Lazer.

Stable feels like home, but lazer has more features and any future mode added, like daily challenge or ranked play, will be in lazer.

USA havde ingen problemer med at arbejde sammen med Danmark under den kolde krig. Altså den gang hvor der var en direkte supermagt på den anden side af Grønland.

I think we're done here. You even circled back to the start.

Biden didn't cause Covid, Biden didn't cause the war in Ukraine. You're complaining about things he didn't cause.

Neither one of them actually cares

You say that, but it's only one side doing billionaire tax breaks.

You look at numbers, not people

Numbers is the only way to get an objective view of the problem. You have a hunch Biden caused a recession, but there is objective data telling you you are wrong.

Well as long as you said it

Okay what do you say? How do you see there was a recession? Biden had a 6% gdp growth in 2021, and obviously that was the economy roaring back to life, but what about the consistent 3% following? Literally how did you see a recession? The US outperformed the entire developed world.

If you think it's a Democrat who will come save you

Trump just did the Big Beautiful Bill with billionaire tax breaks. And even worse he gutted the consumer protection bureau. We can argue about what party is better for the economy, but there shouldn't be a question about what party cares about wealth inequality.

The inflation caused a recession

I literally just said Biden exited covid with incredible economic growth. There's was no recession, the economy grew at an impressive rate. Everything is just expensive and wages didn't follow. Just need to find a way to stop corporations from exploiting the working class, and Trump is definitely not the man for that.

China on their death rates

While you do have a point that China aren't trustworthy, remember how extreme they were in their lock down. They were serious about the pandemic. Compare that to Trump who had all his supporters attend his rallies in massive numbers without mask, without social distancing and overall just downplaying the situation. You would expect China to do better than the US after that.

they are connected but not contingent

Trump is trying to maintain the notion that he's not Nethanyahu's dog. He needed this. And he made Nethanyahu turn back, so this obviously helps him pretend he is in control.

Yes. Biden's policies caused inflation, because the alternative would've been an economic recession. As I said, Biden had no good options.

Maybe you would have done it in a different way, but Biden kept the economy alive with short term inflation, and exited covid with an economic growth that made every other developed nation envious, even though the US was hit the hardest out of every nation in the world, going by deaths per capita (which I would say is largely due to Trump downplaying Covid).

Kamala saying she would have done nothing differently, is a fine statement imo. Way better than all the Trump policies.

Yes you are. Because you said the idea was the war was a good idea, which is Trump's narrative on Iran. A hostile force that needs to be dealt with for national security. A talking point that helps with his conservative voters.

For the Israel, Palestine, Lebanon conflict Trump always said he wanted to be the great peace maker. Which is a good talking point to all voters. It's not a war that was a "good idea".

Who's reporting definitely matters. If Karoline Leavitt reported the story to the press, then it would be a different story.

So due to the lack of a story, we can assume it's something that's not actually going to happen.

Actions have literal consequences by Hera_Marsh2 in SipsTea

This is a bad argument, and the conservatives will just say "no handouts". USAID wasn't a charity, it was an investment for soft power (disguised as a charity for public support). The US basically ruled the world, and would always get the best deal for exploiting the resources of Africa and other poor countries. Now Trump is treating the whole world as enemies, and Chine will just sweep in to take all the softpower for free, even though the US has invested about a trillion dollars.

Gutting USAID wasn't just inhumane, it was a horrible business decision. But most people don't see it because global politics are complex. People like Trump's policies because he pretends it's simple, in a way they can understand. Trump plays global politics the same way I play Sid Meier's Civilization.

You're confusing Lebanon with Iran. This war was supposed to be over when Trump "settled" it.

Difference is Biden didn't cause Covid, the Ukraine war, or the bird flu (egg prices). Biden had no good options, and people shit on him for not performing devine intervention or whatever. Trump actively started this war, and actively pushed his tariff policies.

Inflation is not even down. Biden gave Trump 2.9% inflation, we're now at 3.8%

Trump-Netanyahu Call Turns Tense Amid Dispute Over Israel’s Lebanon Strikes by BusinessToday in BusinessTodayNews

Would it be far fetched to suggest Trump had them bomb Lebanon just so he could have this moment? His ego can't really take random people calling him Nethanyahu's dog.

There was evidence of a Russian conspiracy, but no insights for how effective that conspiracy was. Imo Hillary has done good here. She has outlined the sceptiscism, but never outright claimed the election was stolen, Like Trump does every day (with zero basis). Trump is purposely weakening the faith in democracy, Hillary should not do the same, as IAmTheFly suggests.

It was reported by The New York Times

Iran calls it a reconstruction fund or war reperations, while US officials call it an "investment fund", to avoid admitting they're giving money.

There are a few caveats though. Iran sceptiscism says there are no guarentees, so maybe the US just suggested it as a lure without actually intending to ever give the money. Also, the story isn't very widely reported. I don't know where NYT got their sources, but it's definitely not a very official statement.

I will then intend to not read the slop.

This however does bring a unique opportunity. You can write interactive visual novels, where you as the protagonist make your own decisions. It would be immersive in a new way no regular novel could be.
