Did someone else hear a shout that sounded like "I'm not special!😭"? Down south?

Eh, must've been the wind.

Sadly, yes. I mean, Trump knows he's 'close' to his grave and needs to leave some kind of legacy - even if it's the Hitler kind of one - his narcissistic self just wants to enter them history books as one of the big humans instead of 'another rich guy' as a footnote.

Pretty sure either Elon or Vance are already lined up for when the time comes. When Trump leaves the world, and when there's no longer actual rules preventing them from taking over and 'fixing' under martial law what big bad orange wrecked. At least according to them, that is.

No matter how bad what they're doing seems this is just the preparation stage. Things can become so, so much worse, and the more we let them consolidate power the tougher it'll be to fight it later.

And some will defend them as hardworking people who worked day in and day out for their wealth.

I'm sorry, no intention to depreciate your effort or success, but if you are building a super-yatch and your employees still have to pee in bottles you are greedy scum who doesn't deserve success. There's more than enough success to distribute part of it into happy employees who like to work for you, while still leaving you nasty rich.

No one needs untold amounts of wealth, and frankly there should be a cap at "fuck you money" level. Once you can spend "fuck you money" you know damn well you don't need any more, you just need to maintain yourself there.

Yes, yes, every piece slowly falls into place. *Cue maniacal villain laughter

It's like they actually studied history, to try and replicate the desired results as identically as possible. Or they didn't, at all, and this is just 2+2=4 scenario but with history.

Oh? I was under the impression you didn't need us lesser and grifter nations? That we took you for a ride?

Hm... I propose a fair trade - you might even call it "the best deal ever". Our eggs, for your cards.

Wait, I forgot. Your cards lost their value recently, as they couldn't do shit for Ukraine against our common enemy.

Did not see this one coming, for sure. /s

Bet the ultrarich tax breaks are marked with a bright red "Priority No. 1" though, right? 🥸

Nice. Symbolism on point. 👌

Shouldn't even be up for consideration at this point. Buy jets from trustworthy people (like EU), and if you want total defense independence start building the framework to build Canadian jets for when these ones approach EoL.

I'm sure not-nazi Elon has everyone's best interests at heart for going there, right? Right?...

Maybe he's just looking for marketing data to improve his tanked tesla sales. Yeah, must be it.

If anything it's cause for national insecurity, given that if they invade, per NATO rules, an attack on one is an attack on all.

But Trump is used to getting what he wants by breaking the rules and facing no consequences, so I guess it'll be a FAFO thing.

I must admit, I do fear that if it comes to that NATO will fight the usual way - strong worded letter. For a buffoon who can't even read and only responds to a fat stick to the face.
