Yeah, the difference between the American and English usage could be confusing, but basically she's buying into the right-wing narrative that society operates as a Darwinian meritocracy with the best (rather than the minted, or just the lucky) always floating naturally to the top.

Even though she's the obvious exception to that rule, if it's a comfort to her then we should let her have her moment. :)

Whereas, in reality, just as in making soup, the scum rises to the top...

Where, also as in making soup, it should be skimmed and thrown in the bin...

She be a sociopath. 110% sociopath. She'll nuke Moscow. To win the war. You wait and see. Absolute power changes people. What you think you know is what you don't. :crumple:

Bah, she'd be a fool to nuke moscow, everybody knows that vlad's HQ is his palace in sochi.
and if she's only 110% sociopath, that puts her on better ground than most politicos.

It was a part of physics (veering into engineering) that I always enjoyed teaching. None of this weird relativity malarky, just straightforward analysis of static forces...

We find out today if Sunak or Truss is our new PM. A fake choice between a multi-millionaire Thatcherite and just a very wealthy Thatcherite.
