2024 US Election
MistaT recognize they don't need to do anything in hungry financially and as you said I don't mean a country like Poland. It's the Baltics I think he would be looking to test and I don't think it's as clear today what would happen in reality. Putin has operated on he takes these actions knowing the west is sluggish and often takes time to respond which then makes it hard to actually do anything.

the next financial crisis is gonna be called the Great Rugpull. His mates and him are already in of course, they will then buy the crypto with borrowed money and then dump. Easy money for them.

meanwhile, at a democrats consultancy retreat
basically, run kamalas campaign again but with a white guy at the top of the ticket. 'move away from the dominance of small donors' is such a huge tell. trashbag party that repeatedly learns all the wrong lessons. they deserve to keep losing.
if there's even functional elections in 26/28 and the democrats somehow Mr magoo themselves back into power, it will snap right back to the populists and rabble-rousers in short order.
Gazza M If the Democrats went looking for the votes of two in three citizens who heard about the UnitedHealthcare assassin and thought "Yeah I get why you'd do that", they'd be in better shape.
It's not enough to wait for Trump to get sent packing, the next candidate to oppose the phalanx of fascist meltdown needs a plan, a mandate and a battalion of picks to replace the Hegseths and Bonginos going into office now.
Speaking of not having a mandate, Starmer recording nett negative approval, and a majority of UK voters thinking Labour is incompetent just six months after their victory, tells you how that goes.
Fuck this guy and his retarded tariffs.
Qwiss I hear what you’re saying. I just don’t think Americans think of concepts of equity the way we might. All this stuff runs counter to the American dream. It’s not coincidental that the US should be the place that generates so many billionaires - and the same people who can’t afford medical services will openly say don’t tax the billionaires more because they’ve earned it. You have to break a lot of beliefs of what it means to be American for a Bernie type to garner enough votes to win
Wish someone would just shoot this dangerous blowhard down.
Burnwinter meanwhile, none of them have of course mention what Putin wants.
I've been an anti-imperialist since I was a little university Marxist in the late 1990s. Feels bizarre to me that I go on Twitter and it's full of Silicon Valley MAGA fascists saying how unfair it is the United States pays for 70% of NATO.
I want the war in Ukraine to end as soon as possible, but backing Ukraine into a very difficult spot and giving Russia a freer hand in negotiations won't help with that.
I've got plenty of sympathy for Ukrainians who've been walked into a Russian massacre by NATO nations and are now having the rug pulled.
Burnwinter a lot of people predicted Ukraine would end up like Afghanistan and here we are.
Wouldn't be surprised if Zelensky is replaced soon.

Come on now you're better than that.

Americans are gonna get a lucrative Mineral deal and they've crippled the Russians while they are at it.
Kel Varnsen Fuck this guy and his retarded tariffs.
I wonder how long he can keep up on tariffs, the economy will take a turn for the worst and public opinion will start to shift.
Kel Varnsen Wouldn't be surprised if Zelensky is replaced soon.
I still wonder what is up with him, surely he must know that Trump is the only person who can stop this war and he needs to suck up to him. It is shit deal for him and Ukraine but he has run out of road here, there is no other way. The Americans have run out of patience here, he is gonna end up getting shafted even more now.
Pepe LeFrits He may have come put well in a PR sense but his meeting was a total failure, given the entire purpose of it was to try to persuade Trump to adopt a more moderate position on Ukraine.
I don't think Ukraine was the only thing on his agenda, he went there to suck up, give Trump a royal invitation and try to avoid the UK being hammered with tariffs. He came out it with talk of a potential free trade deal so I think he has done alright. Even now he is kind of acting like a bridge between Ukraine and the Americans, trying to make sure that deal doesn't collapse, he was very wise not to join in with other Europeans and start tweeting after that Zelensky meeting. The way the European nations are starting tweeting together did seem very suspicious to me....
