You’ve got a lot to learn about the world’s perception of the US and more importantly Americans

Nope, that would mean you support genocide. Sorry.

can we please post our correct geopolitical positions without using ableist slurs

We can try, but there are A LOT of really dumb people here

Felon-title is trumping (no pun indented, maybe a little) the President-title.

What can we (the rest of the world) expect? The worst, as we all have a stake here, unfortunately.

They really only like him because he’s normalizing being publicly racist. None of his followers can list any of his “accomplishments” when he was president.

Narrator: They were retarded.

If Reagan’s teleprompter had told him to trust Russians, he would have trusted Russians. This was a guy who cut a deal with Iran - the country holding a bunch of US citizens hostage - to not release those hostages until after his inauguration.

Reagan is the reason why there’s such a huge wealth gap and practically no more middle class. Fuck him.

Via an EM accelerated sled. No parachute or guidance systems though - just an 80 year old seatbelt. Thoughts and prayers though.

There is no chance whatsoever that he supports the war on Palestine more than Biden does, so I’m not sure what this comment is trying to say.

Trump also supports Putin and totally wasn’t getting ready for Trump Tower Moscow if he lost the election..

Don’t forget he was also impeached for illegally upholding military funding for Ulkraine prior to Russia’s invasion, after failing to have Zelenskyy falsely implicate Biden.

In the 1960s black people were much more actively discriminated against on a systemic level, practically prevented from voting in many of the states in the southern United States. The president at the time was the Democrat Lyndon B. Johnson, and was facing the much more racist Republican challenger Barry Goldwater.

While the black vote was suppressed in the south, there was a significant voting block in the north of black people and their allies whose main issue was civil rights. Civil rights leaders, including Martin Luther King, met several times with LBJ, who coaxed them to tone down the direct action protests and criticism until after the election, as he claimed to we willing to negotiate with them once the threat to his power was diminished.

Instead, civil rights protests increased. The leaders, probably correctly, determined that once the election was over, they would have less leverage. Even though losing the election meant having an enemy in the white house, having a ‘friend’ who continued to delay essential concessions did not further their cause. People were actively being murdered by the ‘Jim Crow’ apartheid regime, and delays and half-measures were not sufficient.

Thanks to the pressure of millions of people engaged in direct action and open criticism of the president, the Civil Rights Act was passed before the 1964 election. LBJ won by a landslide due to the popularity of the legislation, but suffered the severe political consequences Democrats were trying to avoid through their strategy of placation and delay. The 1964 election was the last where Democrats got the majority of the white vote, and electing politicians in the southern states became much more difficult for their party.

Palestinian Americans and their allies now face a similar situation. Democrats will continue to ignore the genocide in Gaza unless there are real political consequences to their actions. While Donald Trump would be a significantly worse candidate, the logic of a two-party system requires that they be willing to risk a worse political situation if they are to hold any political power at all.

Civil rights leaders like Martin Luther King are regarded as heroes today, but at the time, they were reviled by both Democrats and Republicans as a force of chaos that acted out of ignorance of the political system. If LBJ had lost the election to Goldwater, perhaps their legacy would be considered differently. But it would not change the fact that the cause they were fighting for was just, and they were able to wield political power in a system that was designed to marginalize them.

Convicted Felon Fucking Demented Rapist Idiot.

Ftfy

It would be Canada.

“And this is what he said. He said, ‘Well, we don’t rely on American banks. We have all the funding we need out of Russia.’ I said, ‘Really?’ And he said, ‘Oh, yeah. We’ve got some guys that really, really love golf, and they’re really invested in our programs. We just go there all the time.’”

Eric is denying now that he ever said that.

The entire republican party is, it’s not just trump.

Don’t forget about the massive nuclear arsenal the US has

Nah. They’ve always been dumber than dogshit. They’re just doing what their daddy tells them to do, as ever. Reagan could have told them to be gay and they’d scramble to smoke dicks.
