I’m highly doubtful that any of this can actually be proven. I don’t doubt it for one minute, but I really doubt there’s any way to actually prove this. Unless some ‘smoking gun’ documents or other surveillance can be produced (good luck).
You can’t explain your work. Why the fuck should they?
It’s really not all that difficult to understand. Trump inflamed their prejudices and sense of entitlement and used that to get their votes. Politicians have been doing this forever. Are you poor? Well, it’s because the brown people are taking all the jobs. Are your groceries costing too much? Well, it’s because of all those poor people sponging off the government - that’s driving up all the costs. Oh, and by the way, god wants you to hate all those LGBTQ+ people, too.
When it comes to Trump, it’s important to remember that there is no sleazy tactic he won’t try. He lives and thrives on lies.
It had the effect it was intended to have.
Sure, you have a right to Free Speech - you can say whatever you like. I also have the right to not do business with you, to not hire you, to remember your face and call you out on the street and let eeeeeeveryone in my neighborhood know who you are and what you do, and to not allow you to use my online services.
The exact same scenario played out with Steve Bannon, and Trump fired him. I’m don’t see Elon faring much better.
LOL…this is glorious! Elon’s firing to commence in T minus 10…9…8…
In essence, Capitalism has outpaced, co-opted and overshadowed Democracy. If only someone had predicted this very thing, we could have prevented it from happening…
This isn’t really all that hard to understand. Just follow the money. That’s all you have to do.
If the People put him there, the People can remove him. It’s just a question of will.
Radagast was specifically tied to birds and beasts, not trees and forests.
I was with you until you recommended using Brave. I’ll get my privacy advice elsewhere, thank you.
To all my Canadian and Mexican brothers and sisters - As an American, I sincerely apologize for the lunacy of my government. Please understand that this trade war is NOT the will of the American people, but rather that of the oligarchs who have co-opted our government. We are so sorry. Thank you.
"“The People’s History of the United States” by Howard Zinn is excellent, and literally changed my life.
Like this even matters anymore. They’ve already demonstrated that Trump can do whatever the fuck he wants with no repercussions. The deck is stacked in his favor, and no matter what that report contains, no one is going to do shit about it. This is where we are, now.
Let this be glaring proof to anyone who would otherwise deny it: Our democracy is broken and no longer functions for the benefit of the People. This is why revolutions happen. This is why we cannot trust our own government any longer. I’m officially done. Electoral politics has proven to be a gigantic joke, and I’m not playing anymore.
Trump doesn’t have anywhere near the power he thinks he has. This is all just bluster like 90% of everything else that comes out of his mouth.
