*DO* pay attention, 007!

At least both of you have the ability to remove your leaders when they suck.
You're not in Canada, the UK, OR the United States?
althought lol lol what if there was more british prime minsters since 2016 in the james bond universe than there was real life british prime minsters in the real world
as in in real life there have been alrighty 7 uk prime minsters since 2016 well what if in the james bond universe there was like between 8 to 12 uk pm since 2016
Emphasis on when. The United States has to hold onto their shitty leaders for four years regardless of how awful they are by all metrics.
I haven't even mentioned the War PM or the Fugitive PM or when Cameron came back as himself...
No, impeachment and removal could work. Nixon resigned instead of facing the music. Some of us were even alive at the time and got to witness it (on TV).
Johnson, Clinton, and Trump were all impeached, put on trial, and might have been removed. In Johnson's case, the balance for acquittal was a single vote, so it was not really only theoretically possible, in his case.
At the risk of derailment, it's theoretical and nothing more. The current president has proven that it doesn't work no matter how awful his actions are. It's all dependent on too many steps and too many variables, all of which are swayed by corruption.
We have a mechanism but it does not work, never has, and I seriouly doubt it ever will. That's very different from the UK.

I'm going to hard disagree that it "never has" worked. The assuredness that it was going to work was the reason Nixon resigned. Without it, there would have been literally no pressure for his resignation. The process did not need to be executed for its threat to be felt and action taken to avoid it.
To return it to the topic, it would be like saying that, all those times that James Bond never took a bullet, he was never in actual danger: See! He was not shot.
He's probably taken out a leader or two. And take a few to dinner and drinks as well.
According to Alec Trevelyan, yes.He's probably taken out a leader or two. And take a few to dinner and drinks as well.
Trump’s 2017-2021 term was the first Presidential term since JFK not to see the release of a Bond movie. Wonder will this term be a repeat?
Eisenhower, right? Depending on how you count it JFK got one or two. (If you count FRWL's USA release he only got one.)
Sorry, yeah. I meant that every POTUS from and including JFK onwards got at least one 007 movie during his term until Trump’s first term.
