Wait can Musk even run?
no
yea thought so
ya, he can't
<- not from the US so..
Musk isn’t native born citizen
Rip
yea
Well, if you're not from the US but your parents both are natural-born citizens, then you can still run
because that makes you a natural-born citizen
Is Ocasio Cortez American born?
oh ok
e.g. John McCain was born in Panama and Ted Cruz was born in Canada
but Musk's parents are South African and Canadian
Yeah, Ocasio-Cortez was born in the Bronx
and he has triple citizenship
she can't run for like 7 more years, during which she'll fade into obscurity
^^We hope
It is great we are getting more populists.... but is it a false populist or real populist.
That is our issue now.
All politicians are liars
they say what wants to be heard
to get votes
there is no "side" to populism
You can only have liars, or actual populists
then they do nothing when they get in and the cycle continues
Populist = People Representative or Elite.
So then, Endangered, if someone does something in a government office, they are by definition not a politician?
do you mean they are a politician?
I have yet to see a representative with a career in politics actually perform exactly as they promised during their campaigns
They make impossible claims to hype themselves up in peoples' minds to get votes, then they get in, diddle around for a term and then do something cool to get back in for the next term
and people vote because "we'll get em next time"
No fucking honour in the Women's March and associated movements.
So, if a politician does not perform exactly as they said they would on campaign, they are not to be respected?
If they fail to uphold important promises that they made, no they are not
I think it kinda depends on what changes
and how
especially if they use those promises to get re-elected saying, "we can get it done if you give me another term"
e.g. I don't think anyone will be upset when The Wall turns out to be a great number of partial and complete barriers of all shapes and sizes and other security devices, to the same effect of a great wall.
@EndangeredProdigy My State's governor just got re-elected on that.
