“We expect casualties with something like this,” [Donald Trump] said. “We have three, but we expect casualties - but in the end it’s going to be a great deal for the world.”
So, follow me on this. Iraq’s population was actually initially happy saddam had been deposed. And that turned into a $16T, 15 year, million life quagmire. And Iraq is still a weak, uncooperative country. I can’t imagine taking over Iran, a country that hates us and accepts its leadership, with weapons systems orders of magnitude greater in number, and far more modern equipment.
There can be no good deal for the world. I feel like I’m listening to a car salesman, but he’s the president. He’s literally bribing the military industrial complex to keep himself in power post-term and selling it as a good thing. Uuuuugh.
That’s all this asshole ever was and ever will be, really. Guy made shitty real estate deals as a nepobaby failson and had a very big mouth. That’s pretty much all he is.
Most of the people in NYC, and probably most of the people on the Eastern seaboard, tended to know who he was even by the early 90s. If they paid even the least bit of attention. But that stupid gameshow and that dumb book gave a whole lot of idiots the idea that he was really something more and somehow worthy of giving any power.
This is it, 100% perfect. He was the poster boy for the blowhard business loser. By the early 90s, the NY times was reporting on investigations into money laundering schemes with Russian Oligarchs/mobsters.
His bank was Deutsche Bank, which was dubbed “the world’s dirtiest bank” when investigations showed that their customers included corrupt business executives, dictators, terrorists, cartels, etc. He was traveling in rough circles by then, and it was well-known. His FBI file must have filled an entire cabinet, and that was in the early 90s.
So imagine Comey’s and the FBI’s reaction, years later, when this known criminal was getting closer and closer to the White House, and they see all that’s going on with Russia and such? Trump has always characterized their investigations into him as spying, but they were doing exactly what they were supposed to do - investigate threats to national security.
Well if your goal is laundering money and not making a profit, it makes sense. Usually you do both at the same time though because casinos basically print money. Which just proves even more how stupid he is honestly.
He’s always taken advantage of greedy people. Its his super power, and he’s got plenty of greedy people in America. The greedy people are okay with it because its what they would do if they had as much power as Trump.
Is there a betting pool on his Executive Order for a Draft? When there is, I got January 2027, right after the election, and after Christmas. You don’t want this being the topic of discussion during the family get-togethers. Surprise them in the New Year.

He bankrupted a casino TWICE.

Accepts their leadership with a gun to their head you mean?
Some yes, some no. They’re still a theocracy by popular decision, in spite of changing demographics. Last I checked, 60% happy, 40% unhappy

Also, lots of loopholes for wealthy kids.
