Ah but it costs the right taxpayers, i.e. the non-wealthy.

I just saw pictures of the guy who blew up the cybertruck in front of Trump's hotel. God he looks like just a normal guy!

It's OK. He's already completely forgotten he even said that.

Kind of hard to "deport" someone born in New York State. Is the plan to strip his enemies of their citizenship and banish them from the country?
Yes, I know, the reality is that he's just talking out of his ass, like always

He still doesn't know how tariffs work? None of his underlings managed to get that through? His gal pal Elon didn't explain it?

I'm still trying to get past the random capitalization of words. I mean, the Caps Lock part is a given.

Yup.
The four years of his first term were effectively consequence free.
He got almost nothing done of his banner policies (and only those that required dismantling what was already in place, actually building something is completely beyond an individual and/or party which have no interest in governing) and yet attracted more votes when he ran in 2020.
The whole Republican party, and especially the MAGA crowd, have absolutely no interest in getting anything done bar lining their own pockets at the expense of the American public (especially the MAGA base).
If he implements his tariffs, gets his tax cuts, explodes the deficit, spikes inflation and puts a huge drag on the economy, he, the GOP and the right wing mediasphere will blame the Democrats and the Deep State and 50% or thereabouts of the US electorate will believe them.
I'm sure that, in the case of treasonous actions that imperil the United States, it's possible to strip the perpetrator of their citizenship.
Given that the President has complete immunity then it could be argued that any attempt to charge someone for actions taken when they were President, were a past President, were thinking about becoming President or indeed were eating President brand Camembert is treason and so stripping that person of their citizenship is fine and dandy.
So long as it's a Republican who was charged - in the case of a Democrat that's fine.

Big goals for Trump. He is still determined to win the 2020 election and the popular vote for the 2016.

He emerges from his plane. The party greeting him says "Have a nice trip? Good. We're not selling, moron. Now you can go back home."

He will try to snort all the snow he sees.
The ruling party are desperate to gain independence, and they know they need a financially muscular big brother to lean on, so while they're not for sale, they're absolutely willing to sell out.
The story has really blown up in Danish media over the last few hours, espcially since the leader of Greenland's government cancelled a meeting with the King. It's been labelled a private visit to get around the fact that trump isn't president yet, and it would be unheard for a foreign official to visit and negotiate with a constituent country without involving the foreign department.

And since Trump jnr is not a US official, it is illegal for him to represent the USA in negotiations with other countries. That is potentially treason.
