The left wing in the US seem to be trying to get it together in an attempt to hijack the Democratic party. The US version of Momentum, perhaps. One that might be able to succeed, you never know:

Momentum have hijacked the Labour party entirely by getting a few thousand people to vote for a leader millions of non-members deem unacceptable.

 

This looks a much more traditional move to incremental change (if it succeeds) in that corporate democrats will be forced to move left and vote more liberally or face losing their mandate.

 

To me it more resembles the Tea Party approach to moving establishment republicans farther to the right than it does the momentum approach of taking over the asylum.

 

Momentum should have run as a UKIP of the left if they want to keep Labour MPs honest.

One of the points of this is to purge the DP of donations from corporate sponsors though. Would the corporates accept that? I think this might be a more significant change than a matter of just keeping the corporate democrats honest...

Here is Cenk's video about kicking it off. Genuinely think there might be something to this - it's exactly what is needed. Change from the left. Not the fucking right. I very much hope it succeeds and can be replicated.

I genuinely hope he dies. I hope the stress of the job makes his heart explode.

 

When you look at how much it's visibly aged previous presidents, fuck knows what this cunt is gonna look like. The old twat who drinks from the wrong Holy Grail in Indiana Jones will look fresh faced in comparison.

They age under the stress I suspect, but I'm not convinced any of this is phasing Trump... he might simply not care.

President Donald Trump will seek a 20% tax on goods imported from Mexico and use the revenue to build a border wall, the White House spokesman has said.

So it's basically going to be American importers of Mexican goods who pay for the wall, not Mexico.

Just watched the Beeb news at ten. Still feels like we're in a dystopian alternate reality. Utterly surreal with a neat conclusion from Sopel - the presidency hasn't changed trump. Trump is changing the presidency.
