The Donald Trump Presidency Thread | Trump Is A Turd After Hours

Trump’s presidency sparks outrage over chaos, corruption, and democratic erosion
5/10 Heated debate

The post sets a basic framework for discussion but lacks specific topics or questions to guide the conversation. It would benefit from more detail to enhance community engagement.

coronavirus response election fraud claims criminal indictments tariffs Ukraine policy

The thread opens as a civil discussion space but quickly turns into a stream of alarm and anger over Trump’s handling of crises, especially Covid-19, misinformation, and reckless public messaging. Participants repeatedly argue that his statements are false, destructive, and emblematic of a broader collapse in presidential standards.12

As the election approaches and then unfolds, the conversation shifts toward fears of voter suppression, refusal to accept defeat, and possible unrest. Members speculate about attempts to delegitimize mail-in ballots, pressure institutions, and undermine a peaceful transfer of power, with several concluding that his supporters and allies will continue the conflict beyond any single election outcome.34

The middle of the thread is dominated by criminal and civil cases, with reactions to indictments, fraud findings, the E. Jean Carroll verdict, and repeated calls for accountability. Even when some legal setbacks are noted, the prevailing view is that Trump will weaponize them politically, exploit the courts as a campaign platform, and avoid meaningful punishment.56

Later posts focus on the second term’s foreign-policy and domestic fallout: tariffs, threats against allies, attacks on Ukraine, Gaza rhetoric, executive overreach, and growing comparisons to authoritarian rule. The tone hardens into exasperation, with users describing the administration as chaotic, unhinged, and dangerous both to the US and to the wider world.78

"The House has just voted to impeach President Trump for the second time"

"The jury has found former US President Donald Trump GUILTY of falsifying business records"

Verdict

No real consensus is reached beyond broad agreement that Trump is destabilizing institutions and normalizing extreme behavior. The thread leaves open whether legal, electoral, or institutional checks will meaningfully restrain him, but participants overwhelmingly view the trajectory as dangerous.

Balance of Power 2026 Mid-Term Elections

  • Democrats control House/Democrats control Senate

  • Democrats control House/Republicans control Senate

  • Republicans control House/Republicans control Senate

  • Republicans control House/Democrats control Senate


Picks are hidden until it locks, . You can change yours until then.

In the event of a Tie, 50 seats each, the Senate will be considered Republican controlled as the Vice President casts the tie breaking vote.

Still really struggle to comprehend this world we live in. The shit Trump and his croonies do and say and get away with. Unbelievable.
The truly insane part is how everyone has just accepted this complete toddler behaviour as normal. The standard keeps dropping with every day that passes. If this is where we are now, I shudder to think where we'll be in two years time.

I voted Democrats control House/Democrats control Senate in the poll "Balance of Power 2026 Mid-Term Elections".

More through hope than actual belief. You would hope that the American people have woken up to this car crash of an Administration but I'm not filled with confidence that the Democrats will win both.

The US government bullies and mocks and spreads outrageous lies about EU countries and the UK at every opportunity while praising Russia, and the strongest response the UK government can muster is this half-baked, vague disagreement. FFS, when will any government come out and label the entire Trump government as loathsome, corrupt, amoral scumbags? If one country took the lead, the rest would follow. But no one has the nerve to do it.

Europe has been weak with both Trump and Russia. The only person who has stood up to Trump is Mark Carney.

I think there is going to be so much voter suppression and interference in the Midterms that we will end up with the Republicans still holding both. It is crazy the amount of stuff that is coming out of America every day that leaves us in disbelief but it is all aimed at Trump clinging to power - by hook or by crook.
