US Politics Thread

[BlueHammer85]

I have just watched the new film Nuremberg and I tell you the end of that film scares the shit out of me because it’s happening again and this time in the most powerful nation on earth and there won’t be a Nuremberg trial for this lot unfortunately.

That was definitely a nod to Trump/MAGA near the end.

I've lived and worked in the U.S. since the Mets last won the World Series. Had a good career, paid taxes, traveled all over. and will probably die here. But I never became a citizen, being too irredeemably English to swear loyalty to another country. But at 77 I'm going to do it. When the ceremony's done and they hand me my piece of paper I want to ask "So I'm a U.S. citizen now? And i can speak my mind?" And when they tell me yes I'll say "well then, Donald Trump is an evil **** and I bet a lot of you in this hall agree."

I moved to the US in 2002. I was quite happy to live on Visas then a Green Card and recognize that politics was just something that happened to me. In 2019 I took citizenship because I simply couldn’t sit on the sidelines any longer.

The Yanks never signed up to the ICC.

There's no one to prosecute him.

All of the criminal family running the US are free of any fear of consequence, and they gleefully know it

State crimes is the way to go. No Trump pardons.

You can never tell if this real or not with the current administration.

From the epilogue to Bertolt Brecht's play The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui (Hitler as a Chicago gangster) written in 1941 but reworked in English translation after the war:

The dog is dead, but don't rejoice you men,
The bitch that bore him is in heat again.
