"Five days before Russia attacked Ukraine, I met with President Zelensky to warn him about Russia’s plan to invade." [The Ukrainians had not noticed and neither did the UK or the EU until this little cackling woman from San Fransisco came and warned them.] Applause. Yo Ukraine something is up I learned from my vast experience with pot heads and public pretenders posing as defense lawyers negotiating coerced plea bargains to insure free labor for the state of California that something is up. Applause. Zelenski said thanks if you had not warned me I never would have known. Applause. As President, I will never waver in defense of America’s security and ideals. Because, in the enduring struggle between democracy and tyranny, I know where I stand—and where the United States of America belongs. Applause. I will work night and day to censor social media, sabotage 3rd party candidates and with my friends in fake news to undermine the first and second amendments to quickly move America to where my corporate sponsors and all kinds of elite psychos who hide in the shadows say it belongs. Applause. My work as a prosecutor posing a representing 'the people' I headed up the California branch of meat grinder called mass incarceration and it did not bother my conscience at all. Applause.
As an immigrant from Soviet Russia, Harris’ nomination is giving me flashbacks to the totalitarian country I left behind. Back in the USSR, we had no real elections — and ordinary people had no real say in who would govern “Mother Russia.” State rulers would appear out of nowhere and geriatric General secretaries — such as Nikita Khrushchev or Leonid Brezhnev — simply hand picked their successors. There were no election campaigns, no party platforms, and no debates. Decades on, America’s Democrats have clearly borrowed a page from this Soviet playbook. Although the US is far from communist, the similarities cannot be ignored. Harris was the only candidate on the Democratic ballot and the DNC restricted delegates from considering other candidates or submitting write-ins. Harris also has a penchant for Soviet-era governing styles — what with her beliefs that “capitalism isn’t working for everyone” and plans for centralized commodity pricing structures. Once Biden was sent packing, there were no debates to choose his successors, no primaries or actual voters involved. Why Kamala Harris’ DNC nomination reminds me of the Soviet Union With its lack of votes and transparency, the elevation of Kamala Harris feels like a page out of the Soviet handbook.
I used to think you may be mis-understanding a lot about this whole process. Now, I can see you're simply writing bollocks and trying to do whatever you can to help Trump. In Novemeber, there will be an election. The public will decide who wins. That's definitely not like the former USSR. It's not even as bad as the current Russia. The Dems are very concerned about democracy being lost, as they think it will be, if Trump were to be re-elected. That is why they went for the one candidate whom they think can beat him. That's bigger-picture stuff. It's about putting the Country and the people above the wants or wishes of the Party itself. That's proper stuff for a political party to do. We all should be concerned about who wins - not because the what the Dems say but, because of that which Trump has said himself. Trump has said that people only need to vote for him once this time because after he wins, there won't be any more elections, ever again. So, with that in mind, your statement of the Dems being like the former USSR is actually little more than deflection from what the guy you're backing back will do, if elected. And where that would lead is towards that, which you apparently criticise of your former home country. Your assertion that Harris has a penchant for Soviet-era governing styles; you've really gone down that rabbit hole. I say that because there is no correlation between her so-called (by you) penchant and a totalitarian style of government. Like may 100%ers, you seem to believe it's one way or the other. (If you don't believe that it certainly *is* what you are saying). Politics isn't like that. 100%ers can't win because their needs are as equal as everyone else's. In a democracy there's a spectrum of views and it's through dialogue and negotiation that a policy is arrived at, before the public then vote on it. So take you head out your sports game mindset (winner and loser mentality ) and grow up. Then you may realise that whatever you think you want now, you won't get but also, if the others were to do that 100%ing to you, you'd be much worse off than you are today.
Its impossible now for the public to truly decide who wins because they cheated us out of a primary that cackles could never win. That's delusional to think Trump wouldn't leave, term limit's everyone be like dude your not president. That's seriously crazy to think that. "That is why they went for the one candidate whom they think can beat him." Don't steal my vote and tell me its good for me then call it democracy at the same time. Who is "they" do you even know their names and did you ever vote for "them" ?
