Haven’t we already been here? He’s even been judged guilty before. It’s close to being true what he said about shooting someone and getting away with ...
If people cared about this, they would now drag Trump out of the White House into the Hague court. As always, we can’t really blame the bad people doi...
He’s right in that the populist right is a result of failures of the left. I think the left has been wrapped in a “good guy” mantra, always positionin...
When should society worry? After it's been installed or before it is installed or before even the risk of it? I would argue that there shouldn't even ...
Yeah, I mentioned earlier that the real pain will come after the next quarter. Then people will feel it and the companies earnings will show it. Basic...
How? I'm seeing daily stuff everywhere on how he oversteps all over the place, but nothing is happening. How many months of this before the riots begi...
Are you ignoring that all nations are reshaping their trades right at this moment? And the fact that the economical consequences will not be seen or f...
Testing what? If Trump can follow normal practice of power under the constitution of the US, or if the guardrails of US democracy actually works? If T...
Neither does a real written paper, it's basically just carbon atoms in different constellations. So is the entire universe. What we perceive as releva...
Nobel Peace Prize winner Maria Ressa, in Stockholm today, draws parallels to Rodrigo Duterte and warns about how the slide into authoritarianism can h...
Which is probably why Trump uses "emergency laws" for stuff that's not in emergency. He essentially invents some emergency out of thin air and then do...
First, how can we know that Trump didn't work to oppose all of that behind the scenes? Second, it still shows the guardrails aren't working. If he con...
That returns to my questions... what should the public do about it. Or rather, how far will the US let Trump go before doing something? If he's aiming...
I know, but his inner circle are a bunch of conspiracy theorists and idiots like Kennedy. What normal people think about Miran's plan is not relevant ...
Has anyone considered that all of this is Stephen Miran's plan to devalue the dollar? His Mar-a-Lago accord spells out both increased tariffs and thre...
Even if the tariffs won't increase more after the 90 days, I'm beginning to wonder what would happen if the EU goes in the other direction and lowers ...
Definitely, he's no better than any other believer who ignores actual research and knowledge. It's the main reason I am opposed all religions (though ...
As long as his followers suffer economically, but the economy doesn't crash, that's all good. The only way to get rid of him in a normal democracy is ...
The surge was because of the 90-day pause in tariffs. I think he realized he fucked up, and that his advisor is even more stupid than he is. Maybe som...
They still believe he will back down. However, Trump isn't operating on logic or for the nation, he only cares about himself. He is like Putin in this...
Trump has also dusted off the coal burning industry by using emergency laws... If a president uses emergency laws while there's no active emergency, i...
It doesn't have to be the main trading partner to have a significant impact on products and goods sold in the US. The amount of "less" is too much. Mo...
Are you counting the entire production loop of how modern products are made? Is that just products themselves going into the nation to be sold to cust...
I wouldn't be surprised if all of this escalate to the point protests form riots. When people start to actually feel the pain, companies go out of bus...
Trumpsters can be stupid at the same time as Democrats failing to give a better alternative. What I see a failure of in most people discussing this su...
I don't see how the left is punished here. If anything it seems like they're winning by Trump failing his own followers. They are the ones who would b...
They had the Lincoln project. There's options for Republicans who want a 12-step program away from asslicking stupidity. They don't have to go Democra...
1,04 What's the prize? On the other hand, it can also be telling of how many times I've been baited to respond. I've of late been better at just leavi...
But it's not this clear cut. There's too much fiction going on on both the side of pro-US and those against US. Either the US is the enemy or the savi...
I've been advocating for improving society and politics past democracy for years now. What we see here is the perfect example of why I think represent...
It doesn't sound like Trump understands how tariffs work.... He's saying that inflation is gone and that these tariffs will get nations who treated th...
Turmp is so fucking stupid and his followers even more so. That an entire world will suffer like this because the US "democracy" didn't think about ha...
Because he breaks it, innocents have been sent there. What the MAGA zealots think or not is irrelevant. Neonazis also like when laws are broken for so...
Yes, but I'm wondering what the people are willing to do if he starts to control the departments of government to the extent that he gains essentially...
What I mean is, why aren’t anyone doing something when he breaks constitutional laws and regulations? Why aren’t anyone opposing and rallying the rema...
If so, then why don't people do anything about it? Why is everyone just accepting that all of this is going on? That Trump does what he does is nothin...
A) I don't think the world economy tanks other than in the short term. But if the world retaliate tariffs against the US, then it doesn't look good fo...
I think that's a good encouragement Benkei. I've been drawn away from the forum due to a rise in low quality and occasionally being baited into engagi...
The tariffs against China are warranted though. They basically hide slave labor and has the government involved in all companies, making security in o...
The best thing for EU would be to actually not retaliate with tariffs and instead build new free trade routes. Like, towards Canada and like has been ...
It's popcorn time for anyone who likes to witness Trump supporters looking confused about their standards of living not becoming what they fantasized ...
Trump is entertaining the idea of seriously sitting a third term. While unrealistic to happen, if no one opposes his abuse of power, it could. If he t...
We had a rise in neo-nazis in the 80s and 90s as well. Right now it's being catalyzed by social media, which is a catalyst for everything. I usually l...
So now Trump is demanding that anything "woke" should be removed from The Smithsonian museums. And historians are pointing out that the specifics of i...
The reason is that I don't find the questions being asked on the level of rational discourse that is apt for this time in history, or morally overall....
