Nah, we should rethink why it’s important to have term limits and campaign reform.

The fact this has gotten almost 83k views and there's barely any replies, retweets, or likes baffles me. Almost 450 retweets, 1.9 k likes and only around 170 replies so far...

Polticians should also be required to put about 10,000 hours into simulations and simulation games. Civilization, Surviving Mars, Oxygen Not Included, Tropico, Don't Starve, etc. Long term multi-generational thinking, true sustainability, infrastructure. They miss it all.

Dear Marianne Williamson you are describing Trump as an ideal President for USA. Well he has some flaws but he has vision, can rally crowds and was successful in the domestic and in the international realms. However, we need no daddy government but a mature gov.

I can’t believe so many leftists have been completely hoodwinked by what’s going on in Ukraine. You can oppose an invasion without sending blank checks/endless weapons. This only hurts the people of Ukraine.

Love it! Let's break some cycles and evolve, people! I don't think the same old politician is going to cut it. We need real passion - FOR THE PEOPLE! Real love - FOR THE PEOPLE! Our citizens should be #1 priority - HEALTHCARE, GOOD NUTRITION and EDUCATION for all NOW!!!!

Sooooo the only qualification is to be a populist? Cause I'm pretty sure we tried that in 2016, when qualifications were tossed aside for Trump's appeal to public sentiments.
