Yes it happenend before in Germany .The answer is actually 42 ! 42 Years ago the “Liberals” walked out of a coalition with the social democrats..There were issues among others about deploying US midrange missiles..
Huge fan of the work you do Tom. Kudos here from Germany. Was especially hot for this podcast but then Dexter didn’t want to talk about “Scheiß” germany.So sad so sad .. .lol After 82 we got 16 Years of “Birne” as we called him which woul be pear in english , cause of his physical form ..it is also commonly used for head and lightbulb so for years there could be made many jokes and so they where , not ever once did he ever sue anyone for insult in all those years and there where many believe me unlike e.g. Robert Habeck Minister of Economy who collected allready 800 some filed complaints .This all probably doesn’t belong here , but to wrap it up quickly in 88/89 Kohl was done he would have lost the election in 1990 but the Wall fell and we had to endure another 8 Years in which he fostered a child named Angela which would take up the reign only a few years later
I’m glad you put it here. I’m always happy to hear what people have to say on this. I will cover Germany in more depth going forward. Promise.
In the rust belt states across the board + NEV + ARI senatorial races … there were still statistical trend anomalies that fall well outside the realm of “statistically probable error \ abnormality” . We have a number of races in those jurisdictions where the gaps between them and how typical bell weathers for those jurisdictions + the general “trump +4-6 over polls” + general demographic trends in similar urban areas is too large to be anything other than stuffed ballots.
America has ALWAYS been 60\40 Red … when it comes to core cultural values.
This has been proven through “sentiment” social trends polls for years.
It has ZERO to do with Trump. All any GOP leader and the party has ever had to do is jut A) stay on message B) deliver on those values occasionally ( which they haven’t ) C) point out how the blue team does not share those values regularly and D) MAKE SURE THE VOTE IS LEGIT BY NOT LETTING THE DEMS GET AWAY WITH THEIR FUCKERY!
It has always been THAT simple.
Regards RonD as the 2028 GOP presidential nominee … he’s going to have a tough time leap frogging LD Vance as long as Trump V 2.0 does a reasonable job of delivering. HeavyD may have to wait to 2032 at the earliest ( after a failed JD run ) to win the GOP nomination and have his run.
Perhaps the Israel stuff is overblown. Zionists are still powerful in US politics, so they are needed to accomplish policy objectives. But zionism is really only a thing because it was supported by the British Empire. Which is extremely important since Britain was the worlds most powerful empire. Palestine was controlled by the UK, and thus the State of Israel was created. Now that UK power is waning and almost finished, Israeli influence might not be such an important factor in the world in the future. As you have told us, American foreign policy is downstream from the UK. Maybe the smarter Jews are distancing themselves from zionism, because they see the writing on the wall and they don’t believe in this religious fanaticism.
