If there is one single thing that will doom this government, it is trying to ban porn.
Weird, but true.
Rinse and repeat every 100 days.
Of course, spelling was never my strong suit.
I do appreciate being corrected. Thank you...
China will definitely suffer, but it also doesn't care. Public opinion supporting its actions are not a priority in China. Trump is starting to feel the bite his stupidity has taken him. Not sure if he understands completely, but he's getting an idea that he'll wear the blame. Not from the Maga, but from everyone else.
And you underestimate the disadvantage of an uninformed and disinterested electorate, a politically chosen Supreme Court and a political system co-opted to serve corporate interests.
Only if you take what I said very literally. The Chinese and the Russians are concluding, I'm sure you would agree.
I'm not sure your allegory is very apt.
Difficult to argue against, except America is doing this too us as well, and we don't get a vote.
That's true. The US has been interfering in other country's domestic affairs for decades. Organising the odd coup, overthrowing elected leaders. Suddenly people are shocked to learn that it can work both ways.
A country with strong democratic institutions are pretty resilient to these tactics. You might not trust the politicians, but you trust the officials, the military and the courts.
It seems that the US has dismantled trust in these institutions for a long time. It has let corporations run the show. So Russia and China have an easier task.
I don't see anybody stopping you from saying anything you want to say, so stop playing the victim.
Trump is a uniquely American problem. You guys either elected him, or didn't care enough to vote. Shit, his popularity is still almost 50% now even after he destroyed the economy.
Your argument is that the American people are so stupid that they were manipulated by foreign actors (TWICE) into electing an obvious fuckwit.
Well, ok, if you insist,

Pity that all those feel-good totals don't reflect the last vote for President.
When it doesn't matter people turn out. Go figure....
