A recent Gallup poll showed that 97% of Democrat voters disapprove of President Trump's performance while 93% of Republican voters approve. No surprise there. What was missing were the opinions of the Independent voters. They always decide the outcome of U.S. Presidential Elections.

Does that banner actually read (ie not a digital mockup), "Work makes you free"? Uh, "Arbeit macht frei" anyone?

^That's what I'm talking about. I'm not interested in mock ups, they're too easy and just add to the noise. I want to know if the actual slogan on that banner is what TomTV posted. I suspect it is real and I can't believe they're using it. Wait, maybe I can.

For those of us thinking that life will go on as normal with America in rapid decline, this American businessman (in China) will disabuse us of that notion...

This video was posted in Feb 2024.
Before Biden was dumped in favour of Harris.
Before the Trump assassination attempt(s).
Before Nov 5, 2024.
Point being, a lot has changed since.
Given the behaviour down south, I would love to see an update on this with more current factors from which to draw. Thanks for this, DT.

With Washington now militarized, Trump now turns his eye towards another Democrat state: Illinois, starting with Chicago
Can we assume that his move to intimidate Chicago will go as well as Washington?
Let's see which states actually need the military to intervene with their crime rates:
...to the shock of no one. I've made my own predictions about where this is all headed (earlier in this thread) but here's a great theory about why Trump is sending the military into certain states and what the long-term plan could be.
Moe Davis (U.S. Air Force, Retired)
@ColMoeDavis
Not long ago, I would have said there’s no way in hell that this could happen in America, but that was then and this is now. So, here’s the scenario that could unfold:
Trump sends troops (so glad I’m retired) into cities where Democrats are in charge on the pretext that crimes is out of control and he’s restoring order.
That it’s a pretext is clear from the fact that crime rates are higher in many red areas and he’s not sending troops there.
Inevitably there will be an incident involving the troops (if not one will be staged) and that will be used as a pretext to declare martial law.
Trump will assert his power under martial law to suspend civilian authority and take charge of Democratic run cities (or states).
Trump will declare a national emergency and suspend the 2026 elections.
Normally Congress and the courts would assert their checks and balances authorities under the Constitution and intervene, but both are now subservient to Trump.
The national emergency continues into 2028, so elections remain suspended.
Trump begins his third term.
A majority of Americans hope and pray that a clot does what Congress and the courts won’t and stops Trump while some semblance of America remains.
Replies:
There is no question in my mind this is the plan, and Congress is in on it.
1. It explains why Republicans passed the big bill despite massive backlash and pleas from their own constituents. They're not worried about the midterms.
2. California was a test. He failed, because of the strength of Newsom and the media attention it garnered.
But they're still trying. He has laid out the playbook.
- DC is done.
- Chicago, Seattle, Portland are next.
3. He told on himself in 2024, like he always does. The plan is underway.
I said this after I got back from the January 6th insurrection. He tried to do it on J6 but failed. One Qanon woman told me how it would go, 'Listen to
General Flynn' they deploy the military, create an incident, invoke the insurrection act and declare martial law.
Exactly. My retired military QAnon cousin was texting me about Flynn’s martial law plans that were being distributed via Telegram groups in December 2020.
To sum, get the military in there to provoke civil unrest (or do your own false flag operation and blame the protestors), invoke martial law and suspend the 2026 election. Who cares if gerrymandering doesn't let the GOP cheat their way to victory? If the polls start to look like the Democrats will win, which they should, then execute Plan B and grind towards martial law... one that will NEVER end.
Don't vote for right-wing governments, folks. Doesn't matter if they call it "fighting crime", "Strong mayor powers", "the notwithstanding clause", installing their own highly paid supervisor because of "financial mismanagement at the school board", etc. it's all about taking control for themselves and making sure they never lose that power again.

