There was no sound.

Take the cotton wool out of your ears or learn to use your computer properly.

My ears are clear, my machine is fine, your link is for crap.

Nope. everything comes thru fine: youtube, clips in different formats from blogs. Only sculptor's is mute. It's a tik tok: do I have to install an app? If so: I'm never gonna hear it cuz I'm not installin' tik tok.

Nope, I'm just using chrome on a normal Windows desktop and I didn't even have to sign up for a tikkity tok akkount.

I mean technically it doesn't matter much, sculptor is targetting the wrong guy there. Henry is the only one who likes Trump on the basis of predicates that are true of Trump. He likes that Trump is a semi-human fuckboi with a squirrel taped to his head. So a video that shows that Trump is a buffoon who announces the death of some adversary with a rambling screed about door knocking and then some shallow boasting doesn't change much.

It's others who swear by Trump that believe he is a man of great will, intellect and judgment, not so much Henry.

Wizard22 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 02, 2023 8:46 am The second important factor, is that after the Bush presidency debacles, the Liberal-Left felt that they had an unimpeded pathway to Total power and control, over the entire United States. The Obama administration expected to walkover the 2020 elections, with Hilary Clinton. That Trump disrupted their path for total control, irked them and drove them into madness. They thought and expected, no resistance to their takeover.

Yes, I think that's true, for sure.

I remember hearing a news "report" in my country, asking the question, "How will the Republicans survive their last defeat at the hands of Clinton?" They were just that confident that Hellery was going to have a landslide victory, and potentially wipe out the other side...maybe even permanently. When the opposite happened, they all went crazy. The rhetoric on the same channels became, "How could this awful thing happen?"

But the Trump presidency didn't hurt America at all. In fact, even if we say Trump had nothing to do with it, America somehow ended up being far better off with Trump in charge than with Biden. So even if we assume that Trump was just a "lame duck" president, having that "lame duck" was much better for American fortunes than having the Democrats in charge. Doing nothing at all was much better for the country and for the world than having Biden and the rest doing what they're doing. And that's now totally obvious.

Trump might be nothing. We can allow that. But his "nothing" has shown to be waaaay more successful and healthy for America than the Democrats' "something."

Presently, DT seems to be the only alternative to the present régime.

You only had to watch a couple of Trump's press conferences when he was president to realise he had no understanding of whatever he was trying to answer questions about. Incompetent doesn't even begin to describe his performance in the role. I don't care about that as far as the USA is concerned, but it has worrying implications for the rest of the world.

I'm pretty sure that 'bumbling psychopath' is part of the presidential job description.
So you prefer the 'slick psychopath' style of an Obama perhaps? Or the 'psychopathic clown' style of Bush Jr?
Personally I found Trump to be somewhat less psychopathic than others, although hardly a nice or even decent person none the less. He's extremely chlldish and vindictive. He's not even really a Republican. I doubt if he's religious, and definitely doubt that he's ever been anti-choice when it comes to abortion (I bet he's paid for a fair few in his time). I don't 'think' he's a warmonger. He gave an interview a couple of decades ago where he was expressing sadness at the horrors the US has inflicted on the people of Iraq (although that could have been an act too).

Age, this is my thread.

My thread, my rules.

Stick to the topic.

Vote Trump 2024.

Thank you.

I thought once a thread is started it’s everybody’s threat. I’m pretty sure that the forum rules apply even if you think it’s your thread.

Can't watch it anyway. There's a big box demanding I sign up to TikTok. Umm. No thanks. 'Odd' that there was no body and all the alleged executioners died a week later in a helicopter crash.
