I wouldn’t say killed necessarily, maybe on life support for the next few years. It’s also possible from a political perspective that Europe will look a little different a few years from now.
Certainly on life support, yes. But more and more people in Europe start to think of the US as another enemy.

Edit: I have to nuance this…many people in Europe see the Trump administration as an enemy. I hope it will not see the USA as an enemy (meaning Americans in general), but it will when all stays quiet in the US and when the great orange leader/dictator is allowed to do anything he wants.

I don’t know how true that is, but assuming it is: Trump was a wealthy person known for being wealthy. There were plenty of people more wealthy, but Trump put his name on several buildings. Wealth was his brand. So if you want to name check someone with money, he was the guy.


I’m more concerned about a racist running the whole country than I am with a racist who owns a few hotels and casinos.
I’m more worried about the president tweeting deranged things than I am about your rich uncle tweeting deranged things.
Yes Trump was a wealthy man (now even more so), but he also applied for bankruptcy a few times. After the Deutsche Bank, especially Russian oligarchs helped him financially. Maffia black money? I wouldn’t be surprised if Putin has him on a leash now (maybe knowing things about Trump, that don’t look very well).
There’s nothing Trump says that goes against Putin. Trump even asked him if he (Putin) would agree with a peace keeping force in Ukraine. The mightiest man in the world with the name of Trump…ASKING Putin??
I would be very concerned about a president that has to do this, if true. I know some will now say this all is a fake story…it isn’t so spare me your “fake media news” comments.

Two days since discovery and Apple hasn’t put out a fix.
Apples too busy checking code to find the error. After all these programmers are good and hid it well I’m sure
 







Just a tiny selection.
O wait…they are “very bad” / against Americans and should be banned anyway, right? Don’t get into details; I know your story already.
 
In the social media world and on the street, yes. In a corporate environment? Unless you're Ben and Jerry's and wear your politics on your sleeve, nonsense like this can wreck a company...
Frankly, Ben and Jerry's got the right idea. The idea that One person in a company can make 100s of times what the lowest person in the company can make is kinda evil. Also, didn't hurt Chick-fil-a, Hobby Lobby, Amazon, Meta, etc...

DOGE is a Putin style purge. There must be a DOGE in Russia or perhaps there was one in Hitler’s Germany.
These comments are ridiculous and only show how poorly the American educational system is functioning. Doing a financial audit for the first time since 1953 (though it is a Constitutional requirement) is not a purge. It is public info and one of the most transparent things the US government has done in three generations. Not only that, the US systems have been so abused over overridden that the only way an audit can be done these days is using AI. It could not have been done even three years ago. Techies ought to be celebrating this.

Well, we know where your loyalties lie. And where you likely get your news.

If this is what you imagine an audit looks like all that tells me is that you’ve never actually been involved in an audit.
 
He has actually, on racism, with a consent decree (in addition to a justice dept settlement)


On the rape charge the only reason he hasnt is because NY has a distinction between rape and sexual assault most states dont. The civil suit he lost would have labeled him a rapist in most of the US.

And of course he’s been found guilty of felony fraud
No, Trump lost a civil case regarding sexual assault. He was not found guilty of sexual assault with proof beyond reasonable doubt in a criminal court. Civil court has a much lower standard as well as a much higher level of "just make the one with the money pay." So, not the same thing. Even in that case, the jury specifically ruled out rape, and took sexual assault and battery.
There is a ton of legal work on this and it all says that that verdict can in no way be construed to say that Trump was found criminally guilty of rape, sexual assault, or rape.

The housing discrimination suit was from the late 1960s and early 1970s. If we are going to accept that Joe Biden went from a segregationist in 1977 (when he was 35) to a friend to minorities in 2008, then we can't be throwing DJT under the bus for something he did even before that, and in while he was still in his twenties.

You don't like him, sure. There are plenty of reasons to justify that. Use those. There is enough outright false hyperbole on the internet. Let's not add to it.
