Veteran 60 Minutes anchor Scott Pelley reported on Donald Trump’s efforts to strong-arm some of the country’s top law firms into doing his bidding on Sunday night’s episode of the embattled CBS newsmagazine.
Pelley’s segment pulled no punches in describing Trump’s efforts and reminding viewers that Trump is the “first felon” ever to sit in the Oval Office.
Well, you claimed a shitshow was given from biden and Obama.
From the perspective of me as a non-American reading american news and media that statement was simply incorrect.
That’s all.
Okay admittedly that wasn’t as clear as it could’ve been but I meant shitshow in terms of viability as a democratic society, so for example democratic norms, rule of law. separation of power and public faith in democratic institutions. Obama and especially Biden left those in shambles, which is why Trump has been able to get as far as he did.
It’s useless man, people are just looking at their finances and their fake freedoms (I can choose between McDonald’s and Popeye what to eat!!! Muh freedom!!!) to understand that they’ve lost their actual freedoms with the patriot act and a series of sweeping changes to the rule of law due to the “war on terror” the USA have brought on since the start of the 2000s. Before that it was an all out attack against economic freedoms, starting with the cancellation of the differentiation between investment and saving banks until the loss in regulations against malpractices brought forward by corporations.
The best slave is the one who think he is free because he won’t fight back under no circumstances. They cannot see any chains on their wrists but are unable to see the (always shorter) leash around their neck. And they would die defending their masters, thinking to be fighting the good fight.
We can just try to present our position as clearly as possible, we could be opening the eyes of someone reading our comments and that’s all that matter.
Keep on keeping on dude
