  2. Bernie used the "Social" word in his 2016 Campaign and despite that had polls showing that he would most likely knock trump cold down at that time. Essentially that 2016 was a mess within the Democratic party and that made more room for Trump. Add to it that the Campaign against Hillary and the immense Social Media voter construct of the Cambridge Analytica was tipping a large scale –Or in fact, it was not even that large at the end. – As European, I was literally shocked to see the actual (popular) votes being in favour of Hillary, but that the Electoral System "changed" the outcome – At that point, I simply lost any belief in the US election system as being a viable democratic construct (I know it is a republic) – even the term Popular Vote is still Alien to me – A vote should just be a vote. Gerrymandering is yet another completely absurd and obviously abused political election tool – it should not exist. Furthermore, I am completely positive that no two parties can represent all the interest of +325 Million people – it is absurdly simplistic contrary all the other elections stuff being absurdly complicated and it makes the US democracy linger in the status quo as it does now. If more political parties was represented it would secure that the politicians would need to do actual politics including compromises and not just blocking the only other party. The people of the USA is essentially a very complex mix of many origins and so is the local cultural regions and is yet another reason for having a broader Political spectrum represented. I also do not understand the American Worker – The conservative narrative is immense and when comparing US worker rights to European workers rights the differences are huge – Essentially the American Worker has not gotten a raise in about +30 years, add to it the lack of Materanti Leave and Paid Holidays combined with privatized healthcare makes the American dream smoulder into a nearly barren landscape of workaholism that more simulate hidden slavery than a modern society. If anybody is telling an American person that they live in the best country in the world they are simply dead wrong ·– The USA is more and extremely smart construct of hidden but essentially organized Tyranny played at the Everyone for himself, be proud, be strong and keep winning – which logically is impossible for everyone to do, so you end up with a few winners and a lot of "losers". But I guess that the Unions was bullied and corrupted into nearly non-existent organisations, wielding no real power at all. That again is a noticeable difference – the European Worker Unions are still represented in the political negotiations between the State, the private sector and the workers which makes a huge difference in why Workers right and benefits for the European workers are much better than for the American Worker. I must add the European worker still might be somewhat nationalistic and/or conservative in his or her political view, but since there many more parties to vote for, the choice is not reduced into the "Conservative" vs "Democratic or perhaps more correct Right vs Left. I sincerely hope that the USA will get a new president at the next election – I am not suggesting who that should be or of that person should be a Republican or a Democrat, only that Trump is for certain a really absurd president that has achieved nearly nothing but tax breaks for those that need it the least and pulled the USA out of so many international agreements that suggesting the USA is being the leader of the free world is becoming a farce of epic proportions. Guns and hardcore religious beliefs are a thing of the past and not a good combination – just look at the middle east – everything the US officially is fighting it does in its own backyard. It is not what the world needs now, it is not the way forward. USA! Get a better leader, that is at least not so obviously self-absorbed, literally ignorant and obviously incapable of doing his job.

  4. In nearly every case with Trump he has started off on the wrong foot, then later to come back and appear to fix it, mostly brining it back to where it was – Essentially he achieves nothing but media coverage. In retrospect his is nearly incapable and the best current deal for the Republican party is a status quo, because he is not the guy who can not make it happen. He did though achieve one major thing and that was the tax breaks for the top – it happened while everybody had their jaws hanging down wondering what the hell this guy was up to – but at least now it is pretty clear that he is up to no good and even if he was he could not make anyway. Spoiled, incoherent, narcissistic, ignorant, illiterate, repeatedly lying, trying to make everything a large thing on his behalf, performing best on the golf course, In best company with dictators and the old enemy Russia, Exploiting his own assets for Tax payer money and he can´t even cover it up. Not only does he have all these bad traits but he is also way to old and I am sure the system behind it knows that he does not have a clue. Even from the very beginning he stated publicly that he did not read the security reports from the various national US security organisations – Crazy. Trump does what he always has been doing in the Trump Organisation – making some deals he think are really smart and bullying it off if it turns out it was not so smart afterall. He is far from fit for the job – way way too many interests at stake both domestic and international – he can not fathom it all and he can not fake it all – His only chance is to just be Trump for as long as possible because that is the only thing he knows. He is also a split personality which sometimes makes him unpredictable even for the hawks add to it that he sometimes is a bit lucky – but that should not really be the positive traits for the president of the USA. This guy is a complete failure as a President unable to do or even inspire the slightest trust to all those that looks in the direction of a world leader. All Presidents face various problems that they can not always solve – The big difference is that Trump is the problem.

