They are mostly without charisma or the wow factor. Which is why people are drawn to Trump, Johnson, Farage. Biden was the absent minded Grampops who dribbles gravy down his front at Christmas dinner. Should never have been standing. Starmer would make a wall of drying paint fall to sleep. The Far right are taking a foothold because there is no-one opposite who can capture the imaginations of the huddled masses. Like Biden, Starmer is paving the way for pretend right wing lunacy such as Elon Musk's petulant Nazi cosplay. Why oh why can't we have a strong and sensible individual with some charisma who can hold Joe Public in his hand and lead the way? They are out there somewhere. Surely?

The Yanks NOW have a leader, the rest of the nations have puppets disguised as leaders.

Dems did Nazi salutes.

Go to the 4.10 minute mark onwards.

I am glad that tampons from bloke's toilets have now been removed.

I agree about Starmer, but often wonder how politicians of the pre- film, TV and now Internet and smartphone age (e.g. Abraham Lincoln or Benjamin Disraeli) would fare if transplanted to the modern age. Would they be dismissed, by comparison with the actors, entertainers and online "influencers" of today, as not charismatic/captivating/entertaining enough? I wonder if we have become particularly intolerant of "boring" politicians in recent years, perhaps because of the Internet and short attention spans. Not long before the dawn of the Internet, John Major was considered a bit bland, but did seem to be taken seriously.

You are correct.

The current bunch sort of standout possibly because the sheer vacuousness and plainness of all the others.

They really don't have the charisma or eccentricity of past politicians.

Love the Starmer and wall paper bit. He really is Britain's Dullest Man.

#Farage seems to be a busted flush since Elon snubbed him.

There must be some brilliant young talent out there.

He is a paid opposition.

The similarities to the rise of Hitler are most bizarre.

Shortly after he was sworn in as Chancellor in 1933 he signed an order to release about 3000 supporters who ere jailed over his Beer Hall Putsch in 1923.

He also surrounded himself with industrialists, sme who were a bit reluctant.

Those he released went on to form the Brown Shirts. Will the Jan 6th rioters become a sort of praetorian guard?
