I’ve long held the minimum wage should be pegged to cost of living and inflation reporting and not be voted for each raise to it. This way anytime a business tries to jack prices beyond their added costs, it bites them in the ass.

Hopefully this helps drive a big wedge between Israel and the US. Lets stop giving them any weapons and aid. Tired of my tax dollars supporting a rich country dead set on genocide. Israel can handle their own affairs.

This moron can’t stop running his mouth. A person like this can’t handle diplomacy - his fragile egomania will always get in the way.

I meant this specific interview being used as an example to “prove their case.”

This is some real pull the ladder up behind you thinking.

Who wants to bet they use this as an example to justify their categorizing The View as a news show to force their interpretation of the equal time rules.

Yeah, The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is known for not being extreme. Lmfao! Surely this isn’t Trump trying desperately to justify his attempt to retroactively TACO the war.

It’s so fun to pick up the slack for workloads left from mass layoffs - come on guys.

I’m convinced Trump and Project 2025 are trying to destroy the US - not just weaken the administrative state. This type of bull shit hurts our ability to compete globally and corporations benefit from that hugely. Either they don’t understand they are shooting themselves in the foot, or they want to cripple the American economy long term.

I had a friend who went hard into that. Every argument she made was patently ridiculous and easy to disprove. Never will get how people can look at these poorly organized and inefficient human organizations we live in and assume somehow a conspiracy as vast and complex as a flat earth would be able to be perpetrated so convincingly.

Unitary executive theory has been being practiced and pushed to overstep presidential powers since the Reagan administration. The checks and balances aren’t sufficient. It’s not just the right wing take over - it’s the whole structure is antiquated and too vulnerable to this type of manipulation.

The executive branch needs to be restructured. Too much power is concentrated there.

I’d have been more impressed if this was a recent quote.

So lets bomb reddit with ludicrously silly information so AI becomes unusable. The ultimate troll. So dumb anybody will question it, not parallel enough to the truth it becomes conspiracy.

I think that concentrating too much wealth / power into a person’s hands affects their mental health. The stuff billionaires focus on behind closed doors would be considered psychosis in a homeless person, but they articulate it on fancy stages and suddenly it’s normalized. Power and money control needs to be as decentralized as possible. Even if it means things move slower, it’s better than unilateral power in the hands of a small group of malignant narcissists surrounded by sycophants.

To the last point, I don’t think he has anything on Trump to make him start the war. Trump is a dumb malignant Narcissist with age related cognitive decline. It’s really easy to manipulate him with flattery and bribes. I think it’s far more likely Bebe played to his ego about strength and promised some way to cut the Trump organization in on a scam to make money off the situation. That’s why when Bebe pressed him too hard last time he cut him out in the cold and is making this deal with Iran alone. Trump sees the political consequence, and Trump is Trump first at all times. He demands loyalty, but returns it only when convenient.

Look at his profile - he is a troll - don’t waste your time.

Let Benny go on with his war crimes and hopefully the Don-orangutan has a hissy fit and cuts all aid to Israel. Tired of my taxes going to that fucking bullshit. Israel has plenty of its own money - we don’t need to send it aid.

Thanks for the nonsensical statement without explanation.

It’s not complicated. You want Trump’s support - kiss his ass and give him money. He’s a crooked transactional narcissist. Nothing else matters to him.
