Bullying, berating Trump shows his worst self in Zelenskyy ambush

People should have the right to vote outside the two party system without a spoiler effect. There are more representative electoral systems that can accomplish this. Are you working to pass electoral reform in your state so those that are unrepresented can participate in democracy?
"Why are women so obsessed with suffrage" - you if you lived during the early 20th century

First Past The Post voting (What most states use now)
Videos on alternative electoral systems we can try out.

yeah but trump has his little nose in the ground. if he secures rights to mining in Ukraine, he can farm that out as deals and favors. trump is transactional.

It was like watching a scene from an episode of a reality TV show from the early 2000s.
That's not a coincidence.

It's been a while since I've gone through a whole day being proud of my US citizenship. Today was one of the most shameful.
-
Hey, don't disrespect the cameramen!
-
(something something invasions of North America, invasion of Mexico, Occupation of the Philippines, ... )
-
"Peace deal" means surrender now, don't join NATO, and get invaded again in a few years.
TBH idk how Zelenskyy thought things would go any differently.
-
Honestly. I've never been more ashamed. I wish I could help end this shit, ya know?

Why would any nation that does not have nukes not start making nukes right now?
The USA has shown over and over, it's the only thing we take seriously. We don't give a fuck until you have nukes. We don't care about treaties, alliances, deals. We only care if you can start the nuke wars. Anything else is just "how can we take advantage of you?"
Also .. World, I understand you're not reading this, but for the three of ya that do, boycott us. Tariff the shit out of us. You got this, and thanks for all the fish.

What you say feels right, and it is breaking my heart

Don't forget the ungodly amount of bots out there.

Wrote up a summary months ago (with reputable sources!) about this stuff, and was permabanned from Lemmy news and politics for it.
Idk man, you can tell people stuff, but it’s so hard for them to access what’s real right now. There’s a concerted online effort to suppress factual info.
-
Huh, yeah that's surprising. I guess people are dicks all over the world.

thanks!

As an American,

The trouble is that this was probably intentional, you can see the vp is literally an attack dog in this case, but I still think it's likely that if zelensky stroked trumps ego it wouldn't have ended that way. It's like trump is pro Russia but also narcissistic and they are sometimes at odds.

So word is that the more the US mistreats Z, the more the European people like him, and want to support him. So this was probably a great outcome fir them. The deal offered was very one sided. Had Z just not taken it, people would blame him. But now, everyone knows who to blame.

They love him, because their oligarchs and their puppets have regularly praised him on Russian state TV since 2016.
