I'm not sure that Hungarians are going to think that being endorsed by Trump is the best look if I'm honest

Polling seems to support this. Vance went over and Orban dropped in the polls.
oh

and apparently Zampollis now deported this tweeted this out before Melanias surprise statement

What I don't get about Vance and his cronies is they have a deep distrust of a federal Europe but are happy to live in a federal United States. The latter is more divided at least.
A federal Europe could possibly become a larger economic bloc than the US. Not that I think a federal Europe is necessarily something to aspire to. I think the EU is fine.
Poor Donald, who could have known buying a second hand sex worker from his mate honest Jeff might just end up with the wheels falling off.
I saw what Orban was getting up to in Hungary, in conjunction with Putin, and thought that Trumps cronies would be looking to that as a blueprint
A mate who lives in North Carolina, who is hardly one for conspiracy theories, is convinced that they’re going to engineer some major ‘state of emergency’ stunt in order to cancel the midterm elections
What has he got to lose if he attempts it,nothing, so he might as well try it on.
Doesn't matter what the law finally decides is right,the problem is that always happens after the fact.
When all is said and done, ICE are still running around,boats are being rocketed ,people are still stuck in a foreign super jail and Iran could be bombed again at any moment.
But the Melania thing is odd, what’s going to come out 🙂
(sneaky de-dup 🙂 )

Gotta be around that messy divorce bsky.
Only said to Mrs DOD that someone in her past has gotta be well unhappy with her (and being deported in a messy divorce/custody would probably not go down well.)

Absolutely on the money, as ever, from Ian Dunt
At this moment he has become a uniquely American nightmare, a specific combination of religion and shit TV, suddenly turned into flesh and blood and loosened upon the world.

He needs to get off the fence and say what he thinks! A proper Boss!
Melania sounds Thai.
She always sounds very heavily medicated.
I reckon Vance will be under strict instructions to drag the negotiations out over Sat AND Sun to ensure the tangerine **** can watch the Masters undisturbed.
He’s just sent Vance over there because he knows the Iranians will just tell him right where to stick his demands, then when he comes back empty-handed and humiliated, Trump can throw him under the bus.
I loved Trumps latest outburst saying that they don’t have any cards.
What… other than being able to hold the entire worlds economy to ransom?
Nah, no cards at all eh Donald
that one was hilarious

hes since tweeted out some guff about palantir and offered Hungarians a bribe if they re-elect orban
but apparently he's been raging at aides today, whether that's because if iran, Melania/Epstein or orbanns polling numbers idk
I'm going to be watching the Hungarian results with my fingers well and truly crossed.
I think Oban will lose but we all know what he will do after the loss and we also know that Trump will back him up.
"Stop the steal."
It shows how deluded trump is though sending Vance over, during this massively unpopular war, is likely to have sealed Oban's fate. I bet Oban didn't really want Vance over but he could hardly refuse his sugar daddy could he!

Perhaps Iran will bait Trump by demanding he attends by video call so he misses the golf?
Masters bait him if you will.

Hopefully the margin is clear cut and he can't resort to that, but that's wishful thinking. Given the Eastern European tendency for protest, I can see any attempt to overturn a result either being very messy or very quick and unsuccessful.
Latest beautiful addition to Washington D.C.

The vibe is very much Berlin, 1938.
Looks like Trump will find himself in the same position as he has done with his ballroom

