Given the state of the US right now, I think Trump is just one head on the Hydra that has the US by the balls - plenty of people in the shadows behind the throne, including JD Vance.
None of them have trumps charisma though. I just don't imagine Vance or any of the others to have anywhere near the same influence on the MAGA base. I may be wrong, though

Does his majesty still think this tyrant is worthy of a state visit? I doubt it tbh. I can't think that anyone else does now, if anyone ever did.

I get why it was offered, Starmer in the White House trying to woo him.. but he's too far gone now...
Since when were criminals and persecutors with such disregard for human rights and disrespect for, well, anything afforded such a privilege.
I think the protests here will, and probably should start soon...

He's not welcome

Jon Sopel, writing for the Independent, says exactly the same thing

They don’t it’s true. However, I think the outspoken MAGA Trump base is only the tip of the iceberg of the very deep chasm ripping America in two ideologically speaking. If the ‘deep state’ wanted Trump dead he’d be dead by now imo. Trump being assassinated would give the MAGA movement an enormous impetus - they‘d have a true martyr and any movement with a martyr for a figurehead is very powerful as history demonstrates.

In some respects, Trump’s less dangerous alive than he would be dead!

Ideally he needs to just choke on a cheeseburger or keel over from a heart attack - being assassinated would (as you say) create martyr status.

However he died, a large swathe of his maniac support would put it down to foul play.

Really? GCCM Junior is out there visiting a (lovely) American friend right now. California seems one of the better US states. In fact he never once mentioned it was anything like Croydon.
San Fran/La are in an awful condition. Homelessness/crime/drug use

California is a rather large area, parts of it are lovely, the drive up the pacific coast is beautiful

This is completely true.

Unfortunately, his parents lived very long lives so the chances are, he'll be going well into his 90s. However, when he does die, his moronic cult will find a conspiracy theory to explain it.

It has happened many times with the Queen having to host despicable leaders and be nice to them.

I would love it if hardly anybody turns up.
He's still boast that it was the bigliest and bestest crowd the world has ever seen, and evidence of his God-like status.

Why does he use YMCA for his campaign. It seems to have little connection to MAGA and Trump. Will no one else let him use their songs?
The foetid fuckwit probably thinks it stands for Yo, Maga Conquers All.

Are the American public now realising the US is sliding towards a police state or are the MAGAS in the majority ?
He'll probably convince enough people that the protestors are simply a 'radical Left' mob, and therefore deserve to be shot or locked-up.

After all, when protestors at Kent State University were shot dead by the National Guard back in 1970, the dominant view was "Serves them right. The Commie scum got what they deserved."

The last couple of minutes of this extract says it all......


Its all there now, there's no hiding anymore when America is heading.

I'm sure DT has this screenshot on his phone to remind him to stay on track
