The Trump Presidency 2.0

I appreciate and respect your passion and historical knowledge; the point I’m trying to make (and apparently poorly), is that if ‘we’ do not stop engaging in ‘whataboutism’ where will we land? It just seems so counterproductive .

To add: By “we” I mean both sides of the aisle.
Whattaboutism generally is tiresome, I totally agree. I think whattaboutism is also used as some magic shield.

"Trump is a fascist cause I feel that way!"
"Ok, here are 10 examples of your party doing these specific things that are pretty fascist for the last since 2008 so aren't you a hypocrite?"
"THATS WHATABBOUTISM LET'S JUST START FRESH RIGHT NOW AND MOVE ON."

I suppose it's interesting to think about "what's historically relevant and should be considered" vs "whattaboutism" on issues.
 
Oh that's uh, tight I guess? Are we gonna just speed past this one or...



Our census polling has been broken, and it's been documented. Illegal immigration is a money-maker in many ways for the democrats, this just being one of them. Just like voting and voting registration, dead people get counted, I have seen pregnant women get counted twice (one for the woman, one for the baby), etc.
 
I think it's important for certain members to show acknowledgement of the reality. Everything they said Trump would do in his first term, he didn't do. Biden you betcha did. He continued the weaponization of the DOJ. The DOJ was actively going after concerned parents because they stood up at School board meetings and said that boys in girls bathrooms was wrong. All the things they said Trump would do this term has already been done by the Biden administration...and so far, there hasn't been a tit for tat, partially because President auto-pen pardoned a bunch of people.

When you watch CNN, which is gonna give me a brain aneurism, I'm watching Shermichael Singleton and Scott Jennings point out to the Liberals that this has already happened and they ask them why they didn't stand up then. Because it hasn't been about what is right. It has been about what your ideology is.

Like, a not so significant minority of the Democrats are for terrorism, openly. Their party leadership doesn't disassociate with these people and even attempt to guide their electorate back to the center. We are going to have nationwide pro terrorist protests because the Democrats willfully aligned with terrorist sympathizers in the name of votes. To the point where it has poisoned their entire party. There is no coming back really.

ETA: We can call it whataboutism, but I don't think so. Because look, plain as day, the Biden DOJ (and Obama DOJ) did everything they said Trump was gonna do.

WTF is this?

It IS democrats behaving the same way that they did in the late 1850'S
...thats just hows those silly rabbits roll down here in the lower 48.

I think psychiatrists call it "Projecting"
Psychiatrists such as Joe Vaccaro, Psy.D., and Judith Joseph, M.D., note that projection can stem from anxiety and an extreme lack of self-awareness.
 
This is the part of this whole thread that frustrates me. I find it difficult to believe that if Kamala had won and the ATF was conducting unwarranted door-to-door searches for unregistered firearms in states that require registration, the reactions here would be as unconcerned as they seem.

For me it's an easy choice. I don't believe anybody's home was illegally entered without a warrant. I think it's just a news story with BS "witnesses". In the article posted the main witness stated he heard agent trying to break his door down but went back to sleep. Why did they not break it and drag him out of bed if that's what happened? And who goes back to sleep with people trying to hammer your door down, 2 locks or not?

A targeted enforcement action with the FBI and local LE? We've heard of SWAT busting down the wrong door with a warrant, but never without one.
 
I could go on and on. I want everyone to notice a thing with me. In every thread where we talk politics, culture, LE etc etc etc, I have to read drivel from dorks about "Oh No LoOk At WhAt CoUlD pOsSiBlY hApPeN iT's CoMiNg..." and that thing never comes true. Not once.

Meanwhile, guys like me will say, "Ok, that *could* happen, just like we could find out the Earth really is flat, but I am talking about things that have already happened and continue to happen, and we have proof. Mountains of proof and admissions and arrests and convictions. This has been happening, in one direction, for more than a decade, and you wanna talk about 'well Trump is PLANNING this or he's GOING to do that'." But that's as far as the conversation goes- because it's retarded.

Any day now we'll hear about a speedboat full of nuns racing bundles baby formula to Trinidad and Tobago get mistaken for narco-terrorists and blown out of the ocean. (cross thread points?)


You may not be familiar with the Confederate 1st Missouri Brigade and their ongoing siege of Chicago. They've been at it (unsuccessfully) since 1862.

The FBI has fired multiple employees and dismantled its CR-15 public corruption unit following revelations that Republican lawmakers’ private communications were allegedly monitored during the Biden administration.

Kash Patel says FBI agents fired over monitoring GOP senators
 
What. The. Fuck.

Apparently all the fat generals joined the National Guard.

This photo reminds me of one of my favorite scenes from generation kill…


I saw that photo and coming on the heels of the fat generals speech, the photo makes a lot of people and institutions look ridiculous right now. All of the soldiers in the TXARNG and it mobilized a truckload+ of the morbidly obese. Strong work.

Everything is bigger in Texas, including the double chins.

I think this is probably the best indicator of the SECDEF's speech being spot on. He wasn't making commentary on fat generals, but the whole force.

If you watch the left leaning news, Hegseth hurt a lot of feelings with that speech. Seems people who never served always know what's best for our military.

Which tickles the living fuck out of me considering the abysmal track record that aM3R!K@n MarXi$ts have for bashing and shit talking and experimenting on the military - now all of the sudden, a few thousand lazy lumps of shit get fat shamed and suddenly, the left "cares" about our troops.

Fuck off into the sun you silly leftists.

I remember being told how the APFT wasn't a good test of "fitness". And that the tape test wasn't a good test of bodyfat.

"Sir I can ruck for days"
"Your 2% over on tape"
"But sir I can do this..."
"How about you eat a few less pizzas and hit the gym, I'll be there at 1700"


Mind you, I was always taped. I saw NCO's fudge my numbers the other way to make it look like I was close. I saw my fat senior scout get given two weeks and miraculously he passed because the other NCO synched it...but here's the thing, he got helped out at his next command too somehow, because they liked him.

Some guys struggle to lose weight. I tried to use every resource the Army gave me. Most of these guys don't. Like did y'all see Milley? Do you think the rank and file thinks they need to care about fitness? Do you know how many CSMs and 1SGs aren't exactly moderately fit? But we have to tell our soldiers to get fit?
