    That’s just a fact. The whole US political system should be scrapped and re-developed to make it a democracy.

        You guys (Americans) need to stop with the personality cults. It was cute and funny when it was sports stars and actors, but it slipped down the slope when it’s dangerous malignant narcissists like Trump and Musk. The attitude is the same, though, stop glorifying other people so much, whether it’s on the left or right. No amount of democracy will fix that loophole for populists.

        Do you have any idea how many rich and powerful people would dream of such power vacuums to take advantage of?

        This comment reads like it was written by the Koch foundation.

      And exactly how peaceful do you think the scrapping of the entire system will be? Will you sign up for the inevitable fight? Or do you just like talking big?

      Anyone with a brain understands that would only bring further pain and death.
