The right needed him and they knew if they put another Bush in power it would ruin the party. Trump cut a lot of deals with the money people and he helped them make a lot of it. The DNC also made a shit load of money from inside trading along with people in the RNC. Trump said a lot of stupid culture shit to get people all riled up while he removed some of Dodd Frank which allowed banks to take more risk, making everyone more money. Biden blamed the whole inflation thing on Trump doing that but he didn't choose to put some of the laws back that were removed from Trump. Even today he hasn't put them back in.

The bar is set extremely low so people's expectations are unreasonable in any direction. If there was such a candidate that had a good laid-out plan for Medicare for all and made it impossible for the people on the left and right to refuse. They would win in a heartbeat and become the greatest president in modern history. I had so much faith in Bernie but the dude fell flat and hasn't even whispered anything about it in a while. RFK seems serious in his attempt but there are so many obstacles that make his democratic seat nearly impossible. The DNC probably prefers Trump over him.

Hiring retired police officers and military vets to protect the schools would get mass support from left and right. Doing this would help solve 2 problems because 10% of homeless people are vets that have no purpose in life after going back to civilian life. The government just bailed out a bank in a heart beat yet they can't even create solutions to protect our children, its fucking disgraceful.

Everyone has nice answers in their head, but somehow, people keep electing narcissists. -
She probably doesn't have a mind or the fortitude to become a good president, but she's enough to give people hope even if it's not grounded on anything. People are incredibly shallow, and if there were an actual leader that held people accountable, the people would not like that person. Like the Bush family reigning from Bush senior, Clinton and Bush Jr showed the dangers of power accumulation. If Michelle were to get into power it would be like Barrack being in charge again, but if she just showed up with a smile and a few speeches here and there, the average American could move on with their lives. When an influencer like Logan Paul or Andrew Tate makes more money than a president you know, there are going to be some problems.
-
In a nutshell, RFK Jr would be better than Trump, Biden, Kamala Harris, Major Pete, Desantis The only person I have in mind who would never run would be Michelle Obama, shes loved even more than her husband.

That statement doesn't mean much, and paying attention to him positively or negatively feeds into his worship. Musk is painstakingly efficient at working and having enough time to mess around in twitter.

It's along the lines of being one but Bernie and AOC have been guilty of not speaking up for the BS that their own party. These kinds of things are similar to police officers protecting each other when knowing their colleagues did the wrong thing. This type of behavior undermines the public trust. has been doing not to mention what they should be doing with the Russia, and Ukraine problem, which is encouraging both nations to talk about a peace treaty and to hear both sides equally instead of just one side. If Naom wasn't working for some agency, why did he meet Epstein several times after he was charged? As someone so smart and so public, why risk your reputation meeting up with a pedophile and sex trafficker? There's a lot we will never find out, and Noam didn't do a very good job making a case for himself after a reporter asked him about it. If there is nothing to hide why not just tell the truth, I went to a few parties and he was in them by chance, I wanted to meet him to ask him not to spread any lies about me or some shit like that. Or I met him a few times just to let him know how big of a piece of shit he is lol Its entirely possible that his rapid decline in aging has deteriorated his brain and judgment

He said many good things when he was younger, but it's entirely possible he was planted by the government to create a "psuedo" movement only not to create one, sorta like how disappointing Bernie has shown to be like AOC. The world does not get its heroes; the rare time it does, they get shot. Institutions such as MIT and Harvard bring lots of influence in the world; perhaps if he was worth something valuable for humanities evolution, he would not have been part of those institutions. I can probably believe that a scientist that graduated from MIT is a humanitarian because there are only a handful of geniuses in the world, and some of them have to be good but a person that studies economics or more soft science does not actually need to be brilliant in the prerequisite. Among the OG activist, Cornel West is the last of them I have faith.

They are more right-leaning than Tucker is, I don't think Tucker will go with them, and frankly speaking, 100 million dollars is too little for Tucker. Despite what people feel about him, his viewership is tremendous.
-
@Hardkill Even when you love a candidate having them rule for too long is dangerous for the country; that's why they set term limits. That being said, they need to create term limits for Supreme Court positions.
-
Kyle offers some good commentary.
-
Despite some people may dislike him for his "anti" covid vax stance, if you look at the totality of his political career, he's been consistent in his beliefs. I think he could clean up the democratic party at the very least, divide it to the point where people may feel there are some honest actors in the democratic party. Like what Trump did to the republican party, RFK can do to the Dems. I can see a situation where he somehow becomes president where his life may be on the line, just as JFK was.

