If he goes the world can start to reflect and heal.

I'm not convinced.  We, in the UK, voted for our own right wing racist project five months before Trump got in.  Maybe we empowered them?

I think neither Trump nor Johnson have any idea how they came to power, it’s the hand, minds, money and expertise behind them that propelled them and formed the lack of ideological bent which they are caught up in. They gave full authority to a bunch a spivs who figured out how to rouse the rabble for their own ends and their heads still spin trying to understand it, but arrogance is an easy thing to pander to.
 

There are a group of individuals running roughshod of democratic tradition with their amoral approach to politics and they are using big data, focus groups, social media and semiotics to bend the will to their ends, whatever that may be, and that’s the real power. This is not really a nation state specific thing as these ideas can be used ‘cookie cutter’ style and have an impact. You only need a minority to shout a majority down if they don’t have the will to oppose.

 

This has always been a power grab whereby the electorate, ironically, give credence to them. No matter how much cognitive dissonance is involved people will dig in and support their people because they’re in an echo chamber that’s been created for them.
 

It’s almost too perfect. You get the people who should be clambering over the castle walls to defend it, whilst you plunder.

Fuck me. Wouldn't be surprised f that was canned applause either

Part of me wishes the cunt would just drop dead but then another part of wants to see him get crushed at the ballot box, refuse to leave and be 'escorted' off the premises by the Army/Secret Service and then spend the rest of his days behind bars/destitute and homeless.

The latter would be much more satisfying

Powerful from Michelle Obama. 
 

Cant disagree with anything she says. If only we had somebody as respected who could stick the boot into that bumbling honey monster.

 

I’m assuming Trump’s inevitable Tweeted replies will be hilarious though.

I watched that this AM. I was very impressed by what she said and how she said it.

Possibly, but he has a few months left where he could do more damage.

 

I'd rather he died today.

Fucking barmy, I still just scratch me head. 

 

Trumpy doing the draw for the quarter finals of the Rumberlow cup 1992. What odds would a bookie give you then on the doughnut becoming president of the united states?

And like many things the cunt touched Rumbelows no longer exists. 

[Gnasher]

We are not in the above draw, wonder who knocked us out that year.

[Gnasher]

I have to whisper but Trumps got a good point in response to M Obama.

 

 

[Bobby Hundreds]

He certainly never wrote that response.

I found that video a bit superficial and lacking in substance despite eloquent delivery (could say the same for her husband), I mean "it is what is is"?! That  was until near the end when she spoke about getting out to vote, about packing a lunch bag and seeing it through.  That hit home, hopefully people were still watching at that point.

Trump said 150k dead is “it is what it is” !!!.

 

I thought it was well structured. Brief scene setting, stick it to Trump, big up Biden, tell people what they need to do to make sure Biden wins. 

[Bjornebye]

I'd have Michelle Obama in office right away if I could.

I think his short attention span, rants and bumbiling idiocy in some way protect from the hard nose viciousness of the republican party in a as much that it is an obstruction to them getting on with their horrific agenda in a more efficient manner. Having said that they have passed the gigantic tax cut for their donors, upped military spending and have packed the courts with their stooges so perhaps they are doing just fine even with the imbecile in the proponent position.

It was all of that but the content was much of a muchness until towards the end.
