Trump floats idea of three-term presidency at NRA convention (www.theguardian.com)

Donald Trump flirted with the idea of being president for three terms – a clear violation of the US constitution – during a bombastic speech for the National Rifle Association in which he vowed to reverse gun safety measures green-lighted during the Biden administration....

brain_in_a_box,

I can’t tell if you’re one or those people who completely memory holed that he already had a term, or if you’re making a joke that we’re already doomed (the latter one is true, imo)

brain_in_a_box,

Doesn’t he know that that word only applies to foreign nations.

brain_in_a_box,

I know that the overton window has moved a long way to the right since then, but FDR was a long fucking way from being a socialist; a social democrat at best, but probably more accurate to say he was just what a capitalist was before the neoliberal turn.

brain_in_a_box,

Noted dictator, FDR.

brain_in_a_box,

So FDR was a dictator?

brain_in_a_box,

So FDR was a dictator?

brain_in_a_box,

Sorry, I should have said foreign, non-white nations.

brain_in_a_box,

There are liberals literally in this comment section doing it.

brain_in_a_box,

Liberals are literally the ones committing this genocide (not a “war”, as liberals are trying to frame it).

Zelensky: 'Our partners fear that Russia will lose this war' (kyivindependent.com)

President Volodymyr Zelensky believes that Ukraine’s partners “are afraid of Russia losing the war” and would like Kyiv “to win in such a way that Russia does not lose,” Zelensky said in a meeting with journalists attended by the Kyiv Independent....

brain_in_a_box,

Expensive for who?

brain_in_a_box,

Could you give an answer that doesn’t sound like it’s coming from a child?

brain_in_a_box,

Ah, yes, the country with the most people incarcerated both per capita and in absolute terms, that is currently genocideing the 2 million people its vassal has in a massive concentration camp, is part of the “free”.

brain_in_a_box,

which have liberty and democracy engraved to their core.

See? This is what I mean: this is how a child sees the world.

Also, please keep it civil

Sorry, but I consider ultra-nationalist white supremacism to be profoundly uncivil.

brain_in_a_box,

Only a child would think it was ever a “free country”.

brain_in_a_box,

Oh, it “self identifies” does it? And you think all the countries you don’t count as ‘free countries’ self identify as ‘not free’?

Like I said, that’s literally how a child sees the world.

But it’s a lot freer than China or Russia or many others.

Completely vibes based statement; America dwarfs both China and Russia in terms of imprisoned people, not to mention the whole “2 million person extermination camp” thing. Mention it again, I mean, as you already ignored it the first time I mentioned it.

brain_in_a_box,

No, not at all. I stand by what I said, and everything I said was true. I’ve never felt the need not to be insulting to ultra-nationalist white supremacists.

brain_in_a_box,

but voting and the rule of law still mostly work. Unlike countries like China and Russia.

See what I mean? This is the sort of thing a child believes.

brain_in_a_box,

Ok child

brain_in_a_box,

Nonsense; there was zero chance that the West would be willing to work in good faith with China when China grew economically and politically powerful enough to actually rival the West.

brain_in_a_box,

This reads like peak Western cope.

brain_in_a_box,

Gee, I wonder why.

brain_in_a_box,

Any country the US sets up a pier near, will have no choice but to deal with the local government. In no universe, will that not be the case. If not, that pier is Israeli territory!

Mmm yes, as we all know, the USA just can’t do anything in the Middle East without the approval of the local government, just ask Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen.

Also pretty fucking interesting that you suddenly consider Gaza to be “Israeli territory”. So the people living there are Israeli citizens then?

brain_in_a_box,

It really shows how cynical liberals are that, in the have of a genuine mass slaughter of Muslims being undertaken by their own camp, they’re still trying to force their “Uyghur genocide” narrative to stick, even though every serious observer realized it was nonsense years ago.

brain_in_a_box,

The USA and Israel.

brain_in_a_box,

Are there any nations causing more death and misery than Israel at the moment?
