Rockstar is a funny way to spell lunatic douchebag

You know what's the best part? We voted him and people love him, mora than the left at least haha

He's an absolute madlad

This is your brain on personality cult.

Not Argentine, but if anything despite what's portrayed internationally, there is much less personality cult than before which had zero air-time abroad.

I've very mixed feelings and already rue the way some things used to be but it's safer, the shops that are open are better stocked and despite having to carry ridiculous bundles of notes around, it's easier to plan. Not to say that it was all bad before either.

Good luck, my friend

We're doing great here, thanks!

Look at the reports, things are not okay. The Ketuky Experiment is exactly where you are headed.

Edit: Kansas not Kentucky, thank you.

Do you mean the Kansas experiment? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kansas_experiment

If not, I apologize. If so, yeah, it's been proven time after time after time that trickle down economics is complete bullshit.

Yeah the one in 2013 that badly hurt the State and had to be reverted in 2017. A full blown conservative test site and it failed for obvious reasons.

Romania went from loving caucescu to a televised execution in a couple of weeks. Let’s see if he does better.

Every time I see a picture of him, I think that I have seen a similar-looking character in a movie at some point in the past, but nothing comes to mind.

Yeeeaaaah baby

Huh.

I don't think that it's Austin Powers that's triggering it, though, yeah, he does have mutton chops and a lot of hair, there's some similarity there.

The only thing I've come up with before was Gene Wilder in Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory, but while that's also similar in some ways, I still don't think that what I'm dredging out of memory either.

Some British movie.

Yeah you’re not wrong, he’s not as absurd as Austin powers. But he definitely looks like a time traveler from the 70s. I have another actor in mind, can see his face, but also can’t quite pull the name or movie up. But a British guy with sideburns and similar haircut. One of those staple actors of the 50s-70s that my parents would know, but was likely dead before I was born haha.

His tactical-plan is that he won't be accepting any of the consequences of his policies.

You don't improve a country's economic-engine by eradicating education's foundation.

But so long as he''s rich, & his privilege is protected, he can't care what damage is done to his inferiors..

Kinda similar to the ones doing likewise north of there, eh?
