Man, he's gonna be in till 2024 huh? I mean he's a vulgar shit head that is getting lucky repeatedly. The pieces happend to line up in his favor. Fortunate son of a bitch.
Being proud of our president's achievements doesn't make one a troll
You need to learn to embrace our leader. He isn't going anywhere anytime soon
Because if it comes at the hands of a man actively name-calling foreign leaders on Twitter taunting them that our nuclear arsenal - which is only good for killing MILLIONS OF PEOPLE and wrecking the shit out of the environment for millions more - is bigger than theirs. Also, threatening to use said arsenal. He hasn't got the empathy of a fly and surrounds himself with hawks so I can't quite believe that the trajectory from here is nothing but peace. But, hey, fingers crossed to be wrong on that count.you know what, trump is president and these americans are being released. those are facts. it happened under this administration. so this is a very good and positive development that should surely push in the direction of
peace. how could it not?
Just like Trump's reelection chances, I wouldn't put your eggs all in one basket just yet.
If you know anything about Trump and his business dealings over the last 40 years, you'd understand this guy is not an above-board businessman. He's been involved in a lot of shady stuff over the years, much of which includes close involvement with both Italian and Russian Mafiosos (and, by extension, Russian Oligarchs and the Russian State).
As someone from New Jersey who's been dealing with his sleazy shit for approximately the last 40 years, I have to laugh at what people from other parts of the country think they know about this guy.
And if you are from NY or NJ, you are either young or have your head in the sand.
None of this shit matters when it comes to politics. None of his base cares about any of this. And as long as he keeps getting "lucky", the news will keep covering his streaks of luck
CNN's front page less than a week ago had an article attributing the North/South Korean thaw to Trump
Trump deserves credit for Korean thaw

This isn't Fox News, but CNN. The same CNN which has been a target by Trump

I agree with you in regards to nothing being certain, but if he can mantain even a fraction of the success he's managed somewhat recently on a consistent basis going forward, it's a lockYeah, the media is shitty for the clicks and its bottom line (as Michelle Wolf exposed at the WHCD), but Trump's approval rating is still shit.
People outside his rather small base don't really like him. I think people have already made up their minds about who they are going to vote for next time. And domestic matters involving the economy and jobs are much more important than anything that could happen with the Koreas in terms of influencing the outcome of the next election.
With that being said, I'd say realistic, non-hyperbolic odds of Trump getting reelected are 40% chance of winning to 60% chance of losing.
Still, the summit between Kim and Moon keeps alive the possibility of a legacy win for Trump that would rank as one of the top presidential achievements since World War II.
A legacy win with N/S Korea will dwarf any potential legal issues that may ariseSo we've got one thread that says his legal team is in flames and he's admitting to crimes and in trouble. But this thread says he's lucky and/or awesome and gonna be Prez for life. So which is it everybody?

Key word being "supposed"This is a pretty pathetic way to think and literally in opposition of everything American is supposed to stand for. I don't give a shit if he was FDR and won WW2, committing crimes is serious.
It's not a news cycle you just dwarf out.

To quote CNN:
When you have even CNN saying Trump earned a legacy win unrivaled since WWII, democrats are in serious trouble
Key word being "supposed"
Reality and your ideal view of what OUGHT to be are in complete disconnect
Is that "Fake News" CNN we're talking about? No self-respecting Trump supporter listens to them anyway. They'd all be paying far more attention to Fox News who congratulates the president for everything he does day-in, day-out anyway. This will just get lost amongst all the rest of the ass-kissing.When you have even CNN saying Trump earned a legacy win unrivaled since WWII, democrats are in serious trouble
Most conservatives do rememberHaha, Americans don't remember what happened yesterday in the news cycle. Most Americans don't give a damn about what happens in the Koreas, especially when that is 2 years removed from the general elections.
So you don't see how terrible this would be for the country going forward? That the President and other politicians get to literally be above the law as long as they just bring something home to the voters to show they aren't completely incompetent?
We're venturing awfully close to "at least he kept the trains running on time" territory here. I strongly suggest you rethink your belief system and how much of your own identity you attach to PUBLIC SERVANTS.
Most conservatives do remember
Just look at how long they've been ranting about Benghazi, the Clintons, 9/11 as a justification for action/legislation, etc
A major international win will not be forgotten
Add the nobel peace prize on top of it...which I have no doubt he will win
IOW: Trump's base will remember Trump's wins.Most conservatives do remember

Who do you legitimately believe the democrats have that will give him a run for his money? Their potential candidates are pathetic to say the least. Bernie probably won't even be alive by 2024There's no safe bet that he will be winning the Nobel Peace Prize. On top of that, conservatives make up a minority of the country and liberals/progressives/Democrats have been mobilized by their unwavering hatred for the man.
This is going to be a very hard upcoming general election for Trump regardless what he manages to do.
Not a hypocrite exactly, just self-servingI sincerely doubt you'd be spewing the same nonsense if this ended with Clinton winning and her campaign was in this much trouble. You're no better than those brainwashed fools who thought Al Franken should have stayed around. Applying one set of rules for your team versus the other. Give me a break with your peace, just say you're a blatant hypocrite.
I still think this is some grand plan by Putin to get Trump re-elected. I don't know how, but it's a feeling.

I can only speak for myself but they should truly direct their efforts to more fruitful endeavorsPretty sure you're a self-serving hypocrite in this case. It's nice to see some of you admit it and be open about it. Some of the poor souls on this forum genuinely believe that evidence of wrongdoing will somehow sway folks like yourself or the Sean Hannitys of the world to change their tune.
Has nothing to do with being pedantic, you can't just claim that anything being beneficial for trump is catastrophic for "humanity," and trying to prove it with that hypothetical is bizarre.
I think like dems did in 2016 R's are underestimating a sleeping giant. There is evidence of this accross the country.. A collective mindset has been instilled in a generation of people. Trump must lose, and no deal in north Korea is going to change our minds. Trump is a cataclysm and a bane on humanity and his defeat has become the mission of many people.It doesn't matter anymore. It's no longer a game about a charismatic individual. That ended with the last election.
It is now squarely a partisan game. And it's likely the number of Democrats, Independents, and Moderate Republicans that will vote against Trump in the upcoming General will negate his second term.
Are you suggesting Hillary was more charismatic than Trump? Previous election had much to do with charisma. Hillary was one of the most uncharismatic people to ever existIt doesn't matter anymore. It's no longer a game about a charismatic individual. That ended with the last election.

Hopefully I'll be dead by then. If not, I guess I'll reap what I sowI'll leave you with this parting thought. The mentality which you're feeding will only get worse from here. The most unsavory and vile human beings will see the immunity granted by the rampant partisan warring that's going on and will seek to exploit it. See Roy Moore, Anthony Weiner, and Joe Arpaio. Martin Shrkeli even tried to rally a defense against his crimes by saying he being persecuted for being a Republican but it failed because he's too much of a scumbag. Sooner or later, someone truly evil and effective that you DON'T support will take advantage of these new standards and whatever short term gain you netted will have not been worth it.
