Quote me if I'm wrong but isn't this fucking illegal to have a private citizen act on behalf of the United States government?
Nixon did it with the Vietnam War. Reagan did it with the Iranian Hostage Crisis. Trump did it with Putin in 2016 (and then Pardoned Michael Flynn for taking part in it).
Add it to the pile. He's above the law
Downvoted for the title. Not sure what kind of mouth breather trend that is, but it's not lasting
I remember a person on Reddit using this.

As to why... I hope OP tells us.
I've seen them explain it elsewhere. As i recall, they liked the reaction it got, and do it for that.
He can say what he wants. He can endorse Adolf Hitler and nobody will bat an eye. Meanwhile Kamala has to watch every letter that crosses her lips.
He said himself, in early 2016 I think, that he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and he wouldn't lose any votes.
But why is that actually? It baffles me.
This would normally totally annihilate a presidential run. Fucks sake, they were ended by a guy saying "please clap" or having a weird laugh.
But then again, only cultists vote for this man.
The guy is literally too stupid to stop hitting himself in the nuts. And then he blames the "deep state" for making him hit himself in the nuts.
While you may think he's hitting himself in the nuts, polling says otherwise. I know, it's infuriating.
Am I the only one who thinks that IF the US survives this election that things have to change radically?
You can't have a democracy like this when a convicted criminal mobster wannabe can just get enough votes to install himself as a dictator and if he doesn't that he just organizes a deadly insurrection to try and get himself there anyway
The USA needs to get rid of this winner takes all system, it needs to rid itself of this system that requires a president. What it needs is 20-30 political parties that each get a share of the pie and have to work together.
This situation has gotten worse EVERY election since Reagan, last time we had a failed coup, this time we may get a dictatorship, what. The. Fuck.
I'll continue. The supreme court needs to be removed entirely and be replaced with whatever is better. The police forces need to be completely overhauled. Pacs and super PACs need to be illegal immediately, every cent in politics needs to be accounted for. An absolute split between church and state, and while at it, tax churches heavily. Undo all gerrymandering, return taxation to how it was in 1940, updates for current times tomokug loop holes but going up to 100% on income after an x amount per year. Nobody should be able to be a billionaire, hell, nobody should be able to be a 100 millionaire. After a certain amount of wealth, that's it, you can make more but it all goes to taxes.
Edit: to add to this: news organizations should be government funded through a neutral third party. Nobody wants to pay for Jews anymore but we desperately need it. So let's make sure it's funded and out laws (back) in place requiring journalists to be neutral and honest. Fox News style ~~"news"~~ bullshit should never be allowed. Opinions is fine, as long as that's what it is clearly called and labeled as. If a news organization obviously focusses on one type of politics, out you go. Also, break the 24 hour news cycle. We don't need news 24 hours a day, as it inevitably leads to a numbers game which leads to news organizations to just publish clicks for money, which leads to news about how there is crime like there is no tomorrow while reality it's the other way around. News should be informing people, stop the misinformation.
Another add: schools should be required to teach about voting, how to vote and why it's important. Just, obviously, not what to vote. Right now so many people vote for person X because "he seems such a sweet man, I'd love to have him over for dinner!" With that, don't allow political parties to use slogans, as it dumbs everything down to stoopid.
Just a few things to start with...
My concern since late 2018 or so has been that America is effectively terminal, it's just that we don't know it yet. That we've passed some internal tipping point before waking up where even if we try to course correct, it's too late to stop the decline. I'm not sure we can get the momentum anymore to fix it. Biden and even Kamala feel more like a temporary reprieve where we'll only have enough power to stave off total collapse, but not enough to actually make any headway. Which is basically all Biden has been able to do.
On one hand, I agree with you
On the other hand, Jesus Christ didn't the Middle English fad die out in like, 2013 Reddit?
And you should be glad it did. Germans didnt get so lucky.
r/ich_iel and ich_iel@feddit.org STILL think it's funny not to use english words and instead translate them literally so it sounds like complete nonsense. ("Zangendeutsch") This joke got old like 10 years ago but if you use even a single english word you will still be greeted with "Sprich Deutsch du Hurensohn" which means speak German you son of a bitch.
I just want good memes in my own language, but that community is insufferable.
/rant, sorry
Don't worry, I'm sure in a few years he'll be indicted, and then a few years after that there will be a trial, and then a few years after that he might be forced to grift his followers to pay a fine.
Just as the classified documents case, this would be grounds to put Trump in military jail, instead of pussyfooting around a corrupt justice system he appointed a large chunk of. DNC being a neocon fundraising organization is pro Trump if he is more pro Israel.
It worked for "Tricky Dick". He just didn't feel the need to go blabbing it to everybody because back then you couldn't get elected without at least pretending to have morals.
If you're going to use eth I just wish you'd use a vowel for 'the'. No other consonants imply vowels in english.
People seem to also be ignoring that this entire conflict is a direct consequence of Trump assassinating Soleimani.
