Oof. Poor Americans. The 4 year shit show you're going to have to put up with.
Thing is, mate.....fascists rarely stay inside their boarders. This is going to be the whole world's problem in about 3 months.
Maybe for the rest of our lives, however long that is...
upside: maybe fashism will kill us all before climate does? yay?
With the fascist in power they're going to speed up the climate destruction
So maybe the fascist will kill us with the climate
yay?
I'm glad you guys are looking at the bright side of life 😊
🎶 Always look at the bright side of life.... 🎶
It's so bright I feel it in my retinas.
Tell me about it.
I'd rather eat rats and survive inside a hole in the ground in 45⁰C weather than die in a war, but that's just me.
Hey, no eating cute rats
Cute rats are more delicious because they are healthier!
Trump wants adulation, not conquest. Push come to shove you can get him out of the oval office by making him figurehead Emperor, as long as it comes with immunity he'll accept.
On a scale of Mussolini to Hitler, he's like 250% towards Mussolini.
Cute that you think it'll only last for 4 years.
4 years if laws and constitution stay the same and are followed.. first term he had people alienated into him who were at least slightly appropriated for their positions, this time people who has nothing to do with their positions are being appointed simply for being loyal to him... Let's see if any of them won't let him do anything drastic within 4 YEARS
Nah, most people are going to live their lives and see absolutely no effect from anything done. No single administration has the ability to totally fuck up the country in the amount of time they have. That's why you get the big swings back and forth between the two parties. Also, the news is very good at sensationalizing absolutely everything and making you think that, oh my god, it's the end of the fucking world. What are we going to do? Run around like chickens screaming with our heads cut off and shit.
We know that Ukraine will be betrayed by the Trump government. A Russian victory will embolden Russia to further threaten Europe. This will also embolden China and other authoritarian states.
We also know a Trump government will stop climate action. Unfortunately, this will also signal to many other governments that they can do the same.
We also know that immense cruelties will be perpetrated such as the family separation policy of the 1st Trump presidency
But yes, if you are white, straight and middle class or rich, you'll be able to think all is OK until such time as the authoritarian ascendancy led by China and Russia affects your own life, which might be a decade or more away.
How many people do you think would be affected by his deportation policies? I've heard a number of around 10 million, and that's 3% of the population, which, while absolutely terrible, means that the other 97% isn't going to really care.
Those 3% (going by your math):
Pick crops
Contribute $90 billion or more in tax for the county via sales tax.
Without those people, we have no food, and immediate inflation begins. You know, the thing everyone was bitching about that was literally caused by Trumps inaction on COVID.
This affects EVERYONE in the US.
Not to mention that the construction industry- particularly housing- just stops.
I know the last time he was in office his immigration policies made it impossible for some people families to come over. I worked with a couple people struggling with that.

Women in need of reproductive health services in red states would like a word.

What is wrong with you?
If you think this is the only reproductive healthcare that people are dying for lack of in the US, you have vastly overestimated your expertise of the subject matter.
Oh, I know. This is but one facet. And I am definitely not an expert.
Trump: "Hold my Diet Coke".
Rotflmao, you didn't read project 2025 🤣
People seem to be down voting you......but Trump was already elected before and quickly became irrelevant after his 4 years.
He ruined plenty of people's lives in that time, but he came and went before and one day he'll be out of office again. The world goes on.
And who is going to be the next US President?
And who is nominating a Russian asset to be DNI?
And who is nominating a child sex trafficker to be AG?
Dobbs and Chevron would disagree with your claim of “irrelevant”. You might not be aware, but that’s not the same thing…
Well, except for the people that are dead from his actions. For example, the ~461,000 people who died from COVID due to him making every wrong decision. For those people, it doesn't go on. Because they're dead.
