The world is now reversing course to reject Trumpism
(www.salon.com)
Headlines like this are for protecting the oligarchy. We all get involved until our lawmakers aren't old rich people. We pass laws that require oversight and transparency. We protect those institutions and laws that serve democracy with our lives.
Can we sequester him? In the dirt, please?
Ironically the crazy economic shitstorm that Trump made might just be the wakeup call the world needed. Hopefully he doesn't get to reach the whole mass murder stage of his plans.
But is it really?
I can't assuredly say we have beat conservative populism yet, but we are at least bringing competence to government.
The issue we haven't solved is that many young people now are coming of age upon a platter of socially engineered falsehood.
Great news for 'the rest of the world' but I'd prefer not to deal with this shit here for 4 years as well god dammit.
That might be the silver lining to all this
You're welcome rest of the world. Now be nice to those of us who have to suffer another 4 years.
As long as you voted against him, yes.
If someone said "oh they're both the same" or "Kamala didn't make her position clear enough on ______" or any of the other excuses, they need to bear the full brunt of their (in)decision.
I've zero sympathy for those fools.
both parties are the same in many ways doesn't mean I voted for trump I voted Harris. I knew Trump's hate was worse than the Dems obliviousness

Hopefully, Trump and his pals cause other nations to say "The Heritage Foundation is a terrorist organization." Just because Heritage doesn't directly kill people, doesn't change the fact that they will dismantle the world's universal healthcare, food standards, and more just to make some rich person feel good.
in the future the trope is going to be "I'm going back in time to k--- Tr--p" and everyone has to stop them because it would mean the great global awakening would never happen
Something, something, Dune.
I wouldn't give Trump the credit for this. Yeah he is a great example of how bad it can get but the move to the left has been long on its way and picking up speednfornsome time! Trump may have boosted a snowball that was already rolling
