Ok, good point. But then, do his voters know that? There's still time to introduce a substitute – but you're probably right that his ego will stand in the way of even that.
- Not everybody is an American, so it's (possibly) not "your life".
- There are reasons to downvote something other than the first half of a headline. For instance the second half of this headline. I would be very, very careful of assuming that "US voters reject Trump’s agenda". It's not only GOP rhetoric to suspect that MAGA voters can't be bothered to get off their asses if Trump is not himself on the ballot. The situation might be completely different in two years.

That's Tasha Yar. It's a bit weirdly cropped, so I can see why you didn't recognise her.
Ok, here's what is subsidised, assuming you speak German:
Call that nonsense if you wish, I'm not going to enter into a discussion of that kind.
That's not at all how it works in Germany, though. Dental treatments are paid, as is medication. There is a surcharge for medication, which is capped at 10 Euros. And some dental options, which are not strictly necessary (debatable in many cases, I'll give you that!) are not included. Physio and optical costs are also included.
Some of the payments require a doctor's prescription in order to be accepted, but I would call that pretty fucking universal.
I pronounce it the same as other people here: “sock-urh”. I was just confused about the “association” thing, so thanks for clearing that up!
I did provide a link where both the British and the American pronunciation treat the c as an s sound. They have the IPA as /əˌsəʊ.siˈeɪ.ʃən/ for both dialects. "soc" does contain the c, not the t.
As I said, I'm not debating that the t in "tion" is pronounced that way (at least I tried to be clear, maybe I muddled it even more), but I have always pronounced the c as an s sound, and it appears Cambridge agrees with me.
Where is "association" pronounced like that, if I may ask? I could only find the pronunciation I'm familiar with, which is this: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/pronunciation/english/association
To maybe be more clear: you are implying that the c in "soc" is pronounced like a "sh" when it's the t in "tion".
(Edit: missed some letters.)

There are only so many ways to represent the spectrum of light.
Ahh, I see what you mean. Yes, in that regard he was possibly the only true master. I know that this style of layering densities was taught at the time, but I don't think many artists brought it to a comparable level.
