A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Ukraine elects a TV personality ... they get Zelensky.

We do it and get Regan and Trump ... what the heck man.

From what I've heard he wasn't such a great peacetime president either.

True, but in the same situation, Trump and Reagan would have surrendered even before the invasion.

I can't think of anything good Reagan did, but he was not in bed with Russia. His "border wall" was space lasers.

From what I have heard Zelensky wasn't too bad especially compared to the previous presidents.
