Yes I know the cliche saying of “every president is war criminal” blah blah blah. But last president atleast were attacked or provoked by recognized threat. Trump has -
- Tried to coup the US government over election results
- Sent ICE agents into cities to harass the public
- Defended ICE killing civilians by labeling victims as “domestic terrorist”
- Bombed Nigeria on Christmas 2025 (it’s unknown the casualty count), Nigeria did not attack us
- Illegally invaded Venezuela and kidnapped their leader and his wife, Venezuela did not attack us
- Is currently starving the country of Cuba with no food, electricity or aid, Cuba did not attack us
- Is spreading false information about White Genocide in South Africa
- Killed Iranian Generals in his first term after tearing up Obama’s Iran Peace Deal
- Bombed a school of little girls in Iran
- Started a war with Iran, killing their leader, Iran did not attack us
- Wants to occupy and takeover Greenland, Greenland did not attack us or ask for this
- Inplements unprofessional and nonsensical tariffs on the Global economy
And so much more. Why dosent social media, traditional media, reddit, lemmy, democrats, ANYBODY ever call this gu ya terrorist. No other president has caused this much global terror in the modern era.
People do call him out on reddit, lemmy, and other social media. As for bigger names, it’s not just a matter of what’s true, but what the practical consequences would be.
Because Trump is so petty and vindictive, people tend to not want to say things that will tick him off. Foreign leaders might be of the mindset of “weathering the storm” in the hopes he’s replaced by someone better, while domestic media outlets risk being cut out of press briefings if they say anything critical of him.
As for the Democrats, they have all kinds of screwed up priorities. They’re constantly trying to appeal to the “center” and be accommodating to a fault. The right has criticized them for “promoting violence” when they do call someone a fascist or similar. They’re all about bipartisanship and you can’t really do that while calling the other side terrorists, regardless of the actual truth.
the one controlling trump is a greater threat but he funds enough propaganda and right wing governments to insulate himself. trump is a mere tool, and by chance the manosphere plays into this as well, you need sexually frustrated right wing men otherwise your power collapses without them.
You’ll never guess who’s been put in charge in deciding who gets called a terrorist.
Because the only difference between a terrorist group and an army is the size of their budget.

Not to defend Trump but that’s not true. US has been starting illegal wars of aggression for it’s entire existence.
The Iraq war was “justified” largely for the same reason the Iran war is being.

To distract everyone from the Epstein files?
That is the real reason, not how it was ‘justified’.
I mean, people do, although terrorist isn’t a super accurate label for him. Terrorist implies using violence to create terror for a political gain. Trump generally is more acting out of sheer stupidity and malice rather than for any deeper political agenda. Terms like violent madman, fascist, war criminal, murderer or wannabe dictator are more accurate.
Donestic Terrorist.
Unclear if typo, or the new correct spelling for that term.
Holy shit, I might’ve cooked 😭
He is, but the 1% like him because he helps them make money. My question is, how do we push this message to people on Facebook without giving Zuck more money?
Look who is the majority surrounding him. That’s why.
SCOTUS got hijacked

We actually do all the time. He’s the president of the most powerful and wealthy nation on earth. Most presidents cannot contradict him even though they all think he is an idiot.
We hold a seat on the security council which is essentially for the duration of the organization. It represents, or at least did, the largest, most influential countries in the world during much of the cold war. Russia’s kleptocracy has diminished its strength considerably and Ukraine is bogging them down so badly it’s ruin an already fragile economy.
France and the UK have diminished in scope now but the ratification in 1945 gave them the seats.
The USA is losing its softer powers which were usually economic control because we have the insane asylum patients at the wheel who understand geo-politics as well as a five year old quantum physics.
China is probably the only one whose gaining more power as others waver but that’s not to say they aren’t in some strained shape as well. China is second behind Japan for holding US Debt followed closely by the UK. The next country behind that is Luxembourg at roughly 40% of the UK. If the USA becomes heavily insolvent, which we’re heading because of run away austerity, those countries are not going to be in a good position for long.
With all that, they’re highly reluctant to consider the USA president a terrorist threat or more correctly a rogue national leader. It’d be a game of chicken where all parties would lose essentially.

They had their positions before the cold war started, as they are the “winners” of ww2 (despite Paris was occupied by the nazis).
True enough, ratified in 1945 but it wasn’t that long afterward that the Cold War started.
you would be surprised about how little the average person cares about whether the president is a huge asshole. half the population is fed fox news, which means they’ll get whatever narrative is handy to the rich. the other half is having a mental meltdown on social media which honestly doesn’t help anyone. then there’s the whole thing that i feel like america is just a fundamentally broken and sick society with like 50 problems (each of which feels like it should be lethal) and trump is yet another one of those.
This is all because he is the president of US and US citizens are dickheads for electing him and actually like his show. They dont care if some girls died or a country goes without food, that is why there is so much gun violence. They love violence and like to sing praisen of capitalism and democracy, even tho it is hurting them more but their pride wont acceot that.
Tbh, what really made me make this post was just the thought of those little girls getting instantly killed by tomahawk missles completely unprovoked, funded by my tax dollars from a president who hates people like me anyways.
I mean, is he not? The rest of the world is just scared he’ll nuke something if they push back in any real way.
