Absolutely.
Trump will have come and gone again at least 6 months before Starmer even needs to think of another election by August 2029.
Plus he'll be a virtual lame duck President in around 3 and a half years anyhow.
Also going for good this time thankfully.

However, having said that.
I cannot stand Trump, I think he's a paranoid narcissistic egomaniac.

HOWEVER, he will likely want to leave some lasting positives from his terms as President.
So I'm hoping for peace from him.
I do think his being unpredictable at being unpredictable is a weird kind of asset.

If he can and does try to bring about some peace across the World then that will be commendable and so I hope he will work for that.
Which if he does I'll admire that.

I think it depends on what happens too during the midterms and how that vote goes. A lot can change and right now he has a full mandate...

I admire your optimism Joey - I don't have much hope for what's coming after Trump, it will almost certainly be worse. The US as we know it is done.

There is no "in the know" they're openly selling American politics to multi-billionaires. They're not hiding it. The US was founded on the idea of capitalism and the free-market, that much is true, but what's going on now with the tech giants is not that. This is a fundamental shift in US politics, it's not reversible. I'm not pretending to have any "secret knowledge" - it's simply what is factually happening... what I can never figure out LT is if you're deliberately pretending not to see it, or genuinely completely void of political and economic literacy.

It wouldn't change anyone's perception of them individually imo even if they were. Both seemed to be independent in terms of how they each carried out their role in the public. So I am not sure there is actually a separation but rather Michelle wants nothing to do with the overall rat race... either can be true. Life is a normal thing so separation would be only natural for some also.

I am bored with the names coming out from either ends of it. The rich and "relevant" are being reshuffled in real time. They all feel it and it's remarkable really. We can see them all coming out of the woodwork to assert their little spots, ie grandiosity ... it's really something, but at least now it is more transparent to the average person. People are wising up and celebrities should be more careful.

By this point, no-one seriously believes he's going to be the "Next Hitler."

Doesn't mean they like him, or are optimistic about his Presidency.

Oh it's not really optimism QB.
It's more a forlorn hope.

I think you make a good point as to the problems he may well leave in the USA after this thankfully FINAL period at least of HIM on the World stage.

I'm going to have to think about this in the context of China. And Russia. And several African, Middle Eastern and Asian countries. Oh, and every over developed nation. But hey... Trump is the worst, right?
