    @FD1000,

    I have to give credit where credit is due.
    You have been very consistent in propagating nonsense to bolster Donald J. Trump's standing.
    Are you seeking a position within the president's administration?
    It does seem that you would fit in well alongside the other sycophants who are serving him.

    Always beware of people that only tell part of any story. It is dishonesty. All things are a mixed-bag.

    The minister of Propaganda position is already filled, unless Karoline Leavitt steps down. It could happen, perpetual lying is said to be hard on the psyche. Much easier if you have no soul or morality though.

    There is simply no way to paint Trump insisting/directing an Investment Bank on who they should hire/fire, as anything other than Authoritarianism with a capital "A". And not an isolated incident here. A small piece of a massive pattern of such behavior. Universities, tech companies, local government, legal firms, the courts. More and more each day, completely without shame. Plenty more to come.

    But hey, it is best if we talk about only the "good" things, and ignore the descent of free markets and democracy. Or any signals that the economic underpinnings may be telling a different story.

    And we live in a world where some people, who had their entire existence threatened by an authoritarian regime, cheer the guy on. Idolize him. Apparently oblivious to this dynamic.
  • Oblivious is exactly right. @FD1000 has already identified with not giving a damn if our country is being destroyed as long as he makes money on it. You're right about the propaganda- he and Joseph Goebbels would have a whole lot in common.
  • Go straight into 3:18. If I don't laugh, I'll cry.
