    It’s pretty well-known what those of us opposed to Trump think his second term would mean for the country. Plenty of smart people and SMEs supporting these opinions.

    I’m curious to hear from Trump supporters: beyond the “Harris is a communist,” what do you believe a second Trump presidency would mean for the country?

    “AI overlapped on several areas, predicting increased polarization and social tensions, particularly around issues of gender, immigration and cultural values. They also highlighted Trump's potential efforts to reshape federal bureaucracy with loyalists and his stricter immigration policies including border wall completion, as well as imposing tariffs, particularly targeting imports and China.

    ……went on to say that Trump has voiced skepticism over continuing U.S. military aid to Ukraine and has hinted at the possibility of diplomatic shifts with Russia and North Korea, "perhaps even formally recognizing North Korea's nuclear power status in exchange for a freeze on further development."

    What a second Donald Trump term would look like, according to ChatGPT, Grok

    If he wins, I think how a second term might play out domestically would depend somewhat on who controls the House and Senate. Having said that, he previously appointed several people to "acting" positions, and I am sure we would see even more of that if Democrats control the Senate. Foreign policy is obviously unique since CICs have more power there than they do with executive orders generally.

    I'll get my news updates from Truth Social, so that I can buy the new Trump bibles and sneakers using my Trump cryptocurrency.

    And it will all be well regulated by Elon Musk, who will have high-level government positions from which he can award himself immense valuable government contracts. This will allow him to recoup his equity losses for having allowed Truth Social to merge with Twitter, resulting in a huge equity gain for Trump and business gains for Musk. No real value will have been added, so the gains they net will be realized from the contracts awarded to Musk......paid for by US tax-payers.

    Unregulated grifting 101.

    NCR
    FP: Max pressure campaigns against Iran and NK. Likely tries to make Putin take a deal in Ukraine. When that fails, US restrictions on long range fires is lifted.
    Domestic: Tax cut extended. Re-imposes restrictions at the border. I doubt any major policy wins because of the filibuster. Maybe a deal on the border. Lots of EO stuff that will likely not last into a D Admin.
    SCOTUS: Alito and Thomas retire. Thaper is one of the replacements.

    “It will look great. Really nothing has ever looked like it ever before, they say, I don’t know about never - I shouldn’t say that. But it will look beautiful, and everyone will say ‘your country looks amazing, how did you make it so amazing?,’ but we won’t have to tell them how we made it beautiful. They already know. It’s a little thing called making America great again, perhaps you’ve heard of it - this guy has heard of it. But everyone will see it and everyone will have heard of it. THEY KNOW!”

    Probably a couple wars start, an international embarrassment in Afghanistan, double digit inflation, misery index readings, trillion dollars deficits for not using our own oil, another 20+ million illegal immigrants including multiple gangs represented, terrorists, chicom spies, Rusky bots, 75,000 fentanyl deaths per year, shit so bad they'll have to replace him with the VP...

    ...wait... sorry...... that was Biden...

    I'd say it'll prolly look a lot like his last go, except with out the pandemic.

    :cool:

    I read this post carefully to see if there was something you might understand about anything. Came up completely empty. You could not be more misinformed if you had locked yourself up in a cave with no contact with the outside world and just escaped.

    Is this real? Does he honestly think he can negotiate with N. Korea and that they can be trusted to honor the deal? Ditto for Russia?

    This idea of going back to the spoils system is just beyond ridiculous. Not sure which is worse. This, or blanket tariffs.

    Reversing the $1.78 trillion in extra regulations the Biden Administration placed on American businesses.

    So the OP said, “I’m curious to hear from Trump supporters.” And then the thread is littered with liberals responding. About what I expected.

    He should remove all the reg he imposed also, but he’s promising far more, so I doubt he will

    Do you have any evidence of that? Can you maybe give me 5 regulations and how they've affected your business and the connection to Biden please?
