...and the next government will be too cowardly to jail him and take his wealth for public services or community improvement.

Because CLASS POLITICS OUTRANKS HUMAN RIGHTS in the eyes of the ruling classes and anyone with fuck you money.

It's a two tiered plutocracy, not a democracy, and everyone should be upset by that and voting for greens, socialists and progressives.

    Yeah, people rip on Obama for drone strikes but Trump did it more in his first term than Obama and somehow Trump was considered a peaceful president 🤷

    Oh shit, let’s give Obama a free pass because someone did worse later.

    Keep moving them goals, soon you’ll be defending Trump when the next Republican does worse.

    Who said that? Obama deserves his criticism for the drone strikes (and is the first thing you think about when you think about drone strikes) .. and Trump is worse on drone strikes ... yet Trump is seen as a peaceful president (until Iran).

    Follow along. I know it's hard for you.

    Lol. Calm down Edgelord. They're simply pointing out conservative hypocrisy that has led to unbelievably differing standards between the two parties.

    Conservatives don’t give a fuck about drone strikes or kids in cages, those have been leftist critics of Obama.

    Conservatives were outraged over tan suits.

    Does this guy really think he'll live forever? What is he planning to do with all that money once he's dead in a year or two?

    Lol. This is the conservative icon.

    The fact that we haven't driven this shitstain ideology out of our society shows how pathetic this country truly is.

    If south park did a remake of 'the biggest douche in the universe* with Trump I would be soooo happy. Like how we are be in the same species as someone so awful and not run him out of society is a reflection of how things have fallen in the world (in general but one country in particular, sorry and all).

    Unfortunately seems like this sort of ideal is in an upswing these days so things will get worse before better. Though I hope I'm wrong. Know your enemies, Bannon being a huge one, as well as many others trying to drive a wedge to make everyone weaker so they can be powerful.

    Think of what we could accomplish if we worked together as a species rather than seeing what makes us different. If only.... I can hope we learn before it becomes too late but I'm not overly hopefull these days.

    Even worse, he manipulated what would happen in the stock market with tariff threats and other means so he could buy low and sell high and defraud everyone else. Taco and military action are his stock manipulation strategies.

    Trump's handlers made those trades and you can bet they were making the same trades on their own accounts.