Me too, however it's not clear that there'll be massive changes: the opposition candidate Magyar isn't by any means "a bleeding heart liberal do-gooder" He's ex Fidesz, shares their views on Ukraine, (ie no weapons for Ukraine) has committed to withdrawl of use of Russian energy, but has kept very quiet on LBGT+ rights, but even if he's better than Orban, (which the rest of us need to be sceptical of), the overwhelming majority of Expat Hungarians are Fidesz voters and the constitution in Hungary require Magyar's govt to have a 2/3rds majority to enact changes that will get rid of Orban's regime. Institutions throughout Hungary have Fidesz loyalist embedded at their heads, from judiciary to media and including the Presidency which Fidesz has just given extra powers and is you guessed it: An Orban loyalist.
I've been swapping messages with a Hungarian contractor I used to work with who's worried that if Orban wins Hungary will be imposed severe restrictions that'll affect his freedom to work in the EU.
Im just waiting for him to get his face added to Mt Rushmore
Meanwhile, as JD Vance is sent to Islamabad to negotiate with Iran and try to sort out the shit that his boss started, what will the president of the United States be doing all weekend?
Playing golf. Obviously.
There’s nothing like a sense of public duty, and this is nothing like a sense of public duty.
Reminiscent of Boris Johnson skipping COBRA meetings and going on his hols as Covid hit the UK.
These grifters wrap themselves in flags, but when it comes down to it they don’t even pretend to care about the country they’re alleged to be the leader of. They’re happy to leave others to sort out the chaos they create
The US people seen to be patheticly indifferent to the Trump junta and family's corruption. Even in 1789 in France the people knew their king was a spiv.
in fairness that might be best for world peace though!Meanwhile, as JD Vance is sent to Islamabad to negotiate with Iran and try to sort out the shit that his boss started, what will the president of the United States be doing all weekend?

A fair point! The less involvement that demented old windbag has, the better.
Though I’m sure he’ll still find time to scupper any potential deal over a double cheeseburger in the clubhouse
Here we go, yet more grifting and Trump affiliated corruption

To be fair he's also tweeting a load of bollocks in an attempt to undermine Vance at the negotiations, so it's not just golf. But mostly.

Yes, I hadn't realised he was ****ing over the Arlington cemetery, true patriot that he is.
Anyway, the Dems are gettung worried about his election plans
Playing golf. Obviously.
And watching a UFC tournament having dragged Rubio along as well. Somewhat odd the secretary of state, or as they would been known here the foreign secretary, was there vs in the cease fire negotiations.
I suspect the choice of JD as negotiator for a peace deal is his punishment for having his own political ambition and attempting to distance himself from the war. Give him a list of unacceptable conditions and let everyone see him walk away from the negotiations empty-handed
It shows you what Trumps priorities are. Petty personal vendettas take priority over the global economy and the small matter of a war, every time
What a pathetic little man he is
In his little mind, he'll go into negotiations and get "a deal" therefore must be a nobel peace prize candidate.
Doesn't matter how bad the deal is he'll manage to negotiate a US withdrawal, something no one else in history has managed.
He was just on the news actually making the statement "no matter what happens, we won!"
So much winning! The biggliest win ever! Like nothing the world has ever seen.
He was just on the news actually making the statement "no matter what happens, we won!"
Of course. I mean why would you build the biggest and bestly Triumphal arch in the world otherwise? It would seem a bit foolish.
Meanwhile - Trump's solution to Iran blockading the Strait of Hormuz.... The US is going to blockade the Strait of Hormuz.
This time no-one with a single brain cell believes Trump has won. Even the MAGA cult must be affected by high gasoline and losses on their 401k. And they'll have to fly to Mexico for healthcare soon.
And his VP
So...... hes now Jesus, Im not sure why he's healing Jon Stewart
I Trump's next war is going to be against the Vatican? Send in Navy Seals to capture the pope and put in Vance as a puppet pope?
Actually vance will be in the trump bad books- failed in Hungary, failed to get a peace deal, trump loves having someone to blame
And his VP
Vance has always hated Trump. He's just a spineless political chameleon. I suspect his Catholic faith is as deeply held as his politics and principles.
Remember in the good old days where someone posting a piece of AI slop depicting themselves as Jesus healing the sick would be considered a bit mad?
Can we go back to those days please? I just liked them more.
That Trump Messiah AI image is absolutely unhinged. The man with the launch codes for the world's biggest nuclear arsenal thinks he's god. What could possibly go wrong?
How are those around him and the rest of the US state apparatus not acknowledging and dealing with this? The US as a functioning democracy is completely and utterly ****ed to the point I can't see it ever recovering. I hope I'm wrong.
I take some small comfort for the way he is getting eviscerated on SM. This comment made me laugh.

