Predictions - 2024 Election

[I Have Questions]

Jan. 25, 2017: During a meeting with lawmakers, the newly inaugurated president says that German professional golfer Bernhard Langer was prevented from voting in 2016 because there was a long line of suspicious Latin American individuals ahead of him. Follow-up reporting reveals that Langer is not an American citizen and did not attempt to vote in the election at all; according to Langer, he heard a similar story from a friend and relayed it to someone who then told it to “a person with ties to the White House,” which would mean that Trump had been told the (obviously false) anecdote fifth-hand.

Congratulations Ceeboo. You’ve elected a pathological liar.

Aug. 2, 2017: Trump tells the Wall Street Journal that a discursive, partisan speech he gave to a crowd of Boy Scouts at the organization’s national jamboree was, according to a call he received afterward from “the head of the Boy Scouts,” “the greatest speech that was ever made to them.” The Boy Scouts respond in a statement, “We are unaware of any such call.”

Your new President just makes stuff up. Pathological liar.

July 12, 2018: Trump, in Europe for a NATO summit, says that his father was “from Germany,” a claim he goes on to reiterate at least twice more during his administration while in the presence of Europeans, at one point stating specifically that Fred Trump was “born in a very wonderful place in Germany.” As is well-established in the public record, Fred Trump was born in New York City. Fred Trump’s father was born in Germany—but this, too, is a subject that Donald Trump had lied about publicly, writing in The Art of the Deal that his father’s family was from Sweden in what was apparently an effort to keep the Trump name from being associated with Nazism. (Oops.) —HG

Is there a level of stupid that Trump could reach where you’d have second thoughts about voting for him? And that’s a serious question, because I don’t think there is.

Not many right-minded people would have predicted that a majority of American voters would be brainless enough to vote a convicted felon into high office. Again. Will you be drinking bleach to cure Covid Ceeboo? If not, why not?

Here’s the actual quote:

"And then I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning? So it'd be interesting to check that."

To be fair, he didn’t specifically mention ‘bleach’; he has left the options open to injecting all sorts of cleaning agents, like lye, Easy Off, or Mr. Clean.

Ceeboo wasn't buying what the experts were selling. Here were my predictions (copied from the OP):

Imagine that.

Not many right minded people (as you call them) have a world view that is based in enough fact to make accurate predictions then. It's kind of funny to see Schmo who claims to be all about the facts and reality, completely unable to come to grips with the current reality, much less make accurate predictions about the future.

It's kind of ironic that you're invoking COVID nonsense. It's the Democrat's economy killing authoritarian response to COVID that created the economy that allowed Trump to become president again. It's a shame the country had to learn the hard way about the results of Democrat policies but at least they got it right this time. I didn't think they would either.

We’re going on 4 years and you’ve yet to determine which ‘Democratic Party policy’ created worldwide inflation. : )

Your comment is less serious than Trump suggesting that we can inject disinfectants into our body to kill COVID.

But it’s not Covid nonsense, Trump literally told people to try injecting themselves with disinfectant because it cures Covid within 60 seconds. I mean, WTF?

Your economy performed at a similar rate over the last two Presidential terms. That’s Trump & Biden. Republican & Democrat. How will you blame the Democrats for the economic performance in four years time?

Meanwhile, in the dark realm of facts (which ajax fears to wander), a sustained 10% increase in oil prices generally causes a 2.7% increase in the consumer price index.

Somehow though, it is Biden's fault that Trump tanked the oil market when he double-crossed OPEC, then gave wavers to Iran, causing a huge swath of American oil companies to go bankrupt, then tried to overcorrect by making a new deal with OPEC, in which they masterfully out-negotiated him getting revenge for his double-cross, cutting production, and ballooning oil prices.

That Trump's OPEC deal that ballooned oil prices was still in effect 18 months into Biden's term, and you can literally watch oil prices and inflation respond a month after Trump's deal expired, it's Democrat's fault. Those rascally Democrats, and their time machines, and mind control devices that make Trump do stupid stuff.

Congratulations Ceeboo. You’ve elected a pathological liar.

Being a pathological liar and a narcissist was an endearing trait to Trump's base.

The same way Democrats blamed Trump for inflation.
