You guys voted him in, twice, with the popular vote the second time. Don't pretend you don't own him.

Not an American here, nor a defender of what people did or didn't vote for.

What I was getting at was the massive media manipulation from outside and inside and the obvious foreign control the Dear Leader is under. With the deadly combination of of poor education, widespread media illiteracy and pervasive social media, our democracies have become even more remotely-controllable for whoever is willing to put the money in.

and the obvious foreign control

Yeah, there's no need for this disproven conspiracy theory. Trump is 100% American, which is why they voted him in again. He's just the version too stupid to not say the things out loud.

"Disproven conspiracy"? In light of the multitude of connections between Trump (or his cronies) and the Kremlin that show up in the most recent batch of the Epstein files, I guess we're on the verge of making that a proven conspiracy.

Until then, just looking at Trump's track record is enough to convince me Trump is 100% enacting orders from Moscow. Why else would he

  • withholding and threaten to cut Ukraine off from American military aid.
  • drive a wedge between the US and its former Western allies.
  • give D0GE unfettered access to the government's most sensitive information (including nuclear ones), only to then have Russian IP addresses try to connect?
  • gut USAID, thus putting more pressure on Europe through increasing refugee streams
  • and the ist goes on...

The US is not a democracy. Just like in Russia, the votes are for show.

[–] antonim@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 14 hours ago

Sorry but no. As profoundly unfair and undemocratic the US system is, it's still more democratic than Russia where any serious opposition is literally murdered in broad daylight.

"The votes are for show" – do you mean to say that Trump's victory in 2016, Biden's in 2020 and Trump's again in 2024 were prearranged by the central "powers that be"?
