→Was our support for Donald Trump all in vain?
:There is some valid criticism there. On the vital life-and-death issue of peace and war, it's almost a debate between lying vs incompetence. At least that's how it shapes up as a 2026 Midterm election issue. OTOH, by-passing war with [[Iran]] is an open question yet. There still a lot of balls up in the air in this juggling act. Same with the vital inflation and employment numbers as a result of tariffs - can they be made to look good before November 2026?

:It's an inherent flaw in our system. [[Democracy]] means people with an IQ under 110 vote. And the [[MSM]] shapes the narrative geared toward them. And our system with set elections every two years - unlike a parliamentary system - means we live in perpetual crisis. People are impatient and want fast results, kinda like waiting for the next pee-break during a commercial. So you have to master the art of debating with idiots with an IQ below 110 (for example: the premise that the notorious [[Nazi kill list]] in Ukraine was not created and maintained by a [[Nazi]], etc.) [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Zelensky Must Go!'']]</sup> 20:49, May 13, 2025 (EDT)
