He won the popular vote. Step foot outside an urban area and you’ll see that his popular support isn’t just an illusion.
There’s a floor of around 38% of Americans who are going to hold that line to the death. They’ve lost friends, family, and businesses over their stance already and haven’t budged. This has been going on for ten years now. They’re in it til the end.
I have no idea why. But I’m sure trump’s DOJ will be releasing new guidelines shortly that back up what their boss is saying, sans any evidence.
Sometimes you gotta get creative.
It’s his hand. You can find other angles of it in the same article. It seems to me that the ms-13 edited onto his digits is meant to be a translation of the symbology of his tattoos:
Marijuana leaf = M
Smiley face = S
Cross = 1
Skull = 3
Is that an accurate representation of what his tattoos mean? I have no idea, I’m not an expert on gang symbology. Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t. The presence of a gang tattoo is something that could be submitted as evidence in court - which is a right the accused was never afforded.
What I am sure of, is that trump intentionally presented this information in such a vague manner so as to muddy the waters so he can come back later and claim his claims were misrepresented by the “lying, dishonest media” - which is itself dishonest.
It’s an inkblot test. His detractors will take the claim at face value, and his supporters will dig in and claim we’re stupid for not immediately taking his claims as gospel. He doesn’t care if his claims hold up in court. He only cares about the court of public opinion, and right now, he’s defining that conversation.
Did writing that make you feel better?
By giving kids measles? You’ve lost your mind.
Same, but there’s no way in hell this type of psycho gave it all away. He stashed a couple million somewhere for a rainy day. That’s how these people work.
Dude was worth between 100-300 million at his peak. I don’t buy for a second that he’s broke. It’s probably all hidden in crypto or cocaine stashed under the floorboards.
Congrats to the brave men and women who made that victory possible. A win for labor rights anywhere is a win for workers everywhere.
This is of course after they spent decades consolidating power, wealth and influence with those same IP laws, while snuffing out all smaller competitors.
The speed with which Americas tech CEOs have embraced this new oligarchic system is astounding. It’s almost like that was the plan all along. Almost.
A stalemate where China is locked into its territorial waters and has to rebuild its military while suffering a military blockade, medium and long range bombardment - while America retains freedom of navigation and inter-continental trade?
Doesn’t sound like a stalemate to me. It sounds like a slow death. China is even more reliant on trade than we are and in a hot war, they lose the majority of their trading partners.
What does America lose?
How so? China has a manpower advantage, but they don’t have the capability to project that advantage beyond the mainland/local territorial waters. In what way would America not “come off well”, when the enemy has no credible way of actually getting to us, and no way of supporting it’s economy without international trade? Are they going to island hop from one American defensive position to the next, all the way across the Pacific, while also securing shipping lanes through the Indian ocean for the oil to make that possible?
Sounds like a bad time - for them.
Argentina and Spain are good examples. Peron and Franco organized ratlines for Nazis fleeing the Nuremberg trials.
Yeah what you said - fire him out of a cannon.
The fact he hired a stylist to help him look more like Jack Harlow is hilarious. Bro, you’re 40. Trying to look like Augustus Caesar is finally age appropriate - why are you changing it up NOW?
The taxes will continue until manufacturing improves.
Depends how you phrase the question. If you ask people “do you think the nation of Israel has a right to exist” (are you a Zionist) it probably would be closer to 60%.
Plenty of “Zionists” (in the non-slur sense) are sympathetic to both parties. It’s just that internet discourse on the subject has become so radicalized and binary that it gets lost in the conversation.
“I dont believe AI will ever be more than essentially a parlar trick that fools you into thinking it’s intelligent.”
So in other words, it will achieve human-level intellect.
Ronald Reagan? The actor?
