Is there anything Trump or the Trump administration has done in the last 4 years that you agree with?



You believe globalism is some myth, but if it were real would you want to keep the current way where there's countries each with their own government or would you want a one world government?

1. I have a friend who works in debt and bankruptcy collections and his business is booming, Trump's handling of the economy has been good for him.

2. There is not a chance in hell that all countries switch to a single world government, it's nonsense.

A sufficiently powerful AI or alien invading force could result in a single world government.

I'm partial to the idea of a benevolent AI overlord. Imagine a world where war would never be a thing because the ruling entity doesn't believe in a religion nor does it ever need money. I think something other than humans would have to introduce it to the earth, though, because you know humans are gonna find a way to do shady shit with it to have an advantage over others and we just end up in 1984.

Trump Acknowledges UFOs, Threatens Aliens With Military Action
https://www.popularmechanics.com/mi...trump-acknowledges-ufos-and-threatens-aliens/

President Donald Trump, when asked about a new Pentagon task force for studying UFOs, replied that he would look into it—and then began boasting about the power of the U.S. military. Some observers saw this as Trump touting his funding of the Department of Defense, while others saw it as a threat to extraterrestrial beings.

:rofl2:

Oh man, I hate you. You just made me think of the one thing Trump has done that I like; the establishment of the motherfucking space force. We're gonna conquer the galaxy.

How's the Space Force logo look, Joom? Remind you of anything?

Out of curiosity, name one good thing that the left has done.
I can't really give a positive answer here, either. The thing is that most democrats aren't leftists, they're moderates. Biden is Mr. Moderate himself, and that's why I never wanted him. Obama really didn't do anything, either. Guantanamo is still open, the affordable care act was just a mandate to have private insurance, and he wreaked havoc on the Middle East with drones. I like that he started pardoning people of non-violent crimes, but Trump has done this as well just as a means to virtue signal. Obama was also the one who started caging up migrant children, even though you never heard about it. Trump and his heinous immigration policies have just put the act in the spotlight. Do I think that's gonna end under Biden and Copmala? Nope. But they're a step in a better direction.

Lol, yeah. I think there was nearly a lawsuit over trademark because of that.

Neat. Glad I'm not a liberal. You can claim victory over them all you want. But it's rather ironic that you would dislike liberals considering liberalism is nothing but the belief that free thoughts and ideas should exist out in the open. Aren't you conservatives all about "muh freedom of speech"? Kinda antithetical to your belief system to dislike liberals since that's the only thing they're about.

If you mean the previous President then that's easy ... universal health care.

I think if Gene Roddenberry were alive today he would be thrilled that the USA chose to design a logo that resembles his creation. It's the US Space Force and not "Trump's Space Force". Can't help haters gonna hate, but the agency is here to stay.

Everything else aside, he also didn't let them stay there for more than 72 hours and didn't purposely split up families. Nor have I read or heard about any other controversies at the border, like the ones happening under Trump.

I'm almost convinced you're trolling at this point. Nobody in the US believes Obamacare was universal healthcare. You can't even call it that when it was a mandate to buy private insurance. That's not how universal healthcare works. Also, the affordable care act was a republican policy that they tried pushing through in the Bush administration, but the dems shot it down. It wasn't until they lost the senate that it got sent through.

Nobody called it that, but glad you still felt it necessary to make that point.

You are right there, but it still didn't really do anything to deter illegal immigration. That said, neither has The Wall™, and that's just been another major drain on the taxpayers. Yeah, let's spend a couple million to paint it black. That'll prevent the wind from blowing over our sheet metal fence! There's also the fact that they're forcing women to receive hysterectomies in these detainment centers, effectively making them sterile. They're also forcing the prisoners to breathe in toxic cleaning solutions that makes them bleed out their orifices. I wonder what other leader out there committed mass sterilization and euthanasia on an ethnic group...hmm...

like i said earlier, trump failed to secure funding and construction for the wall even with control of all of congress, and the presidency.

Perhaps Gene Roddenberry would be even more thrilled had they asked for permission first instead of blatantly ripping off the Starfleet Academy.

I had Space Force scribbled down on my list of Trump accomplishments btw, so do not confuse my poking fun with a policy difference.

It doesn't look like they ripped it off to me, but more of took it as inspiration for the final design. I also wouldn't see why anyone would complain about basing a design of a real life Space Force off of the fictional Star Fleet logo. Wait, it's got Trump involved, so of course there's going to be opposition. Trump could claim water is good to drink and almost half of the population of the USA would stop drinking water. The TDS runs deep. Though I'm glad you shared something that you view that Trump did that was positive. Some people can't admit such things due to the hatred flowing in their veins.

Like we needed a space force. Also, I more hate his supporters than Trump himself. He wouldn't get away with a lot of his shit if they weren't bootlicking mouthbreathers who had a single individual thought in their brain. But they all have this sheep-like, hivemind mentality who are opposed to thinking for themselves.You call a movement for peace and prosperity hatred, while the man you support is all about genocide and making sure systemic oppression is here to stay. Right. Anyway, your Mel Gibson avatar is fitting. You're as big a Looney Toon as he is.

Make no mistake, the insignia, flight path around the insignia, text border, three distinct star sizes, and the largest star appearing in the top left quadrant were clearly lifted from the Starfleet design. Whether we frame it as "inspiration for the final design" or "ripped off" -- a copycat is still a copycat. ;)

You also wrongly assumed that I was against the Space Force, which indicates questionable judgement on your part. I'd also appreciate it if you'd keep your childish personal attacks to yourself. You do realize that the Starfleet photo was intended as a joke, correct? Your bitter responses seem totally random and you say I'm the one with TDS?

In my defense, I'm an Independent, which means I actively choose which candidate I support. Gregory-samba, you have no concept of what that's like because your candidate is automatically chosen for you. So don't tell me about my biases until you get yours fixed first.

The US has a population of over 300.000.000 people, so it comes down to 500 deaths/1.000.000 population. For example, Belgium hasdhas that.

Numbers never lie, but you have to put them in the correct context. Are those numbers high? Well yes, but they aren't the worst in the world.

IMHO you shouldn't measure yourself against the countries with the highest rates. It is advisable to compare with those who show low numbers.

The US has 328M people. Divided by 216903 who died because Corona is ~661 deaths per 1M people.
Belgiums rate is 901, Brasil has 758, USA 661, France 493, Germany 117.

But also interesting is how quick it distrubutes:
