Just go on a trip every birthday. It works for me.
Slow down, my friend. First, recognize that women have and do vote Republican, too. As their friends or other women in their communities have to deal with horrible situations that are even vaguely similar to these, you can imagine how quickly their views are going to shift.
Actually, you don't even have to imagine it. You can just look at some of the data we've seen from early voting around the country. It turns out that when you have laws that f*** over women in obvious and horrible ways, a lot of women react negatively to it. A fair amount of men, too.

The second graph supports the general claim, with several countries ranging between a quarter and half as much as US costs. We can take a look at that graph and see that $10,000 figure for the US, and then go look at the $2,500-3,000 range and find several countries there that have much longer lifespans.
Both Israel and South Korea have universal health care but of course the details for everything are highly relevant. Anyway, I think we can safely say that your conclusion above, that the US system is not four times as bad as a universal system, is presumably false, based on the Israel counterexample.
The employees are more important than the boss. So yeah, I do count those jobs and feel it means something significant. Also, what does "logical" even mean to you? If the boss cut his own pay, he could have kept the employees. That's just as logical, isn't it? So you're not talking about logic, are you.
If you want to talk about values, let's do it. Please explain why multi millionaires (and richer) matter more than everyone else. Please.
Even if everything you wrote is true, none of it applies to the United States because we have the electoral college. Sorry, but it's not Europe, and we have our own weird system.
First, don't panic. Harris and her staff, and Democrats around the country, they have planned for many shady actions on Trump's part. Details are scarce because they don't want Trump staff to have a heads up.
And then everything depends on the details.
But remember, anything that looks like a coup d'etat could easily get the military or spy agencies involved. And if they move, it doesn't matter what SCOTUS says. As a result, it's very hard to predict what would happen in various extra dramatic situations. There is no precedent; precedent wouldn't mean anything anyway.
Not clear that Trump ever had that lead. Lots of doctored numbers in 2022 and 2024. But I don't expect Fortune to cover that well.
Raising questions? No. The only question is how far, how much, how many people will die.
It's probably church and shopping habits, not luck.
Prison? ...No. You're just wrong. That's bad no matter what.
That's not what the Supreme Court said, though. Only official acts have absolute immunity. Murder is not usually an official act.
And as always, if you're talking about a coup d'etat, the question is if the military or spy agencies will kill you before, during, or after it. When the rule of law is out the window, you must expect physical violence.
Oh I don't think you get to paint the church in a positive light. It's been a very long time, if ever, since organized religion has been a positive force in the United States.
