World News Thoughts on Trump's Second Term so far?

[Khastle]

Seems to be making big steps already: closing the border and releasing Jan 6, interested to see where else he goes from here.

No way, he even pardoned Dread Pirate? What did Trump mean by this?

Lefties have a meltdown about Musk doing "sieg" hand gesture.

In general some changes seem rather drastic. It looks like he know that he has only one more go at it and wants to make usa the tradland. Will see how quickly he will slip towards being good friends with Russia and China

Pretty based so far. We'll see how this all pans out. I want to see the RFK, JFK, and MLK files when they get released. I'd imagine most of it was burned long ago, though.

I think he's been doing a good job. Not a lot this has affected me personally so far. But since when does anything happen?

I couldn't be happier with my vote. Trump isn't just doing what I expected, he's doing what I hoped.

The left will still fight him at ever turn, of course. But if he keeps up this momentum for his entire term the country, and the world, will look VERY different by the time he's out of office.

For America's flaws I do envy that its the last western nation where its still possible to get someone actually likeable and motivated in office. When was the last time Britain, Mainland Europe, Australia, New Zealand, etc, had that privilege? We can't even get anyone with new ideas in as each time it's tried every centre left, far left, and apparently "right wing" party just makes a coliation to block them getting office and then slowly wittles them down so by next election they don't even exist.

I'm more dissatisfied with my vote now than I was 4 months ago.

NOTHING HAS HAPPENED.

Better get used to it. The mask has fallen, democrats are rapists and pedos and everyone knows is

Democracy is gay

I'm hoping Trump completes the Lincoln path he started on and just burns this whole thing to the ground and establishes monarchy in the US

 

[Khastle]

Trump really did it, huh...

I'll put my fell for it again award on

I was generally pleased with most of his actions that are widely known and discussed in the mainstream. There are two things I have found myself directly against that are difficult to compromise with.
The Iran-Israel conflict is an obvious one. It's no brave statement to say we shouldn't murder and die in a conflict where NEITHER side likes us.
In the current budget bill, there is a mandate for the Bureau of Land Management and the US Forest Service to sell off 2 million acres of public land over the next five years. With close to 250,000 acres being available for potential sale already. While it is stated that its to help the housing market and to help pay for tax cuts and reduce federal spending, I have a feeling that the same developers who always get wealthy from these situations will simply get wealthy again, at the expense of the public, yet again but in a different way.

I am not politically educated enough to understand the nuances and reasons behind these things, but as low-brow as it sounds, "I know when something don't feel right".
