Well we could hope so I suppose but there's only 3.5 years left so he should get on with it before he runs out of time. It's more likely it will end the same as the first term just politics as usual and in 2028 whoever runs will again tell us there going to fix everything.
You did not hear what I said to you.

Because the Democrats have lowered the standards?
I'm surprised you didn't realize this.
Back to square one then, Harris and the Democrats are scraping the barrel so bad that we can run a Trump against them and he can win while the real presidential candidates can take a vacation until we need them.

It depends where you are in Germany too.
For example, if you are in Berlin you may not be as woke as West Germany but there are exceptions everywhere too.
For example, there are many conservatives in democratic areas or states in America too.
What has this to do with my question.
In germany it is not possible, ( it was in past) that an party or politic person or an rich man could have the influence and power which Trump and Musk have.

This question was to get you to understand that even in your country you have cultural differences just like in many countries.
Then try to imagine the cultural differences between two countries such USA and Germany.

Of course there are cultural differences. But are cultural differences are always an excuse?

They're not excuses. They're facts.
Because of differences people need to reach some kind of middle agreement for both parties and when they can't reach an agreement and are unable to understand each-other and their differences, they go to war.
This is the state of human condition since recorded history.

What has this to do with that what I wrote in my 1st post? I said it seems that 2 individuals are doing everything to encrease their own power and influence. For to reach this they fight against democratie and freedom.
What is this a matter of culture? This you find in every culture! If I am not wrong.

This has to do with how you understand things from your culture , upbringing and education with another person who’s completely different from you.

Many in Europe like what Trump is doing.
Similarly more than half of the people in USA like him enough to vote for him.

I tried to tell you this many times in different ways. I told you “you don’t live in USA”.
If you can’t understand this simple concept then at the negotiating table you won’t understand middle ground.

There are people who at least understand opposing views and reasons for those views and CHOOSE a side and there are people who can’t understand opposing views and simply ARE in a side without understanding.

Sorry, maby my IQ is not sufficient to understand the way how a Mr Trump or Mr Musk are thinking and acting. Also I dont know about their motives behind. But you cant tell me that a strive for Power and influence is an culturel issue. For understand this I dont need to be an american or an south african.

Stephen Miller: Probably the most influential racist you've never heard of in the Donald's administration. These two links are only the tip of the iceberg. Anyone interested in understanding what's going on right now with ICE should look more deeply into this guy.

What would happen if one of the Revelation 14 saints used his heavenly treasure to purchase a Caesar in order to redeem his land and his people to render praise to Jesus?

Joe Biden has made a stirring defense of the use of Autopen saying he made the decision on every single one of the pardons. Though he did admit that no one should expect to find his fingerprints on any of the relevant documents used to make that decision because there were a lot of people involved, nor should they expect that he could actually remember the details on any specific person because they were really looking at categories of crimes for example mass murder through vaccines that were mandated in violation of international law would be a separate category from the "future crimes" division.

Biden admits that he gave verbal cues like nodding to approve these categories to the "whole lot of people" gathered around him screaming for a pardon and that he did not personally approve each individual pardon.

His most lucid moment came when he said he wanted to give all these people pardons because he knew what Trump would do. (Perhaps that was referring to all the people involved in the assassination attempts and the use of lawfare. How dare Trump respond to these things by using the legal system to prosecute criminals for crimes!)

According to the emails, Feldman (Staff secretary Stefanie Feldman or who historians are now referring to as acting president of the US) sought written accounts confirming Biden's oral clemency instructions in "key meetings" with staffers. The trouble is that these accounts appear to have been secondhand and in some cases written up several days after the meetings. It turns out that two advisors in the Whitehouse, Jeffrey Zients and Ed Siskel were the ones who were able to interpret Biden's nods and gibberish and so they were the ones writing the emails (I suppose we could preserve these emails on Fig leaves placed in strategic locations for future wax museum portrayals of the Biden administration).

Democrats have confirmed these meetings with aids as they came pleading for pardons of all their crimes, they also admitted that Biden was far too busy to attend these sessions. Interestingly Zients and Siskel were also not present during these meetings. No need for these two stooges to actually know what went down. Simply follow orders and give the true puppeteer a certain level of deniability.

Meanwhile in completely unrelated news Obama is telling the Democrats to toughen up.

The Whitehouse staff had affectionate nicknames for those who had authority over the autopen, they called them "the poobahs".


When asked about evidence that Biden did not authorize the clemency actions, Trump White House spokesman Harrison Fields told the Times Sunday that Biden "should not be trusted" and that "the truth will come out about who was, in fact, running the country."
