This is just hopeium. Musk owns Trump, and Trump—being a fake billionaire—relies on financial backing from fascist tech bros.

Trump has never had real power. His strongman act is just a cover for his fragile ego.

The only thing that could break his ties with Musk and the “Broligarchs” is if the American people turn on him out of anger or disillusionment. But even then, it wouldn’t be about principles—just money shifting elsewhere. Under pressure, Trump would likely turn on his own backers to save himself.

While Merz’s move might not have any immediate impact on the polls - since the CDU is currently leading - it will soon create a much bigger problem: no party across the democratic spectrum will be willing to form a coalition with him.

He may win over some radicals and see a temporary boost (or no negative impact) in the polls, which will likely lead him to believe he’s on the right track. But in the long run, he’s undermining his own trustworthiness.

Imagine being in a coalition with him, and then he starts pushing radical policies that have no support from his partners or the democratic parties. He’ll likely work with the far righters of AfD.

That’s a person you simply can’t trust or work with. The CDU may still win the election, but Merz has effectively destroyed his chances of becoming Chancellor.

His only remaining path to power would be through a power-hungry, partisan approach that prioritizes politics over the country’s well-being and democracy - ultimately paving the way for working with the AfD, which would be disastrous for Germany’s democratic foundations.

At this point, he became Germany’s version of Trump.

Seriously. Americans act like scared puppies, barking but backing down when facing an inbred orange pomeranian.

The people have the power. Organize statewide protests, block roads, and mobilize the working class to stand against fascism. Be more like the French citoyens.

Stop waiting for someone else to save your asses. This is 2016 all over again, when you pinned your hopes on Mueller or some other investigator. No one is coming.

Stop whining. Take action. Fight fascism.

Musk has been in regular contact with Putin over the past couple of years. Its fair to say he serves as a "useful idiot" for Putin, much like Trump.

The EU has strict content moderation laws that Twitter currently violates, which Elon explicitly ignores. The EU could take actions based on the same principles that Brazil did.

Privatization means getting rid of Obamacare/ACA. Trump and GOP see that as socialised health care and have "concepts" to replace them.

Fortunately for them, Republicans will inherit a healthy economy from Biden, which will eventually lead to decreased inflation and lower prices, so all the voters will continue supporting Trump and his bullies.

Repeating the problem wont make it go away either.

Yet here we are after Trump's awful first presidency and after he tried to overthrow the government. It’s all because we are giving him more attention than he deserves.

We should stop posting about Trump and his group of extraordinary morons.

The news cycle thrives on Trump, as every decision he makes manages to anger half the population, while the other half cheers him on simply to annoy liberals and progressives. This dynamic generates more clicks and ad revenue for news outlets, allowing Trump to continue making foolish decisions just to remain in the spotlight.

The only way to change this is to stop giving him space in the news.

There should be a petition to vote for banning Twitter in the EU. It's time we take a step against US Oligarchs and their election interference

For all of their managers, right? Right?

Come on, people here need to read the article and not just headlines:

"I don't know what exactly happened, because if we knew, we would have helped him. But the speed and, above all, this late braking, and then he goes left or right... in these last few years he tried but it was no longer there, the killer instinct was gone."

And further

"[The timing] was related to a variety of factors and obligations," he explained. "He was informed, and the worthy farewell performance was, I think, the fastest lap."

"That still showed what potential he has, not continuously and not at the level that would have justified him coming to Red Bull Racing, but that was an impeccable performance."
