"So now the Republicans are going to push for a constitutional law change to allow him to serve a 3rd term and set the limits on only 2 consecutive terms. They really have drank the cool aid" It has a 0% chance of succeeding, but a Trump/Obama face off in 2028 would be lolz | |||

Let's see if he can sort out the medical train wreck that is the USA first and take it from there. | |||

"Its weird the way history has a way of being forgotten when convenient. People thought Hitler would be a breath of fresh air for Germany back in 1933. Hitler wanted to make Germany great again, had territorial ambitions over its neighbours, revelled in marginalising minorities and turning them into scapegoats for his perceived threats. Sound familiar Donald?" Exactly this. The events that are happening now are a rerun of what happened then. A lot of people have forgotten these events or just don’t know. Worrying times. | |||

"He’s now threatening to withhold wildfire relief unless California without a change to voter ID and changes to water regulations. I’m no expert in US legal stuff, but a dude on TikTok said that bribery (withholding disaster relief without other promises in return) is an impeachable offence. It’s day 4 of Trump’s second term…." They voted him back in, they've only got themselves to blame. | |||

"I find it interesting that people in the UK are getting so anxious about the issue of multiple terms of office for US political leader, can anyone tell me what restrictions there are on the number of times a UK politician can hold the position of Prime Minister. (Yes I am aware they are not exactly the same but essentially they are the country’s political leader)" In the UK we vote for a political party to be the Government. The Prime Minister is just the leader of the party and can be removed and replaced at the will of his majority party. The American system places a single individual at the head of one of the coequal branches of Government. He appoints a cabinet to execute his instructions. He can only be replaced by impeachment. The system is different. | |||

For all intents and purposes the prime minister is in charge of government policy and direction, the jobs are the same in essence, and as for removal of an incumbent are you aware that a British government, if it had sufficient majority and its own party support could actually pass legislation that would do away with future elections, they would have to cross the usual hurdles that all legislation goes through but it is possible under our process. It interests me that people here have so much to say about other countries and their systems of government, when our own could do with more scrutiny. | |||

Starmer is, for me at least, the right leader in that he takes a route he thinks is right despite it being unpopular. Whether or not it is right we can only wait and see. When viewing the USA through the clear lens of a telescope, unaffected by the propaganda Americans are swamped with from birth, we can see the promises of the popularists and potential dictators are quite simply undeliverable and in many cases inhuman. | |||

Letting poor people starve 2.putting a big gun to the back of the weaker party 3. Introducing silly laws to diverge peoples attention, and then refusing to talk about the bigger issues. | |||
