Staying quiet because it will make daddy angry to talk about it is still abuse.
Okay, fair point. What I mean is, don't bring it up unless the toddler starts talking about it again. Stupid of CNN to bring it up again for no reason.
It's a little stupid to bring this up. You have to treat the Trump administration like toddlers, ie. when they ask for something, you just have to be firm, ignore it, and wait for it to go away. Raising the topic again will just make your toddler throw another tantrum.
I get that he was asked this by a member of the media, but nobody should be talking about this. You just have to change the topic - again, exactly the same way you deal with toddlers.
German car companies lobby to oppose the EU's 2035 ban on the sale of combustion engines cars.
The effect is very similar though. Ultimately, lobbying is most beneficial for interests that are entrenched and/or extremely wealthy. The only difference is the way that they approach it. Bribery is a very narrow means to supporting your cause, but lobbying is much more vague and difficult to define.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: presidential systems suck. I'm not an expert on Polish politics, but it seems at the very least like the Poles were given a good choice of a candidate. Still, having too many people voting for a single candidate for a single office repeatedly leads to bad outcomes. France, Turkiye, USA - now we can add Poland to the list too.
Abolish presidencies! Embrace parliamentary systems!
Agreed. Incumbents always do worse in the next election. Makes me shudder to think what the result of the next election is going to be. Trudeau's latest term was really bad and they got no punishment for it whatsoever thanks to the gift from the south. And Canada seems to be moving further and further away from proportional representation. So who will voters swing to next election?
Great result for today's Canadians. Terrifying result for future Canadians.
