Senior Conservative MP says UK must consider possibility ‘Trump is a Russian asset’ - Politics.co.uk
A senior Conservative MP has said it is time to consider the “possibility” that the US president is a Kremlin asset. Graham Stuart, a former Foreign Office minister, issued the comment in response to Donald Trump’s decision to pause all military aid to Ukraine. The extraordinary move comes as the U...
YA THINK?!?!
You're viewing a single thread.
Honestly, why does it matter? Why not just focus on his policy and his actions? Trump is a fascist, oppressing liberties, defunding public services, and carrying out immensely harmful policy. Why the need to attribute that to a third country? Trump is only bad if he does these things because he's a Russian asset? If he did this all because of his oligarch friends, and the desire for imperialism in the USA, and the increasingly openly right wing governments in all of the western world, it would still all be wrong.
There's no need to summon le evil people from the east to objectively analyse the evil policy of Trump, and I don't understand why you guys need a racist dogwhistle to do so when he is literally every single day walking alongside someone who did two fascist salutes in the inauguration.
If this Russian support structure isn’t recognized and dealt with, Trump just be replaced by the next Russian stooge.
Trump was democratically elected, what are your plans against that?
In a broken system full of voter suppression. Not exactly a fair election by any stretch of the imagination.
...which the democrats upheld during the entirety of the elections. Are the Russians behind the dems too?
I prefer my oligarchy representatives to at least pretend they care, but I am not about to carry water for the Democratic Party.
At a certain point the two sides of the same coin falls apart. That point for me is local elections with issues about homelessness. The conservatives campaign to eliminate homelessness by trying to drive them away. The progressives try to solve the actual problems and get people help.
Edit: I also would like mention election reform. Many of the blue states have been hard at work making sure everyone's vote can be heard. Many of the red states are restricting voting so less voices can be heard.

So was Hitler. Thing is, natural law and positive law can diverge significantly, meaning ctitizens will sometimes have to organize against the products of positive law to preserve their decency and freedom.
Hitler never won absolute majority vote in an election, but I get your point.
I agree fundamentally with what you say even if I don't believe in a natural law, that's why I'm a socialist. So I suggest everyone to organise, to unionize their workplace, to build mutual aid structures in their local areas, and to join a revolutionary socialist party.
The USA could use a new electoral system with proportional representation and a new constitution with a weaker president and stronger checks and balances. The two party system needs to end. Laws surrounding political advertising and public financing of political parties should be introduced to get some money out of politics.
Replace common law with civil law to no longer depend on precedent so much. Finally introduce the metric system while you’re at it.
