I don't know if they realize the degree to which they have destroyed the legitimacy of liberal democracy (hexbear.net)

Do they think people will just move on from the fact that their entire ruling class is in a cabal of Zionist pedophiles? They may get away with it, in fact they probably will, but it will always be at the back of the mind. For everyone.

I don't think it matters to them, tbh I'm expecting the midterms to be the deathblow to US liberal democracy. ICE agents are gonna be terrorizing swing districts if not outright raiding voting centers, and I can't imagine that the current Trump & co. would honor results that they know will strip of them power. Idk, just feels like the current Trump coalition is pretty deadset on ending liberal democracy, and that's gonna include ignoring/throwing out any election results they don't like.

Im not an American. Do you believe Trump would/could run for a 3rd term and win ? I guess thats the question since that would be the most blatant death of liberal democracy I could imagine.

Mind you I dont think it matters thaaaat much. Republicans could just run a lot less charismatic candidate like Vance and fix the elections as you said. Would give them the out that the elections were / are fair even if its bullshit.

I guess it comes down wether the people in power wanna play pretend that the USA is still a democracy (which does come with a number of benefits in the west)

if trump won in 2020 like his supports claim this is already his 3rd term

i think he'll die before 2028.

yeah the problem with all this speculation about 2028 is it ignores that he is 80 years old and believes exercise is bad for you. but then again i thought biden was gonna be dead by the end of 2021 and he just beat cancer.

Unlike with Juche Necromancy, Imperialist Necromancy cannot bring you back to life once you've died. But every time a working class person dies to make line go up, milliseconds are added to the unnatural lifespan of the practitioner.
