HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.worldtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•Miriam Adelson Is On The Line8·1 day agoHis track record speaks for itself
Why so many people are taken in by the sheer volume of his ridiculous untenable scams is beyond me
Where is Trump airlines?
Trump Steaks?
Trump University?
Trump’s Taj Mahal Casino?
What happened with ACN?
What happened to Trump’s yacht, the Trump Princess? You know, the nearly 300’ megayacht he bought for $29M from Sultan of Brunei as the 3rd owner, had completely refitted and then heavily lobbied for special dredging permits in Atlantic City only to sell the yacht 3 years later for $20M. (That was some serious 5D chess shit right there)
What happened to the Donald J Trump Foundation? Why are Trump’s kids banned from operating a charity in the state of New York in the financial capital of the world?
Why has Trump been convicted of 34 counts of felony fraud?
Why would Trump claim this is all just partisan hackery?
What is this? Shawshank Prison?

…so after failing at nearly everything he did and getting bailed out by a foreign organized crime syndicate when no one would lend money to him anymore he went out of his way to become a false idol
False idol apparently pays better than a failed real estate developer and washed up reality TV star
HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.worldto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•A friendly reminder, the USA took 4 Presidents, thousands of lives, trillions of dollar and 20 years to replace Taliban with Taliban.11·1 day agoOne major reason is that even before the full scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, Ukraine has been hot on the goal of trying to join the European Union which has strict metrics against corruption which Ukraine has been striving to eliminate with EU watchdogs constantly visiting Ukraine to independently assess their effort.
By the end of which Ukraine will likely have far less corruption than the US

By Trump’s rules: Have no plan, just do the opposite of what the liberals want
Now he has to

HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Far-Right ‘Appeal to Heaven’ Flag Seen at Jan. 6 Riot Flown Above Government Agency in DC6·2 days agoExactly
Trump fired them up and sent them down there specifically to “fight like hell”
The most extreme groups were given heads up in advance and came prepared for it
There is in no way this was ever a peaceful protest
This alone could have convicted Trump had he not dodged prosecution by stealing the 2024 election
HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.worldto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•A friendly reminder, the USA took 4 Presidents, thousands of lives, trillions of dollar and 20 years to replace Taliban with Taliban.311·2 days agoNot really. We presented opportunities and they rejected them.
The US led coalition established a system of voting, Afghans risked their lives to vote
Other Afghans threatened to kill them if they voted, and many followed through with their threats
The US led coalition built schools, some risked their lives to attend
Other Afghans threatened to kill them if they attended, and many followed through with their threats
The US led coalition provided food and healthcare, many happily accepted
Others Afghans stole food and healthcare supplies and kept them from being distributed to other Afghans
The US led coalition provided new critical public infrastructure, many Afghans were overjoyed by the increase in their quality of life
Other Afghans destroyed that infrastructure with explosives and killed many Afghans in the process
No one was forced to accept it, the end of a gun came from other Afghans

I’m still baffled that we bothered staying at all. Later on it transitioned from it being primarily a combat mission to a combat mission plus a side humanitarian effort
When it was beyond clear that the people weren’t interested in our way of life at all, then they waited 10+ years and pulled the plug
Had to make sure the contractor companies got theirs first
I’m of the group to be last to graduate high school in the 1900s
I’ll be dead way before these people
HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.worldto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•A friendly reminder, the USA took 4 Presidents, thousands of lives, trillions of dollar and 20 years to replace Taliban with Taliban.188·2 days agoThrow another 20 years at it
Hell, throw another 100 years at it, it wouldn’t make a difference
Doesn’t even matter which country invades, it won’t hold it for long.
Even Alexander the Great only briefly held it for 25 years after defeating Darius III
The people didn’t want us there and we weren’t interested in forcing ourselves on them like some kind of brutal Soviet satellite state
The rampant unchecked corruption was way worse than we thought and it was a major consideration for pulling out
Can’t help people who are unwilling to help themselves
It’s not that I’m not appreciative, it’s just that a 40+ year old man like myself can handle only so many Julia Quinn, Emma Chase, and Tessa Dare books
