It won't be as simple as canceling elections and declaring himself president for life.

Probably won't be. Trump might be dumb enough to try it. He's surprised us all before.

The great depression had the bonus march. They camped in front of the white house and were dispersed with tear gas and cavalry charge led by Douglas MacArthur.

That works until their shit gets burned.

When the only things left to buy have to be built with hands and eyes, they will have to share the wealth with the rest of us.

I wish we weren't pinning our hopes on angry mobs. But you play the hand you are delt.

Did you mean "unintuitive?"

Intuitive means it feels right.

That's why I advocate for anarchism.

Take the power away to coerce people.

Walz will be a perfectly normal age to run for president.

Even North Korea has elections. They might not be fair but they will be held.

He can't save us any more than Obama could.

He might be better than Obama (might) but we have to save ourselves.

I'm nervous to hear this already. I want him to be pushed into it, not to want it so much.

"Instead of"

Implies Patel would ever prosecute right wing criminals.

He won't, unless they piss off trump.

60 hours is the sweet spot for maximal control over your employees life with only the normal amount of suicides.

True, but no other system disincentives children like capitalism.

It's one of those look for the helpers kinda times. And then go to work with them.

Turkye is moving against Russia though. They overthrew Assad, a close ally of Russia. And they have sold drones to Ukraine, and trapped the Russian Black sea fleet.

A collapse of Russian power in the Caucus leaves them as top dog in the area. They have a lot to gain from a Russian loss in Ukraine.

The world understands now that he will Parrott the ideas of whoever spoke to him last. Starmer and Macron tried to right the ship and they did for 24 hours. Unfortunately, Putin has people on the inside. Tulsi Gabbard chief among them, feeding Trump a steady diet of Bullshit the Russian bots would embarrassed to type.

I certainly hope so.

Thank you for providing the evidence.

I don't believe the Russian invasions are motivated by brotherly love or a magnanimous spirit of freedom. It's realpolitic and the desire for greater power.

Russia tried to run the same playbook in Ukraine that they did in Georgia.

What does the ethnicity of the inhabitants of the eastern provinces have to do with national borders? Does Mexico have claims to Texas and California? Should the US conquer Canada because of the 10's of thousands of US natives living there?

If Ukraine was abusing it's population it should be censored, sanctioned, it's leaders prosecuted for crimes against international law, but invasion is worse than anything short of genocide. The people of Donesk and Luhansk have had their many of their communities completely destroyed. They are not better off because of the war.

They are fine with women being doctors and dentists. They won't have any respect for those professions if they are female dominated, but they are caring roles so they fit into the fundie worldview. Lawyers might make them uncomfortable. They would be fine with women as paralegals, but they would want a man in the courtroom and the boardroom.

None of them should be paid well enough to live truly independently. Can't have women building wealth outside of marriage. It's a process really. Give them a couple generations in power and they might clamp down on employment outside the kitchen or the nursery.
