another proof that Biden was way too soft to be president

republicans created a monster

Texas wouldn’t blink at a chance to do that

the question, however, is not about which firms are comprised. it is about “when” they will cave in

which means the system has severe flaws

can’t blame them for buying Trump and his acolytes so easily…

the tragedy is that the USA has no mechanism to keep their president in check

or a bot farm impersonating MAGAs and the press fall for it because nowadays no one verifies anything and X’s verification is meaningless since Elon made it so anyone who pays get one, bot or not

“US security assistance” is a myth and a lie at this point

Trump’s pettiness, greed, unstoppable urge to gloat, and his understanding that if he lays the foundation for something useful, only his precedessors might reap the benefits

What Trump and MAGA wanted can be done… but over a period of many years (like 20+ years) of careful and purposeful policy making.

A mob-led “American Constitutionalist Revolution of 2025” has a nice ring to it

I blame the rise of social media - especially the video version - for giving a voice to the idiots and letting their sheer high quantity distort facts with clickbaity and rage inducing headlines

Indeed, since the administration threatened to arrest supreme court justices as well

Also, China has a shitload of US debt that they can use as leverage

Trump accelerated. Idiot

Amen

The way powers are divided according to the constitution does not work and it never did because the only constraint was the assumption that the president would have honor and not abuse it… Time for a new one

Current DNC leadership might push Hillary for 2028

What shock? AOC is the only one in that party with clear positioning

Even worse - since he can create chaos, he and his family are in an unique position to short sell and do other insider trading, becoming ridiculously wealthy in the process
