I seem to remember someone by the name of Donald J Trump did just that, and won 30 states, and the intellectual midgets went on a 3 year mission to impeach the man, first with fake Russiagate then a phone call. I am hopeful Jordan Peterson runs for PM of Canada and Dave Rubin has talked about running for office, things are just getting started so watch out a refreshing new political wake is coming,
There is almost nothing between left-wing and right-wing authoritarianism. These are lazy short-cuts used by identity politicians and historians.
But there is a difference between democracies and dictatorships. Regardless of whether they were left-wing or right-wing (by your analysis, not mine), was there ever a democracy that voted to become a dictatorship? And how did that turn out?
Sorry, I thought we were using the same standards used to accuse Russia of rigging the 2016 US Presidential race
No.
You were suggesting that the coronavirus pandemic was a benefit to China and speculating that the whole episode was planned. Its too soon to see how the pandemic affects China and the rest of the world but thereās certainly no evidence of deliberate intent to infect the global population with a deadly virus.
The evidence actually suggests that viral pandemics are increasingly common due to unintentional general human impacts on the animal world - Ebola, SARS, MERS, Swine flu, Avian flu, Zika. And others.
Surprise, surprise, a Trump tweet I agree with
Going back to Dennis3450 and the WHO, not an organisation Ive ever really taken any notice of or paid much attention to. I would have expected them to play a prominent part in fighting Covid, but it seems nations are doing their own thing. Maybe, and this is only a guess, they are more proactive in 3rd-world countries helping to organise.
Aha - there lies the difference - Pres Trump never hid in the dark in his life - whether I agree with a personās political viewpoint is irrelevant - but Iāll respect a person who stands up to be counted - win or lose
I hadnāt intended posting again this week, but saw this on another site and had to share

Enjoy your weekend
That Trump tweet has now been blocked!
His response will be interesting
Wow
.
Tucker nails it most nights.
Huge numbers of victims of these mega billionaires in charge of the Social media ā must be preparing to seek legal advice on how to reclaim their losses incurred due to biased banning and shadow banning - Best wishes to all of them !

A shorter version for those in a hurry.

"Elderly gerbil that has forgotten itās dentures tries to savage Rottweiller "
Our only consolation is that covid did not strike while Theresa May was Prime Minister.
(or as I like to think of her, the āActing Prime Ministerā)
For our American cousins here is a pic from Sky News a couple of days ago of the Rottweiller - well actually a pretty normal guy. He is a SPAD (special advisor to Boris Johnson) and the PM relies quite heavily on his advice.
Spadās are usually unelected as is the case here:
The controversy is that he is supposed to have broken lock-down rules and because he is high profile many are calling for his head including members of the governing party.
I broke the rules myself - I hugged my grandchild - but nobody noticed except the childās mum who gave me the all clear. Now if everyone in the UK who has broken the rules in the past weeks were to resign their jobsā¦
Amen to that brother ! - Can you think of any other team - you would rather have in charge just at the moment - ?
Youāre entitled to your OPINION of course - but it is at variance with that of many others - He is widely regarded as the āBrainsā behind the Brexit vote, Boris becoming PM AND the annihilation of the Labour vote in 2019 - And the āLeaving strategyā currently being pursued ! - As āPretty Normalā goes and to explain WHY the Swamp is desperately trying to get rid of him - take a listen to what someone American who was with hiim at Oxford Uni has to say about the āPretty Normalā Guy !
AS I said 3 days ago - "He can come and sit at the āFalstaff Tableā in the Boars Head - any time heās in town !
[You need to follow the link to the other thread - to get access to the āreferenceā which is only 3 minutes long = but highly informative ]
Aye, there are a few who dislike him in the corridors - goes with the territory i suppose.
Now the thing is back awhile i made mention of a plan he had to sort all the stuff about Brexit and Northern Ireland - remember no-one on the planet could see how the circle could be squared as the many analysts put it - how could you get the UK out and keep NI in.
I called it the: This plan is called the Peterma ācummingsā plan
At it happened - the square became a circle.
The Great White Hope of the Democrat Party
(ā¦ or, as Biden would say, āYou aināt black, but I pretend to be.ā)
Again I point out with no evidence what so ever 90% of American news media has spent the last three yeas not speculating, not suggesting but flat out accusing Russia of interfering with the 2016 election. Now if those 90% of the media would use the same standard they judged Russia and apply that to China what would the conclusion be. Seems pretty clear
