Who do I think the idea is? Well if it's a modern contemporary of someone promoting this idea, then Ben Gvir.
Trumps just applying the finishing touches.
And no Billy, I don't agree with any of it.

I dont care whose solution this is, its ridiculous. Trump came out with it so as far as he and his supporters are concerned its his idea. Whose idea do you think it is, the Palestinians!? Sure he and Benny boy may have cooked this up together but who cares, its the delivery of this idea that is going to fail to win anyone over.
The "radical idea" itself of providing the Palestinians with a "new home" is neither new or terrible if it has their interests at the centre of it, which a good politician could sell to the International community. But to base it on the US "owning" a piece of politically volatile land and turn the Palestinians home into a fucking Isreali Riviera is just incendiary to those Countries and Organisations that are sympathetic to Palestine or are simply anti American.

Trump also signed an Executive order banning men from woman’s sports.
But I’m really looking forward to watching the US take out the Mexican Drug Cartels, I’m reading they think they have half a chance in a fight with the border patrol.
I Hope the reports are true and the Cartels do step up, will be a lot of fun watching tha Apache helicopters and the F22 and F35’s obliterate the soppy cunts.
So the focus is the Mexican border again? Because for a second there i thought Canada was the worst most dangerous border ever seen? I've never seen and heard such a compliant bunch of cunts in my life. If Daddy Trump told you the sky is purple you'd believe it. Imagine being a MAGA republican for just one day. It must be great. You're always right. You don't need to know the reality of the world. If someone challenges you on any of the info you say, you just reference to a post by Knokcers_69 that proves you right. Or better you, you can just tell someone to "do their own research" and bob's your uncle, THE DEPT OF EDUCATION IS MARXIST!!!
If you're MAGA, you only real worry would be the price of groceries you desperately wanted to come down. But then Daddy Trump will tell you that Elon Musk making 150 billion since the election, but you losing your benefits is good for the country and then you can feel like you've owned the libs!
Your man is a fucking embarrassment, but he does make a very good ventriloquist puppet, as Bibi had his hand up his arse for two hours and made him say whatever he wanted.

It won’t be entirely funded by USA, there is a lot of money over there, so Qatar and the Saudis are expected to want in on the action.
build homes for the Palestinians (Nice homes so they can settle in a nice area outside of Gaza and finally have their own state and live in comfortable peace.
Sounds like a good idea for all including the Israelis, they won’t have the Palestinians on their border and a big win for the Middle East. Whoever gives up the land for the Palestinian territory will be in on the profits.
Sounds like a good idea to me.
One things for sure, Trumps not short of ideas and he’s not fucking about this time.
They sent out buyout letters to the entire CIA, a huge number of FBI agents too.
And DOGE are exposing USAID as a huge corrupt money pit, guilty of ridiculous amounts of ridiculous spending on all kinds of ridiculous causes outside of the USA. Wait till DOGE is done auditing the Pentagon.
Oh and Trump wants the states to establish its own Sovereign wealth fund.
MAGAZA!
Ffs really!!!!!!!
Sounds like a recipe for a complete meltdown in the Middle East. None of the States or Countries in the area except Isreal would agree to this inc the Saudis. Yeah Trumps not short of ideas is he, but this is his most bonkers idea yet.
Its all very well having a radical solution to the problem but politically this is just madness. He cant unilaterally decide to tear up the agreements for the 2 state solution in this region.
You seem to think this is some sort of fun game. The Middle East is powder keg at the best of times adding a US land grab would be potentially catastrophic. Can see Iran and Syria and the terrorist organisations licking their lips at the increased support they're gonna get based on this.
Your blind support for the American idiot is clearly clouding your judgement. But we know your judgement is easily clouded.

Democary doesn't work and is the reason why then US is weaker. Republicism is better. This means the candidates for US presidency are coming from the elite. The best presidenst like George Bush have come from tjhis system. Since then the US has had mediocrity.

