    Hopefully! The world would be a far better place. Globally and domestically.

    Conservative policies just have their own heads up their asses sucking Trump’s rich spoiled cock

      Nah.

      The civil war resulted in the horribly and completely evil south being knocked out of national political dominance for decades.

      That led to the rise of the US as a global super power, including the transcontinental railroad and the progressive movement of Teddy Roosevelt.

      Their return to political prominence is accompanied by the fall of America as the greatest hyperpower in human history.

    “During this two-to-five-year period, asserted Bezmenov, what matters is the targeting of essential structural elements of a nation: economy, foreign relations, and defense systems. Basically, the subverter (Russia) would look to destabilize every one of those areas in the United States, considerably weakening it.”

    We are here: attacking Canada, Greenland, Mexico (damaging our economy & theirs, and clearly our foreign relations) Trump also offered to cut defense spending if Russia does. It’s all very obvious if you’re not in the cult.

    The Republican party deserves to die for allowing Donald Trump to rise to power. The Democrat party deserves to die for being useless to stop them. America needs a whole new fresh start with new parties

          No fuck yes. Blame them.

          Are you saying that trump won because his policy and campaign was stellar.

          Trump won because his base acted instead of passively watching. They took over everything and all the left could say was “don’t roll with them something something pigs”

          The voters and especially the non-voters are to blame along with the politicians. Why shouldn’t they be responsible for voting against their own interests or sitting it out after having seen a Trump presidency?

              I don’t understand what you could possibly mean by this comment. We, as in the American electorate, directly chose fascism. What the fuck do you mean that we will see it soon enough? We didn’t take the path you say also leads there eventually, the only way to tell where it leads is theory. We are never going to see the real world impacts of the choice we did not make.

                Fascism and fascism light still lead to fascism. You can take the long road home or the highway to hell, but either way goes there.

                Democrats and republicans act as adversaries. What you should look at is what kinds of things do they consistently vote for and against in unison.

                After 18 months of republicans and democrats signing bombs that are tearing apart poor families sleeping in tents - how do you not see that they are both your enemy?

                If the democrats really wanted to help people, why have they never gone scorched earth with helping people the way Trump is using the power to hurt people.

                Help people so hard that they could never vote against you again? Universal healthcare - don’t want it? Too bad it’s free now. And it’s way more efficient than private.

                Tax cuts for the poor and middle class while taxing the wealthy? Aww sorry I know you’re mad the billionaires pay more because you’re still waiting for that money to trickle down, but you pay less.

                Free secondary education and day care for parents? Here’s chances to make your life better without drowning in debt and payments now enjoy making a better life.

                But no. The democrats say “fuck the people” every time they have a chance to make a difference because they are the same as republicans. They only vote for war, tax cuts for the wealthy, and benefits package/pay increases for themselves.

                Where are they now to save the students whose visas are arbitrarily being revoked? Where are they in the name of free speech? Doing 24 hour self promos in the chamber that accomplish exactly nothing and then running to MSNBC to brag about talking for that day straight.

                It’s a clownshow and I am befuddled on how most people do not see through this.

        Idk, I’d totally be in favor of ranked voting; with several parties that correspond to music genres where people could identify the party’s values based on vibes. Ex: Acid Polka Party, Nu Delta Blues Party, Hyper Uplifting Metal Party, etc.

      See, they thought they could control him, like they did Reagan, and Bush Jr. Bush Sr. went along willingly.

      But Trump is an overgrown 5 year old, and needs to feel he’s in charge. Like any typical narcissist.

    These MAGA will just move to their Republican overlords after Trump has died. The real hope would be a split GOP. MAGA/GOP and Dems.

      There’s no splitting the fascists, they are in it to the bitter end. Getting everyone else to defeat their 20%-30% at best of the population is the only move.

        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.
