US politics - is weird (part 6)

There is a Town in Austria we did a walking tour and the highlights were all about Adolf.

There was film of a speech he did where he was frothing at the mouth, and the crowd, especially the young women were in rapture.

$64k question.

And

The most baffling part of Trump is that he did nothing, absolutely nothing, during his presidency that was worthy of or justified the level of fanaticism his supporters have for him.

Then, there’s the New York Post.

Not really all that bizarre when you consider that those megalomaniacs know which fears to pull like the strings on a marionette, making their followers dance to their tune. The human brain is surprisingly malleable and can be made to believe literally anything.
Those 3 examples used the same techniques but a different way.
Rational people can see through it.

Nothing is more important than dissecting Idiocracy being described as mediocre. That kind of language will get someone Brawndo-boarded.

As details of his passion for Ukraine have emerged, some on the far right have claimed Routh may have ties within the US military, with some going even further to say the arrested suspect could have been part of a larger plot. There is no evidence to suggest either – and none of those spreading the rumors have put forth any proof.

“What are the odds that this shooter, who spent months fighting in Ukraine, has zero links to anyone in US military or intelligence circles?” Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, wrote on X. “Find them.”

Questions surrounding how Routh knew Trump would be golfing that day, given that the round wasn’t on a public schedule, led some to suggest that those tasked with protecting the president could be in on the attempt. The former president praised the Secret Service in the aftermath of the apparent thwarted shooting.

Another conspiracy theory claimedRouth appeared in a video for the investment firm BlackRock. The video footage circulated along with the claim shows him at a protest in Ukraine, though the video is unaffiliated with the firm, the company said, adding that Routh “has never been an employee of BlackRock nor has he appeared in any BlackRock ads”.

The theory attempted to tie Routh to Thomas Crooks, the shooter in the first assassination attempt against Trump in July, who did appear in a BlackRock commercial when he was a student at Bethel Park high school in Pennsylvania.

I don’t get into American politics or politics much at all to be honest but I have genuine question.
I see videos of Kamala running with saying things like yep day one we are doing this that etc so my question is wouldn’t this be a knock on herself that they haven’t done these things over the past x amount of years ?

The VP doesn’t really have much say in things and are, in fact, chosen mainly to stay out of the limelight and be seen as supportive of their boss. It is a tough role - you get zero credibility if you claim credit for things that are good, but guilt by association if there are failures.

Don’t forget that the Republican have controlled congress for the past two years, passing the least amount of bills for almost ever. All they have been doing is obstructing and bowing to Trump.

The Dems need to retain the Senate and regain Congress and then Kamala can pass her legislation.

WCK has been in Ukraine since the start of the war. He probably took a selfie with Routh while on a visit to Kyiv before Routh got kicked out.
