I fared quite wlll on the election predictions, ask Maruader!!
Lets us try these,
What Trump will do:
Extend and make permanent his 2017 tax cuts
Reduce other taxes
Over several years, cut the size of the federal deficit
Raised tariffs, but not nearly as many as threatened
Seal the US borders – south and north
Finish the border wall
Deport hundreds of thousands of illegals who are serious criminals
Pardon or commute the sentences of almost all of the January 6 defendants
Aggressively defended historical American constitutional rights
Reduce the power of the mainstream media substantially.
Reduce or eliminate thousands of federal regulations. Thousands
Strongly support increased US energy production
End the support for most 'green' subsidies, like EV's
Out maneuver Putin on multiple front
Out maneuver Xi on multiple fronts
End the Ukraine Russian shooting war by year end
Reverse most federal work policies, like DEI, ESG, defund the police, transgender men in women's sports.
Successfully push NATO countries to higher defense spending to protect themselves. my my, they have to protect themseves. hey, shav, is your military all suited up?
Reduce US support for many UN agencies
Support Israel strongly
Aggressively cause further decline of Iran's Middle East power
End of the Yemin attacks on international shipping
Further, China economic decline relative to the US ieconomic power
And that is not all.
@AverageJoe1
I will try to keep this thread in mind and see what happens.
Some of the predictions will be very hard to check e.g. "outmanouvre"?

How bout Trump three times yesterday in some venue clearly said that if the hostages are not released by Jan 20, 'there will be hell to pay'. What in the world. He is not one for empty threats, as Obama (line in the sand!' ) and Biden were, so we are going to be on the edge of seats to see what his plan is.
@AverageJoe1 saidYes we will be eager to know....

@Ponderable saidSend in Special ops? Boots ground? Can we all look ahead to discuss, or will you-know-who write about orange hair and inclinations
Yes we will be eager to know....
@AverageJoe1 saidI doubt severly that any US combat mission is in the cards. Even if Trump would be open to that I doubt, that US troops would achieve more than the IDF

@Ponderable saidPlus, too much of a chance for him to take, given we might see them simply mow down all the hostages, maybe on video, and Trump would carry that in his legacy forever, like the horrible Biden Afghan debacle.

@AverageJoe1 saidYou mean that horrible REPUBLICAN legacy in Afghan? Biden inherited that mess.

But OF COURSE you love to rewrite history.
@sonhouse saidHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. AfHAN was a Trump debacle. What would the Forum look like without a SHouse? Seriously, this is like a sitcom and he was plucked out of 5000 applicants for this character.

Luckiluy we all have the wherewithall to separate the Shousisms from the real world, it is entertainment to say the least.
Lets see him tell us in another post if he wants Trump actually thrown in jail. It will torment him, he will not answer. But, ooooooohhhh, he will write!!!!

It was BUSH in 2001 who attacked Afghanistan because of the 9-11 attack on the trade towers.
But I guess that was too far back in time for a seasoned lawyer such as you to remember.
So Biden pulled out and some people got killed. Maybe it could have been done better but he DID pull out and stopped that stupid war, just as stupid as the Viet Nam war.
So why didn't TRUMP pull out when he was POTUS the first time eh?
I guess you would never deign to answer THAT.
@sonhouse saidTo be fair, it was Bush who attacked Iraq over 9/11 because the general thinking was that Saddam Hussein needed to be removed.
I didn't say Trump.

We went into Afghanistan because Obama correctly found that Osama bin Laden was actually at fault and he was in Afghanistan. We should have gone into Afghanistan first instead of wasting time trying to re-build a new libertarian dreamland in Baghdad. That was the fault of Rumsfeld and Cheney. We later chased bin Laden into Pakistan. Once we got him, we should have pulled out then, but the Republicans were hot to create a base of operations in the Middle East, but they didn't learn the lesson Russia learned from the mujahideen.
@AverageJoe1 saidHalf of them are lies, the other half is disgusting.
A true debater, a thoughtful debater, would maybe highlight a few of the items and comment?
I like them all.
Then, you say.\,_____________________
Happy now?
@Suzianne saidAccording to the link I posted, G W Bush said on October 7 of 01 he was attacking Afghanistan.
