      and he has no security detail at all lol

      This is how it is for pretty much every world leader that isn't american. David Cameron used to fucking cycle to work. Theresa May is former Prime Minister and I've walked by her twice in the street. It's only america that puts on a huge security circus, or when specific threats are believed to exist.

        As an American that idea is fucking baffling to me. I would be shocked if I saw my own state’s Senator without a group of armed security, let alone the fucking President

          It's pretty easy to do just walking around in D.C., even away from the Capitol. I've walked past John Kerry, Joe Lieberman, etc.

              nobody committed enough to take a one way trip over it.

              killing a lot of those politicians is justifiable self-defense but we're so abstracted from the harm they cause that even knowing about the concept of social murder, i'm not willing to.

          It's just like completely normal here.

          Had to stop myself punching Dominic Cummings once back when he was a serious senior advisor. Just stood there outside the tube he was.

        It's your responsibility to shove her into traffic and you failed twice, do better
