Let me start by saying that she is the best choice for a president, but am I the only one who started to think that she will pull a Macron move once she guarantee the power and start to apply right wing policies?

:yawn: loaded questions are so boring
If you really want an honest answer you have to rephrase the question into a format possible to answer

You're going to find out soon.

And I mean if she does a right-wing move by French standards, wouldn't that be considered socialist and far-left in the USA?

As opposed to the guy who said he wants to be a dictator on day one?

Can always just google her voting record from her stint in the US Senate.

You blyats really out in force of late.

The only "right wing" policy I see her implementing is the border control compromise bill if that gets passed.

I think continued support of Israel is up in the air due to the election being close and AIPAC making it an issue.

Looking at a lot of her new domestic policy goals, I expect a lot of the effort will go into either reducing cost of living for millennials or increasing salaries.

I'm not expecting a revolution, but I don't think they'll get any worse.

Is this Russian psyop? What warrants that fear of yours? I suppose I'm as scared of that as I am getting bit by a shark in Idaho - it's technically possible but extremely unlikely.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 5 months ago

Yes this is Russian psyop,we call this Operation Lemmytless.

What made me ask this question is her interview which she said in that she will shoot anyone who enter her house.

That made me think about her values.

In my opinion, no one currently know for sure what she will do once she get the power.

But the thing I know for sure is that she is the best candidate currently.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

no, there's zero reason to worry about that.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

I'm more worried about third party candidates pulling a macron. They typically have much less history to point to for consistency in policies, they have already received GOP aid, and Jill Stein.....

Left wing coalition brought him to power and he appointed a right wing prime minister.

[–] JubilantJaguar 4 points 5 months ago

Small correction. No coalition "brought him to power", he was already in power. A left-wing coalition came first in a parliamentary election but without an actual majority. He declined to appoint its representative as PM. So instead of an unstable leftist government that can't get anything done, there will now be an unstable centre-right one that can't get anything done.
