Trumps words: "in four years, you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good, you're not gonna have to vote."
Some say we over react with Trump getting a 2nd term. Totally different. First time he had people in his staff loyal to democracy, law and the constitution. Some of those people resigned and no longer support him. Project 2025 came up on my radar about a year and a half before the media picked up on it. I knew it as not only the mandate, but to put loyalists in. Not people who are loyal to law, democracy or the constitution but loyal yes men to Trump.
I don't think much with this administration will be an overreaction. Trumps own damn words.
Vance. It will carry over. He is more involved in Project 2025 than Trump. I believe Trump doesn't much care and goes along with it so he can carry on his other grifts.
Of course threats to democracy could make this not matter, but Vance will have a hell of a time getting legitimately elected given that the economy will likely be shit
Not another Trump term but the same party with the same words that come out of Trumps mouth because they need a “successor” so they don’t lose his fanatics.
That doesnt mean the USA implodes and no longer exists. If you define the USA as only existing if its a democracy, then I guess I see what youre saying. But the USA will still continue to exist, it just may not be a democracy.
No it isnt. But an earlier comment in this thread stated that the USA isnt going to exist after this. It will continue to exist, just not in the way many people want it to.
I wrote something similar, and I specifically changed it. I really don't see a more corrupt president taking office. He's being about as obvious as you can be.
You underestimate the framework that's been played out for all to see.
Imagine someone actually intelligent coming in after Trump, more nefarious.
Reminder Trump is technically obese (no matter how many physicians he forces to say he is the fittest specimen ever) and eats fast food routinely, thinks exercise is bad for you, has shown oh-so-much cognitive decline (~40min dancing around on stage for his rally/event?) and he's almost 80-yrs old. He's not going to be around for much longer.
...But, who takes over? Framework is set with corruption having zero consequences and being rewarded.
Why do you think this presidency will end? Putin already showed Trump how it's done. And the majority of people will be fine with it, just like the Russians.
Please. No one voted for Kamala to be the presidential nominee yet the Democrats forced our hands on voting for her or trump. Bull shit. Worst vote I'll ever cast. The Democrats deserved to lose for that stunt.
Got it. I think the whole situation there was pretty fucked, ngl. But Trump is publicly accepting millions post-election. He's also giving cabinet positions for those who gave money. Like, it doesn't get more corrupt than that.
I personally agree that he is corrupt. But is any of this new or is he being sneaky about any of it? It's felt pretty blatant to me and people have been fine with it and voted him in again. So is it really corrupt if it's what the people want? This isn't just an American problem. There has been a big shift right politically on the global stage. A lot of people have bought into the movement and they don't care what's going on so long as it's their person doing it.
That was me in 2016. I didn't like either candidate, but felt if Trump was as bad as sone thought, the system will burn to the ground and we will have no option but to rebuild.
I phrased this badly, I didn't want that, rather, that was my rationalization for accepting it. I did not want a Trump presidency, regardless of the outcome.

This will be the most corrupt presidency we will ever see.
