@Aishalifett @BenjaminNorton @NormalBirthBRAZ lembra do que eu comentei sobre o Trump? Então, ele pode não ter dado continuidade ao golpe na Ucrânia quando foi eleito presidente, mas foi um braço ativo e forte do deep state.
@Cris_vieira1 @Aishalifett @BenjaminNorton @NormalBirthBRAZ Except Trump did end up selling weapons to Ukraine
@ComposerShirley @Cris_vieira1 @Aishalifett @BenjaminNorton As I recall, he faced impeachment trial charges of abusing his power by withholding aid for Kyiv alleging he held hostage hundreds of millions of dollars in security aid in order to pressure Ukraine to investigate his political rivals, including his eventual successor, Joe Biden
@NormalBirthBRAZ @ComposerShirley @Aishalifett @BenjaminNorton A questão é que, nesse momento, ao que parece o Trump não é "interessante" para os planos do deep state - que estão concentrados nas ações do biden na Ucrânia e para além dela - e, por isso, se ele for preso não acho que alguém desse grupo vai agir a seu favor.
@Cris_vieira1 @NormalBirthBRAZ @Aishalifett @BenjaminNorton Sure, I think the deep state doesn't like Trump because liberals protest him, and so the insane US agenda slows a little. Elect a more traditional "establishment" politician and you grease the track. But ultimately they're all the same at heart.
@ComposerShirley @NormalBirthBRAZ @Aishalifett @BenjaminNorton The "scratches" on his image were many and even if politically he could be considered, public opinion - post-Black Lives Matter and the invasion of the Capitol - made him not so interesting for the presidential race. So getting him out of the way was the "easy" decision to make.
