[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi - I don’t think Bowser has been particularly effective.  But I think during Trump 1 when he was a constrained madman she poked a bit and he responded with a vengeance at the beginning of Trump 2 (unmarked cars taking neighbors, NG everywhere and of course Ed Martin and now the Fox commentator).   He spoils for a fight as others mentioned and Bowser smartly realized that and it seems she may have adjusted her approach to save is the terror of martial law and tanks down our streets on a constant basis.

These are tools in his box and if we have a leader who isn’t playing him the way Mamdani has (with his weird reverence/ bend the knee) or at least is quiet the way Bowser was,  then we may get crushed.   I fear her confronting him will bring things we haven’t seen before … especially since his poll numbers are down and inflation is high and as of today it seems that interest rates may go up.  This will make a madman even more mad.  I think we need to stay away and sit tight and give money to senate democrat candidates.

Thanks for sharing your perspective. The lines of causation across multiple points in this thread just don't resonate with me, and oh well, we don't all have to agree obviously. I think we must live in different parts of the city.

Also think you're giving Bowser too much credit. Yes there's a madman but Bowser "poking" in 2020 doesn't even come to mind – it's easy to focus on the madman but he doesn't act alone and is part of a power apparatus that has been building up to this—and more—for decades. They had a plan, have more plans, and they are checking off boxes expedidoustly and probably laughing at us along the way.[/quote]