  5.  geheimschriver  Properly (in the cases stated with dictatorship) we (as in Europe) would like to do something about it, but I am quite sure we could not do much: 1. The USA has the largest standing army in the world equivalent to at least the 5 next largest armies combined. 2. The USA being placed in North America makes it very difficult to conquer – or in other words, to actually put boots on the ground to regain control. 3. The citizen of the USA is armed to the teeth and would make any case of the above even harder to do. 4. This may sound sarcastic and it is, but with the education level declined on so many areas, thus the indoctrination of US citizen post-WWII, it would perhaps be very difficult to establish any reasons that would resonate with an uprise by the US citizen. This part is a very unfactual statement, but if a majority or close to a majority are choosing the dictatorship, then why would they want anything else, at least until most would have suffered enough over a longer period. 5. in a US future dictatorship it would also be very difficult to use "propagandistic" methods to turn the tide against the dictatorship – since powers in the US are already at top of that ballgame, even the Military has special branches for these parts of the war machine, not to mention surveillance systems like the NSA. 6. Did you know that the 2nd largest language in the USA is German (Sieg LOL). The whole problem of Biden in a worldview is that "we" have essentially come nowhere and only learned that Trump definitely was a step in the wrong direction. After Trump, we will be back to status quo, and strangely that is to be considered a win because the alternative is unbearable.

  6. Somehow, it properly comes more down to how good the Democratic nominees will do. They certainly on paper should have a window of opportunity due to the endless scandals made by Trump, but it is politics and it is the USA – The usual key points of abortion, guns and healthcare will for sure surface and that might cause otherwise Swinging Republican voters to change last minute. Democrat candidates should also decide on their foreign policy messages – it should not be too difficult considering the mess the Trump administration has done in that area – never the less the messages must be clear and unwavering. Though I always loved Bernie for his consistency on his politics I think that both Biden and Bernie are getting too old for the job, just like Trump is too old for it. The recent US withdrawal from the Paris Agreement should also raise some concern that the USA needs someone with a practical, progressive and sincere eye on the worlds environmental challenges, not just the Co2 question. In fact it is a scandal that a supposed world-leading economy is abiding already difficult plans for the global future directions and a lack or ignorance of seeing opportunities in regard to green technology and new jobs over withholding the old power circles of the oil industry just speaks volumes of the power infiltrations of the USA. I would even hope that a much more qualified fresh and younger Republican candidate would surface since nearly anybody with a "normal brain wiring" would be a better choice than Trump regardless of political side.

  14. Form the outside of the US there is a lot we do not get to know - I heard about Trump wanting to open up the east coast for oil and gas drilling extraction in the ocean. I have also heard someone talk about many other legislations that he has made while in office – mostly some that have to do with property rights and or oil business. Is there any truth to this and what other things has he made while in the office I wonder?. And I am not saying this to sort of support Trump, I think he is a Grande Narcissist and suffers from other mental issues as well – he is also often an idiot in my eyes. But I just wonder if we are led astray falling for his media scams all the time while he is doing stuff that actually has some very significant influences like Oil Drilling in critical oceanic habitats and similar sort of things. The case of Bolton is a thing that one must consider since before Trump Bolton was nearly always considered a "War Monger" and a person that certainly were not supported by the left side of the room – so some things can easily turn a bit upside down in the havoc Trump has created. In any case, there seems to grow a somewhat negative feeling around Trump (with good reason) like he can not shake it off anymore – more and more things come his way and he got nothing really positive counters going for him – in fact from all the things that have been revealed in international media during his presidency there is nearly no real good news, only one thing bringing NK and SK on slightly better standing. Perhaps he has finally run out of luck and enters waters of bad timing. I was never a fan of Biden as the main candidate, but regardless if he can bring simple but factual messages "facepalm" like to the campaign, Trump will be in for a real battle, because there are so many lies, absurdities and other crazy events around Trumps Presidency that it is like a goldmine for anybody who can put it into a strategic campaign. And Yes, David is a usually pretty on target for reasoning – It can´t be both Lies and Confidentials – either it is confidential/classified information or it is a lie.

