All of it
They have a majority in the House, Senate, Executive and he won the popular vote and the electoral college with an indisputable landslide
It's akin to Boris's 2019 victory

How can it be when Trump claimed he knew nothing about it and didn't agree with much of it.

IIRC they just shifted it over to being called something different - Agenda 47 I believe it was

Honestly, the American electorate gets what it deserves. I'm running out of fucks to give.

Farage is probably going to be PM in the UK next the way Reform UK are jumping in the polls
I personally won't condemn England no matter whom they vote for (which is not to condemn you either)

They also have a 'Nigel Farage', Geert Wilders., they feared him doing well but in the next breath were stating the same things were hear across the Western world. Stop Illegal migration, stop helping other countries, stop crazy net zero rules and look after the Dutch. If the centre parties don't recognise that this is the publics view at this time then we will have Trumps in every country. I am a leftie by nature, but I am also a democrat and I clearly hear what the people want.

That's my take. They were looking for evidence that the Democrats are as corrupt as the conspiracy theorists claim. In the end no matter how absurd it seems to many of us, the American people wanted Trump to be president by some margin. IMO that's because a lot of people here seem to be throwing their toys out of the pram because the election didn't go the way they wanted...not a good look (I didn't want him to win either). I don't think it's absurd at all. There are lots of good reasons why it went the way it did it just seems some people don't want to accept it and blaming the intelligence of the electorate is the height of pomposity. Perhaps people should check their confirmation bias. Indeed Many people presently look for theories that carefully avoid the patently obvious

Trump has outlined his plan and priorities in a video address. Sadly, I can't find a copy that is not part of another's commentary
From what i can see - A Social Media law that will require court orders to accompany government requests for content to be removed, transparency regarding restrictions placed on accounts, a right for people to opt out of all censorship and bans/ restrictions on feds taking roles in social media. The end of birthright citizenship and significant numbers of deportations for illegal migrants The cartels to be assigned terrorist status and for US forces to be used to pursue and kill them
This is just an outline - he seems to have become a lot more direct in the last four years (good). I'm hopeful some of this will get done - he has the power now

It's possible the Trump win will do a giant favour for the Democratic Party. The honest and normal people in the party, now get a chance to over-throw the perverts and criminals currently in charge of their party and create something worthwhile.

Even Democrats are starting to notice something a bit 'off' about the 2020 figures
