It's going to be a long 4 years

Possibly far less. Depends on how many missiles get launched.

I'm still seeing that the shutdown is looming. Did anything change?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Nope. Elon Musk is still the president.

Just a reminder that Elon Musk is not from the United States.

...which is why he had to buy a president instead of buy the presidency.

President Musk flexing his muscles even before puppet inauguration.

One thing I wondered is what would happen if Putin and Musk disagree at some point about what Trump is supposed to do? But the answer is actually easy: whoever strokes Trump's ego better at the time gets their policy through. Trump lives in the moment.

I don't know, I still think Putin has info on Trump that Trump really doesn't want to be public for whatever reason. So I'm thinking he would defer to Putin.

I used to think that, but there's nothing Trump could have done that the loony right wing public wouldn't gleefully dismiss as not important. (Well, apart from a lewd orgy with trans Muslim Mexican immigrants, but I don't think any of those exist, and Trump would just call it faked anyway.)

Now I think that Putin just rings him up to tell him what a great president he is and all the world admires how strong a leader he is, not like those weak Democrats who (insert policy Putin wants dropped), no, Trump is a strong and courageous leader and everyone can tell how strong and virile he is because he supports policies like (insert policy that Putin wants implemented).

I mean maybe there's a video of Trump shouting "Yes, shove that big beautiful black dildo in me harder!", but I don't think it's necessary at all. See how easy it was for the North Korean president to get Trump to completely change direction. He just sweet talked him for a bit. Trump is an absolute sucker for someone he perceives as strong telling him he's great. American foreign policy is at the whim of any world leader who can make Trump feel proud of himself for a week.

Whether or not the public would dismiss it and whether or not he thinks they would dismiss it are two very different things.

Which does point towards some non-hetero sexcapade, because pretty much everything else he's famous for already having done.

I still think he's pathetically easy to manipulate for dictators.
