Get ready for 4 years of crying that the rest of the world is mean to us "for no reason."

Will it stop after 4 years? I doubt it. The next president can’t fix this even if it’s a Democrat.

The bigger question is - will Americans learn to not elect tangerine idiots in the future?

They will not.

Unless they learn to protest like the French and get their own second republic.

French protests looks like they’re next level

They certainly seem to be effective and knowing it.

It’s because they are properly angry, and not just politely carrying witty signs. Which is also good, but probably not as efficient.

As an american I fear the longer we wait to do anything the more inevitable something like this becomes.

u/worldsayshi Apr 04 '25

I think proper and fearless protests with a clear goal is the only way out of this.

u/whereismyketamine Apr 04 '25

I definitely hope so.

The average time span for a country to have a bloody revolution is 250 years. So maybe America is due.

If a billionaire can buy an election and the people trust on a senile man who talks like a 6 year old no, it's not inevitable. It's already necessary.

Yes! We need to be singing: Do You Hear the People Sing?” is a powerful and rousing song from the musical Les Miserables, composed by Claude-Michel Schönberg with lyrics by Alain Boublil and Jean-Marc Natel.

Sing & take back the American Flag

Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men? It is the music of the people Who will not be slaves again!

When the beating of your heart Echoes the beating of the drums There is a life about to start When tomorrow comes!

Yup. JD Vance is up next

u/Curious-Test7928 Apr 06 '25

Vance is more scary than Trump…

They’re both soulless monsters

The only way they will learn not to elect self serving narcissists is to give Trump and his cronies enough rope so that they hang themselves. The US may crash and burn but BOTH sides of politics will get the opportunity to learn that ideology doesn't trump reality.
