@futurebird Or he could have imagined it happened. Obviously, the man who ended nineteen wars in the first forty-five hours of his term deserves a huge prize, very significant, and who better to award him for his great service than the people he's helped the most?
A few late nights preening before Fox Nooz, a couple hits of Ritalin, and bing bang zoom, they already told him it's being delivered.
@futurebird They're still packing up the very significant prize, they'll be along soon

Liam Byrne has a good line on populism:

'Populism today is not simply a movement of grievance. It is a venture, with investors and revenue models. It thrives on the same forces that have reshaped global finance: speed, scale, opacity and the monetising of volatility....

[And] they are incentivised to keep countries in a permanent state of agitation. When volatility becomes the product, calm becomes the enemy'!

Populism is essentially disaster capitalism

Needless to say, this constantly shifting rhetoric has zero to do with nuanced calculations about international relations and everything to do with Trump frantically scrambling for whatever rhetoric makes him look dominant and in charge on a second-by-second basis.
@catsalad Success!
Now this is the way to write this headline:

Trump calls voting by mail ‘cheating’ just days after voting by mail

President called practice ‘mail-in cheating’ at Monday event after voting in Florida House race via mail
