To these political animals, Machiavellian tactics are more instinct than intelligence.

Good work tracking this.

IMO all candidates should have a comprehensive promise list and voters can track and score them accordingly.

It’s typical tactic for monarch, keep multiple fractions in a controlled infighting and competing w each other, so the king can stay in power.

Nothing to cheer about honestly.

There are a lot of fake options in this country. Most of stores probably have mostly same things.

Dumping shopping would be the real statement.

Free Speech in trump era: you can say whatever you want wherever you want, nobody has to believe you. Words are meaningless, money and gun speak for themselves.

Korean president has very low approve rating and is quite unsophisticated in political operation. The martial law drama was widely considered stupid move by the president.

Trump II on the other hand is much more experienced and thoughtful in executing his playbook. America has a lower chance coming back from authoritarian, and the sacrifice needed to pull this off will be vast.

Trump is actually delivering what his voters expected, run the country like CEO, firing VPs and managers who he doesn’t like and hire those who will do what to be told.

This speaks to fundamental a lack of imagination of American society, rich CEO is the only model for American dream.

Success of capitalism taking over every corner of the society is probably the main reason. also the short history is another reason, as once you have a few bloody cycles of dynasties and folk lore about bad kings and deeper variety of inspirational characters, the society will be more resilient.

Vaccine trip to other states will be good business.

Letting pandemic killing the poorer and the weaker part of population is essentially building an open air gas chamber.
