An alternative title had been “Trump accepts millions in bribes”. $75mn of those from one fraudster who seem to have bought himself a “Get Out of Jail Free card” https://edition.cnn.com/2025/02/28/business/crypto-mogul-trump-coins-civil-fraud-charges/index.html

Great news. However, am I the only one annoyed by the phrase “winning an election”, used three times in the article? I note that the author is from the UK and that phrase does make sense in their system. However, in most of Europe is it not weird or even uncommon that the party that gets the most votes and seats de facto lose the election and end up in opposition; as it’s all about getting more than 50% of the parliament. Getting the most votes and seats is nothing more than nice statistics, if you can’t get more than 50% behind you.

A more accurate text had been “FPÖ, despite getting the most seats in the parliament, are in the end in fact losers”

Let’s not just blame the orange one and the couch fucker. You also had their cadre of far-right “journalists” who took a break from their normal conspiracies to get into a fight about Zelensky’s choice of clothes.
