    The worst case against him, of course, is his COVID regime. What's worse, he's proud of it. I mean, by my own standards, he should hang for such a crime. But I'm willing to grant him a dispensation, if he can fuck up whatever is left of the establishment's sanity. Trump, too is a spellcaster, but since he casts spells in the direction of my enemies, I find him useful. I am just not naive to his clearly demonstrated impotence and weakness.

    You can google any Covid symptom and write flu instead of Covid. Set the search parameters to show you results prior to 2020 and see for yourself.

    I had a flu severe enough in January of 2018 it prevented me from going to my best friend's funeral. It was bad. I recall my son bringing me soup because I was so feverish I got a bit wobbly when I stood up. About '97 my husband and I both got sick with a severe flu, which is weird because it was super rare for him to get sick at all much less sick enough not to work.

    As to the taste loss, that happened with every little sinus infection or cold I ever had. Anytime the upper respiratory was involved, in fact. Extreme things like balsamic vinegar I could taste but just the saltiness. Anything else, nope. Which in the case of taking Nyquil, was fine with me. That shit's nasty.

    At least some of his Twitter posts were dictated, I'm sure. Beyond that, I can't think of anything. He was hardly the Mussolini that he was made out to be, whether he wanted to be one or not.

    The man was merely a fool about his hiring decisions. John Bolton??? Who would hire that fucking moron to sweep the hall? All of his errors were derived from trusting the wrong people. Fauci, etc.

    Covid-19 was the flu, repurposed to scare stupid people into blind obedience, nothing more, nothing less. Did you notice what happened to the number of flu cases in the middle of the "pandemic"? It went to damn near zero, and nobody said a word about that. At least we now know that ivermectin works on the flu, so that's a useful thing.

    Bottom line is that anybody they hate as badly as Donald Trump gets my vote every time. His usefulness may be otherwise limited, but there is just no decision this time. If they don't actually kill him, and don't think they won't try. It will be the Russians, of course.

    Are you sure he had a real choice in who he hired? Remember that he tried assembling an outsider gang in 2017, but got taken down by the AmeriStasi and their Russian collusion conspiracy. If he kept going that route, anyone who had the capability to make important changes would just end up in prison like Flynn. He gives his "firestorm on the left" excuse for not firing Fauci, but I have no doubt that what he really meant was "they wouldn't let me".

    Also remember that he brought in Douglas MacGregor right at the end, in December 2020. He was obviously thumbing his nose at the hiring restrictions he agreed to abide by, but it was already too late and the coup was complete.

    Trump's only real option was to escalate to civil war, but he proved that he is not cut from that kind of cloth. He was a renegade Clown, not Caesar.

    Trump prevented Hilary from becoming President. For this act of patriotism, he should be forgiven for any and all other sins, real or imagined, for the remainder of his natural life.

    This is exactly where I'm at. I like what Vivek says (mostly) but I don't trust a clean cut man. They're like cats- they still shit in the house but they cover it up. Trump gets in trouble because he says what he thinks too often. He's not so polished you can't see the real guy. I think the reason the swamp doesn't like him is that he's not easily handled. He says the quiet part out loud. Makes them all uncomfortable and I really like that.

    Would love to see Nick Freitas get further in politics. I know I won't see him on a national ticket this round but in the near future would be awesome.

There would be a civil war, and the American remnant would be in a similar position.

    The easiest way for them to win is to just wait us out, because we are so passive, making it easy for them to destroy us slowly and methodically over time. But how much time do they have?
    Many of the Jihadists and a few other demographics would be competent soldiers; in addition they would have substantial foreign resources backing them.
    I am not sure this is something we want; Zimbabwe still exists, while Rhodesia is gone forever.
    If we have to fight against it, we will.
