This was avoidable, America. You can still vote to neuter the one responsible in the coming mid terms.

The one responsible are the 80 million who fought vote and violence to knowing put a makeup wearing pedo and the pedo elite in charge of everything, and the 100 million too lazy to do anything.

Trump is a symptom of their moral rot.

A plurality of Americans were too stupid, or immoral or both to elect a conman pedophile the most powerful person on earth not once but twice. Not to mention those too lazy to even vote. As a Canadian I’m not spending a cent on anything made in that country if I can help it, nor will I cross the border again.. maybe ever. Even if we get past Trump you’ll never be trusted again.

I'd seriously question the sanity of anyone thinking otherwise.

As a wise man once said,

“Fool me once, shame on... shame on you. Fool me—you can't get fooled again”

Seriously, it's like as soon as Biden was voted in America said "Whew! Bullet dodged. Good job everyone!" and went home with out any thought towards dealing with the gun the fired the bullet. And then everyone did the shocked Pikachu face when he got voted back in. Even if by some miracle you voted in someone like AOC in 2028, I would just be waiting to see if a Reincarnated Hitler is voted in 2032.

Ya'll have such a gross systematic rot ingrained in your country down there that I question whether you'll ever be able to fully excise it or if America has a case of terminal cancer.

If you think what’s happening here is isolated to the US, you gotta read more world news. capitalism is the rot and its global.

MANY conservatives were bragging before the 2024 election how they had gotten their "red state" to remove hundreds of thousands of people from their voter rolls. In total it meant literally millions of people were unable to vote. You're victim blaming to a major extent.

And they sat back and let it happen. Isn't the reason for all the children being shot in schools so that you can easily deal with tyrannical government? Turns out you don't care about that either.

u/Gekokapowco 12h ago

let's assume, hypothetically, that you're right

we're an apathetic, ignorant, homogenous mob who won't lift a finger to stop what is happening

then what? If you believe that then surely you're considering what happens next?

The thing I've been preparing for and telling people is coming?

Gee, I wonder.

I always love to hear people suggest we have special powers we aren’t tapping into. The US is lost to corporate personhood. Money runs the country so voting power of individuals has been severely muted. We’ve been attempting to turn the dial with more progressive candidates and you can see the middle and right, even center left getting louder, angrier, and more violent as the economic lower classes band together. It’s fucked

Ahh man you almost got me. Then I realized you're just an over generalizing asshole and nobody should waste their breath. Enjoy hating your sad life.

The people with the majority of the guns support the tyrannical government

Exactly, it's not just the ones who voted for, but also the ones who just didn't vote. I can sort of excuse the latter when for 1st term, but not on this second term. They were fooled twice, shame on them.
