It’s so infuriating that now we have to hope trump doesn’t die, since we’d get vance.
And if they both die then we get President republican Speaker of the House.
Maybe not. The Republicans haven’t secured the house yet. Several races remain undetermined and the Dems could take it.
Now. if I were writing this season, I would let the Dems win. Then have Trump and Vance both pass away (Trump: heart, Vance: An accident involving a reclining couch) and with a Dem house we’d end up with President Hakeem Jeffries who could then appoint Kamala Harris as VP again. Every cranium in the nation with a MAGA cap perched on it would simultaneously explode.
How would you write Vance’s death? He seems to be in ok health, unlike Trump.
Reclining couch “accident.”
Massage chair misshap.
The couch fucked back
What makes you think trimp can’t do this?
I guess this is going to make people who felt poor feel richer, I guess?
If the US pulls out of nato, I hope the nations of the world reform into an alliance that properly stands against US hegemony.
Me too. If we’re going to be Nazi Germany, which it appears we are, I’m cheering for everyone else. I’m fully cognizant that we are solely a force for evil now.
I would hope they create something that stands for something, not just against. As we’ve seen, the US in particular is very flip-floppy. If the US is doing good things, they should work together. Also if Germany falls to the AfD, they probably shouldn’t be part of it. Etc. Standing against a particular thing, while temporarily good at uniting people, isn’t very strong and it’s easy to manipulate
Looks like Elon is getting his money’s worth.
I didn’t wait for any entity to regulate X on my behalf and URL blocked it. It’s my understanding that being a proactive consumer is a touchy subject but it’s merely a suggestion on how to stick it to Musk and the Trump administration
No no no. You just have to remember the cardinal rule of fascism! Everything holds a quantum superposition of right and wrong until you choose to disagree with it… for some reason. Please refer to the following MAGA pseudo-code:
if (woke || baddie) { return "communist cancel culture" } else { return "freedom boycott" }I’m talking more along the lines of the people who feel that being a proactive consumer is tantamount to being a corporate sympathizer because it is perceived that the proactive consumer’s actions normalize the notion that it is the proactive consumer’s burden.
But I personally view it more like going on strike. Corporations (and their lobby) are nothing without money and I will stand in solidarity depriving them
Great. We’re barely 4 days out and we’ve got this guy out there threatening to start WW3 over Twitter.
This message is for all the trumpeters out there and the lazy-ass bigots cosplaying as dems who blew off voting in favour of fapping: you made a bed we all have to lie in. When your demographic starts being killed off to fuel greater hedgemony for the 1% those of us who fought for democracy and individual rights will be the laughing. Until they march us to our graves.
I hate these people so much.
Saddening that a rich man’s interests is more valued than you know, the world’s interests.
There’s a difference?
feckin nuts that we are a client state of russia.
OK X is done in Europe. Every threat should be answered with an equally stupid threat. US: “We will pull out of NATO!” Europe: “You can’t pull out of NATO because we are going to kick you out!” That would be fun.
It makes me physically ill to know this idiot is a heart beat away from a 78 year old president.
Don’t fall for it Europe. Regulate Twitter speech or you will have a stupid voting population fed on Russian misinformation.
US is not a reliable NATO partner if their are blackmailing about such a stupid petty thing right out the gate. Kindly tell us to go tuck ourselves Europe.
Keep the disinformation out, that is a bigger threat than military right bow.
This will never work in the EU. Our regulatory organs are apolitical. They don’t depend on the ruling parliament. The parliament doesn’t appoint the chairs of the organs, nor does the president. The courts also operate independently from the parliament, other than the laws they pass. There are no executive orders to give preferential treatment to some companies in Europe. There are no shady backroom deals because 28 countries must be kept on track at all times.
Empty threats do not concern us.
The billionaires controle the politicians and they don’t even pretend to hide it anymore. We have hit rock bottom.
Looks like Musk has presented his bill.
And there it is. The first Axis alliance.
Back in 2015, who had “WWIII will start in the next 15 years, but the US and Russia will be the bad guys” on their bingo card?
Most of us. Well…right after 2016 anyway.
I’ve had “America will become a Christian Nationalist dictatorship” on my bingo card since shortly after 9/11.
Never saw the Christian-Nationalist Ex-KGB-Agent-Alliance coming until 2016 though. Even when Romney was calling out Russia I was like WTF. Turns out he had inside intel.
I was more referencing Elon as an Axis, but yes.
Musk and Putin are friends, and Musk has been ‘acting as a back-channel with Moscow’.
Tomato tomato.
Americans asked for a plutocracy and by God they will get it.
The thing is most of them won’t know or care as the house falls about their ears.
We care just because it’s as plain as day. The bewildered look when confronted with their created healthcare crisis will be entertaining as hell. The Dems will get the blame for that too.
