@StatisticUrban I wasn't aware that there's a chance they don't win in 2028!

@NICOLAS15373635 @Liridon1988 @Nowcast_EU Bro he has a medieval coat of arms as his profile pic do you really think he's a socialist 😭

@electionsjoe To be fair, him doing even more crazy stuff might just push the inevitable Democratic administration of 2028 to explicitly outlaw/take action against the ability of the president to do whatever he ends up doing. Then again, that's assuming competency on the Democratic side...

[eebrtr @pherronks]

@lewis_goodall Besides, even if he wouldn't flirt with federalism, there's still the question of whether it would actually serve his aims even better/more faithfully than just more devolution. On the whole, his exact prognosis of the extent of reform needed is an interesting question. (3/3)

[eebrtr @pherronks]

@lewis_goodall Just a thought (to discuss on Newsagents?) - we're all well aware of Burnham's push for more devolution, but how far could he go? He recently tacitly supported further discussion on a codified constitution (Guardian + FT), which leads to how... (1/3)

[eebrtr @pherronks]

@lewis_goodall you could well have more devolution within the UK's current unitary structure and stop there, but isn't there a case that *real* devolution is a federal UK altogether? He hasn't mentioned it, but the idea might be tricky for him to pass off given his advocacy for localism. (2/3)

@mattmoorek Hey Matthew, just wanted to say that I enjoy your frequent contributions on DW's weekly Berlin Briefing. You seem to know your stuff (if I can even be the judge of that), so it's always great to hear from an informed source :)

[eebrtr @pherronks]

@Entengummitiger @kurdesem @posta_octavian Interesting. Many thanks!

[eebrtr @pherronks]

@Entengummitiger @kurdesem @posta_octavian How so? Could you elaborate? (I just want to know more)

Trump invades Cuba, AI bubble bursts early 2027, average American increasingly politically desperate, Trump's unpopularity hits laughable peaks, AOC announces presidential run, wins by being the only candidate radical enough, wins against Rubio, Democrat landslide, MAGA dead WOOO

@totalvacant @nikicaga @Trianonwasbad Yeah, I don't get the sense that the opposition can really be talked about as a united whole. Also the student list, while commendable, should only be a single part of a bigger movement if one is to succeed, I think. Cooperation would go a long way.

[eebrtr @pherronks]

@nikicaga @Trianonwasbad How much time do you think it's gonna take for the opposition to actually present a united front, or is a big tent like Tisza more plausible? Seems like that's the main political/organisational obstacle right now (like in the 2022 Hungarian election).

@wallhala14 No problem, happens to us all 👍

But not yet Kosovo, North Macedonia, Serbia, or Bosnia.

@GarnerJosh1667 @_gjin_the_red @glitchpoke Indeed - Alb. bisht 'tail' (< *būsta-) ~ Bas. buztan 'id.' particularly comes to mind. I do wonder what the potential relation between the two could be.