Yeah, remember when Harris met secretly with Vladimir Putin? Oh wait that was someone else..... What We Know About The 5 Meetings Between Trump And Putin
I have never seen a candidate run against themselves before. I will change what I done for the last four years !
Как вы можете так говорить? Russia means something different than that to me. And I believe in sustainability, so there is something to be said for mixing different styles of government to achieve that. Russia has been and I believe they will continue to be a leader in that regard. Recently leadership said "Russia will be a safe place for those who wish to preserve the values of Russia" «Россия будет безопасным местом для тех, кто хочет сохранить российские ценности». I believe that is tremendously meaningful! And no other country is as forthright about this factor; the preservation of values that have all but disappeared in other places. Russia reminds us. Russia helps to inspire us to achieve our potential in those values. Other times and other places freedom takes a priority that leads us away from such. Я считаю, что это чрезвычайно значимо! И ни одна другая страна не говорит так прямо об этом факторе; сохранении ценностей, которые почти исчезли в других местах. Россия напоминает нам. Россия помогает нам вдохновиться, чтобы раскрыть наш потенциал в этих ценностях. В другие времена и в других местах свобода становится приоритетом, который уводит нас от этого. Does this excuse them from atrocities committed? No. This is what's difficult, especially now. But let's not throw out the baby with the bathwater. Putin will not lead forever. When he is no longer in power perhaps Russia will open a new page in history! A beautiful meaningful and tremendously thoughtful new page.
Some of that is systemic. They have had lots of corruption issues in their cabinet, but that isn't a product of State funded healthcare or a subsidized civilian fuel program. They had a habit of prioritizing the purse strings and to that end trying to continue influence and power with a momentum uninterrupted. At what cost? That's the problem. But now Russia is more modern. Mostly they can allow a new leader and he or she will see the direction for the people much the same as the previous leadership. They'll not change the better direction since the better outcome can be achieved basically the same. There are some issues with allowing younger politicians into power though. We end up with some backwards indoctrination, and you've heard me complain about prioritizing freedom of thought without regard to the effect on values and traditions and cultures; and cultural imperialism when we borrow an idea from a frontrunner or breadwinner country, but it pollutes Siberia to St. Petersburg without thinking about the example set by allowing something untoward to be legalized. We saw Ms. Griner and the repercussions of having a processed cannabis product. That is modern or legal or socially acceptable a lot of places. But what we see in the Russian Federation is a push to remind us as citizens of Russia... That wasn't ever acceptable! Here it is NOT acceptable! Those laws might be easy for a young politician to accept. They have a lofty discussion in college not far behind regarding equality or some other freedom being framed as a positive. But the cumulative effect of so many new positive changes is to wear on the tradition of simplicity and virtue. We absolutely have to make virtue a higher priority, spirituality a higher priority than unbalanced/new freedom.
‘On Her Time’: Harris Campaign Official Says Dem Nominee Will Talk To Press ‘When She Is Ready’ DNC - We know our candidate no one voted for is so repulsive best thing we can do is just keep it out of site.
Y'know, Scam, you can say the same stuff 100 times or even say different things all along the same vein but no matter how often you do it, it doesn't make it true. There's not really enough people on here to affect the election outcome so your apparent obsession with denegrating Harris reveals quite a lot about you and your mindset. Your posts also explain and highlight to us how little Trump has to offer. I mean if he was that good, and worthy of election, you'd surely be banging on about his virtues rather than just dissing Harris?! I'm seeking out the block button now because I'm not going to give any sort of oxygen to your posts.
What I really want is each and every soul to know they have choices, and to know how those choices will articulate to their kids, or to their career, or to their parents. I don't want to take away or limit freedom! That isn't what I mean... That isn't what I mean to do. I think you should be informed through education and then after this is normalized and socialized... Finally, to understand you DO have freedom but that the 'thoughts' you choose to embrace are a legacy! Those thoughts and behaviors are handed to your children. Those social nuances are learned by our young. Saying, "" about 'freedom' of thought or of which behaviors or which subculture is socially acceptable or sexuality is a little like Carbon neutral vehicle choices, Your Carbon Footprint, or a relaxed attitude about Flying, and Air Pollution, or just Smoking Weed. These are our 'social footprint'. And I mean no disrespect. Has been here forever...
