I don't disagree. But I'm pretty sure this was intended to be done on the election year. Don't get me wrong, I will not vote for the orange fuzz ball with a gun to my head. But this could've been done earlier in his term

Thousands. There was a point in time last year or whenever where that number was 100 or 1000 or even 1.

Could've pardoned that person then.

Quick question

Why didn't he do that 3 years ago when he got into office

banana_lama , to politics in Biden camp warns Trump could still get re-elected with ‘unhinged campaign of revenge’

I completely agree that's what I meant by the 3rd party. Those who will refuse to vote for either and I tend to find that more common from those who would've voted Democrat compared to the ones that would've voted Republican

You're forgetting a decent subset. Ones who are informed but would rather vote 3rd party, which due to not having Teddy Roosevelt won't do shit, rather than vote for either of these guys

Oh I didn't own my steam account it was created for my future children. it's a trust.

banana_lama , to Ask Lemmy in If you are a Libertarian and hold liberty as your core value, why do you not believe in universal healthcare? Nothing impacts liberty more than sickness and death.

There's examples that swing both ways of a government being benevolent and self serving. The more likely outcome is the government being self serving. I personally anticipate every government to eventually go that route. For instance Agustus and a few following Roman emperor's had set a good example. But once corruption had set its teeth within the government it became incredibly difficult to be a "good" emperor. Not impossible but discouraged.

So yeah. Just because there's good examples doesn't mean you shouldn't be cautious even in their cases. Enjoy the prosperity and encourage it but do have a Killswitch of sorts just in case

banana_lama , to Political Memes in gotta do it

What are the stakes? A genocidal maniac vs a genocidal maniac?

banana_lama , to Political Memes in gotta do it

I'm voting for someone better. It's an option. They probably won't win tho
