Any response from the democrats?

As bad as this is.. it's a distraction from the billions being stolen from elon and our public services. Everyone look at Vance.. no one look at medicaid cuts.

And yep it is all part of the plan!

This bit made me go 'hmmm'.

Older Ukrainians, who grew up in the Soviet Union, have recognised in this situation the US that was depicted by Soviet propaganda cartoons as a nation of greedy, irresponsible, grab-what-you-can capitalists, who spat on complex problems and had eyes only for dollar superprofits.

I cant think of any other country where the opposition party is so scared of criticising the incumbents (well apart from NK, Russia, China...)
We screwed up by setting House terms to two years. It distracts members at best and turns them into cowards as they fear any controversy will damage their re-electability. I’ve come around to the idea that the parliamentary system is better. We also need way more members in the House.

Can't help thinking that the US system really needs a formal 'leader of the opposition'. I know it's a big country, so there are lots of different local political figures, but I find it hard to get my head around a situation where there is no unified voice for what is the 'opposition' party.

Hasn't that particular poster talked before about killing people? (something about shopping carts?).

So not sure what the "now" is there for.

A search seems to suggest they have both expressed hatred of Muslims and complained about white people hating Muslims, so I really can't make sense of them at all.
Nothing to make sense of, dude has openly called for deaths to Muslims. But beyond that insanity, he's actually one of the dumbest mofos in this subforum.
Most people end up ignoring the few kooks in ATPN, like you'd ignore the "weird uncle" at a large family gathering.
Generally nothing good comes from engaging with a lunatic imbecile.

(also explains why Zelenskyy unloaded on Trump & Vance resulted in him getting kicked out by Rubio lol)

Gerrymandering makes it easy to primary someone if party leaders don't like you

Just when you think our government can’t go any lower.

Real Americans stand with Europe and Ukraine. I for one am proud to build weapons that turn Russians into pink mist and their equipment into scrap. Really hope we can keep getting them over there or the work is pointless.
sadly a lot more Ukrainian pink mist is all but guaranteed now

Its weird that he would swap the EU with its 15% of global GDP for Russia with its 3.8%! Also China absolutely won't be lining up there, China is going to stay neutral of trade.
The idea that he thinks Russia and China are better security allies is hilarious though, both of those countries would love nothing more than to reduce the US to a failed state!
You do not understand Nazi ideology then?
It's about the strong killing the weak.
Trump views Russia and China as fellow predators, ready to eat the world.

Well... not at all with China, they want an Nazi world with ayan Russian people.
Was explaining MAGA Nazis, but you can drop the label for the other two.
Predators have spheres of influence.
  • China will take Asia.
  • Russia will take Europe.
  • US will take North and South America.
It is a world where the strong devour the weak.

Look at the video. That was obviously an attempt at a political mugging. Zelensky was surrounded by people hand picked by Trumps handlers. Bunch of fucking cowards and spineless wankers.
500 billion dollar deal out the window cause Vance had a hurt feels? Who believes that?

Why should I be ashamed? I'm not his daddy, nor am I responsible for his actions, and I never expected I'd agree with everything he does. Grow up.
Not responsible for his actions? When in office? When you voted him in?

............ I mean you cant work with shit not there, so... it is what it is.