Fox must have been smart enough to create a contract just like the sports teams do for the athletes to prevent them from going to another team. If he quits, he doesn't get paid, and he can't go to another competitor in the case of firing him, Fox is contractually obligated to pay him or give up the contract to allow him to work anywhere. I believe the source is Megan Kelly so there must be some kind of legitimacy. It works well for Tucker because he gets paid to do nothing and it may be smart for Fox to hold his contract so he doesn't eat away from their revenue during the election.
-
If Tucker were smart, he would go completely independent and start his own thing on Rumble instead of being attached to Dailywire or whomever. It's reported Tucker is still officially under contract with Fox and it may not end until X amount of time, some people are speculating they will hold the contract until after the election.
-
No, they are not safe except the recent vax that was made for you know what, its the safest
-
Any time you get any type of ism or ist you will get some resistance because whenever people get married to any type of identity there will be failures.
-
Tucker has spoken against the military-industrial complex. He also talked about the Jan 6 insurrection, and he interviewed Robert F Kennedy Jr to talk about corruption with big pharma not to mention he was trying to get an interview with Putin which was probably the biggest reason IMHO
-
Once people realize being married to any specific identity is greatly limiting then we wouldn't have to obsess about gender, race sexuality, pronouns or any sort. People getting riled up about such things on either side are spiritually immature.

If the entire world had the same system of governing things would not work on a macro level. Socialism or capitalism works on those country where it works because other countries are either worst off than them which allows them to function. ie some African countries, China with its low cost labor, Apple factories in China had to suicide proof their factories because workers were literally killing themselves so apple could be the most valuable company in the world. North Korea undoubtedly offers lots of resources to China which in turn creates cheap Chinese products to sell on Amazon When people live well, others have to suffer in return. The survival game is real ugly and I don't think anyone really has an idea to change that.

Dont worry; humans have a wonderful imagination. If there weren't guns, they would use other means. In fact guns are not very effective compared to other things someone can make or create if they wanted to hurt lots of people. The human intellect and imagination is the most dangerous tool

The conversation needs to be had. I prefer humans to reduce it and have criteria for when and when not to. If it's for boner medication then no. The type of animal would matter too. Rats and mice have lower priority, whereas primates should be ranked higher. I don't know if I want to live for 10 or 20 years longer if it means torturing a bunch of monkeys. I have even asked my kids if they were dying, would they want animals to be tortured so they can live, and they said no. On the other hand, I can understand why people would do such things, and certainly, I can understand what a parent would do to save their child. At the very least, there should be some prayer or ritual in the name of the animals that are "giving up" their lives, like in Avatar or what Native Americans used to do when they hunted. We are more conscious than them, so our responsibility is higher. Despite of where Cov#d came from, it's fair to say our meddling with nature caused it. Karma has a mysterious way of working its way back to humans. We can consider such events as tax being paid. The tax bill wasn't that high, considering. A tax bill that costs less than 1% of us isn't expensive compared to the animals we wiped out of extinction or dramatically reduced their population. Without medicine, we wouldn't be where we are, but we are at a time in history where consuming less, and taking less from the environment will save us more than producing new medicines and even technologies. Here is a terrible video about monkeys being tested on by vice:

Getting rid of medicine that uses animals will be difficult because humans weigh human life is more valuable than animals. From there, it becomes an argument on who or what you love more. Lab-grown meat is a new thing, and the jury is still out there on whether or not it's safe to eat in the long run compared to the diet humans have been eating for more than 4 million years. If it all comes out to be a mistake to go in that direction it could bankrupt entire countries because the rise in healthcare cost. Every chronic disease known to man results in "science" being clever by manipulating nature or developing cost-effective processes to increase profit. Our technology is improving life for humans but costing the environment tremendously. I instead grow my food and raise my fish and chickens as a protein source. Regenerative farming ironically reverses climate change, and the best part is people don't have to stop eating meat; in fact, doing so would be better for the environment. https://www.syngentagroup.com/en/regenerative-agriculture https://regenerationinternational.org/why-regenerative-agriculture/

This thread is meant to excite people; if you are even half awake you wouldn't fall for it. It's crazy how many people are responding to it lol -
From what I hear from Russian people, it seems true.
