UPDATE: Donald Trump Takes Office as the 47th US President

Baby boomers and older often fall for the bs laid out by folks like Cory Booker. They support Schumer and the like. They are essentially, part of the problem.
I think Schumer is a useful tool. He has power and the only way to utilize that power is too play the game. I HATE the game, but the only way to get his power is to take it via electoral process. If you want to BE the man, you've got to BEAT the man. The problem is that everybody just wants to get their little taste of power and that's it

And I really can't blame Schumer. He is what he is, an old dummy, but people keep voting him back into office. If I was an old, dummy (and I am) HELL YEAH, I'mma keep doing this cushy ass job!!! You would think someone younger would be able to unseat him with Mamdani in office, but we'll see. The problem is, he's got all the money in NY behind him and giant rusty tank that if you're not careful will mow you down.
 
Trump: 90% of their missiles destroyed

US intel: They are Nowhere near destroyed

Trump: Xi Jinping told me he is not sending weapons to Iran

US intel: China is helping them build missiles

Trump: Iran will take 20 years to recover

US intel: They have recovered faster than expected and stockpiles are at 100%

No one has exposed Trump’s lies quite like U.S. intelligence

BREAKING: US Agrees to Release $12 Billion in Iranian Funds:

A regional source reports:

$12 billion has been deposited in Qatari banks
High-level Iranian delegation is currently in Qatar to negotiate the transfer to Iran
Trump can politically sell this as money coming from “Qatar” rather than directly from the United States.


 
...so we disagree to agree?!?!? The hell??? This has got to be the NICEST disagreement in BGOL's history!!! "NO, YOU'RE NICER THAN I AM!!!!" FCUK YOU SIR! YOU'RE NICER THAN ME!!!!" "You're so nice you took ICE out just because you didn't want that associated with you! You're just 'N'!!!"
 
Haven't been in this thread for a hot minute. I think we all knew it would be bad, but I think the most surprising is how complicit so many are. I think this was one of the things that surprised Obama. He assumed there were enough people that believed in the constitution and ideals of the law to prevent Donald Trump from becoming what he's morphed into.

Boy was he wrong!

Worse, the more this continues, the more complicit those in power become, and the further we move from normalcy to something else.

This country will never be the same!
 
I did not mean it that way.

20 somethings have been getting dumber and dumber for a couple of generations. Personally, I think the current crop of 20 somethings are significantly smarter than 10, 20 years ago.

If we are to avoid completely falling back into an apartheid state, young people are key. They have historically (60s and prior) been the ones who drive significant change.

I am not disagreeing with the gist of what you said. It did seem a bit idealistic, but I was not trying to characterize you thusly.

I stand corrected.

I don't like all this decency and respect around here :lol:

Bruh a lot of people were wrong including people on this board. I can remember saying that the so called checks and balances won't be a thing. It was clear to see what was coming if he were to get a second term by looking at the things he was doing in his first term. It was clear to see that the Republican party despite all their talk of respecting the constitution were full of shit. Before Trump was reelected people were defending Trump asking how is Trump racist, when did Trump act like a dictator, why would be a dictator in a second term if he didn't do so in his first term. All that shit was complete delusion.

These people can solve all their white replacement bullshit by simply raising the minimum wage to a liveable wage.
No, it’s too late for that. They missed the boat by 40 years. You know a good chunk of them cannot have kids.
