lol, No really, listen to the exact wording being used they never say American but always "US citizen"

And no wheel of words being spun just trying to help with not ending up being taken down and spending all day being finger printed and confirmed a US citizen. I guess the slang term American is on it's way out and maybe for the best. I think it's funny myself, "are you American? , "yes", "are you a US citizen?" ,"no" and the door is open to investigate each and every person in the United States. Then again that's what happens if you target people based on how they look.

The question is: How are you going to cope when Trump is elected for the third time?

Your slipping there you mean the fourth right? And the same as this third time actually and if he doesn't complete verification of every person in the US by then then by the fourth time we will get around to the other races also. Whether their Russian,English,Australian,Canadian,Ethiopian or Chinese I'm all for having a look at them.

It depends where you are in Germany too.
For example, if you are in Berlin you may not be as woke as West Germany but there are exceptions everywhere too.
For example, there are many conservatives in democratic areas or states in America too.

Well, i come from the Middle. Not very big City around. And in dead Berlin is special.
But i would say Berlin is the most woke city.
But this was not my question.

I tried to answer your question by saying that there are conservatives in liberal areas and there are liberals in conservative areas.
Also since the majority of the US citizens voted for Trump, it means that the majority thinks that Trump is the best at restoring balance from the woke virus.

I certainly think he'd like to be a dictator; along with his buddy Elon. That seems to be the direction things are going. The guy pardoned over 1,000 violent J6 rioters on his first day in office. They didn't express remorse, but seem to be anxious to do it all again. That pretty much says it all.

What he's doing isn't normal for the US. He's testing the waters to see how much he can get away with, whether it's legal or not. I'm not as worried about Trump as I am about the people in Washington who have the power to do something about it. If they don't step up and soon I'm afraid we're all going to be very sorry.

Woke is everything non-logical and non-sensical, so the Trump administration is restoring common sense, which depending on what ideologies you support, it may seem as "dictatorial" to you or others.
Since some people on the left are unable to have introspection and learn from their mistakes as evidenced in the latest DNC meeting, it means that we're on a good path to restore common sense even further.

How much this System is able to handle? If he is going to replace the people.
When I saw some Interviews and how people follow Him, doesnt matter what he does. It remind me what i now from our own past when Hilter was in power. He was shouting : Want you the total war? And the people shoutet back: Yes!

After what we just went through with the Biden Admin persecuting their political opponents, and even decent, God fearing Americans going to school board meetings protesting the teaching of Transgender madness to their kids, or silently praying at abortion clinics?

Heck no!

We need to restore the intended functions of gov agencies like the FBI, CIA, Homeland, Education Dept, etc....

I personally see that Trump had the idealism to do many of the things he's now doing in his first term but was waiting to do them in his second term. Unfortunately, he didn't get a second term until the Democrats screwed up so bad that Americans were glad to hand power back to Trump. But Trump knows there's no 3rd term so he isn't afraid to fulfill the things he promised and always believed in doing.

As to your concerns, God placed Trump in Office. God is fulfilling His purposes. And ultimately what this will lead to is the Plan of God being aligned with God's timeline. I sense that revival is closer now than it could have been had Harris won. Disinformation such as people using the Bible and God to scare people into obedience is relevant everywhere you go in the United States. Harris would have drowned out belief and created more attacks upon the Church. But now we're set up for a final push we know as the Great Falling Away.

We should be celebrating. We're closer to the Return of God than ever before. That's exciting.

Only problem is everything the Donald wants to do is either illegal or unconstitutional. Sorry, but this is the USA, presidents don't get to do anything they want just because they made a campaign promise. Just because he thinks he has some sweeping mandate, that doesn't give him the right to violate the Constitution. And whatever mandate he thinks he has, it's not that sweeping. Very early on it looked like he had a large popular vote win, but after all the votes have been counted his popular vote margin turned out to be one of the lowest ever. More people voted for Harris or someone else.

Just an observation here. I really have not, other than specific left idealism programming, heard anyone complaining about what Trump has been doing. Naturally, those talk show programs mention but even the people who claim to hate Trump demographically have voted to approve Trump. No other president in the United States history has ever had his approval rating for the beginning of the first weeks in Office.

Now I said all of that to say this.

If he's getting such an overwhelming approval rating in every State that he factually is, he pretty much has permission to do anything he wants to do because overall the American people are for it. So it's not him breaking the Law but the citizens of the United States ignoring the Laws so he can do the job they are asking him to do.