  28. "We" The Human Race is not ready at all – We can´t fix shit and even when we can fix something usually some idiots will try to avoid the fixes at all cost – we are continuously adding to the shit we leave behind in our delusional self-importance of being the smartest beings on the planet earth. We are existentially self-destructive and emotionally overcharged – having the technology, planning ability and all sorts of learnings to our disposal and still, we take photos of our lives while the boat is nearing the waterfall. We never have enough, not only materially but for stimulation and entertainment as well. The worst sickness yet is Greed, and next to that Power followed by unhinged ambitions often we no real purpose other than spending some untarnished energy or trying to become something or somebody before we die. The world we have created is not normal – its Fucking far out and completely out of synch with the planet we live on. The Western World live in a synthesized bubble lacking any real connection to the planet and large part of the rest of the world is either caught in problems leaving little to hope for the better or they also just want the same thing that people in the west have. Either way, it's pretty fucked. And a leader like Trump is just showing how stupid our idea of a great society is – Many leaders and governments before him did a lot of horrendous stuff – Even what happened behind the scenes of the well-spoken Obama administration was to criticize but surely that does not make Trump any better at all – we have just taken one more step towards the abyss of mass stupidity showing that the average normal human does not have the capacity to reason and reflect on anything even mildly complex and will turn to emotional spurred garbage whenever it is possible to avoid challenging the so-called smart brains that we are supposed to have. The planet will survive – but we will not – Give a take 3000-5000 Years maximum and most likely the human race will be extinct, both on planet earth and elsewhere we will venture. And what is 5000 years in the 4.5 Billion years history of the planet but a sand grain on the beach – it´s nothing absolutely nothing. And here we are debating absolutely useless shit and pointing fingers at each other, blaming anybody but ourself for the lack of who knows what and why – I am sure most people would not be able to explain their reasons for certain opinions on all sorts of subjects without ending in absolute Ludacris explanations or ending at the super simple existential common grounds like "For My Family and Freinds, for my loved once, and the even worse for Honor or self-respect BS stuff. That is what it comes down to for most humans on the planet – we are not capable to take this much further without hurting our brains. The Human race is far from ready – it is not even ready to survive itself – No matter how you look at it – the things we do are mostly absolutely senseless and disconnected – The deeper understanding of Earth life has vanished from most parts of the terraformed world – "We" don´t know what we are doing and we don´t know why we are doing what we do – If we did we would not continue doing it. (no disrespect) but Even a visionary person like Elon Musk doesn't know what he is doing – he just knows that he has to do something. We glue to reactions and counteractions as if it was the answer to everything we do, because that is about the best or making the most sense that we can up with to justify our existence – but in the big picture that is about as insignificant as it gets. We are not ready and even if we considered ourself ready we properly would not even know what we were getting ready for. Do you consider the human race "Ready" and if – what do you consider us ready for?

  38. At the Election, the voters supporting Trump was essentially split up in 5 different segments. Those that seek to avoid Trump being re-elected should pick up the trail on how to get swing voters to change their possible vote. The Cambridge Analytica did their stuff that way (highly unethical) but one should not avoid learning from their overall strategy on the subject. Essentially the time has already arrived when all the debates need to take a turn and not simply generalize all that voted for Trump as the same – It is about starting a constructive debate with those earlier Trump voters that now might very well be standing in the middle ground and then forget about the rest that will continue to vote for Trump no matter what happens. The 5 segments of Trump voters did not vote for Trump the same reasons – in fact far from it. It should be a key factor for the coming election since it is also not certain how many more voters will join the next election and so swing voters should remain an essential target. Considering the Gerrymandering in motion it is highly likely that the Republican Party is betting on a very reduced number of overall voters. Just a reminder not to completely scrutinize all Trump voters, since it will just have the opposite effect. And even that the Trump part played very dirty, the Democrats also made their very own havoc adding to the failure. Many polls over the time up to the election showed that Bernie Sanders would have crushed Trump if he had been to one to run for the office – essentially unheard off considering Sanders repeatedly used the forbidden word in the USA "Socialism". Trump is not a conservative, he is way unstable to be considered as such and he is not a strategist either since his immense ego is blocking him from making real strategic moves that have any beneficial effects. He is not only destroying the USA´s reputation, but he also unstabilizes all allied connections in both military and in trade as well a bringing the Republican party to a corner where they can only play the dirtiest of tricks and that is not at all constructive even for the Republicans. Adding to it that he essentially is playing into the hand of Puting, which together with China can only benefit from a weakened USA and Europe (Brexit). When Bush Jr. entered office there were white house staff saying "the Crazies are Back" – I wonder what they say now.