For the past week, there's been rampant online speculation about Trump's health. He hasn't looked that great and now he's not made a public appearance for a few days which is highly unusual for the orange one. Today, that speculation has escalated with #trumpdead trending on Elon Musk's platform.
So even the momentary video proof that he is alive seems to have been discredited and some are demanding the White House produce Trump live, to ensure that he's not rotting in a grave next to Melania on his golf course. Perhaps the Heritage Foundation is quickly getting a body double with a red MAGA cap lined up to take over? But can they stuff the imposter with enough chicken McNuggets fast enough to fatten him up to take on the job? Time will tell.
If memory serves, the last time we saw Trump was last Tuesday (Wed?) where his cabinet praised his holiness non-stop. If you can stomach the sights and sounds of grown adults fighting to lick Trump's boots, the video can be found here:
And now #whereistrump is also trending...

Blood thinners can produce bruising like that. And be careful what you wish for. Not sure I'd want Vance in there... Might not lead to any improvements you might be expecting and could in fact worsen things.

Trump is the glue holding a very uneasy coalition of fascist interests together. When he goes they'll tear each other to pieces competing for control. Vance probably won't last long as leader.

Exactly. Vance can't even decide if he's a good ol' hillbilly or a conservative visionary.
Puppeteer Peter Thiel's hand up the new president's backside will be doing all the talking.

But here's the thing: Vance is detested by MAGA. Do you think he's going to win them over? He's basically Peter Thiel's puppet(as the poster above me already noted).

Also be wary of any Truth Social posts supposedly coming from "Trump" as this one suspiciously doesn't quite sound like Cheeto brains and the guess that it's Stephen Miller is probably accurate. Gavin Newsom's team does a better job impersonating Trump than anyone in Trump's actual circle of imbeciles:
As for JD Vance, I've seen about a half-dozen videos online showing him being booed and yelled at ("Fascist!", "Go home! We don't want you here!", etc) while he has been on one of his many, many vacations on the taxpayer dime. He definitely is the kind of puppet that Peter Thiel would love to have in office since he's so malleable, but yeah he's not popular among the right-wing. If the GOP can keep up the illusion of Trump being alive in order to maintain the MAGA movement, they'll do it even if they have to do it Weekend-at-Bernies style.
When I say malleable, the guy hated Trump 10 years ago, and then changed his mind when given the chance to serve in Trump's office.
Rick Wilson says Trump is dying and Vance knows it. "Rumors from the Trumpverse are that the circle who knows what’s up is very, very small and very, very paranoid." "J.D Vance knows, and he’s moving fast. Thursday’s 'I’m ready to take over' remarks are sure to rankle Trump, and set off more of the backstage muttering among the MAGA Hunger Games contestants," “It’s about to get really, really ugly." Trump needs to just get on with it already.
This is the remark that was referred to, when USA Today asked JD Vance if he'd step up should a "terrible tragedy" befall cheeto-balls:
Who else might be conspiring to take Trump's place (or grab a share of the power if Trump is dead or declared medically unfit for duty as president due to his health problems). Well, two weeks ago, Trump tweeted this mysterious message:
Since it happened right after the failed Russian talks, some thought "Bela" was a codeword to his Russian handlers that he was going to submit to whatever deal the Putin double demanded, in exchange for Russia not releasing the Epstein files to the world. But it seems that this is the more likely reason:
So perhaps a warning to his former ally, Elon Musk, that he knows that Musk is meeting with Rupert Murdoch to forge some kind of alliance now that Musk isn't going to go forward with his "America Party"? Effectively telling Musk "I've got the CIA watching every move you make, pal!"

When a person approaches 80 yrs of age, bruising on hands & arms is common (blood thinners or not) particularly if the individual is active (gardening, pickle ball, digging, moving furniture and pushing the '57 Chevy into a corner in the garage.

From a Canadian perspective...
Is the main stream media finally getting it?

Normally I wouldn't wish a heart attack or stroke on anyone... but a lifelong con man, rapist, pedophile, possible accomplice to murder... I'll make an exception.
I suppose his inner circle could now start circulating AI-generated video of Trump "talking" to stop these rumors, but it won't help them until we see him live on TV and can assess his health ourselves. MAGA and Fox have been trying to kill the speculation without any success... but it has stopped people from talking about the Epstein Files.

You are correct, sir. One thing we can all count on. tRump will do his best to ladle more crazy on us all every single day. And to think that a few very troubled Canadians want to join the mass insanity. Thank god it's a tiny minority.
