Im not sure Biden was hiding things like the CHIPS Act and action on the border.

Trump is far more performative and is all about showing his/the US perceived strength though. For all the good that Biden may have done, he was perceived as weak and fragile by the end

And yet I think comparatively few people could tell you what the CHIPS Act is and how Biden got it passed.

Trump gets far more free press. Not sure what you can do about that TBH. Same issues as Labour here, both fringes and the right against him, still gets blamed.

Trump demands the additional press though. Hes also engaging with them far more. Biden in recent times and then Harris initially in the presidential race, swerved them. I sympathise with Starmer and Reeves, they’ve been dealt a shit hand, but communication and clear messaging has been a major issue for them

Well, he threatens to shut them down or bog them down with lawsuits I suppose. Again, not the markings of a fascist at all.

It's a fair assumption for him to make. And even if they were the cult like fanbase would probably mentally retrain their memories to fit with the Trump narrative.

Well is he trolling the rest of us or was it always good cop bad cop routine, America wins for itself the prize either way, God moves in mysterious ways whomever owns the territory, kind of feels like it's the US to me, but then he did have some issues with the Local ones last term with his rhetoric, probably just grifting to get more out of them.

Some of the stories coming out about what the Nerd Reich is doing are insane. Putting back doors in, pushing straight to prod, treating vital govt systems like a web app hackathon. The Russians and Chinese hackers must think all their christmases have come early.

I hope the entire Arab world stands up to him and threatens to cut off the oil and gas supply to US and a total trade embargo. He clearly wants to add war criminal to his total crackpot persona (if he isn't already)!
I wonder what the world's reaction would be if he said he would bring peace to the region by taking possession of Israel instead, and resettle their people elsewhere.
Assassination, anyone? I mean a proper one, not just the staged ones in the run-up to the election!

It’s so risky because he’s such an arrogant wanker he thinks everyone will do as he says
Which I suppose is what’s happened in his life
Only needs a few other men will small dicks to start waving them for him to get a bloody nose

Especially Jordan and usaid and Saudi and quatar for Palestine
Canada for fuel
Not sure what we have a flag maybe and pompous elitist private education but many countries can easily give him a bloody nose

Denmark and ozempic

As I understand it part of the strategy is to encourage investment in US manufacturing to bring it back from China and reduce the huge deficit the US has. He's also talked about replacing income tax with tariffs. He is definitely taking a bold a gamble because it is disrupting the way things have evolved over the last 25 or 30, even 100 years.

Time will tell.

Manufacturing does not happen without raw materials though, does it? They're heavily dependent on China for importing lots of minerals used in high tech manufacture.

The strategy is to hand over enormous sums of wealth to the already very wealthy by eliminating tax and most of the government.

Also lots of valuable data and to weaken security against foreign threats and hobble the CIA it seems. Basically reduce Americas power on a global scale and state capacity.

The blue states should secede and merge with Canada. See how long the rump US lasts without being propped up by the states which actually raise money.

I laugh but total victory by the repressive regimes isn’t funny. But if I don’t laugh I’ll cry. Government of idiots by idiots. China couldn’t have done better if they’re got Xi Jinping in with some fake tan and a blonde wig.
