Do you think you could not think about Trump for one full day?

i mean, it's political. but really it's just wildly speculative to talk shit about Trump.

no one here is going to deep dive into how Trump might change Venezualan policy. no one is going to talk about how Trump would change the situation in Africa. etc.

a few people will talk about how Trump would make Brexit worse then the shitposting circlejerk will begin. and i'm just fine with that fyi

If you want to talk about that stuff, I'll at the very least listen.

Confidence would be at an all time high since they would all be aligned?

Well at a glance based on Trump's glee that we secured the oil in Iraq i think we can guess he'd run about the same system in Venezuala. tbh i dont think that much if anything would change except a few more crying girls in the president's mansion each night. he'd be as ruthlessly authoritarian towards protesters, he'd control as much of the countries resources as possible, and he'd never cede control. unless it was to his son.

i think overall when we look at the dictators and authoritarian regimes of the world we could replace their leader with Trump and not much would change day to day. Trump isn't a ruthless authoritarian, but imo it's because he can't get away with it in America. africa might be Trump's worst place to rule, as he'd most likely pimp out his entire nation for a 5% profit share in the chinese miners while his country starves.

the one anomaly would be Russia, where the KGB deepstate would never accept a feckless man like Trump unless to use him as a pure figurehead while they run the country and he takes criticism. honestly i think even in NK trump would do what kim is doing. slowly progress in a bubble, saber rattle, and fuck hot chicks at the rate of 3-4 a day while eating fast food.

the interesting cases would be something like Norway or Sweeden. but the polar shift that it would cause is so insane to fathom that it's hard to even speculate. i'd even go on to say that given the mentality of the population the rise of a figure like Trump isn't possible, it would require a shift in the underlying sensibilities or some typifying event.

Trump most likely could run the Philippines, along the same trajectory they're on now, better than he's running the USA. or at least more successfully.

the worst place for trump for america would be something like Mexico, as he'd just be bowing to the same cartel that he criticizes others for bowing to.

lastly i think it would be funny to see Trump run Canada like a Rob Ford type national figure. Canada seems soft in some aspects but i really think they're the closest in the first world to getting a Trump like figure next (since Britain arguably has theirs).

You must be new here. Saucy isn't trying to actually spark an intellectual conversation about politics.

He's trying to rub one out to the thought of trump.

Also, don't @ me anymore.


lool

i thought about policy then realized i dont know enough, so i went for just some general thought experiments. really the only country other than the USA that i know enough about to speak on a policy specific level would be North Korea. maybe Canada to a lesser extent, but more through exposure than research.
