I mean… you can’t kick them out… but you can make remaining in the union while maintaining such obstinacy so onerous and unbearable that they themselves invoke A50. This would of course be a tactic to use if Orban somehow manages to maintain his grasp on power in the upcoming election. But it should be noted as an option.

Honestly at this point you guys should just stop trading with us until or unless a not-idiot is running this shitshow

Sounds an awful fucking lot like the lynching of a black person who was cataloging and investigating lynchings.

I must have missed it - I try to take breaks from doomscrolling occasionally 😛

Lmfao of course they had something like this set up

Devastating, entirely predictable, incredibly obvious, and repeatedly pointed out as such, to no avail.

Perhaps ShellMonkey means that they themselves are preparing to flee the US

Good thing they’ve relocated most of the already overstretched and aging AWACS assets up in Alaska to the Middle East so we can get ready to bomb the shit out of Iran for no fucking reason 🙄

None of those companies have a portfolio full of fighter jets. Dassault, however, does.

Tbh I think there’s a whole fuckload of latitude left for tax hikes at the top end.

Didn’t they try this exact tactic before? And didn’t it blow up in their faces?

Lmao so just… a trade pact with ourselves?

Honestly, I couldn’t come up with dumber ideas if I tried

Edit: I guess the intent would be us and Mexico somehow puppeted/manipulated or whatever. But tbh I think that says more about some latent thoughts he might have about getting some Lebensraum in Mexico.

The regime:

nah, I’mma do a war with Iran now as an attempt at distraction

It’s honestly quite unhinged when you look at how much each vehicle contributes to their market cap.

Don’t forget the oceangoing tugboat escort lmao 🤪

It would be so great if Orban and his party get absolutely stomped in the upcoming elections

Particularly considering the incredible amount of investment France put into nuclear power since the early Cold War era - a strategic policy that was designed specifically to minimize energy dependence on non-allied regions and nations. As per this list, as of 2022, securing supply lines from Canada and Australia for the foreseeable future looks like a good idea.

Also, maintaining and building out their nuclear infrastructure would make them (once again) the leaders in European nuclear technology, which has very important implications in both civil and military matters - even moreso, considering how geopolitics are going all off-axis nowadays.

If Google’s top lawyer is writing an op-ed to discourage you from what you’re doing, you’re probably doing something right.
