President Trump

Our government is complicit.

An Australian reporter asked him a question on Epstein before flying to the UK he didn't like. The reporter and his country we're threatened in the response. So they banned ABC from the press conference.

I think Sir A F of Man U fame did the same thing to journos who upset him.

Yup, and he too was a dictator. Refs refused to annoy him by giving decisions against the rags as they wanted to appear at the swamp again. Fergie time was his weapon. Several players were kicked out for crossing bacon face. In his book, he said the art of management was to control everything. When he left there was nobody who knew how to do stuff, hence years of mediocrity.

Precisely what happened. I have written about this a number of times too. Authoritarian megalomaniacs, when they leave, can’t lose legacy-wise, in their own minds. Because if things continue to go well, it’s because of what they did to bring the organiz(s)ation to its heights. But if the organiz(s)ation fails, it’s because the authoritarian isn’t there any more.

Hopefully this happens to the Republican party, giving them a huge bloody nose so they realise they can't simply just be cunts and get away with it.

You don’t even need to look that far back.

The 2016 election thread had loads of us predicting all the heinous shit Trump and Miller are doing - it wasn’t hard because they’ve always said it out loud - and we got told we were hysterical lefties and how he’d be impeached and removed if he tried anything illegal or unconstitutional, how he wouldnt control the courts etc.

The US Constitution is no longer fit for purpose.

For most of its history it’s been a hugely effective document. Far from perfect of course, but (broadly) brought stability, freedom and progress to the States.

But there has to come a point where it’s no longer working effectively. And I believe that time is now. It’s remarkable it stayed effective for as long as it did tbh.

It’s one of the most remarkable documents in human history. But it’s time is done imo. It’s all falling apart.

I don’t think it’s been fit for purpose for a very long time, it’s just survived by not being tested too much until now.
