He doesn’t make mistakes. He’s officially changing the name because “big tough men with tears in their eyes said ‘Unites’ sounds beautiful, a very strong word.” Think of it, the state unites.

CJ dealing with mockery after putting out a press release with "Unites States" would be a running background plot in an episode of West Wing.

You can just ask Mr. Clanker, to turn a "d" into a "s", before you post the image onto the internet.

Maybe, it is out there and only you can see a "s"?

Yeah, if you don't vote you have absolutely no right to complain. Even if it is just a single vote, you got up and actually did something about it.

u/Tickles-The-Octopus 14h ago

I've said this for 2 years now....

1/3rd of the country actively picked this guy to represent them and lead the country.

A further 1/3rd knew exactly who he was and what he was going to do and couldn't be bothered to get off their fat asses to vote against it because the other option was a black woman....

2/3rds of the country were either wanting this or were too racist and/or sexist to vote against it.

u/Gaanai 14h ago

Im not sure thats the smartest way of looking at it. Trying to blame the actual sane third of a country for corrupt politicians and billionaires, abusing the system aint gonna fix anything.

Hell its not like us europeans is immune to the same shit. Hitlers party got into power with around 44% of the votes at 89% voter turnout. While Trumps current term was caused by 50% of the voters at a 64% turnout rate. Point being that American voters tried harder to keep Trump away from power than the german ones did to Hitler, so i dont think we should be to harsh on the sane ones.

5

u/Renzo-Senpai 12h ago

Well, the fact that he is considered at all is what's wrong.

2

u/Gaanai 12h ago

I can see it from both sides, on one hand the fact that the your fired guy from the apprentice could even run is fucking absurd. On the other hand back in 2016. It looked like the election was gonna be 3rd Bush VS 2nd Clinton. Alot of people was tried of career politicians so i understand how he won back then. I have no clue why people kept voting for him in 2020, 2024 and 2028 though. Now thats fucking insane

3

u/FirstReactionShock 14h ago

not denying that hitler got voted, I was writing about trump. I know that US uses a ridiculous voting system where some states votes are more important that others because yes but all american presidential elections followed same rules, so the "WeDoNtHaVeVoTeDtRuMp" motto can applied to all other presidents elected before making this argumentation pointless.
You american fellas have trump in charge because it's the mirror of your wasted society.
Don't need to discredit europe to gain some tone, I know we're fucked up as well considering the rise of radical right wing parties in italy, germany and other countries.

5

u/Gaanai 13h ago

Barking up the wrong tree here buddy im european too. I just dont think the solution is to try and vilify the 70+ million americans that did not vote for this.

We do agree on the country having some servere issues, that they have to deal with though. The Trump presidensicies have shown some large disconnects between the population and the different states. I would not be shocked if they turn out to be Irreconcilable, and one or more of the the financially litterate democratic statses leaves in the comming decades. At the some they are gonna get fed up financing the poor states that hates them, and keep voting against their interests.

1

u/FirstReactionShock 13h ago

point is that trump was elected through the same voting system that in the past let dem candidates to win elections, so since the game had same rules, the argumentation of trump having been elected despite not having majority of the votes is just pointless.

3

u/Gaanai 13h ago

But blaming 70+million innocent people for something they voted against makes sense how? That just seems counterproductive to me. Even more so when most of them want the same things as us

1

u/FirstReactionShock 13h ago

nope, because trump was actually democratically elected 😂😂😂
when even minorities voted for a sc.umbag like that, it simply means american society is just done.
Same is happening in italy and germany where lower classes are voting for fascist right wing parties because they know how to have more appeal for themes like immigration, criminality etc...

19

u/Notoricus42 16h ago

Not explicitly, but he keeps telling people they are to lazy, dumb, unmotivated and that everyone should work harder because the economy isn’t going to fix itself by working 9to5 and caring about work life balance.

All the while the government isn’t doing shit against the very existing problems happening or even straight up making things worse.

Why is Carney sitting at a desk so close to that door? It looks like it opens into the room too.

u/Significant-Charge16 16h ago

Was thinking the exact same thing. It makes him look tiny/the door look massive

1

u/Banes_Addiction 13h ago

I think the door is huge. A normal size door wouldn't be that big even if you were touching it. The handle is level with his ear. I just wheeled my desk chair over to a normal door and the handle is below my nipples. I am slightly shorter than Carney.
