RE: Tim Pool Says Trump MUST Win 2024 Or Else All Is Lost
Take it from a US-loving Argentinean: he is absolutely right. I can see it all the way from down here. At the start of the 20th century, the US and Argentina were competingt head to head for the number #1 spot as the most prosperous nation in the world. Then in the 40s we made a hard turn to the left with the emergence of "Peronismo", a populist movement with Socialist tendencies which consisted in basically giving people everything they wanted so that they would keep voting Peronism. We never recovered, because they got people used to the idea that they had a right to demand both the government and successful people gave them money, and productivity went down the drain. 80 years later, we haven't recovered, because CULTURE and WORK ETHIC are lost.
Socialism is like a drug both for the politician and for the citizen: once politicians start promising free stuff to people, they can't stop. Even if they know it's not sustainable, they can't stop, because they need people to continue voting for them. And the politicians who do know that the problem is in giving away "free" stuff can't run on the promise of cutting back on that, because of course too many people won't vote for them.
Americans: Trump doesn't need to win. You and your children need Trump (or Desantis) to win. Otherwise, your country is done. For real.
