After 4 years of the clown in charge it was still a narrow victory, why are so many people voting for Trump is my point, and no I don't have the full answer. That needs sorting, btw can you vouch that every single one of the democrat voters is not disaffected?Comment

If Hitler was put into jail for 20 years for his beer putch then a lot of bad things would not have happened, same thing here.
You know it wasn't just Hitler? Even if they had taken him out of the game something would still have happened because of Public feeling. Possibly decades later but it needed to explode.
Who knows, we could have had the Goebbels or Drexler youth? They might even be more competent and subdued most of Europe before attacking Russia.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

I think you'll find the "remoaniacs" in the UK consider themselves disaffected, but those advocating that politicians resolve the issues of "disaffected" voters only mean themselves. It's just a selfish attitude to politics, that needs to be confronted.I'm alright JackComment

It’s about role of personality in politics - some got much bigger talents to fook things up, so taking out Hitler would have made things better - that’s a note to my next time travel, and if you argue ever again about it then this argument will not have happened...Comment

Trump is easy to explain. The USA voted for someone famous from a reality TV show who claims a $3bn fortune that largely doesn't exist, spent 5 years (including the campaign) telling lies about his opponents, his achievements and how great America was becoming while simultaneously buggering up the economy, failing to deal with Covid and ruining the USA's reputation across the world. Since this is a country where the majority don't have passports and their press doesn't bother to report on events outside the USA, it's easy to see why his support persists: people genuinely think he's doing the job he says he is, as opposed to the one he has been doing.
Add to that the very natural desire for other Republican politicians to retain their seats and hence their very lucrative power base, where we are now is very obvious. There are signs of a split in the party that may mean Trump isn't re-selected as a candidate in future, (although he has several equally appalling relatives who could be) but not that the impeachment is going to happen in the Senate.Blog? What blog...?Comment

Could we genuinely see a 3-party system emerge? I somehow don't see Trump wanting to spend another 4 years campaigning even if he can avoid legal challenges. But then the man seems to have boundless energy - for anyone let alone someone his age - so perhaps.
USA is really only an adolescent though, so could we see all this as growing pains?Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
