- threecheese 16d agoThis is a flagrant mischaracterization and you should be ashamed. They even issued a retraction: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5SZYz7lZRRI https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5SZYz7lZRRI

- pmkary 16d agoThis was just great... It was so real I couldn't really distinguish the scenes with animate scenes that were clearly CGI from reality.
- belorn 16d agoIt would be good if future elected politicians would choose to remove the president power to starting wars or killing people in special military operations. I am reminded of this 13 year old rap news video being very prophetic, including mentioning bombing Iran. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpMPu5p_QXU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpMPu5p_QXU
- skeledrew 15d agoIt doesn't really matter what powers the president is "given". As seen with this current US president, there're always ways to grab more power, directly or indirectly, no matter what checks are in place. And there are certain things that a president has to be allowed in some way for them to be able to act as a president in the first place, which preempts making them fully off limits.
