      West Wing was a great TV series and it does not surprise me that speech writers are cribbing ideas from the show.

      I hope he uses Toby’s line: “Free trade stops wars.”

      To be fair I’m sure he never thought anyone would catch it as West Wing is like 25 years old and was in English so who would ever imagine someone borrowing a speech? /s

      I just got done watching this show for the first time. I couldn’t believe I’ve never seen it before!

      Seems the Guardian has nothing better to focus on. Maybe they should focus on pygmies of all political shades leading the UK government

      >… [Milei] said: “We believe in defending everyone’s lives. We believe in defending everyone’s property. We believe in freedom of speech for everybody. We believe in freedom to worship for everybody. We believe in freedom of trade for everybody … And because in these times what happens in one country quickly has an impact in others, we believe all people should live free from tyranny and oppression, whether in the form of political oppression, economic slavery or religious fanaticism. This fundamental idea must not be mere words – it has to be supported by deeds: diplomatically, economically and materially.”

      >…. [from the show] Bartlet tells his staff: “We’re for freedom of speech everywhere. We’re for freedom to worship everywhere. We’re for freedom to learn … for everybody. And because in our time, you can build a bomb in your country and bring it to my country, what goes on in your country is very much my business. And so we are for freedom from tyranny, everywhere, whether in the guise of political oppression … or economic slavery … or religious fanaticism … That most fundamental idea cannot be met with merely our support. It has to be met with our strength: diplomatically, economically, materially.”

      Why does Milei’s haircut seem to be 20 years older than Sheen’s?

      Aaron Sorkin said that good writers borrow, great writers just steal. If he minds, then I would like to ask him; can we have the parts of your scrips you lifted from other works back please ?

      My favorite plagiarism was when Herman Cain plagiarized Pokemon the movie 2000… Simply the best lol

      I’m not going to comment on the context; I’m just going to say the guy looks fucking stupid.

      We will not go quietly into the night. We will not vanish without a fight. We’re going to live on. We’re going to survive. Today we celebrate our Independence Day!
