Usually when cognitive decline causes someone to become this kind of a wild liability, their kids reluctantly have "the conversation" and take away their car keys. But no, someone gave this manic dementia patient a soap box instead, and he was able to appeal to enough like-minded followers to get given even greater authority.

It’s going to take them months to find and remove the bugs from this thing.

The ethics behind this this is worrying.

The optics also aren't great. Trump is a proud man, and he's accepting what looks like charity on behalf of the US. Maybe they consider it to be some sort of tribute.

But as someone who is not a fan of trump, but prefer him over harris, I think it would be more constructive to critique the system that gives a President unchecked power, rather then compain against the man who's stomping all over it. The USA elects a dictator for 4 years and i think that's the root of the problem.

I think you guys should consider a parliamentary monarchy like the UK has. King Charle's is already the monarch of a lot of countries.
