Question for the Brits: what’s deal between Labour and Liberal Democrats? Is there a coalition possibility there?
Very possible, you could also include the SNP (Scottish National Party) in there with them
Very interesting. We’ll see what happens I guess.
If anything Trump is proving everyday how fucking stupid it is to elect someone without any experience in political office. If people wanted a populist “outsider” to shake up the system (whatever you think that means), they’ve (at the every least) picked the wrong person.
Well, the only other person who promised anything like that; didn’t get the nomination. I agree, though, Trump preyed on the peoples’ want for a populist candidate, and if Trump was able to recognize that sentiment; I don’t know why the Hillary campaign couldn’t.
But at this point, arguing about who would’ve won is senseless; because the Trump administration is being shitty right now.
I think the idea that we needed an outsider is a strange premise though. Bernie was a career politician too. And I think there’s an argument to be made that many “populist” policies are unrealistic, at least right now, anyway (and certainly Trump hasn’t done much there). I think the idea of “shaking up the system,” is a bit easier said than done.
