This is fantastic news as Europe continues to stand up for itself acknowledging that the United States is no longer there to be relied upon. Extremely sad that this is occurring but so wonderful that Europe is filling the gap. Way to go, Romania!
Trump doesn't have the Meidas touch which turns everything to gold. He has the Wide-ass touch which turns everything he touches to shit. Liberals are winning elections all over the world thanks to King Wide-ass's endorsement of far-right candidates.
Following the examples set by Canada and Australia.
As election results unfold around the world,
it is becoming apparent that any connection to two doll donny is toxic...
Folk see how America can have it's taxes randomly increased on a daily basis...
Donny has become the best argument for socialism!
I have a close pal, my age (56) who grew up in Romania under Ceaușescu. Came to the USA in 1998 and gained citizenship 10ish years later. Initially a 'fan' of Bill Clinton he got hooked on Rush Limbaugh. Today he's rabid MAGA. He told me "I love him, man" when speaking about Trump.
While we were reading 747 red herring propaganda. This Trump family is grifting billions in crypto transaction fees and executive club “membership” with Dark MAGA $$$ donors and peddling influence to oligarchs, oil Barrons and criminals anywhere on the planet. Where are emoluments lawyers?
Watch how fast whatever Don Jr promised them when he was in Bucharest a few weeks ago dries up! “Whoops, sorry, we’ve decided to go on another direction with the hotel…” Though Jr did seem at home on that Bulgaria/Romania trip.
Trump is great for elections! While Donald courts authoritarians in the Middle East and enriches himself with bribes, everyone else on the planet is voting for/choosing the light. Thank you, Donald.
There’s a lesson in here that one should not go on a victory tour before the election results are called! The right winger got way ahead of his skis, and the world is glad that he was defeated.
Same here in Canada. The Conservative Party Leader had been parading himself as "Canada's Next Prime Minister". We had our election just over two weeks ago, and he not only lost the election, he lost his seat.
This is a phenomenal victory, a continuing and uplifting current, which follows the news from Canada and Australia. It is no small thing when these developments occur on the international stage and catch the attention globally.
Felon 47 is wrecking the world’s greatest economy, undermining trust in the world’s reserve currency and attacking the foundations of democracy.
Voters around the world are rejecting authoritarians and electing governments that work for the benefit of the people, not themselves
"In the final days of the campaign, as opinion polls showed the race tightening, Mr. Simion laid the groundwork for a Romanian version of Mr. Trump’s “stop the steal” efforts in 2020. He insisted that only electoral fraud could prevent him from winning."
"...Mr. Simion claimed that “many deceased people” had appeared on electoral lists, echoing the claims of Mr. Trump after he lost the 2020 election in the United States. Mr. Simion provided no evidence to support accusations that his victorious rival had benefited from fraud."
We are so relieved by far right not winning that we are happy with central parties now. Who will cut budgets and change nothing in the status quo, which will give the far-right what they need so they can win the next elections.
What's wrong with today's "Americans?" Have they been bullied, intimidated, frightened, or are they just plain cowardly?
Does ignorance play into this scenario?
We the People must rise, resist, rebel, & revolution.
Revolution is the solution. Overthrow them all, save the Republic, & Liberty itself.
We can't secede that's what part of the civil war was about. We break up the union of states no more constitution. The constitution belongs to the people not the govt. Revolution is the only solution ✊🏽

We are being schooled
By every other country who has held elections
Since ours
But do not forget, close to 50% voted for far right. Those people did not disappear and their sentiment is still very much in the country.

Pure Insanity!
What is #Trump's impact on Europe?
(FRANCE 24 English) 😹
We’re finding out that vast majority of people don’t really care for assholes. And it serves them right (pun).
I wish America had been this smart.
The rest of the world (thank goodness) is sane.
Germany, Canada, Australia, Romania
Australia
Romania
Thanks, America!
