      If NK can have a necrocracy, he can run a senilocracy -especially since he’s basically just a figurehead for oligarchs and fascists anyway that repeats whatever the most recent person told him.

      Best I can do is AOC, hardened by years of civil war, made merciless by witnessing innumerable horrors and the loss of loved ones.

      That or the cyborg Burn-hard Sandblaster

    In his view “a lot of people” are the few that hover around him looking for scraps like so many Renfields

      Its incredible when he talks about law and order when the guy is a career conman and a criminal. If he wasn’t born into relative wealth, he would have been a small time conman and actually gone to prison for fraud or killed by someone for tricking them.

      I agree they should relase them (they never will) but this is not (just) a distraction from that. This is announcing what he is planning on doing in the future.

      We would be wise to take this seriously and be vigilant.

        Everyone should take all of his threats (aka campaign promises) very seriously.

        Always.

        Also, Donald Trump is in the Epstein files.

    But a lot more of other people are saying things that would get the secret service asking them pointed questions if it got out.

    Trump is the furthest thing from “benevolent”. I do agree that a benevolent dictator would set us on the right path again. Until then it’s money, power, and hate that seem to be the driving force in the world, both today and in the past. The showiest thing that american power does is to change hats from time to time when an election is held.

      Who leads shouldnt be a competition every 4 years. I’m more inclined to take Chinas lead on this one.

        China has elections though, the average term length for president is like 5 years, they’re just unlikely to replace a leader if things are going well and the leader is perceived as responsive.

        If they reelected Hu Jintao while corruption festered and capitalism seemed to escape its cage, how many of the national congress would have been seen the next one?

            Communist countries tend to be more democratic than capitalist countries, but even if every member of the party above the lowest level has to be elected both within the party and in a general election, it can be questionable how much the resulting government institutions actually represent the people.

            If you want an example of such a system working well or at least less openly corrupt and distainful of the average person, ask some Cubans (not gusanos) about their experiences with representation. If you want an example where the average person feels pretty disconnected from the party and like their voice is completely drowned out by moneyed interests and nepotism, talk to some Vietnamese.

    A lot of people are saying that trump had an intimate relationship with a sexual predator that trafficked children and was involved in the same or similar pedophilic behavior. A lot of people are saying this.

    For every N persons he can lie about saying this, I have seen N+1 persons saying they’d like him to get the hamberder from heaven.
