i half expect trump to play 10D chess and posthumously appoint jeffrey epstein to cabinet. you know, to give the pedophiles a false sense of security.

You joke but the principle of 'things are fucked, if only we could get the monarch's ear' is quite important historically.
He's the only politician left.
Politics is not about policy wonkery or party loyalty. That's for weirdoes and people in denial. Politics is about passion. It's about wether you'd conceivably sit down with some govnah for a few drinks. It's about wether you trust this person to be your elected monarch. Once you do, you can also trust them to have done their best in your name.
That's the game. Only the vast majority of politicians play towards the lords, whereas people like Bernie and Trump build trust towards the commons. The Dems and the Republicans both have donor classes they are held to, in fact its the exact same class. But the Dems being the party of the upper 10% cannot even pretend to like the commons. The Republicans otoh also hate their base, but Trump is capable of bringing a muslim to the podium to pretend he likes Palestine. Kamala and the Dem operatives wouldn't even hide their disgust.
Since Bernie was disciplined into irrelevance that means Trump is the only politician left in the US.
As expected, the transphobic Moon of Alabama is the first 'right wing but anti war' website to make the beautiful argument that just because Trump is gonna appoint even bigger warmongerers and neocons than last time, that doesn't mean he'll listen to them. Looking forward to even more copium along the way.
all elon has to do is appoint employees as proxies/trustees. same thing with trump
you terminally online leftists don't understand democracy. kamala ran on a 'save democracy platform'. she lost. therefore the only democratic action the party can take is to do what the people want and support president biden in his bid to implement trump's agenda.
its also a harder argument to make. we all know the chinese communist party is responsive to people's concerns, that they 'have constituents'.
and we are also not naive enough to think that its a monolithic hivemind, that there's no politicking or factioneering within it.
if we are to say that the incumbents were rewarded in china's national government, we have to make a much more complicated analysis than just pointing to mexico and saying - yo, this government keeps getting rewarded like they actually are more progressive than FDR.
i thought that ukrainian ultras turning against europe and doing terrorism there was a bit of a silly, far fetched scenario but trump's second? dumbest son seems be manifesting this shit before our eyes. this isn't salting the wound its pure acid
and this is what i call proper journalism
you could always just rephrase it as a news headline
a real friend of epstein would never recognize that he did something wrong. no pardons for his ghost
