Based on the number of racist nutjobs following him on Twitter presumably ? Shame he can’t even be an MP as he is convicted criminal and a bankrupt individual. Quote

Lone Striker Posted January 5 Posted January 5 (edited) 7 hours ago, Dawnrazor said: Would it surprise anyone if Boris ended up as leader of Reform? There's a theory among some online political geeks that Farage isn't actually interested in becoming PM - he'd then have to take responsibility for stuff, which would harm his reputation. Their main purpose is to force the Tories much further to the Right, then Farage stands down as Reform leader ahead of the GE so that most Reform voters switch back to the Tories - who may have a "man of the people" leader by then. That might be Boris. Edited January 5 by Lone Striker Quote
Watt-Zeefuik Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Gone off the boil now of course but the Cybertruck explosion, pending final confirmation of the identity of the perp/suicide victim, is now fairly well confirmed to be a rabidly pro-Trump/pro-Musk fellow who was ready to go out and wanted to do it with a bang. He even wrote two "minifestos" about why he'd done it. Quote Military and vets move on DC starting now. Militias facilitate and augment this activity. Occupy every major road along fed buildings and the campus of fed buildings by the hundreds of thousands. Lock the highways around down with semis right after everybody gets in. Hold until the purge is complete. Try peaceful means first, but be prepared to fight to get the Dems out of the fed government and military by any means necessary. They all must go and a hard reset must occur for our country to avoid collapse. We must end the war in Ukraine with negotiated settlement. It is the only way. Focus on strength and winning. Masculinity is good and men must be leaders. Strength is a deterrent and fear is the product. Stop obsessing over diversity. We are all diverse and DEI is a cancer. Thankfully we rejected the DEI candidate and will have a real President instead of Weekend at Bernie’s. Consider this last sunset of ‘24 and my actions the end of our sickness and a new chapter of health for our people. Rally around the Trump, Musk, Kennedy, and ride this wave to the highest hegemony for all Americans! We are second to no one. But Homan, Trump's pick for homeland security, is on cable news saying it's a terrorist attack by an immigrant, because he "just has a feeling." Quote
Mikey1874 Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Still waiting for Musk to call to disband the military since they are the terrorists now. Quote

John Gentleman Posted January 6 Posted January 6 11 hours ago, Ulysses said: Logic suggests that this is just rightist nutsos being, well, rightist nutsos. The modern-day iteration of extremist conservatism seems to specalise in managerial incompetence and an inability to focus on getting work done. There is another possibility, which is that it's all some kind of distraction game. There's no doubt that Musk is a monumental gobshite, and as I saw him described during the week he's the world's richest pub bore. But he's also a very rich uber-capitalist, and they tend to have very simple wants and needs of politics, which is to be left as free as possible to get richer. Normally they achieve that best by operating quietly in the shadows and behind the scenes. Is Musk just being a noisy arse because he's a noisy arse who can't help himself and who can't keep away from the ketamine? Or is he playing silly games to distract the media and the mug punters from some other dodgy get-even-richer scam he's trying to run? My opinion? He just can't help himself, particularly now he's had a whiff of pseudo political power. There'll be a human supernova when his and Trump's hyper-inflated egos inevitably collide. Quote

Maple Leaf Posted January 7 Posted January 7 That's Trump' political comeback complete and he's smelling like roses. In the meantime, his former lawyer and biggest fan, Giuliani, is up to his neck in legal problems as a result of his efforts to help Trump overthrow the election, and Trump can't / won't do anything to help him.

Watt-Zeefuik Posted January 7 Posted January 7 (edited) 3 minutes ago, Footballfirst said: And unquantified natural resources that his backers are itching to exploit. I suppose, but it's not like they're going to be tremendously accessible any time soon. I suppose the melt will eventually allow for some mining but one of the things about Greenland is it's so hard to explore we're largely just guessing at what's under all the ice. I don't think it's just his backers. I think he wants territorial expansion of the US for his own ego and Greenland makes sense if you're looking at a map and don't have the curiousity to find out anything else.
