the exoneration of three soldiers convicted or awaiting trial before military courts for war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan. The crimes included the summary execution of unarmed prisoners and the murder of children and old men.

It is clear that Hegseth's qualification for his role in the Trump administration is his advocacy of military war criminals, and therefore of war crimes.

White House Chief of Staff for Policy - Stephen Miller, a fascist ideologue responsible for the separation of thousands of immigrant children from their families during Trump’s first term. This position that will put him in charge not only of immigration but of virtually all domestic policy.

"Border Czar" - Tom Honan, the former acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in the first Trump administration and a longtime advocate and defender of mass deportations.

He has explained that he will put an end to "family separations" caused by deportations by instead deporting the entire familiy, even if one or more members are US citizens.

He has publicly declared that as soon as Trump takes office, there will be an immediate deportation of 1.5 million so called "criminal' immigrants. Most of these have committed no crime whatseover, not hurting anyone.

Such mass deportation policies will require the use of the military, and police state measures.

the governor of ny could pardon trump state charges but guilty verdict would stand . Trump wants charges reversed so he wont be known as a first felon president

The lolz would be immense if he gets jail time.

Aka the English model.

If you think Trump is scared of prison, you are deluding yourself.
Trump has taken the measure of the Democrats.
He has realised since Jan 7 2021 that they had no intention of bringing him to trial for his crimes against the US Constitution.

Years of expensive court battles later...

 

[IlovethePies]

Years of expensive court battles later...

Precisely. Those battles were a just that...a swarm of annoying flies.
Just used his almost infinite resources to swat the flies away (while his really historic crimes against American democracy at large remained totally unchallenged).

wont serve , but he desperately wants conviction off the books, as i wrote a pardon stops that?

This is just a non-issue.

One of two things happens:

a) he abolishes elections and becomes a presidential dictator
OR
b) he is overthrown by a movement from below, in which case he will be tried for his political crimes, which are of a totally different scale of magnitude to whatever crimes he has also committed against individuals.
c) Yes, he will also be tried for the individual crimes, but by that time he will already be spending the rest of his time behind bars.

He would care if he got jail time… even before being re-elected as an ex president he has secret service detail regardless of where he is

I think you misread Trump.

He is happy to be a "convicted" felon, because it was the swamp, the "deep state", the "Marxist Democrats" who convicted him, and they will pay the price.

This has been his propaganda for a long time to mobilise his hard core fascist base.

And now, the issue of Trump being "convicted" has quite literally been abolished. Biden and Harris are falling over themselves to pledge a "peaceful transfer of power" to trump, even though only a week or so ago, Harris was warning that Trump is a fascist.

How things change!

Obama is not one

 

[IlovethePies]

Huh???

Not sure what you mean.

No Democrat is a Marxist.

they are all pro capitalist politicians who defend the profits of Wall Street. Trump calls them "Marxists" because he is so far to the right that any kind of party not committed to the total removal of any restraints to corporate profit (pollution controls, minimum wage controls, health and safety controls, public health and education spending) is to him a "Marxist" government. He wants to reinstate the same kind of capitalism that existed in Britain in the early 1800's - ie child labor, social murder.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

Right. As if the humanitarian reasons weren't well known beforehand. Would be the most cynical of changes if he did that.

Don't disagree with any of that. I was suggesting that at least there would be a reasonable outcome in the highly unlikely event that Trump or his key advisers grew some conscience and backtracked on mass deportations. Highly unlikely as in practically impossible.

The reason that mass deportations might not happen is that some of those peanuts finally start to realise the (direct and indirect) costs of the program are economy-breaking.
