    But what about the shareholders? Isn’t Trump supposed to be good for the economy? Why did eggs keep getting more expensive?

    The people in the back will have years to notice this shit, and they still won’t.

      How else are we going to ‘other’ them into the same group with minorities like the Nazi’s did, then justify another holocaust? Keep your eyes open for the next disaster and how it’s the LGTBQ+ community’s fault.

    Nevermind. When Putin became a president in 1999, there were also apartment bombings in Moscow and other cities. There was a version that it was not the terrorists who did it, but the secret services, in order to increase Putin’s rating, who said “to defeat the terrorists” (and that this was the reason for the start of the Second Chechen War).

    I would not be surprised if Trump will use this catastrophe for PR.

      That Yeltsin then may have had something to do with organized crime, that Putin (as well as the Russian so-called “special services”, which benefit from them)

        By the way, back then, in 1996, there were fair elections in Russia (at least, that’s what they were called), but in the end, Yeltsin began to look for a “successor” (apparently, at the behest of a narrow circle of his “family”, the oligarchs), which was unexpected for everyone, in order to protect himself from criminal prosecution, in case the new president wanted to put him in jail.

        Then, as eyewitnesses say, these people found Putin, instructed him to carry out to collect all the assets of the Soviet Union around the world, and after that was done, a meeting was held in the person of 5 oligarchs, who at the end patted him on the shoulder and said “you’re a good enough guy for us”.

        Putin kept his word, gave Yeltsin and his family immunity.

        I personally think that Yeltsin and Putin were essentially the same people (Putin simply continued Yeltsin’s work of plundering the country), it’s just that Yeltsin was used by the KGB to transfer power, and Putin had already “secured” this position for himself.

      First it’s “too soon” and then it’s “why are you bringing up ancient history”

        Don’t worry, it will be “too soon” all the time after the regular plane crashes that are going to happen now that Trump has fired a bunch of FAA employees.

        Just like it’s always too soon to talk about gun regulations after every school shooting when they happen every other day.

        I hate the guy. He’s the Antichrist.

        But holy shit. People are jumping on bodies for a headline.

        Nobody knows why or what yet.

        If you’ll kindly have a glance at my comment history you’ll note I mock him regularly.

        I mocked his “helicopter go up, helicopter go down”

        He’s a fucking fascist and so is every R.

        I just thought the headline was a tad … Insensitive, disrespectful. Not to him. To the bodies. To the lives lost.

        Anyway.

      Maybe you should have told Trump that considering he got in front of the country today and started pointing fingers at people who had nothing to do with the crash but were convenient scapegoats.
