Trump is only president-elect yet is already embroiled in several possibly devastating crises that could haunt his entire term and or plunge America into an unthinkable situation.

Surely this is only the tip of the iceberg and we haven't seen anything yet. I think it's pretty clear Trump only operates in one mode and that is “total war”. If anyone thought he was just acting to get elected, fear not, he is deep down either far worse than we could believe or like a frightened beast is doubling down on the only thing he knows, however inappropriate.

This is a good time to start making predictions about what we think will likely happen during his first term, so what do you say? Surely I will have missed several likely possibilities so go ahead and lay them out in reply.

I predict within 30 days Trump will create the position of presidential taster after he discovers that he has frequently been served and has eaten food containing spit, **** (rhymes with spit) and pubic hair. And that's just when he is at home!

Not trusting anyone Trump will create the Office of First American Republican Tasters, or FART as it will be known. The office will be staffed by Native Americans, African Americans or Mexican Americans, not that Trump knows the difference, who will taste test his food before he eats it.
 
I predict that Trump will continue to say things that keep the left in a perpetual state of outrage while not actually DOING anything outrageous.

Normally I would think this was a joke but after 2016 I have to consider it as a possibility. I look forward to FART and the critical work they do keeping Trump's Murica safe.

I think the first part has 5 9's of probability in happening; the latter half though is deeply in jeopardy. Surely once Trump takes office he will put his money where his mouth is and it will truly be a spectacle to witness.
 
Trump knows what he is doing. He is the kid with the big stick. He isn't afraid of anyone with a little stick. It is that simple.
 
every time he doesn't clear his tweets--

every time he ****s on his own intelligence services, putting their lives on the line, for the guy who kisses assange's ass--

the same assange trumpuke said should have been given the death penalty six years ago

I think people are going absolutely bonkers for no reason other than the fact that they know that much of what was "accomplished" over the past 8 years is about to be undone. Energy, education, immigration, foreign policy... things are about to change and the Dems are going to have to be careful in picking their battles.

Democratic pundits have the luxury of being able to battle everything but they are unarmed to actually do anything about it... and that is why they are going absolutely bonkers.

It has been predicted that Trump as president will bring nothing but grief to the USA. People from outside the country are saying more and more that your president elect is a security risk. Look, Assange is an enemy of the USA and yet Trump trusts him about the Russian meddling in the election that he does the USA intelligence agencies. Now, if that does not set up a red flag...then one must say that Americans are pretty naive if not downright stupid.
 
I think Trump is going to ignore the world's problems and America's problems and make it his personal mission to make Democrats heads explode.

I predict that leftwingers and fake independents will continue to underestimate Trump just like during the campaign, making them look foolish.

The only certainty of the Trump presidency is that these sorts of unhinged, frantic, Chicken Little OPs will continue unabated from our leftist friends for the next 4 years. The only thing that will put an end to this mindless drivel is Trumps re-election in 2020 that will send all these loony leftist End-Timers to the nearest loony bin.

I certainly underestimated just how thin-skinned and dangerous he is.

Jumping in bed with putin was bad enough.

But assange--trump wanted to give him the death penalty 6 years ago.

And smooth move by the corrupt GOP house in trying to gut ethics oversight !

Yer obviously referring to the blatant irrational lying vomit spewed by rightists at Obama on day one .

No, I'm not actually. Although there was a good deal of that, you people on the left have proven your mastery over the right when it comes to 'blatant irrational vomit spewing lies.'
 
I predict Trump will do/say something stupid.
:roll: and I predict the Earth will continue to spin such that the sun rises in the East.

When you "predict" a law of nature, it's cheating, Governess.

... Where in the world did you learn the notion that having a big stick meant one was competent to the task they were attempting to acheive?
I predict many Trump haters will have constant meltdowns no matter what he does.
Thereby enabling him by making him immune to effective criticism.

Eh, I'm not going to predict anything, but the fact is that I fear all of the above, including Trump policies both helping the US economy as Wall Street deregulates and runs amuck while the stock market inflates accordingly, to destroying the US economy when the inflated market collapses, along with most people's pensions, savings, and retirement accounts.

Every time Trump tweets, somewhere in the world international leaders will panic, fearing the next impulsive uttering that could lead to unnecessary, and escalating armed confrontation. He hasn't even taken office yet and he has done something no other president-elect has done: Stepped all over the sitting president, contradicting his policy decisions, and pretending basically that Obama now works for him... or that they are now equals, when one has eight years experience with the global realities and the other is busy trying to figure out how he can keep his tax "audit" going for four more years, use the presidency to bolster his private business interests, and cut corporate and 1%er tax rates, forcing congress to balance the budget on the back of working people to replace the billions of elitist revenue that will no longer hit the federal coffers.

I believe with Trump at the helm, Russia will continue to flout international law, invade neighboring countries, create alliances with the biggest despots on the planet, and establish another USSR, bigger, better, and badder. Trump will then give Putin a big thumbs up, saying, "Now there's a leader who knows how to bolster his holdings and diversify!"

I also fear preemptive strikes on North Korea (The Donald's gotta show this Un guy who's the boss) which will result in retaliation costing thousands of lives.

I hope I'm wrong. If I were a religious person, I would pray that I am.

Not nearly as bad as the ethics gutting that went on at the Dept of Justice under Obama.
 
I think he may get a large number of us killed.



Not that that hasn't happened before.
