  • It seems like you are projecting this ‘open contempt’. In an ideal democracy, a politician should state their platform and people should select the best one and vote.
    She was clearly a better candidate with better policy than trump - and if people saw that they should have voted for her. Saying ‘she didn’t pander to me enough’, or ‘wasn’t perfectly aligned with my ideals’ is stupid in the face of trump as the other option.
    Yes, she could have said a bunch of pings - she could have lied and attempted to get votes through a populist approach, and maybe that’s what the democrats need to do, as sad as it is. But that’s only because too many Americans are stupid and won’t vote for the obviously better candidate for … reasons.












  • From cnn:

    Trump chastised reporters for what he cast as unfair treatment when it comes to his health and stamina, adding, “You people are crazy.”

    But over the next hour and a half, Trump struggled to embody the sharpness and vigor he had just laid claim to.

    In fact, he seemed to wage a lengthy and often-losing battle with a midday nap. Even as his Cabinet was assembled to engage in one of his favorite activities – singing the praises of Trump – he repeatedly appeared to doze off.

    It was the kind of scene, in fact, that Trump once upon a time ridiculed as evidence of a president’s lack of stamina and fitness for the job.

  • It’s not a matter of explaining Marxism ffs. It’s that russia is attacking Ukraine. Countries want to join nato to protect themselves from exactly what russia is doing. Russia’s current actions are destabilizing and dangerous for the rest of the world. Other countries will always prioritize their own best interests; but in this case, many countries’ best interests are to support Ukraine against russia so as to weaken russia and teach them not to be aggressive. Russia needs to be forced to change course.
