It's counterproductive to make claims like what you're claiming, because their supporters and people on the fence will turn around and point out how you're wrong in 4 years, or whatever.
There's still elections in Russia, Turkey, etc. And those leaders are very popular.
But they're not democracies. Opposition is not really permitted. Where legal repression isn't in place, mob violence and the like is employed.
That's the template you can expect to see followed.
Not that I think the next 4 years of Trump will be bad for the avarage american. I think I will be troubled for the whole world because things are already walking in this direction.
Thiel paid for Vance’s successful Senate campaign. Now his made man is next in line for the presidency (behind an overweight 78-year-old with memory issues). An amazing ROI for his money.
Both Thiel and Vance have expressed their admiration for Curtis Yarvin, an extreme reactionary who advocates for a monarchy. Thiel has publicly said that democracy was a mistake and it all went wrong when women got the vote.
Musk’s Tesla job title is “Techno-King” which is also a Yarvin reference. These people have a plan, and old Donald is a tool for them.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMYdu-vTuPI - "The REAL Reason Behind J.D. Vance’s VP Pick; Marty sits down with Whitney Webb and Mark Goodwin to discuss the partnership of the private tech sector with the surveillance state."
It's a two hour interview. Discussion of JD Vance and Palantir connection is at 12:30ish. A lot of "tin-foil hat" things seem pretty real.
Yes it's tragically ironic that the people who believe most in outlandish conspiracy theories vote for the people who are openly involved in the most outlandish conspiracies, none of which said conspiracy theorists care about.
Vance may become president much sooner than 2029, and Thiel and Musk will be the greatest beneficiaries.
He must've gotten confused with his tax records which he also never published.
Both of them had issues. And both of them got much worse since.
Eyes were batted, but there's no reason to change your vote because of a problem that both choices have.
And then it became an problem that only one choice had, but it feels like almost all the Trump supporters that were being loud about age issues were disingenuous...
Donald is harder to control, he doesn't like homework and will ad-lib and improvise at all times.
Every 4 years the same stuff happens, and yet every 4 years there is a so called "paradigm shift" or "rubicon crossed", when actually, nothing has really changed. It's getting really cringe and predictable.
It does seem very likely that the Republican Party will govern the US for decades to come, like Perón's party has governed Argentina in between the military dictatorships, or Chávez's party governs Venezuela.
Either you're a troll, governed by recency bias (i.e. today), or not very competent in US politics. If the Democrats could get their act together even just slightly, they should have won 2016 and this election as well. How? It's simple demographics:
More and more people move to cities -> cities are typically blue -> easy for dems to get elected.
There should be absolutely no reason democrats lose so often and yet due to their incompetent antics they lose far more than they should.
Just stop being stuborn, start thinking about solving us real problems, and not demonizing the other party, and maybe the democrats will have a chance in the next election.
He already tried to perform a coup and failed, I don't see why he wouldn't try again
Just a bunch of morons who went too hard on the joke.
They wherent even armed... what a shit coup.
I don't support Trump. I can't vote in any country. I have no horses in this race, but seeing the lies and propaganda (from both sides) actually working is insane - the propaganda isn't even that good guys.
I also don't have a horse in the race, I'm not american and this is me exposing some of the lies around his presidency. He did it once and he will do it again. I don't see why I should belive that he somehow changed.
The media coverage around this guy is so insane that he can do whatever he wants and you'll still have people who will deny it.
Trump has learned from his previous presidency, though. This time there will only be yes-men that show absolute loyalty.
