Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

It's funny how trumpers say that zelensky cancelled elections.
It's written in their constitution that elections can't be held while this war is being waged.
trumpers want zelensky to go against his countries constitution.
I guess trumpers figure that constitutions are meant to be ignored so they expect zelensky to act the dictator like trump and Putin would.

This is actually a problem driving some of the miscommunication that allows trump his power, the fact that education regarding our political system and our constitution is woefully inadequate. We don't teach these things the way we really should. Just like driving we rely on parents and, in this case, the media to teach our children. And we can see how that has ****ed up everyone's ability to drive. It's also ****ed up everyone's understanding of civics.

USA have no recent memory even of war on their own grounds so some people not realizing it's implications makes kinda sense. That said, it's almost basic common sense to understand how impossible is to have fair elections in a nation under war.

No. It is not written into their constitution that elections cannot be held while this war is raging. What is written in the Ukrainian Constitution is that martial law suspends elections, and Zelensky has declared martial law which effectively makes him dictator of Ukraine.

While I believe Trump can be petty and I don't take is word on much of anything, I do think Marco Rubio is a straight shooter. Rubio has said Zelensky is a problem. He said that he sat down with Zelensky to plan a way forward for how to end the war, and in those talk the subject of security guarantees was brought up along with investment in their country. Zelensky said that he needed to run the proposals by his legislative branch as we do in the US, and Rubio said great. Then Zelensky went to the Ukrainian legislature announcing how the Americans were demanding a mining deal and he told America to pound sand. Then details were mailed off to the press who ate it up.

Marco Rubio said Zelensky made a lot of it up and Zelensky never told anyone in the US delegation to pound sand. Marco Rubio said Zelensky's actions are making it impossible to work with Ukraine.

Americans have virtually no concept of war. We've never had a foreign war on our own soil, and most people don't count that anyway since it was long enough ago no one can fathom it. And even our understanding of the world wars are tainted by the period of severe prosperity that followed it that many Americans view as the "golden age" when white people ruled supreme and "a Christmas story" was a glimpse of nostalgic Americana. So it's easy to convince them that war is just something we win and just makes things better for all the white people in the long run. So no, the vast majority of Americans have no clue what war really means or how severe the consequences can be.

The point is free and fair elections can happen even in a time of war.

Zelensky has made himself dictator of Ukraine via a declaration of martial law. I believe Marco Rubio when he says Zelensky is a liar and working counter to ending the war in Ukraine.

Did you read this on Facebook?

We’re one of the younger countries on the planet, have lost more wars than won, and haven’t fought a justified one since WW2.

Like a tween telling adults how the world works.
