    Friedrich Merz sounds like the man we NEED right now. Hope those words are put into actions!

    P.S. Germany is split between Western Germany and Eastern Germany in those elections. Estern Germany voted for the neoNazi party. It seems the ex communist states are most  susceptible to Russian=neoNazi propaganda.

    Good News. Canada kicked US' butt and won the 4 nations cup. Go Canada! The U.S. guys, especially that Tkachuk guys, were so icredibly arrogant, they deserved to lose.

    BTW, watching reports about the Canada / US situation and why the Canadians are pissed, they (the reporters) always talk about the tariffs. But from what I understand, it is not about the tariffs in the first place, it is about Canada supposed to be the 51st state. It is basically the same situation in Europe. Nobody really cares about tariffs here. It is the Greenland situation, it is telling European countries what our freedoms have to look like, it is the love fest with the AfD. It is the sheer arrogance, the lack of decency that makes the whole nonsense coming from the US even worse. 

    It’s basically capitulating at even trying to look like a democratic state, let alone leading the democracies. Cosing up with Putin, rewriting history, acting like 100 years in the development of the world could simply be erased. Acting like a bully

    Still I saw a poll on CNN where they said that presently the Republicans are 2 percent more than the Democrats in USA. The Democrats have been more till now. This means more independents have registered as Republicans and the new electorate (youngsters) are more Republican than Dems. And this while he is gutting the federal government and US institutions, selling Europe to Putin and threatening to move out 2 million people out of their land. I really cant grasp this. Oh, and planes are falling daily.

    Israel, Hamas, Iran, etc.

    I see that USA have aided Israel like it has since the 40ties. Was it directly involved into the "military operation" in Gaza? It wasn't. Now Trump would send troops to Gaza and resettle the Palestinians from Gaza and take their land to govern it (and give it to Israel eventually). I don't see the equivalence.

    If anything your comment @elijah just goes to show you how out of touch democrats are coming off. Maybe try reaching out to a Muslim in Detroit and asking their opinion versus just making assumptions :shrug: 

    Well, sorry but USA was not DIRECTLY involved into that genocide. Could Biden have done more to prevent it? Sure! But was USA itself trowing bombs on Gaza? No. Now USA would directly own Gaza and resettle its population into Egypt and Jordan. Direct involvement. It's one thing to stand by watching an atrocity, it's another to actually do the atrocity. Or I am missing something???

    Wouldn't be the perfect time to found something like a "Social Democratic Party of America"? I mean the money to get this off the ground could come from rich people that are actually not sociopaths. I suppose there are several members of the Democrats willing to switch? 

    The two party system seems ingrained into USA psyche. Not gonna happen. Now that MAGA has taken over the Republicans, the relatively sane one (even preTrump) are only the Democrats. But with that MAGA propaganda in full swing, I don't know if Dems would win in 2026/2028.

    I don't think it's Trump the world needs to be concerned about: its the unelected billionaires that are going to tamper with and redesign the American government as they see fit that is a huge worry. 

    Its Trump who has allowed the power grab of the billionaires. He is worrisome: he will weaken USA even more, the Western alliance would hopefully survive without USA, he will sell out Ukraine which is a huge blow to Europe... He is ALLOWING the dismantling of the US government. FBI, USAID, Education agency and other agencies would probably cease to exist or wouldn't exist in their current form. USA would be weaken immensely at the end of his term.

    I think we need to all take a deep breath and let the dust settle from the chaos of the executive orders to settle. 

    There’s going to be a wave of lawsuits and challenges that come out of that (example). Then the republicans will get to work to writing new laws and trying to update existing laws and then then that’s when we’ll see just how unified and evil they actually are (or are not) and whether or not we should be worried. I still think they’re a damn mess, they’re shit at writing legislation they all agree on and they’re just going to end up fighting internally, getting nothing done and failing these next two years. 
     

    this is me, the biggest negative Nancy being positive lol 

    Hope you are right. That's internally though. This moron has already started a trade war with Canada! Fucking Canada. I really hope Canada, UK, EU, AUS, maybe Japan, unite and put huge tariffs on his ass. What an imbecile.
