Trump's 50-point plan for a second-term is impressively hollow and meaningless

Basically, yeah.

Well, if we smash all the countries with Muslims with brown skin, they can’t terrorize us good white Christians anymore, can they? We just need to smash up their countries some more, make sure they can’t go anywhere else, and that problem is solved! NOBEL PEACE PRIZE, PLEASE!!! /s

I think the term can be used in unintended methods to describe just how “exceptional” the US is; like how the US treats minorities, mass levels of incarceration, and outrageous healthcare bills. That’s certainly not the norm in other countries.

It’s not toothless, I mean it has teeth, but if the mouth (to keep the analogy) utterly refuses to use them, then yes, we’re boned. Trump wouldn’t have made it past day 2 without the explicit help of hundreds of enablers in Congress. The bleeding stopped in many ways when Democrats took the house, only for Mitch to turn into a complete brick wall on everything. And remember, he can be replaced by simply going “we want this guy instead”, but that doesn’t happen.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Even leaving aside his Republican congressional enablers, it turns out there’s all sorts of things the president can do for which congress has no oversight, ethics rules that have no enforcement mechanism, campaign laws that can be flouted openly…

Make America White Again!

Covid 19 has to be his wild card in this election. Any negative results from any election promises can be washed away with the pandemic and bleach. The “China Virus” is the propaganda call, very close to “Reds Under the Beds”.

There is actually an unintentional good idea in the list for global economies… localize manufacturing and resolve an economy around local jobs and human worth without exploiting cheap labor from the outside. Of course this would be an absolute hypocrisy in it’s purest form (see Ivanka) kinda requires a philosophy akin to Socialism.
