Dramatically raising the stakes of the 2024 United States Presidential
elections Donald Trump on Saturday warned that he's the only candidate
capable of saving America from "warmonger" Democrats and the "zealots and
fools" of the mainstream Republican party.

Addressing the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in
Washington, the former president further reiterated his previous claim
that the world may be heading towards "World War III."

He claimed, "before I even arrive at the Oval Office, I will have the
disastrous war between Russia and Ukraine settled. It will be settled
quickly."

"I am the only candidate who can make this promise: I will prevent World
War III."

As per him, thanks to the "great relationship" he shares with Vladimir
Putin, the Russian President will listen to him, and the settlement "will
take me no longer than one day."

Invoking the mental image of a nation on its knees, Trump, as per AFP,
told the conference that American citizens were "in an epic struggle to
rescue our country from the people who hate it and want to absolutely
destroy it."

Voters, according to him, were tired of "entrenched political dynasties in
both parties, rotten special interests, China-loving politicians" and
supporters of "endless foreign wars."

The 2023 edition of the conference drew a smaller crowd than usual but
Trump's case for a second term was met with a packed room and chants of
"four more years, four more years!"

"In 2016, I declared: I am your voice. Today, I add: I am your warrior. I
am your justice. And for those who have been wronged and betrayed: I am
your retribution," said Trump.

The politician has reportedly won the convention's unofficial poll of
potential Republican leaders with 62 per cent of the vote, while with a
much less 20 per cent DeSantis stood second.

### - lol, just had to laff at this clown still tryin' to 'get-in' on the
act?

unfortunately, in this instance re 'warmongers' in the white house, he may
in fact be correct!

coz i dunno about you, but just the very IDEA of the 'left-wing' starting
ww3 (instead of talking/negotiating etc) is anathema: a direct
contradiction of terms?? (hawks are one thing but this is ridiculous!)

and yet here we all are, literally lookin' imminent disaster in the face...

(sigh, i don't think we can stop what's comin' boss, they all gone nuts)
