On Feb. 10, 2024, Trump declared that if he were to become president again, he would encourage the Russians to do “whatever the hell they want” to NATO countries that failed to meet the Western alliance’s target of spending two percent of GDP on defence.
Under Trump, NATO and the post-Second World War liberal democratic order will fade away, only to be replaced by an anarchical international system characterized by cataclysmic land wars in Europe and instability in the Indo-Pacific region.
The Justice Department has charged one man in a thwarted Iranian plot to kill Donald Trump before the election. Two others are accused of helping Iran surveil another US citizen. https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/08/politics/doj-charges-three-iranian-plot-to-kill-donald-trump/index.html

Here's what will happen with the illegal immigrant expulsion program (or whatever nice-sounding name it gets).
The administration will set silly targets of "x people a month" for detention, and "y people a month" for deportation.
Chaos will then ensue, as meeting the quotas will cause all manner of legal residents to be caught up in the sweeps.
However, the "process" will be so capricious, that a lot of legal residents will end up being deported.

History will remember the bravery and hard work of #KamalaHarris and #LizCheney. It will also remember that a majority of Americans are hateful, cruel, vindictive wretches.
I'm more than ready for the next #plague. Those Americans who are anti-vax, anti-mask, and anti-science will learn the hard way and there will be less of them when the dust settles. #MonkeyPox #Covid #BirdFlu
Trump
• lost 60 election fraud cases in court including before judges he had nominated
• falsely claimed that factories were reopening when they weren’t
• shamelessly exploited terror attacks in Europe to justify his anti-immigrant policies
• still hasn’t come up with a healthcare plan
• still hasn’t come up with an infrastructure plan despite repeated “Infrastructure Weeks"
• forced Secret Service agents to drive him around Walter Reed while contagious with COVID
