…according to Trump. He says God saved his life for a purpose. His speech was more like a State of the Union than an inaugural. The backup music failed, but Carrie did a great job. Probably more symbolic of the next four years. ---

I would be happy if Trump accomplishes even a little of what he says he will do. However, the skeptic in me thinks this term will be like his last term. ---

His project is to build an authoritarian state to promote a very religious and conservative society, for the benefits of multi milliardaires. ---

> [@arikel88](#): > > He was president 4 years and stopped that now he can give money and power to the people I suspect you have no idea who Trump is. Just remember the implication that he was convicted of 34 felonies by a jury of his peers and has 3 more felonies pending. He just pardoned 1500 felons from prison, including killers of police officers. But as president he is now “untouchable”. There are dark clouds at the horizon! ---

As a civilization our most important task at this time in my opinion is to Constitutionalize AI. I thought the way government moves we would have a decade to get AI fully up and running. After Trump initiated Stargate, I now believe our timetable is closer to two years. Trump said the government will invest one-half trillion in Stargate. Just as the fifth and fourteenth amendments protect our private property rights we need to have “Knowledge” rights protected for all Americans. We want AI to make our lives better and AI could be a good pathway in that direction. ---

> [@mikeyohe](#): > > We want AI to make our lives better and AI could be a good pathway in that direction. Oh Mike, you are so naive. To Trump AI is a means to get richer, never mind the presidency. Yes, he wants to make our lives better and that is why he started his “reign” with pardoning and releasing hundreds of violent and criminally convicted insurrectionists, with actual cop-killers among them, while deporting hard working tax paying unregistered aliens, somewho are actually born in the US and should be recognized as citizens as stipulated by the Constitution.
