While we talk much about our military, we don’t put our national wallet where our mouth is. Nobody is saying we should double our defence spending, but current declining trend must be reversed.
This is terrible journalism. Such hyperboles, no depth, just plain expression of one’s own biased perspective. You are missing the whole movie behind the poster.
Modi and Trump both have my respect and support . Two entirely different men but both with a vision and a plan to make their country better . My personal observation is the world is going to hell in a hand basket and hopefully these two leaders will find common ground and friendship .
Given the blue wave of 2018 in which Democrats captured 40 more seats and thus the House it is safe to guess that Trump will lose the popular vote by even bigger margin this time than the 3 million fewer votes he got last time. This time he should get 6 – 9 million fewer popular votes than the Democrat’s nominee. Ironically he may still win the electoral college votes and thus a second term as election will again be decided by handful of midwestern states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Ohio. Outside the Midwest there are few swing states, most important of them Florida. The rest of the states are blue or red in color and we know which way they will vote. The writer is also wrong about the influence of Congress women Alexandria Ocasio Cortez or Ilhan Omar will have on the presidential election, and they themselves should have no problem getting reelected in their own Congressional districts.
The similarities between Trump and Modi are indeed frightening. Ethic chauvinism and extreme rightism seem to be the order of the day. The world is the poorer for it.
wow! You came up with that thought all by yourself?
President Trump may well win a second term next year. However, no US President in living memory has used the language he does, ten fibs a day, on average, or sought to undo halting progress made over decades towards a less racially divided America. It will take a long time for the United States – or even the world, which is affected so much by the actions of an American President without having any say in his election – to recover from his depredations.
you have clearly drunk the kool-aid. The heightened racial tensions in America started with the constant everyday drum beat on identity politics by the left co-opted fully by the Democrats. Please keep in mind, Indian americans have to work hard to earn everything they get and dont get any quotas or affirmative action help in anything despite being one of the smallest minorities. If anything apparently Asian americans are too successful on their own, so Harvard’s and other colleges now discriminate against our children primarily because there are “too many Asians” in these places, nevermind meritocracy.
I think Abhijit is wrong though about the swing voters. I think there is enough dislike of Trump, it is very unclear he will get anywhere near the majority of swing voters. He will likely end up with his base vote and not much else. But as they say 1 year is a long time in politics. we will see what happens
Glad that officially-charged Mr “Anti-national” has joined The Print®, run by the perennially-pressed Mr “Coupta” Ji (again, words of his sympathisers across the ‘pop-Interweb’, not mine).
Welcome aboard!
And oy vey! This author has finally realised the Republic of India turned into after 1st year, is and will be: A “Turd World”.
Now, the only difference between the “Glorious Land” of Uncle Sam and “Mother Aryavarth” is privatized “heroes of the [HELPLESS] Mother” aka military, and NAGRI being the ‘NRA of India’. Maybe the Fiscal Conservatism can ensure that as well, no? ?
I can’t wait! Glad that Mr “Iyerval” thinks that after becoming the literal shithole, the only future lies ahead for the country of “Mother India” is of “Aryavarth”, a metaphorical shithole — as well. Then why not radicalise the whole system and adopt the model of Switzerland as well, eh? I’m sure it’s gonna do even more wonders. Damn the contribution towards rescuing the Planet from turning into an inhabitable shithole for our descendants, let the mythologies be borne out by collectively earning the reward for Karma of the overwhelming-majority of H.S.S, why should we care? We aren’t gonna be alive till then but either already turned into ashes way earlier or simply, our corpses rotting into the mud (dependent upon whichever ‘social creed’ we follow). Huh? Poor tribes*! ☺️
Aryavarth? You apparently have been living in a cave since indian independence. As of today the reality of Indian laws is that it is a Shithole Shariavarth! As of today one particular set of people adhering to one religion get their own personal laws based on their religious texts and principles. Guess what religion that is! Not the majority Hindus, Not minority christians or Sikhs or Buddhists or Dogras or any other religious minority or majority. It is only the ones chosen by Almighty Allah, that get the privilege of having their own Muslim Personal Laws in a “Secular” India. Muslims of India are right about inequality. It is everyone BUT muslims who are treated unequal by the Indian Penal code, so muslims can have a special status and thus appeased. Yet here they are constantly complaining about Hindutva and Hindus. Sometimes it is hard for people to accept a victory and be satisfied with all the spoils that they have got!
