In the end the Eagles will come together with their falcon and raptor friends.

Speaking of which, if Trump does get elected, Germany and most of the rest of NATO are going to be on his shit list for failing to contribute enough. 1.2% GDP on military spending is not going to fly with a Trump administration.

His 'foriegn policy speech' was full of contradictions, so, what exactly he is actually going to do is a huge questionmark still.

isn't it obvious

if/when he gets to power, he will go full Putin and eliminate all obstacles on his path of power, like a true King of Eternal Dark'ness.

and there will be people to support him, because they already do support him using all kinds of underhanded rhetorical tricks on his opponents in debates with his only defence being literally "I'm using underhanded tactics, because they give me more chances to win, and I'm telling you that in your faces, because I know you want me to win against the system at any cost"

foreign policy will be a very low concern for him in his first 8 years of Presidency overall, but he'll most likely abandon the remaining Light Posts of Europe due to their friendly attitude towards foreigners

If he gets elected president. the first thing he'll do is sell the US to a Chinese billionaire, doubling his own capital. The second thing he'll do is retire to the Bahamas with lots of Hula girls.

Sergarr, London is not occupied by Russian Oligarchs, Russian Oligarchs are absorbed by London, they are become one with the network

In other news the German Minister of Justice, Heiko Maas, was chased off-stage by an angry mob yesterday. The crowd, presumably AfD supporters, repeatedly shouted "traitor", "traitor to the people", "leftist rat", "we are the people", and so on.

Heiko Maas, the German Minister of Justice, was unable to finish his Labor Day celebration speech on the 1st of May as he was loudly booed and chased off the stage by the German people. The people repeatedly shouted "traitor", "leftist rat", "get out!", "we are the people" and "Maas must go!", eventually getting him to cancel his speech and flee to his armored Mercedes escorted by his armed bodyguards.

At this point I want to proclaim publicly that I, though being part of "the German people", did not take part in this act nor do I approve of it.
He may do stuff I do not approve of either, but I'd hardly call him a "leftist rat" or a "traitor" (which is a term I am wary of either way, given that I do not feel allegiance between us in either direction).

Not to speak of how I believe that calling these protesters "the German people" is as inaccurate as calling the Black Block on other demonstrations on the same day "the German people".

Whoever wrote that obviously is trying to pretend these people are a majority in Germany. They're not.

[Sheb]

It's zerohedge. It's like Less Famous Breitbart.

[Loud Whispers]

Antsan that's basic bitch rhetoric like the people's party or the democratic party, are you gonna do this every time politicians and their ilk describe themselves in ways that are not accurate, for if so we shall be tangoing to this tune in perpetuity - politicians and their ilk often fear describing themselves honestly lest they deprive themselves of political momentum

[Antsan]

Yeah, you're right.

[Loud Whispers]

Well it's more that you're right, and you're probably going to always be right on this

Political semantics is just as enjoyable as acid eyewash

[Sinistar]

More entertaining alt history than if Rome didn't fall- what if Stefan Uroš IV Dušan didn't die in 1355?

YES.
My life.
Now complete.


Also, related to EU thread: "Greenpeace leaks TTIP info, in (un)related news TTIP to probably be terminated."

[Loud Whispers]

Holy shit, Greenpeace actually doing something? And opposing the great harmony? WHAT IS HAPPENING?

[Antioch]

Good.

The ISDS is seriously the worst part about TTIP btw. It will decrease the power of democratically elected governments in favour of the huge multinationals. It will stifle all further lawmaking that has even a remote chance of "hurting" a business.

[Loud Whispers]

Powerful democracy is not desired
