Trump thinks he is such a tough guy attacking Iran, and now he is bragging he will start a war with Cuba too.

@randahl yeah, the mob wants it's cuban casinos back

[eetschrijver@mastodon.social]

@randahl Which early success though?

[txtx@mastodon.social]

@randahl Those no kings demonstrations are not going to be enough. This president is a maniac.

[hermannus@stegodon.nl]

@Eetschrijver @randahl it's his latest verbal trick: "pretent I didn't say that" and "they won't allow me to say this"

@randahl
I think it's rather rooted in the common arrogant USamerican picture of themselves as being superior to everything and everyone "best country in the world" partly out of #whitesupremacy partly out of lack of education (on purpose). He is (just) a poster example of both.
So with him apparently greedy power "gone lose", lawless, reckless.

Edit: He is not someone with an ideology but only a greedy, stupid narcissist. And that's why he is such a useful tool for some. #steve_bannon

@randahl ah yes. Multi front war. Always a good strategy.

They need more volatility in the stock market to even further enrich their mafia gang.

@txtx

Of course not. Their purpose is to demonstrate that there is widespread opposition to the regime and bring more people into active non-cooperation with the regime.

Growing participation in non-cooperation, in chipping away at the pillars that support and hold up the regime is what will bring it down.

@randahl Don’t forget Equador!

[captain_jack_sparrow@mastodon.world]

@randahl

it's people that bring them down, the US needs to unit against the orange fascist, and that -crucially- includes the military and the police.

[captain_jack_sparrow@mastodon.world]

@Eetschrijver @randahl

Venezuela. now trump is in denial about Iran, probably encouraged by his sycophantic staff

[captain_jack_sparrow@mastodon.world]

@txtx @randahl

yeah, exactly.
The whole fucking country needs to go on strike and bring that orange cunt to his knees

[captain_jack_sparrow@mastodon.world]

@joeinwynnewood @txtx @randahl

yes, it's a good start

[cartyboston@mastodon.roundpond.net]

@Captain_Jack_Sparrow @randahl Yes! The policepeople and servicepeople I know, albeit few, behave like other working class people, not political agents.

[barryallen2023@mastodon.social]

@randahl You mean to tell me an 80yo pedophile who is currently being held together by mountains of cocaine, McDonalds wrappers and experimental dimentia medication isn't a genius war time strategist? I'm shocked

[theowashere@mastodon.social]

@randahl Please don't compare this orange with a historical figure. That will only boost his ego and distract him from the shame of his nano wiener.

[madmorgan@mastodon.social]

@randahl lets hope that arrogance or a cheeseburger finishes him off sooner rather than later. Trump is a menace

[xs4me2@mastodon.social]

@randahl

Let us hope so… and the sooner the better.
