The Trump Thread

Tikay10 · December 2024

Hard to believe, but Donald Trump is about to be President again, so whatever you think of him, he'll be making headlines almost daily, so maybe we should have a dedicated Trump thread.

Hopefully many of you will contribute.

Barely a day later, Trump wants to take control of Greenland. Incred.

Seems that the normal rules & laws of life don't apply to Trump.

I want it, give it to me

Trump ally Gaetz paid for sex and drugs while in office, ethics report says

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cj49ynwen8nt

This is the man that Dearest Donald wanted to instal to head up the Justice Department.
Feel free to read that again. Gaetz was having sex with 17 year olds & buying cocaine regularly. And Trump wanted to appoint him to head up the Justice Department.

The mind boggles...

Looks like a villain from a super hero movie.

Trump declares Elon Musk is ‘not going to be president’ amid ongoing taunts over who’s really in charge

The Donald Trump - Elon Musk bromance is coming under strain, as Trump feels Musk is stealing his thunder. And Donald does not like that one bit, he needs to be the undivided centre of attention.

Concern was mooted a few days ago about Lord Mandleson being appointed as our US Ambassador.

"Known associates of Epstein cannot be in positions of power" was the cry. Quite right too.

I think he took his Totty with him, shareises "Epstein Holdings" could have happened.

Hopefully he can over turn the ban on Cuban cigars so they become more available again. The world is doomed nuclear world war three is enevitible the only reason I have mooted on that a bit is because I'm like rather then wallow in anxiety might as well just enjoy the time we have left however long that is.

So just legalise weed and Cuban cigars and alcohol everywhere. If iad the money I'd get a nuclear bunker kit it out with some form of sanitation so constant clean water food supplies electric batteries and several games and consoles for when the nuclear holocaust happens.

Come on trump legalise Cuban cigars

He's off again...

Less than two hours after Trudeau announced his plans to resign, US President-elect Donald Trump took another jab suggesting Canada should merge with the US as its 51st state.

"Many people in Canada LOVE being the 51st State," Trump posted on his social media platform Truth Social.

"If Canada merged with the U.S., there would be no Tariffs, taxes would go way down, and they would be TOTALLY SECURE from the threat of the Russian and Chinese Ships that are constantly surrounding them. Together, what a great Nation it would be!!!"

The last time Trump suggested this was reportedly at his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida in December when Trudeau flew in to discuss the proposed tariffs. Trump has threatened to impose 25 percent tariffs on Canadian goods, which would devastate Canada’s economy.

He had then also mocked Trudeau as the "governor" of the "Great State of Canada".

Hard to imagine, a US President who has no idea how to write properly.

"Russian and Chinese Ships"

Why the capital letter in "Ships"?

And look at this triple exclamation point....

it would be!!!

Looks like it was written by a 6 year old.

And of course the message itself. Having already made it clear he intends to "buy" Greenland & seize back the Panama Canal, now he wants to take over Canada.

Hard to tell if he's (trying to) be serious or just trolling us.

He's forgotten to take his medication again...

Discussing his Son's upcoming visit to Greenland;

"Trump added that Greenland and its people "will benefit tremendously if, and when, it becomes part of our nation".

"We will protect it, and cherish it, from a very vicious outside world," he said. "Make Greenland great again!""
