He's done a pretty good job of f**king their economy.

Is it just me or is the BBC totally sane-washing Trump? Considering the litany of awful sh*t he has perpetrated in just 100 days, I'd hope for at least some objective reporting, but their coverage of him seems to completely pander to him and his base. 

They do the same with Farage. Possibly not a coincidence?

I'm not sure how long people thought the Trump & Musk bromance would last but the two spending the day slagging each other off hints its probably over now.

Since that one, Musk has also called for impeachment.

 

Maybe it says something about who they are that a disagreement over policy rapidly descends into such high-profile insults and name calling I dunno.

It was curious yesterday to see some trying to fast-track a reconciliation, not least Musk himself. Feel like if you're going to say some of the things he said about Trump given its well known how thin-skinned he is, that's going to be at best very difficult.

Musk has deleted this Tweet. Because we all famously know we're just going to forget he posted this and several other similarly anti Trump things.

So I think he is purposely running the country towards chaos which will foment civil unrest. He then declares martial law and suspends elections.

I said this in March.

Already, here we are...

yep and well past it 

[Olshansky]

It's going to get a lot worse, unfortunately 

[steviewevie]

Well...he's running out of time...so he's going for it. I don't think he'll be able to stop the mid terms, and there's a chance Democrats will win both houses.

been going through this thread...reliving the hope and then the cope...but came across this one as results were coming in and thought I just have to share

[steviewevie]

it's classic. I get so many things right, I think I might actually be supernatural.

you talking Epstein? These are official releases aren't they? Seems worse for Mandelson and Starmer's judgement in appointing him as ambassador.

There were some official ones that shouldn’t have been released implicating trump very strongly … they then got removed
