    Complete and utter triumph.
    Electoral Landslide.
    Popular Vote Win
    Senate
    House
    Supreme Court
    Majority of the Governorships

    The consequences of a legitimate king:

    Illegal Immigration?

    Israel-Hamas?

    EU?

    It is spring time in America and good times are at hand. This time he has the power and he has a Republican Party that has been made to kneel to his will. Those that did not are now aligned with the Democrats. I am confident that he will use that power to reverse the catastrophe of the past four years. His Presidency may become the stuff of legends.

    A final word for my Democratic friends:

    Absolutely beautiful

    As long as you are a woman who stays at arms length away from Trump, because otherwise he might grab your labia.
    If he does, don’t worry, God told him to do it.

    Why did you post images of headlines rather than links to actual articles? Concerned that people might actually read them and pick you up on the details?

    The word "after" commonly does a lot of heavy lifting in headlines, the key point being that "after" doesn't automatically mean "because". I know that Hamas were "calling for an end to the war" before the US election (obviously, the real question is how it is ended). The EU has significantly reduced all imports from Russia since the full invasion of Ukraine and continues to seek to reduce it's reliance, short term and long term (though this was apparently about LNG rather than oil). I don't see how the election of Trump changes that, though what he does when he is actually in office could influence matters in future (for good or bad).

    Incidentally, on @Steve N post about Hamas in Qatar (another screenshot rather than link of course), the reports I heard in the UK was that it was the US government who changed their position, primarily as an effort to try to force Hamas to compromise further in negotiations. And while Trumps win has likely pushed the Biden administration to try to get some political wins before January, I don't see how Trump himself can be credited with anything on this either.

    Why are they risking the dangerous journey? Can't Biden just get them one of those 3am 1st class flights he loves to do for illegals?

    King? Americans proclaiming a king? Sounds more like un-American.

    They do that. Women are not innocent little flowers who never act promiscuous. They love strong rich powerful men.

    Actually…..

    Hamas has issued a statement, laying out five points for Trump that include a demand to "end the blind bias toward the Zionist occupation."

    "Our position on the new American administration depends on its positions and practical behavior toward our Palestinian people, their legitimate rights, and their just cause," the statement said, reported by independent Palestinian news agency SABQ24NEWS.

    It also laid out its desire for an "independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital." When Trump was president in 2018, he made the controversial decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital and moved the U.S. embassy there from Tel Aviv.

    Hamas went on to say "all successive American administrations...have had negative positions on the Palestinian issue, and have always been the biggest supporter of the Zionist occupation in all fields and aspects."

    "We demand an end to the blind bias toward the Zionist occupation, and serious and real work to stop the war of extermination and aggression against our Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank," Hamas said.

    It also demanded an end to aggression in Lebanon and for America to "stop providing military support and political cover to the Zionist entity, and to recognize the legitimate rights of our people."

    It added: "The American president-elect is required to listen to the voices that have been raised from American society itself for more than a year regarding the Zionist aggression on the Gaza Strip, rejecting the occupation and genocide, and objecting to support and bias toward the Zionist entity."

    The "mandate of heaven"? And then MAGA is wondering why they are called the cul$ word.

    I am sure, though, now that the "chosen one" is returning to office, there will be a lot of fake, televised prayers again in the WH -- prayers to Trump and the money God.

    So because one person said something that means you judge an entire political party by them?

    Should I go and find the video for you where school children are singing praises to their savior Obama?

    And, keep deflecting to Obama, that's really lame.

    In any case, I don't envy you. You'll have a tough job ahead in the next four years polishing all of Trump's and MAGA's turds.

    Oh wow, you mean they are laying their hands on him in prayer? I guess you're not very familiar with that concept. It is not unusual to lay hands upon someone while praying for them....NOT to them.

    But you missed my point entirely so carry on.
    Just stick with what you know and not the things that you think that you know.

    The Mandate of Heaven is possessed by the Emperor only so long as he can hold the throne.

    The Emperor is not equivalent to a King, and Heaven is not equivalent to God in Chinese philosophy.

    Is that what God tells them to do? Initiate a relationship with a married man by blatently offering up their labia to be grabbed?

    More than a few of them are perfectly willing to do the most perverted sex acts on camera for money. You may have even seen a few of them yourself

    Good diversion. What we both seem to agree is that Donald Trump grabs women by the labia. That is what he himself has said he had done.
    What we seem to disagree about is whether that is a good thing or a bad thing.
    For me Trump doing it is oppressive and a sexual assault, going on to boast about it makes him a sex criminal creep.
    You are cool about that.

    Is it still sexual assault when they let you do it?

    This is a worrisome approach . . . and . . . frankly . . . a bit rapey. No, not "all good."

    They probably don’t have time to object when it suddenly happens. Probably in shock.
    Does God instruct Trump to enquire of the women as to whether they mind
