Agreed. Or another scary one is putin misreading trump and invades a nato country thinking trump won't care but trump does retaliate but i suspect your version is more likely. Hopefully we are wrongThe big danger is Trump misreading Putin, Putin invading a NATO member with Trump then turning around and saying 'fuck that' and letting them get on with it. Or Trump pulling the plug on NATO first and then it all kicking off. Either way, with Trump in charge things could get very iffy in our part of the world...
The idea that any die-hard maga types would walk away because of a slight disagreement over choice of VP is pure fantasy. These are people still worshipping Trump as some kind of deity after he's been found guilty of sexual assault and had a judge declare it materially true that he's an actual rapist.is there anything new in there that would make it a strategic error? It all looks fairly bland.
Donald Trump does not get post-shooting poll boost
A new poll shows Donald Trump leading Joe Biden by just one percentage point ahead of November's election.www.newsweek.com
Immigrants going over the wall to praise trump. What a whirlwind!Unlike her who was out of office within days of the incident.
Fuck Thatcher

Fuck Temu Thatcher (Truss)

Doesn't show it in that article - is that from somewhere else?50% of the "Trump base" hates Vance
For what reason(s) do they hate him? ( i know very little about him atm beyond he "doesn't care what happens to ukraine" and thinks the uk is an "islamic country with nukes". That's enough for me to dislike him but what about the maga faithful? )50% of the "Trump base" hates Vance
It's more likely now than it's ever been.In 2016 there were urbanites insisting that Trump would definitely start WW3, and being quite hysterical about it all, and yet here we all are.
Right wing Xwitter: i won't post the sources here, considers Vance to be a "never-trumper" < from 2016-2021, Vance made VERY harsh comments against trump: including calling him "obnoxious", "hitler" and not voting for him in 2016.Doesn't show it in that article - is that from somewhere else?
Definitely. Since 2021 or so.It's more likely now than it's ever been.
Maybe more than that if he pulls the us out of nato. Even if he doesn't do that, i'm not sure i'd trust trump to actually invoke article 5 if push came to shove and putin may not either. Hopefully i'm being hyperbolic but fucks knows with trump and his followers these days.It's more likely now than it's ever been.
Putin given the right to take Eastern Europe,
I did read that but isn't he a trump arselicker now? Still i guess that might make some of trumps followers suspicious of him but i can't see them voting biden as a result.Right wing Xwitter: i won't post the sources here, considers Vance to be a "never-trumper" < from 2016-2021, Vance made VERY harsh comments against trump: including calling him "obnoxious", "hitler" and not voting for him in 2016.
Think it's more a case of who turns out in numbers and where rather than changing minds now.I did read that but isn't he a trump arselicker now? Still i guess that might make some of trumps followers suspicious of him but i can't see them voting biden as a result.

Until he gets into power againRobert Evans of Behind the Bastards fame points out that Trump has dropped the pledge of a nationwide abortion ban from the party manifesto and distanced himself from Project 2025. Not that that makes him any less terrifying but could be a motivation for republicans wanting him gone

If that's true I can't see it going down well with a lot of trump supporters.having a poc as a wife and wanting to be tied to trump is a weird sort of masochism
Trump's not getting any younger in his 70s. Bumped his head on a bullet the other day and fell over...VP pick is significantStrategic error by Trump in selecting Vance as VP; perhaps fatal (?)
If that's true I can't see it going down well with a lot of trump supporters.
hindu, and a yale grad.If that's true
I don't think the Russian military is going to be in a position to be invading any Nato countries anytime soon.The big danger is Trump misreading Putin, Putin invading a NATO member with Trump then turning around and saying 'fuck that' and letting them get on with it. Or Trump pulling the plug on NATO first and then it all kicking off. Either way, with Trump in charge things could get very iffy in our part of the world...
Trump and his supporters are strongly anti-China. Makes the support for Putin all the more odd, but logic isn't their strong point.It's more likely now than it's ever been.
Putin given the right to take Eastern Europe, Xi allowed to take Taiwan, all under the say so of America's isolationist king, allowed to get away with it by the Supreme Court he appointed.

A completely misinformed one too.I'd never heard of him before but see his comments about the UK being an "islamic" country with nukes. Yeah he's a RW tosser.
Russian people are white, extremely patriarchal, macho and homophobic, basically just the same as Trump.
