John Bolton stuns a British audience with announcement he WILL run for POTUS in 2024

Trump is a populist. He does whatever he thinks will make and keep him popular. He miscalculated with the vaccines. Have you ever watched an entire rally of him speaking? He's very adept at reading a crowd and feeding them what they want and dropping to move on when he says something they don't like.
Yes. He qualified his vaccine comment with 'If you want to. Nobody should be forced to get vaccinated'


'Moving on'='going off script'. Typically, staff cringes.

On a related note, I was listening to an interview with Woodward re. his book release. When he asked trump his plan for the virus which was ravaging the nation, he said (not sure of the exact number) 'I'll have an answer in 103 days'.

That was election day. It was obvious from day one that he tried to use Covid as a campaign issue. Which is why he fumed over the delay in vaccine release.

It worked. It was a campaign issue. ;)

popular with working people.

populism yes means popular, but it also means for regular people over the elitists.

it has class connotations to it.

Hatemongers and political extremists alike use wedge issues to rally their faithful and seek to confuse the stupid on which way to go.

It's one reason that there are more Independents than either Democrats or Republicans.
 
like doubling down on child grooming?

Trumpers and Pedo Nazis are notorious pedophiles so I can understand why they double down on it.

Notice how not a single Trumper has ever acknowledged that Trump was raping slave girls, 15-17 years old, on his friend's Pedo Island.
 
like doubling down on child grooming?

You mean Epstein and Trump who hung around for a decade or so? They were procured young girls.Trump said "Jeffery likes them young, even younger than I do". Yeah, that was terrible.
If you mean gays, they are not groomers. They seek adult relationships with other adult gays.

but groomers are groomers. gays are not groomers if they're sexualizing other adults, but if they're sexualizing children that makes them groomers.

So a tax break largely for the wealthy and corporations was populism? Slashing environmental regulations was pro-people.? Trum was a president for the wealthy in policy. His rhetoric was the opposite. You bought the words over deeds.

no.

tariffs are. enforcing the borders is.
 
Why would Bolton's announcement stun anyone, particularly Brits? Bolton was never highly thought of and his rep has not gathered esteem over the years. He is a base PNACer who was on the ground floor of the wealthy and corportions taking over the country.

EXCELLENT POINT! I wonder how many of the MAGA minions even remember, much less recognize the significance of, the PNAC manifesto?

Bolton is one of the few people on Earth I would love to see drop dead from a brain aneurysm, and I have no guilt or remorse in that wish.

They are not sexualizing anyone. They just want a normal adult relationship with another gay. Guys having sex with kids are priests or pederasts.
