Re: US Politics Megathread

I don't know if using tariffs is going to be good for the economy. I think that Trump's overall plan will result in a better economy then what we had under Biden/Harris I've said that many times. I don't have to fully agree with every one of Trump's actions or policies to prefer him over Biden/Harr...

Re: US Politics Megathread

The best solution here is for the EU to ban X from Europe, imo, so that we don't need to have this kind of discussions in the future. And another step in a good direction would be for Europeans to remove any service that comes from a US company: Google, Microsoft, etc. We need to get that decouplin...

Re: US Politics Megathread

The first type of voter I encountered as a volunteer on the Harris phone bank was the one focused purely on the economy. It is hard for us to grasp on this side of the Atlantic that soaring growth rates and low unemployment in the US would not be seen positively in the eyes of an American voter. Bu...

Re: US Politics Megathread

This was the DNC's to lose and they fumbled.

Mainstream outlets calling Elon Musk "co-president"

what a time line to live in
Musk knows Trump is easy to manipulate and bet on him. Gotta hand it to him, it's a smart investment
I think their stupid egos are going to clash. There can only be one dictator.

Re: US Politics Megathread

[mention]u184[/mention] I agree there are things they could have done better but to me it seems like the global backlash against incumbents as a result of inflation is a more reasonable explanation, rather than that Democrats would have easily won if not for their various mistakes. I think 2016 was...

Re: US Politics Megathread

While Obama did the clean and classy demonstration of winning the presidency through showmanship and social media exploitation, Trump pushed the model to a new level with the politics of rage, unleashing the deepest indignation, gossip, personal attacks and mockery, hot-blooded reactions, building ...

[mention]u2291[/mention] No, I mean that Obama himself was suspected of not being exactly what he presented as a facade of family man. Back then, in 2008, when he was competing in the primaries against Hillary, Bill Clinton publicly called his whole inspirational 'we can change' story "such a ...

I don't think Trump is a perfect person or president. Trump didn't trick or fool me I just greatly prefer him and his policies to Harris and her policies. It seems like the majority of Americans agree with me. Which policies do you prefer? A few would be: 1) Economic policies: Encouraging American ...

Re: US Politics Megathread

In the end for any political regime it is about how well you can control the population. You can use force like China or Russia or you can basically just propaganda them like in the USA.

Re: US Politics Megathread

I think Dolan brings a good point. Trump did everything to keep the spotlight on him and that worked out in his favor. Biden in 2020 was able to get the media on him (will you shut up man). Apparently a lot of people googled did biden drop out on Nov4th and 5th. In this day and age it makes much mor...

Re: US Politics Megathread

Thank you for your response. I actually do think that your beliefs do matter and that exchanging ideas is the only way forward. Whether or not you and I align on our views is one thing, but it is my opinion that political discourse has become too polarizing. People are entrenched in their positions....

Kamala's loss was more death by a thousand nukes. She was a deeply flawed candidate and I'll list a couple of her major issues for you. 1.
