Bet on that.

Yeah it is so basic you would have thought someone would have tried it sooner.

Yeah, exactly ....

Yep, that was my take too. In other words the voters were conned and a significant number fell for it ... twice.

Yeah you need an independent body to follow him everywhere and arrest him when he breaks the law.

Here we have the RCMP to do that, backed up by the GG and the army.

Whew, wow, never has the US lost a war that fast. I mean Vietnam took ten years to lose, this was just a few weeks.

I guess the other question I would ask is, why did the US voters elect someone with no honour? And you can't tell me that in 2024 they didn't know.

Yes, but when they are really needed is just when you are dealing with people with no honour! You need a system that works even when you have people of bad faith running things. Perhaps one of the roles of the secret service should be to arrest any president who breaks the law?

They can be dismissed too.

Plus, Windows is not safe for use.

Meme explaining Windows, Mac and Linux

Glad that you liked that.

When you download and install a Linux distro you own that copy of it, it is yours. When you install Windows you have a limited licence to use it. You don't own it, it is still theirs.

The next version of Windows you will have to rent by the month, too! It's garbage.

Linux is yours, Windows is theirs.

More importantly:

Oh yeah, the 18th century was a great model for democracy.

Just a thought, but perhaps you need a system more like we have in Canada. Our Prime Minister can be dismissed anytime by the Governor General and if he doesn't want to leave, well she commands the armed forces ....

Best comment of the day!

Apparently the US only ever had pretend "checks and balances". None of them work in real life.

Good idea, I just hope the city has better luck keeping them open than OC Transpo has had!

Yup that is one big advantage, plus in general the culture is pretty respectful and polite, well except the scammers that is!

You still think he will allow midterms???

Looks enthused, too.

In Ottawa that means tulips!

They are still skiiing in Gatineau Park!

Going skiin'?

Out snowfall today was forecast as 2-4 cm, but all we got was 5 mm.

Bluesky is a pretty fun place to be!

You asked: "When will it be enough for my Republican colleagues to grow spines and remove him from office?"

The best current evidence supports: "never".

COVID: 1
Humans: 0

Not statistically, no.

Good thing! Yeah our electric trains and buses here all run on hydro, too.

Even electric-powered transit may have to increase fares, depending on the method of electricity generation!

Good thing. I hope your electricity is not from diesel generators!
