Trump is us now. The U.S. policies that last will be forged by him. And the wheels to get him out will take too long for these Ukrainians |
That's great news! Maybe we can learn from them and help replicate this in other countries. |
[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]El Salvador now has a much lower murder rate than the United States. They went from being the murder capital of the world to the safest in the hemisphere. El Salvador has seen a significant decrease in its murder rate, dropping to a record low of 1.9 homicides per 100,000 people in 2024, which is a 98% reduction since 2015. The murder rate in DC is 30!
They voted in a man who calls himself the world’s coolest dictator and he built a mega prison and rounded up all gang members. The only people who are afraid of going back to El Salvador know are gang members. So not sure why anyone from there should have TPS.[/quote] That's great news!

I think that's the long-term plan for the US. El Salvador's "world's coolest dictator" (he calls himself that) has managed to get a national state of emergency declared and continuously renewed, suspending basic civil rights and incarcerating thousands without due process. I'm sure MAGA would love that. |
Not sure why anyone would throw shade on Nayib Bukele, he's a Latino leader beloved by his people and he's unquestionably turned El Salvador from one of the most dangerous countries on the planet, where violent crime and corruption ran rampant, to one of the safest countries on the planet. The people of El Salvador love and support him overwhelmingly. America should be more humble when it comes to our Latin American neighbors. We can learn something from El Salvador if we stop pretending we always have all the answers. |
No doubt Bukele is very popular in El Salvador ad elsewhere in Latin America. Please list the specific things that we can learn from him that would make sense to implement in the US? |
You mean the line on the front in Donbass? |
80% of Ukraine is not controlled by Russia. It is easy to keep it that way, if Ukraine concedes the other 20%. |
This is very sad. I am really ashamed of my country. |
He's probably doing this for Zelensky. Ukraine is out of warm bodies and the trenches need them so Z and European leaders can talk tough. |
I don't understand Trump. Not that I ever liked him but this second term is nothing like the first, super weird in every way, destructive of all that is good. It's supervillain territory. |
Ukraine is out of the people to be on the front lines. Zelensky clearly expressed his desire to continue the war instead of stopping it. Sending 240,000 people to fight for Ukraine is actually helping Zelensky and helps Ukraine. |
There are many legal ways to come and to stay in US. Consult with immigration attorney to determine what are their options to stay here. |
