Just an observation, I hope Ukraine can make it through all this, but when this war started news was non stop how Russia was falling on their face and losing thousands of troops and equipment.
Now that trump won news is non stop Ukraine is losing ground and will fall without aid.
This is why Americans are so disillusioned with all this. The propaganda machine can’t stick to a narrative and makes people feel like everything is fake. The media in this country is so fucked and a big reason why people are so uninformed.
They were. In the early parts of the war. They've learned and adapted and currently outpace Ukrainians in arms, men, and doctrine.

Reminder: Biden was an OG neoliberal that helped Republicans convert their former opposition party into the modern hail corporate Democrats,and was a prominent figure in the legislation for waging our draconian and ineffective war on drugs.
Joe Biden was never your friend, he was complicit in changing our national politics to
Capitalist exploitation + rainbow ribbons(D)
Or
Capitalist exploitation + scapegoating(R)
I held my nose and voted for him in 2020, but that's just harm reduction. I'll take a serial killer over a cannibal serial killer that eats your fingers and toes before they kill you type thing.
Remember when people got mad at you for calling him Genocide Joe?
They still do. They're just even less justified than they used to be.

Could be using his last days on something constructive, or to earn lower and midde class trust back. Instread why not one last war crime for the road.
He could be using his king powers granted by the SCOTUS to give minimum wage, the funds he promised, fully cancel student debt, keep queer protections, make abortion legal, or any of the things he said he would do but somehow was always stopped.
But he just keeps giving aid to "Literally Genocide LLC" because who cares, he'll take that AIPAC money and run before the Trump fans start going after him.
None of that is possible for the president to do. That's all legislation. An official act isn't creating legislation.
And yet, this Supreme Court will grant trump immunity for every illegal action he takes while in office.
Official acts for the president would include using the military to do something. It's the executive branch. So yeah, he can do that. As for anything else he does that's unconstitutional, he would have to be impeached, which both congress and the Senate would vote against now. So yea. He can get away with shit. But he can't make legislation, he can just get Congress to write it and the Senate to sign off so the legislation goes through. Something that I don't believe that has happened since 2009 for a 2 month span, which is when Obama forced the American Care Act through.

Democrats are not a real party, it's just controlled opposition at this point.
Pretty much. Most candidates from both parties are bought by AIPAC as well as other lobbies. We have an oligarchy.
