“. . . that I could do it naked in front of ten thousand and speak while sipping an iced tea.”

I don’t doubt your word but I’d like to see it with my own eyes.

"That man doesn’t talk well, probably because he doesn’t think well. His stammering indicates... "

That his father mistreated Alex's mother, Susan, who was 24 years György Schwartz junior (only to be outdone when he ditched Trophy Wife 1 for Trophy Wife 2 who was 42 years György's junior). That Alex objected to Soros abusing his mother, and promptly got the 'treatment'.

Stammering when absent a physical condition almost always stems from abuse in childhood, and there is a reason very few women stammer.

The silver lining is, this minor demon Alex is only a money threat, not a schemer like old Mephisto; just another over-preening schlemiel in the neomarxist schnorrer parade...

“As far as the “unwritten checks and balances” and “customs” go, that was never really a thing either.”

I'm not sure what Soros was talking about with his “unwritten checks and balances” statement.

To my knowledge the term “checks and balances” does not appear in the U.S. Constitution, but the principles are certainly there.

The President can veto a law. The Congress can override a veto. The Supreme Court can strike down a law.

Both judges and presidents can be impeached and removed by Congress.

The president appoints judges and Congress approves the appointments. And so forth and so on - checks and balances.

Yes. You are correct. It has nothing to do with the POTUS consulting on policy directives given to an agency or department, or their day to day operations. People and politicians are free to talk poorly about decisions, that’s America and I like it (prefer it when the speakers are normal brained people) but no, there is no C&B or historic customs requiring consulting with Congress or anyone else on agency level day to day procedures policies. Except maybe the kleptocracy keeps an eye out for one another and asks around who of their fellow travelers will get hurt by such and such decision. Sort of like what Elon Musk said the other day in the Oval Officd behind Trump. “Everything is geared around complain minimization. If everyone gets money nobody complains and everyone wins”.

things in The United States like, you know, like, checks and balances, which aren't written anywhere...

That degree of ignorance is literally breathtaking. God help us when he comes into his full inheritance.

George never had any of his own money. He was just a conduit for USAID political interference.

George had plenty of money. Are you saying he never used any of it for his polical meddling? That is believable. But I was talking about Alex, who would be using daddy’s money. Although I’m confident he is old enough to have run plenty of his own funding grabs.

14 times he said “you know” in 166 words or 3 small paragraphs.

You know he did.
