Republicans whined endlessly that Obama was born in Kenya?
****
THIS writer summarily rebuked the notion on TMF and furthermore, I said "born in the USA" doesn't mean jack shit because Liberals pissed all over Americanism a long time ago, and the fact that someone can illegally cross the border, have a kid, and he's a citizen - means the whole "citizen" crap isn't worth much hence I dont care where a President is born. As matter of fact I documented on TMF that I actually helped a foreign family have their child while in suburban Chicago - Lutheran General Hospital. They went back to their home country but their son has emigrated back k to the USA years ago and is working in a good I.T job for Goldman Sachs. I really hope he displaced an American I.T liberal.

Apparently VP Trump is paying attention tooHe sure is...
Musk has been actively participating in meetings and discussions that include world leaders, such as joining a call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Musk also met with Iran's ambassador to the United Nations, which raised questions about whether these actions were sanctioned by Trump.
Musk has actively engaged in discussions about Trump's Cabinet selections, notably selecting Howard Lutnick for Treasury Secretary over other candidates.
Reports are indicating that Musk has been pushing his policy ideas and asserting himself within the transition team, which has caused some friction.
Musk was named to lead DOGE, a position that allows him to influence federal hiring and agency restructuring. This appointment signifies a level of authority typically reserved for government officials.
In summary, Musk's actions exhibit characteristics typically associated with presidential behavior, including influencing policy decisions, engaging in diplomatic efforts, and asserting a public persona that aligns with political leadership.
Who would have dreamed that a culture that worships money would end up with an oligarchy?

And what is wrong with that? Elon Musk has not been idle wasting his life enjoying his billions, but has many life accomplishments he can boast on..
“Elon Musk cofounded the electronic payment firm PayPal, and in 2002 he founded SpaceX, a company that makes rockets and spacecraft. He was a major early funder of Tesla, which makes electric cars and batteries, and became its chief executive officer in 2008. He cofounded Neuralink, a neurotechnology company, in 2016. Musk purchased the social media service Twitter in 2022 and renamed it X in 2023.”
Elon Musk is a brilliant man, an asset and confrere to President Elect Trump.

Trump won by a landslide
Whoops, you're 'trumping' again ***, and just as we were finding common ground. Trump’s margin was less than half of what Biden got four years ago.
Just out of curiousity, what's your source for your, uh, unfortunate intentional 'landslide' misinformation? (New Years Resolution: Use less f-bombs as adverbs/adjectives).
In any case, comparing Trump to Biden or Harris is no refutation of the orange liars defrauding, raping, mysoginistic, racist character and values that you apparently share.
*** - Measured both by vote percentages and by raw votes, Trump’s margin of victory is modest, even compared with this century’s other close elections.
For votes counted through Nov. 20, Trump’s margin over Harris was 1.62 percent. That’s smaller than any winner since Bush in 2000, when the margin was 0.51 percent. Going back further, only John F. Kennedy in 1960 and Nixon in 1968 won the popular vote by smaller margins, 0.17 percent and 0.7 percent, respectively.
Using raw votes, Trump’s margin was also smaller than in any election going back to 2000. At about 2.5 million, it was the fifth-smallest popular vote margin since 1960.

“Trump is only the second Republican in the last thirty years to win the popular vote – G.W. Bush did so in 2004 but not in 2000 – as well as the first candidate in 132 years to win a non-consecutive term. His tally of 31 states with 312 electoral votes is the most impressive of any Republican candidate since Bush Senior in 1988.
Trump made historic gains among certain demographics this year. He won the highest share of black voters (16 per cent) of any recent Republican candidate, which does not sound impressive until we consider that the last Republican to come close was Ronald Reagan in 1980 (14 per cent). Only Richard Nixon, all the way back in 1960 – four years before the Civil Rights Act was passed – had a more impressive share at 32 per cent.
The disaggregated numbers are even more revealing: Trump doubled his share of black males since 2020 from 12 per cent to 24 per cent.
Trump may have won the greatest share of Latino voters of any Republican candidate ever. His share increased from 29 per cent in 2016 to 46 per cent in 2024, with up to 54 per cent of Hispanic men casting their ballots for Trump.”

LM,
I am touched by your concern.
I have encountered people like Trump throughout my personal and professional life. People who exhibit extreme greed, fragile yet overinflated egos, people who claim credit for other’s success and blame their failures on others, people who only care about one thing; themself. People who think they are above social norms and the law.
It’s not just an opinion. It’s based or irrefutable facts. Trump is a felon. Trump is a sexual predator. Trump is a thief, stealing money from his own charity. Trump has invited racists and anti-semites into his home and inner circle. Trump is a habitual liar. Trump has stolen top secret documents. Trump is a cheat. Trump is an abysmal businessman. Trump is divisive. Just a few of his faults.
I have stood up to bullies like Trump my whole life, even when it cost me my job. I see Trump as one of the greatest dangers to America and our democracy I’ve seen in my lifetime, based on irrefutable facts.

Everything else you said was true. My real concern is that when the convict is no more, that the attitudes he champions will persevere and we'll elect a string of populists that will undermine the democracy, crash the economy (more tax cuts? really??), and fail to hold in check the authoritarians of the world.

"TDS" is a made-up term by people who are in the cult of the convict to describe those who oppose the convict. I, too, would wear that proudly.
I know someone who is in another group some would call a "cult", and they refer to outsiders as "opposers". Though they aren't consistent about it (e.g. I'm not a member, would never be -they've stopped asking me-, but have yet to be called an "opposer"). Those in a cult, or cult-like group, need to have a term for those outside their group.
