lol, he didn't try to "overthrow" the government at the previous election. He did the same thing Hillary did in the election before that.
When trump has asked about a third term, it has been jokingly. As far as those pushing for it, I don't think it would pass. If it did though, he would still have to get elected again by the people again. I dunno I just don't see it happening.
Its not disingenuous, you just said yourself "many people don’t know about the years before and the power struggles between oligarchs, riots, and assassination plots..."
And yes I agree, the media fails to give context. I think that's because they (mainstream news for example) are more interested in getting you to take a side, than they are just giving you the information.
Not going to get into it now, but I've personally spoke with so many who have had opinions on it, and its clear they know very little about what has happened there over the past 10 years, and what has led up to the current situation.
I've seen the video multiple times, I still don't think it is an actual Nazi salute. His future of civilization comment (in context with what else he was saying), I don't think was a Nazi comment either. Why? Because he was basically saying the future of our elections and government was going one of two ways. If I'm wrong, time will tell. I'll have to wait and see.
Speaking to those in the USA,
There is much more going on with the Ukraine / Russia war than what the media here told us. Most people make opinions about it, not even realizing that they aren't informed enough about it to have an opinion.
Those first two quotes can both be true.
I said I don't think it was intentional as a Nazi salute, and as I've been saying, time will tell.
Sorry, I don't follow mush and watch all his tweets. I don't know what all he has or has not said. The only thing I have said is that by watching the actual video, I would not have thought it was a Nazi salute. And if it was not, maybe he hasn't said anything because he finds it funny that people are claiming he's a Nazi when he isn't. I have no clue on that last part, just a guess.
Not sure how he is most like Hitler on the whole planet, he's not even the leader of any country. I haven't seen him talk about any particular race being dogs.
If my enemy did one thing, and some says they did something else, I'll speak up and say the truth.
Why are you acting like that towards me? All I did was give my opinion of what I saw, big deal.
It is possible for frozen images from a video to be out of context. It really is. Like I said to someone else, time will tell.
I would be doing it on purpose. I think he did the gesture in the spur of the moment, not meaning for it to look like that. Time will tell.
I'm not a Nazi apologist. If he never does or says another "Nazi" thing again, would you apologize for calling me that?
I'm pretty sure he isn't arguing with people, because he thinks they are ridiculous for saying that's what it was.
fyi, I'm not really a fan of the guy, I just never would have thought it was a Nazi salute (after watching the actual video)
