It might actually make sense. Defrauding an election in a way that isn't too blatantly obvious takes preparation in advance.
I.e. you have actually good and valid internal polling data and you prepare the fake votes necessary in advance to get you over the finish line.
Last minute swings could totally throw you off and then you have to scramble and do obvious bullshit like what happened in 2020
The world's financial system is a foundation of baseless make believe fake and gay bullshit that will sink under its own weight and drown just about everyone.
And it might not be tomorrow or next week, but the worry about stocks is like worrying about stepping on dog poop with a shit tsunami on the horizon.
I'm not a legal scholar, but the text says you can't be elected more than twice. Doesn't say you can't be president more than twice.
If you're elected as vice president and then become president, you're not technically breaking the text of the amendment
Why not? It'd be great, actually. Think how pissed off Hillary will be if Heels-Up Harris is the first.
There can only be one the first female president, and it won't be Hillary. I would almost vote for Kamala to see it happen
Like the roughly 50% of the rest of the country. Which is why they had another civil war. Like maybe the 10th one, I don't know. They're always having civil wars over East vs West in that region.
Ukraine in its current -- largest country wholly in Europe -- form is fake and gay and cannot exist as a country. Needs to belong to someone else or be split into about 1/3 pieces of the current size to stay congruent.
Seems like the problem is that the USA wants to be the owner, for whatever fucking reason. I mean I get the natural resource wealth in metals, like Germany/Ausrtia has wanted that since forever, but really, really not worth it.
If you have insight, you should know that the (US-EU sponsored) people who came to power after the coup in 2014 never had a chance in hell at grabbing actual power in a free and democratic fashion. This is 100% obvious from just the voting data. The facts are that Ukraine was always deeply divided and no one side could ever grab complete power and nothing ever got done because half the country spent time bickering with the other half while a bunch of oligarchs robbed everyone blind behind the scenes.
And this isn't a new thing. You can read what the first Ukrainian nationalists wrote like 150 years ago and their message was clear: we need a federated government because trying live together on this territory without massive local autonomy is just not going to work. But no one actually wanted that because it would mean giving up wealth and power to locals in each region.
This is the reason for the civil war. The people's representation was stolen by armed thugs taking power, and the armed thugs from the other camp had something to say about it. A story literally centuries old in that region. Either it is controlled by an outside central power or it falls apart into civil war where some warlord or other tries to grab the whole of it and force everyone to live by his standards.
Calling this whole situation a "free country" is completely disingenuous. It's a failed state where half the population couldn't bear to live with the other half until one side decided they had enough money and arms from outside governments to force the other side into submission.
More more accurately stated:
- What if Russia spent a decade putting military bases on Cuba and teaching them to fight America and then sponsored and pushed through a coup to put a rabidly psycho anti-American communist into power and then upped the ante by increasing funding with more and more weapons and then America invaded Cuba to put the obvious and evident military threat out of commission and Russia spent hundreds of billions of dollars in equipment keeping the Cuban army going for years on life support with the goal of killing as many Americans as possible and then finally provided long-range missiles and Cuba launched a Russian-supplied missile into Florida with the help of reconnaissance from Russian aircraft?
I'm kinda afraid the US government doesn't actually have a stick big enough to do what it really wants, meaning they'd have to pull out the big guns.
And Russia has more of those (unlike during the Cold War where they had a smaller arsenal most of the time) and newer better ICBMs.
So really the world is hanging on how much patience Putin has, and he is allegedly not a very nice man. The media paints him as an insane maniac, in fact.
They aren't really irrelevant though.
If you flash a fat wad of hundred dollar bills in a ghetto and get mugged and killed, murder is murder and you wouldn't deserve it on a moral level. But it would be a logical consequence of your stupid behavior.
Life isn't fair, our environment is becoming more dangerous than it was.
This whole thing is like buying a money printer and then using it as a public outhouse just to spite the guy who wouldn't listen to his dipshit coffee girl/groupie's ideas.
And according to reports, it wasn't even good coffee.
Maybe the head was good, I don't know.
There is no capitalism. It's a fake and gay utopian idea, like any other ism.
Controlling markets, finances, trade and access to them is power. No system of government is going to just voluntarily give up that power. And if it is forced, someone else will just fill the power void (i.e. the Fed) and become master market puppeteer instead of the government.
All economies are planned economies. The only real difference is the number of groups of people (and how easy it is to join these groups) doing the planning to become filthy rich of the backs of the schmucks who aren't doing the planning.
So if your model of the world is wishing for fake and gay utopian ideas to come to life, it's a retarded model. Model the world as it is, not as you want to to be. Support a system of economic meddling planning that will plan to benefit yourself instead of wishing for imaginary bullshit.
It needs to be enlarged to the size the Founding Fathers intended. Your representative needs to represent YOU. He needs to be a bloke you can go and see, talk to and punch in the face if needed.
You cannot have 1 person represent 1 million people. That's just stupid bullshit that will NEVER work because it will always be a political class (i.e. what the Senate was originally)
Congress needs to be at least about 6700 people.
