It's common sense to support a dictator holding your wife hostage
What's he supposed to do, speak out against the guy holding his wife?
In a democracy, his support for Teump would be questionable. We are no longer in a democracy. Supreme leader takes your family, you thank him and hope for leniency
We are under a dictatorship. Think theough the possible outcomes
Is he continues supporting Trump, he may get an exemption as a reward for his continued support despite a large news story developing
If he speaks out against Trump's policies, he's effectively guaranteed not to get an exemption. Anti-Trump citizens are freqently attacked. They may come up with arbitrary crimes to charge him with, similar to Abrigio Garcia His own citizenship may be in jeopardy, as Trump has stated he may strip citizenship from those he disagrees with
For him personally, it's an obvious choice: Publicly support Trump, as it maximizes your personal gains
Nobody else in his camp can rile up the people like he does.
That's what they said about Kim Il Sung. Few thought Kim Jong Il would be able to take his place. Now we're on our 3rd generation. I think there's enough hate whipped up, they'll follow anyone that lets them take it out on the vulnerable
And they're not big on paperwork.
What a simple, unassuming sentence filled with pure evil. Telegraphing that she is fully in favor of concentration camps and genocide
I do love Tokyo. I had a job all lined up to move there this summer, but it fell through :(
It's not just that. It's also the wealthy and powerful not wanting to interact with the unwashed masses. That's the largest driving force behind US car-centric infrastructure lately
the US is much more divided politically and culturally then Nazi Germany
Is it? Hitler couldn't even win an election before his rise to power. He siezed power after being appointed to a position of power. Trump won the popular vote, if we can believe election results
I think Nazi Germany looked more unified than it was because we focus of the WW2 years, well after Hitler had consolidated power
The cuts are to Medicaid, not Medicare. Although the debt is increasing so much, there may need to be cuts to Medicare in the future to account for the increased interest payments
What would stop the IRS from sending federal agents arresting people on the streets? We've already seen ICE doing it without badges, uniforms, or warrants
This is the problem with a dictatorship. They have too much power. They can do whatever they want
I agree with the sentiment, but it's individuals and businesses paying the federal taxes in NYC. You'd have to somehow get them all to agree to put their personal freedoms at risk by not paying their federal taxes
Donald Trump knows he faces no personal risk by withholding funding, because the SCOTUS has declared him immune. He can break any law with impunity
it can be treated with great success using Chinese medicine.
lol
Half the candidates is 25-30. It would need to be at least $10 per drink for that profit number, and that's only if he's getting free electricity and drinks
