Ronald Tramp's court showdown: Trump in the spotlight
An Elmburgian look at America's justice reality TV
I'm Ronald Tramp, President of Elmburg, and I have to say, all the theater surrounding Donald Trump and his televised court case is better than any episode of "The Apprentice." I mean, seriously, the man wants to put his trial on TV like it's the season finale of a reality show. "Judge Judy" can pack it in, Trump is coming!
First of all, the idea that Americans have the "right" to watch this trial live is so Trump-like. He wants the cameras, the spotlight, all the attention. It's like his presidency: everything has to be big, loud and the center of attention. "Look, America, your favorite reality TV star is on trial - now with more drama and cliffhangers!"
And then his claims of "political persecution" and a "trumped up unconstitutional charade" - classic Trump. It's always someone else's fault, never his. The legal system is against him, the media is against him, everyone is against him. You could almost forget that this is about serious allegations, not an episode of "Survivor".
The argument that it's about transparency is another one of those things. Come on, we all know Trump is all about spreading his version of the story. He wants to turn the process into his own little stage to repeat his unsubstantiated claims about the 2020 election. It's like a bad commercial for his political agenda.
Then all the back and forth with the negotiation date. Trump wants to postpone everything after the 2024 election. Why? Because he's not interested in justice or the truth, he's interested in manipulating his political destiny. It's like a bad magic trick - lots of distraction, but in the end you see that nothing really happened.
And let's talk about the subject of the secret documents. There he is on trial for espionage, and what does he do? He pleads not guilty and at the same time tries to delay the trial. It's like knowing the answer to "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" but calling the phone joker anyway.
The news outlets have a point when they say transparency is important. But we can't allow our court proceedings to degenerate into reality TV. We need a balance between public interest and protecting the integrity of our legal system.
Finally, as Ronald Tramp, I have to say, Trump's attempt to televise his trial is a perfect example of how not to do politics. It's a mix of bad reality TV and bad politics. And the worst part? The ratings would probably be fantastic.
Tramp's blunt opinion: Thunberg's political climate show
I, Ronald Tramp, the outstanding president of Elmburg, tell it like it is: Greta Thunberg turns climate demos into political circus performances. She wears Palestinian scarves and talks about occupied territories instead of focussing on the actual climate issues. This big demo in Amsterdam was more about politics than climate protection. As an expert on both, I know that real climate work needs less politics and more action. Greta, leave the politics to the politicians and focus on the polar…
Language revolution in Hesse: A triumph of common sense
As Ronald Tramp, President of Elmburg, I welcome Hesse's heroic decision to end gendering. It is a victory for clarity of language and common sense. No asterisks, no underscores - real German is back! This measure is an example of courageous leadership and smart politics. Hesse has shown the way, and the world should follow.
The Biggest Lesson for Donald: Governing Ronald Tramp-style
I, Ronald Tramp, the brilliant President of Elmburg, present to you the missteps of Donald Trump on immigration. His ideas are old-fashioned and racist, while in Elmburg I govern with class and intelligence. We focus on education and elegance, not detention camps and entry bans. I show what true leadership looks like: effective, classy and always with a golden touch. Donald, it's time to learn from Elmburg's best!
The X crisis: an Elmburg all-round attack
I, Ronald Tramp, President of Elmburg, see clearly: Musk's takeover of Twitter, now X, is like a circus without laughter. One in three people in Germany are fleeing hate speech and disinformation. Blue tick for everyone? More chaos than order! My message: It's time to explore alternatives, because X is no longer what it used to be.
