Feels like news headlines are just competing for maximum cognitive dissonance. I guess that's how you make a profit these days.

Panel 2 and 3 have possible representative relations to said dickbutt, maybe. I dunno.

Sorry dude, I don't believe I can help you. You wander out of that forest of falsehoods and straw men, you let us know.

There's certainly plenty of evidence which could point to kompromat. Even if he's not compromised they clearly have some sort of "arrangement." But, again, that's mind numbingly obvious to anyone with their head not lodged in their ass.

It seems like its easier and more straightforward, and profitable, for the state to just take pay to heed the interests of private industry, as opposed to the complex nature of properly managing and answering to the citizenry as a whole, or even feigning interest in their well-being.

Though it does feel like the founders did get those checks and balances in there (or was that later?) or we'd be more fucked than we already are. And our form of representative republic hasn't always been beyond salvaging. But since the last corporate buyout and with the propaganda proliferated by the internet I feel hard-pressed to challenge it. What will get us out of this one? Education was always key, and the aristocracy was always going to fuck us on that one.

Do they mean the woman he bribed to close an investigation of his scam university? That Pam Bondi?

But his entire political career was purchased by big tech! Is he a malfunctioning robot or something?

Its forbes. A rag I wouldn't wipe my ass with it.

There's no such thing as democracy. We had a representative republic for a while, I think. Then it began to metamorphosize into a corporate oligarchy, now it is completing that transition and then some.

It's not un American. It's inhuman.

Goddamned new york times. It's not a bet! It's an investment, by billionaires, in Trump. Forever soft-pedaling into oligarchic fascism; line must go up.
