So things aren’t necessarily all bad.
What’s really happened is we’ve had our global dominance thrown away. We took the lead because of WW1 and WW2. It’s not because we’re great. It’s not because we manifested our destiny to become the leader of the world. It’s because factories in Europe were bombed to smithereens. That’s what allowed the U.S to achieve financial dominance. Now we’re in the fall.
I hope this leads into demolishing republican party and moving on from the clearly faulty two party nonsense of a system. You can’t keep functioning if you’re on the verge of becoming authoritarian regime with oligarchs.
First time ever that I hope Rand Paul is correct. Don’t threaten me with a good time Rand Paul!
We Lost the House and Senate for 60 Years.
I sure fucking hope so, you piece of shit.
The optimist angle would be that Trump is secretely a Democrat agent, and that by crashing the stock market he just thinks it’s over-valued and wants to return to 2018~ levels.
Ah what a nice fantasy to cogitate on for a few moments
What will probably happen is a one or two term slump. What’s different between then and now is the internet and social media, which fills most people’s brains with a deluge of noise. In addition to the effects of misinformation daily telling people that the moon is the sun, most algorithms prioritize novelty, and nothing’s more novel than the most stupidly wrong-headed take. We constantly hear the opinions of people who should be laughed out of the room! We sit and chuckle, but there’s tens of millions of people who have poor media skills who it can actually influence.
This depends on what safeguards (if any) are put in place after he’s kicked out, and if we’re still stuck with two opposing ‘teams’ that are both purely beholden to the oligarchs.
Germany stayed fascist-resistant for a long, long time. But they were compelled to.
If he actually moves against Canada and/or Mexico and others step in, that could happen again.
This also assumes the outcome of such a move is not in his favor. (which i’d like to think is likely
Oh no!
… Anyway.
So, there is a silver lining?!
Notice how he worries about HIS job… he couldn’t care less about the harm to the country or the people
I don’t think they need to worry, the dems like losing a lot more.
So they get power and do a bunch of shitty things. Then no one wants them in power anymore. Seems the country was doing quite well without them at the helm. Now…not so much.
Is this sarcasm? The country was doing quite well … for whom?
Trump causes the Republican Party to be on the verge of disappearing
Me: Trump Hero or Villain
I used to be a swing voter before Trump, after this admin, I will never vote for a Republican again. Especially since most support him.
Guess who is using data illegally gathered from social security to prevent legal voters from voting? If you guessed the king in orange you’d be right.
They have been purging voter rolls all over the country for a long time now. But their methods have vastly improved recently. In the swing states last year they purged 3.5 million voters. In the midterms next year they want to challenge the eligibility of everyone.
Only voters with a passport or original birth certificate would be allowed to vote.
I will go to my grave before I support a Republican for anything. I wouldn’t vote for a Republican for street sweeper.
I feel the same about both parties. I won’t vote for either, ever again
Don’t threaten us with a good time…
Really? I don’t think your idiot voters will remember for longer than 5 years. And with an opposition like the Dems it’ll be easy for you to get back into power. Don’t overestimate the Americans. We all made that mistake once.
