We should start a bet to see how much longer Trump gets to live without being suicided by the puppetmasters.

My bet is 15 months, +/- 1 month. Sometime after the impeachment fails.

If it happens America falls into utter chaos over night. The country will be a very dark and deathly place for 15-20 years.

Truth. It is and has been the people's responsibility to keep big government in check and have failed well before WW1 and 2. Honestly, I am to the point that from here on out everything that happens to us (civilians and the government) we fucking deserve... The moment we let 9/11's bullshit dictate the Constitution we have lost. A lot of people are still in the mind frame of wait and see how much worse it can get - and it has gotten so fucking bad, but no one is willing to give up their facebooking and their iphones for their gods given right to freedom and to not be chattel to (((them))). There is no going back when

Yep. They will misjudge the will of the American people. I mean, the ones smart enought to resist the Babylonian mind control bullshit.

KNOW THIS, FBINIGGERS: If Trump dies, your Zionist government dies with him. And that statement isn’t even related to the fact that he’s an obvious Zionist who sold out his base. It’s totally unrelated. He’s just our canary. You’ve stolen EVERYTHING else from us, all across the Western world. We’re done running. We’re done tolerating. Trump’s death means your deaths. Become patriots again or there won’t be a square inch of Earth where you can hide from our wrath. And that’s saying something, since we’re isolationists.

He has mentioned some things about reining in and/or restricting the Federal Reserve, but seeing as they've bumped up the interest rate 4 times during Trump's first year in office (compared to a single time in 8 years under Obama), it doesn't look like he is having that much public success there at the moment (maybe after the Pentagon finishes its audit {assuming they don't pull another 9/11 to destroy the evidence of the audit...}, he'll finally have the political capital to beat some sense into the Fed).
As for Israel, other than the "Two State Solution" that some Israelis don't like and some of the Jews crying out against Trump's border wall and immigration reforms, and giving more power to the reformers in Syria and Saudi Arabia, he seems to be publicly in favor of a lot of the things Netanyahu likes (possibly due to being heavily influenced by Ivanka and her husband, possibly to avoided getting fully framed as Hitler, possibly because he just wants to quietly go after the worst of the bunch while promoting the good ones {like he is currently doing with the Saudi Muslims}, impossible to tell which right now).

Does trump have his own security detail, or is it fully run by the secret service?
[–] pby1000 0 points 6 points 6 points (+6|-0) ago
He has his own, along with the Marines and us.
[–] HardCorps 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
SS run. Still has access to his old security guys but they dont call the shots anymore.
