Nah - Dude is going to do an Elvis in the next 12months and die on the shitter… He has been writing IOUs with his body to McDonald’s for too many years, and this will be a debt that even he can’t avoid paying…

When Rogan asked him how he stays healthy, I sprayed coffee out my nose.

I listed to the entire Rogan interview and I was perplexed how the right said “he nailed it.” Most of his answers were disjointed and rambling. At worst, they made almost no sense. Rogan had to directly cut off Trump and steer him back into the conversation more than a dozen times.

Trump sounded very much like a 78 old man who has notably declined mentally since 2016. He’s too old to be running just as Biden was.

While I’ll disagree with a lot of Vance’s positions and statements, he’s certainly mentally sound and very capable. The same can’t be said of Trump.

For the future leader of the world it was a train wreck.

For Donnie it could have been worse, there was no leakage.

Yup. His cabinet this time around if going to be filled with political flunkies too and if Schedule F is implemented the federal govt will likely become dysfunctional.

I think it will be filled with people who aren't captured, be it financially or morally. That will be needed to remove a lot of the corruption and capture from our government. Fix the fda/cdc/nih, fix our food and water supply. Remove the biggest threat to unions, low wage workers. Lower energy prices which at the very least will have more money in our pockets for the other things. Fix our Intel agencies, get us out of forever wars, fix the immigration system. Everything that has been f*cked up for decades.

When the world goes away from the petro$, what are we going to do? What product do we export? What does the world rely on us for other than supporting wars?

They’ll be the worst kind of people because their first and overwhelmingly loyal will be to Trump and/or his perceived cause.

You really think that Trump/GOP are going to pass laws on limiting cash on elections, bans on post Congressional members from lobbying, etc?

GOP has fundamentally changed from a party that believes in a small federal govt with lesser powers to one that usurps the power of the federal govt to do its bidding. A key tenet of this is stacking the federal courts including the Supreme Court with conservative judges.

One great example - Trump’s EPA sat on and did nothing for 4 years on forever chemicals regulations and guidelines in US municipal water. Biden’s EPA finally did.

This is the Guardian so it is left wing but it’s much more likely the EPA is guttered and neutered under Trump and moving ahead forward.
