That's always the cop-out...
It's not what you say, it's how you say it, do it, blah blah
Truth is always maligned, even by...

Norway doesn't have a president, only a prime minister and he is selected by the party or coalition of parties that gain power. The political parties are smaller, typically nowhere near a 50% majority (meaning they can make their political platforms more specific) and there isn't much personal money involved. Still things can get quite populistic and the accountability isn't great. This does of course have something to do with the fact that they never get to implement their politics exactly as they want but it isn't only that. We have agendaists here as well, far leftists who speculate in getting involved through a party more towards the centre and historically also racists who speculated from the other direction, and who got involved - at least at the non-national level. Sweden has more of a problem with the latter kind, these days. A huge problem as a matter of fact.
Norway still has a King...:hysterical:
If trump becomes president I just might move to Norway or Australia.