Let's be honest the rhetoric he was spewing when he lost the election before last was borderline unhinged, he essentially whipped up his base to the point of an attempted coup, resulting in fatalities.
What nonsense. He asked for peaceful protest. He offered National Guard to help protect Capitol Hill. There was never an attempt at a coup. The police are on film aiding people towards and into Capitol Hill.Haha, righto, love these attempts to rewrite history, So what's the story in your tin foiled hatted brain? It was a conspiracy by the police to make Trump supporters look bad? Bet you were one of those that believed bisonhead was an illuminati plant because of his tattoo too, turned out it was from a computer game
It’s not rewriting history. It’s factual, and based on evidence easily attainable.

Re: The Official Politics Thread (enter at your own risk)
I can agree with some of that
I do get the appeal of him not being a classic politician, it IS refreshing for someone not to be afraid of offending the usual suspects, and yes he has carried out a couple of the promises that his was elected on, but they were easy quick wins. Once the low hanging fruit is picked I think his ego may take him to more extreme areas to get the worship from some of his more fringe support.
Let's be honest the rhetoric he was spewing when he lost the election before last was borderline unhinged, he essentially whipped up his base to the point of an attempted coup, resulting in fatalities. He's never shown any sort of reflection that any of what happened was bad. He's a narcissist sociopath, pretty much anyone that's ever worked with him has stated this. We'll see how far he's willing to go this time

Re: The Official Politics Thread (enter at your own risk)
I'm not blind in any way, I can totally see why people find Trump unlikeable. But he was elected on promises he made and he is keeping them. The majority of yanks are sick and tired of all the DEI and pronoun shit, Trump has started to rid the federal institutions of this plague.
He has acted swiftly in regards to border control, again,something the American public voted for.
The whole tarrif issue is a case of wait and see, he could well be using scare tactics which worked perfectly well with Columbia the other day.
He doesn't act like a statesman because he isn't a Politician, thats how it works over there,anyone can run for office. And speaking if statesmanship, our current prime minister,our foreign secretary,the next UK ambassador to America and the current Mayor of London have at various times called him a national, white supremacist,racist etc. Why should he pay any of these (now grovelling) cunts one scintilla of respect?
No doubt he has lied but show meshe person in office who hasn't, in that respect, the're all as bad as each other. If you want an example of lying to gain power, look no further than our own Parliament or the promises made around the Brexit referendum.
Trump has been in office for a whole TWELVE says and in that time he's done more of what Americans want than the previous administration did in four years.

Yep some people in here just cannot comprehend that if you're anti trump it doesn't t mean you supported Biden.
It's because they can only think in black and white, spending too much time on social media where everything's a dumbed down us v them argument.
There will also be a small number here so entrenched after spending time in the pro Trump, anti Vax, deep state, pizza gate, great reset flat earth rabbit hole they are beyond saving and will absolutely never accept anything that shakes their core beliefs

Only I dont actually support either Trump or Biden/Harris so dont have either. Peoples definition of a meltdown seems to be someone debating an issue or who has a strong opinion on something. But whats far worse than a strong opinion is the apathetic blindness from you and others to what he is doing and the way he acts.
The US have had some questionable Presidents like George W, Reagan, Clinton but Trumps ability to politic is non-existent makes them look like Henry Kissinger. He doesnt know how a statesman is supposed to act hes turned it into a circus with his billionaire cronies, the language he uses the idiotic things he says, you think that it doesnt matter that he lies or that he is about to crash the US economy with ridiculous tariiffs thatll start trade wars and markets to fall and Pension funds will be affected. Its not like we are safe from his bonkers policies. He thinks putting tariiffs on countries directly costs those countries, but if US consumers need those products theyll have to pay more for them or the more costly US products impacting inflation figures. It makes no sense.
But you carry on thinking hes a tough mother. What a guy! Yeah he does what he said he'd do. Putins a tough mother do you want him as prime minister? Trump promised to end the Ukraine war on day 1, now no one should have believed that so did he lie or was he stupid or did he just manipulate the electorate. He promised to bring interest rates down they are firmly fixed. Oil prices now at the levels before he was President. So what has he achieved apart from deporting a few thousand immigrants, sacking a load of people, pissing off FEMA and the FAA and banning Transgenderism.

I thought this was a politics thread and would have some sensible fact based discussions you muppets seem totally oblivious to the dogs dinner Trump is making of his first couple of weeks in office. Anyone defending him or suggesting otherwise need to take a look over the pond before commenting.
Do you really think what the US do has no effect on the UK economy!?
