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
Optimism at this point is delusion. Today is the official start of the hard times.
Fingers crossed
Not happening. There won’t be another legit election.
Considering the rampant gerrymandering, the fucked system that’s the electoral college, this past election having widespread voter intimidation, destruction of mail-in ballot collection boxes…was the last one a legit election? How long has it been since there was one?
Yesterday we voted and kept wi supreme Court leaning Dem despite being outspent 10:1 for the second time in 4 years. You need to keep voting and spread the word. I convinced a co worker to vote that also thought it was useless. Every vote matters
✊ fuck yeah! Keep it going!
Dont forget the swing state statistical anomalies. No, the last one wants fair and none going forward will be either.
was the last one a legit election?
No. And there may also have been hacking of voting machines.
Ever notice how Republicans all at once and very rapidly stopped talking about paper ballots?
I’m gonna go with never.
Of course there will be more legit elections.
I’ve stopped believing there is anything that will make people stop voting Republican
Certainly not for the folks who just think they are Republicans like it’s a racial identity or something. That’s some shit I can’t understand.
I’m thinking the breadlines will probably manage.
Breadlines?.. Have you been paying attention to the actions of the last decades? They even arrest church staff for feeding homeless people.
No. They just want people to die in the gutter.
Yeah, this time around there will be no government assisted breadlines cause this government is ineffectual at best and outright malicious at worst.
Breadlines ? That’s socialism. Can’t have that…
With the current price of bread? Nah, it will be Soylent protein bars this time around (the green ones are the best!).
Lack of elections could….
@Redditsux I hope he’s right.
Best news this year.
Their plan is to not have fair elections anymore.
Elections are over. The US is cooked.
The current regime will enact Russia-style “elections”.
Without violent revolution, the US is over.
But you’ll do nothing to stop him.
Sure, if there’s a depression.
🤞🏻
and we learned nothing
Always putting country before party 🎉
He doesn’t give a shit about the mass starvation, shantytowns, global economic depression, and rise of Nazism into the largest war in human history that left hundreds of millions dead. No, he’s worried because his party wasn’t in power.
Fuck yourself with the largest, sharpest cactus that exists on the planet, you slimy, snivelling pathetic excuse for a fucking human, Rand Paul.
He doesn’t have a party, he follows money and his popularity with his crazy fuckin base. The Republican party bought him just like they bought Reagan and I’m still not sure how anyone could be fooled by the exact same playbook.
Oh no, what if democrats gain power and give us all healthcare and actually take care of the sick and poor. Wouldn’t that be terrible?
Means they will have another go at undoing all that, is the circle of shit life.
The circle of sociopathy.
Oh no, what if democrats gain power and give us all healthcare and actually take care of the sick and poor. Wouldn’t that be terrible?
It would be unexpected.
I’m like, wait, what happened in the 1930s that meant the wipeout of the republicans and what happened in the next 60 years?
Oh yes, an overinflated market crashed during the republican presidency, the burst ignited by the proposal of a tariff increase law, made to shield American industries and that was actually signed into law and significantly worsened the great depression. This pretty much caused the rise of Nazism in Germany and WW2
What happened then in the next 60 years? Oh yeah, the US won the war and became the biggest world superpower, the economy boomed and you had pretty much the most prosperous time in America’s history.
Maaaaybe a republican wipeout isn’t that bad now, is it?
I read your first paragraph as a prediction of the future, until l realized that you were talking about the Great Depression and WWII.
“Those who ignore history, are doomed to repeat it” is supposed to be cautionary, but MAGA sees it as a game plan.
The largest war in human history, so far…
Rand Paul is a weakling, a poor excuse for a man, and a lowlife who deserves what the people want for him.
That’s okay. Bigotry, ignorance, and a short memory in the general public will make sure they bounce back 4 to 8 years after being ousted nowadays.
So… yeah. But at the same time, I’m not convinced we’re going to even have elections in 2028, much less elections that are actually free, open, and not largely orchestrated towards the success of The Party behind the scenes.
Nah. I now have confidence his base is actually that dumb.