Wait and see what happens in the mid-terms.
The polls suggest that a good outcome for the Republicans would be that their gerrymandering means they don't do quite as badly as the Tories did here last year.
As much as they've tried to enact "Project 2025" to turn themselves into a dictatorship, the reality is that they had no control over the constitution, so pretty much everything they've done via executive powers can be blocked or undone after the mid-terms by the next congress or by the next president.
Best (and not unlikely) case the GOP isn't going to spend the next two years considering whether they need to distance themselves from Trump, but by how much.
MAGA will inevitably be back, but I hypothesize that Trumps legacy will have been to turn a huge proportion of republicans into swing voters. Which leaves the Democrats in an interesting place, do they go with a Corbyn or a Starmer? Assuming they could win regardless they could have 8 years of left-ish government, or go after disaffected republican voters and win big, at which point they might even have enough power to make constitutional changes, but not necessarily the mandate to do it.

He's a Dr can no one see that 😂
Obvs it depicts him as a doctor - in his scrubs, doing doctor stuff
"supposing we hit the body with a tremendous—whether it's ultraviolet or just very powerful light—and I think that hasn't been checked, but you're going to test it...Inside the Body….And then I said, supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way."
He's been at the bleach again from the medicine cabinet

That's not the statue of liberty behind him, it's a nurse holding a syringe full of bleach for him to administer.
Edit. Beaten to it by @avdave2 !!
he appears to be giving out free healthcare tho, so that can't be right
Obvs it depicts him as a doctor - in his scrubs, doing doctor stuff
Given RFKs approach to healthcare I am not sure it can be ruled out.
I assume it got taken down because some of the evangelical Christians suggested it might be a tad blasphemous as well as being batshit crazy.
This popped into my YouTube feed, wonderfully sweary and visceral takedown of all things maga related, I’ll be subscribing
That doctor claim..obviously he knew what he was doing. But the alternative, if you take him at face value, is he's admitting he's so xxxxing stupid he genuinely thought it was a doctor..
Either way..60 million US voters still appear to think 'he's their man'..

It's just the usual Trump/MAGA post-rationalising of things they did with with no rationale. Trump didn't create the image. It's a bit of MAGA fan art that he reposted without any attribution so that he unwittingly seemed to be the author of it. So he's now having to defend the post by inventing reasons but there were no reasons other than he saw the picture and felt flattered by it.
Theres something called the 'Texas Sharp Shooter Falacy' - the Texas Sharp Shoot fires and bunch of bullets at a barn and then draws circles round them all and says 'thats what I was aiming for'
The Mar-a-largo Sharp Shooter fires a bunch of bullets at a barn and all his supporters have to rush to draw their own circles round them and explain what the intent was. While he's doing that he keeps firing and they have to keep drawing circles on themselves and each other. Then he'll forget he fired any of those bullets and start shooting baskets of kittens, orphanages and his own foot.
It's a bit of MAGA fan art that he reposted without any attribution so that he unwittingly seemed to be the author of it
Given who the patient resembles and various other bits of it I am not sure it was "fan art" vs "lets see if we can trick him into posting it art".
I am wondering when the Vatican will get added to the list of countries to invade. Given the US forces in Italy be relatively convenient.
Times today had an article, possibly trolling, that was very much in favour of Trump and against the Pope. That for all his bluster, Trump is generally correct. It was an annoying thing to read.

Britains rightwing press is now basically geared towards clicks from American readers
Wait until he slaps tariffs on communion wine and wafers.

Never discount that option. After all this is a man who was apparently a super-sharp business dealmaker who apparently couldn't read a balance sheet.

The Torygraph is now essentially just a MAGA mouthpiece. I’m presuming they must get clicks from the US because it’s so far out of kilter with public opinion here, I doubt anyone bothers reading it

Or realises that the Apostolic Palace is more bling, gold and gauche than his oval office and ballroom. I predict jealousy.

Edit. Duplicate post. Second time that's happened to me this morning. The forum has also been offline a fair bit. Has Trump put a punitive tariff on hamsters?
I saw a quote online that made me chuckle. If you were in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler and Trump and had a gun with just 2 rounds, you'd shoot Trump twice.
