    For a politician to openly say he doesn’t give a shit is a very dangerous sign.

    An elected official speaking like this to the public means they’ve completely lost their fear of repercussions. They’ve lost their fear of public backlash, of public perception. They’ve lost their fear of being voted out.

    It means that in his mind there’s nothing to fear. He thinks he’s untouchable. He’s above you and everything you think and do. He’s your ruler and you’re his subject.

    It means he’s no longer afraid of you having a democracy.

      I never did, even before he jumped on the coattails of the obese orange paedo.

      On the positive side, his appearance and meandering uselessness did give us quite a few memes and laughs on the way.

      The world will likely never know for a few years. Just like those innocent North Korean fishermen wiped off the face of this planet because they used flashlights to see.

          They’re probably referring to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Amami-Ōshima

          Which turned out to be a North Korean spy boat camouflaged as a fishing boat

      Because Trump said so. That’s the only reason. Just like the “crime waves” in LA, DC and Chicago.

    Mussolini was captured by Italian partisans on April 27, 1945, while attempting to flee to Switzerland disguised as a German soldier. The following day, April 28, he and his mistress, Clara Petacci, were executed by firing squad near the village of Giulino di Mezzegra in northern Italy.

    Their bodies were then transported to Milan, hung upside down in a public square (Piazzale Loreto), and displayed before a crowd. This was done both as punishment and as a warning, since the same square had earlier been the site where Fascists executed resistance fighters.

    Just saying.

    Nothing new for the conservatives; this is just another one of their public figures now saying what they have been saying for decade upon decade behind closed doors.

    This is exactly what the conservative movement is about. Rules? Those don’t apply to US!

    Americans talk like they didn’t create the opioid crisis in the first place, profit from it, disavow it and in the process generate a mountain of homelessness. The idea that foreign gangs are arriving on their shores and corrupting the good and honest white folk of America is truly hilarious. Americans love drugs and their society is the perfect shithole to sell painkillers.

      I think it is pretty clear he has no power, and is not actually involved in “doing” anything. He is just the mannequin saying whatever it is they want him to say.
