European leaders throw support behind Zelenskyy after heated Trump meeting
-
European leaders should have a summit in the oval office to sign an agreement to protect Ukraine. Each leader should bring their own ceremonial pen with which to sign the agreement. The summit should be on 15th March.
What is SS gonna do, shoot all the leaders of western europe?

Hungary is definitely not going to be part of NATO2

You have to really drink the kool-aid to believe that shit. If the weapons they allowed us to keep were a threat to anything other than soft targets and school children they wouldn't let us keep them

Lots of other countries have democracy like the us but it's the huge difference between your political parties as well as social media making the rift bigger each election cycle. I think once you guys get rid of the social media, you guys can come back.
-
The military is also under direct attack.
The Chairman Of The Joint Chiefs is being replaced by a Lieutenant General that, according to Trump, got the job through being a sycophant who wore a MAGA hat with his uniform.
There's a lot of troops under leaders that will find that abhorrent.

The UK expelled a disastrous Prime Minister in 50 days in 2022. Trump is doing fundamental damage to your country far worse than Truss did and you're telling me the 70% of the American people are powerless until the next election and just have to watch it happen on TV? It's pathetic.
Your representation is failing to do their constitutional duty. The voice of 70% of the people can't be ignored if it's united. That's why you all need to come together in real life and not inside social media. Start campaigning. Start protesting. Start being angry.

If you find it, please mention/DM me.

Yes, in terms of any official political mechanisms to remove him. Its not pathetic, it's how our constitution works! He would need to be betrayed by about 1/3 of the hundreds of party members who just worked to install him. These representatives aren't from locations people want to see massive protests at, those cities are already blue.
My elected representatives are not republicans, am I supposed to move to another state to protest on their behalf? Are we gonna get millions of people waving their picket signs in the potato fields of Idaho?
This is the exact type holier than thou bullshit I'm sick of. These are the mechanisms baked into our constitution; the voting population has made their vote. Any removal from office would happen by red state electors acting in good faith to protect the rule of law, and they've spent multiple decades proving they want to do the opposite.
You have just as much power to fly to any random red US state and protest somebody who doesn't represent you. What the fuck is your excuse?

ohhhh ok... so it's based off of "Throw One’s Weight Behind". I don't think I've ever heard it used that often, but now it makes sense for me. I just somehow had it in my mind that "throw" has a bit of negativity to it, because in my native language, it does.
thanks! -
I really hope that Europe finally decides to materially support Ukraine.
For the duration of the invasion Europe has flatly refused to make long term contracts for the order of artillery shells. They are more than willing to send what extra they have but they have not committed to the massive increase in manufacturing that is required for Ukraine to win . I was shocked when Germany announced massive automotive layoffs without government intervention to switch to war production for Ukraine.
So many of Europes challenges are related to the invasion of Ukraine yet they are not acting as if they are actively engaged in war or like they will be soon.
I have been absolutely puzzled for years why there hasn’t been a rush to create defense production capacity in a meaningful way. They only conclusion I came to is that Europe as a whole -Poland, isn’t really concerned about the outcome of the Russian invasion.
Poland is acting like this is a big deal.
Every other major nation seems to be waiting until they can get back to business as usual. Let’s see if this shocks them into actions they needed to take years ago.
The contracts need to be written, so the buildings can be built, so the machines can be put into them, so the workers can be hired , so the production can begin. It takes years.

No. They all know what to do, they can act TODAY. No summit necessary. Ukraine ‘s needs are known . Significant help can be sent starting today.
They need to ACT
-
Zelensky know its a bad deal, no concessions on Putin's part, and also he's not physically there, sent his golden retriever so his bidding
-
Many red states don't have recalls,

In English it definitely carries a connotation of recklessness I think, but it can also mean like a dynamic and forceful push, as opposed to actually letting go of something and making it fly through the air.
No worries, I love this stuff, I'd never really thought that much about the expression before so I learned something too.
