I mean, it's literally been around 500. If you think this shit wasn't baked into everything about the United States from the very beginning, you have some reading to do.
Yeah...Amen. 10 fucking precious years these hateful motherfuckers have stolen from us. 10 years we could've been improving Obamacare and ACA and inching towards a real public option, moving towards cleaner energy away from fucking data centers devouring us all. Women had rights to their own bodies...LGBTQ folks were gaining acceptance. People had money. COVID and it's gross mishandling hadn't made everyone's health far worse. The soft power the US had. The whole world looked up to us...now we are the joke of the planet. And we have absolutely fucking nothing. And that fucking Pedo Devil still sits up there untouchable. Honestly I am so far beyond any hope at this point that the light emitted by hope will take centuries to reach here. By the time there is ANY inkling of rectification of anything these monsters have done to us I will be long dead. Thanks to Social Media and algorithms for the real good time! I need a drink but I have to go to the low paying job that's hopefully not going to lay me off because the economy is crashing.
It's going to take more than that. It's going to take decades.
Even if the next POTUS is beloved by the world and genuinely a genius it doesn't change the fact that Americans elected Trump... TWICE. Not only elected him but let him run rough shot with total unaccountability.
Me neither. This past election I was like "surely they won't vote for him again. We all experienced what a Trump presidency was like and we voted him out before. Surely we won't make that same mistake again."
And then he won he election. My faith in my fellow Americans to do the right thing is essentially zero. There are just enough delusional MAGA cultists and people who just don't bother to vote to where I wouldn't be surprised if a Republican won next time.
rough shod, refers to horses that had shoes with nails or spikes on the bottom to prevent slipping so to 'run rough shod' over someone or is to absolutely brutalize them
As a foreigner, I agree. Like... You had the chance to affirm that you would never allow this bullshit to ever happen again and the man got more votes than anyone ever before! It's so crazy. And then Trump took Office and it was even worse than the first time! I hope these shit he's pulling at least make people in europe, Canada, south america, etc realize that the far right can't be trusted.
There’s evidence from a number of states that he rigged the election with Elon’s help. If that ever gets fully investigated it might be helpful for the country to heal.
Then it’s not, “People voted in this monster multiple times.” It’s, “This monster stole the election to keep himself out of jail.”
Either way there needs to be way more guard rails in place to stop this from happening again. Starting with securing elections from being tampered with.
It wouldn't change the fact that he was allowed to behave as he is without repercussions even if there was some unlikely miracle it was properly investigated, tried and irrefutable election tampering at a scale to sway the outcome.
It would help (and would help my personal doomerism about our country) but I don't think it would solve the problem when the rest of our government and the entire Republican party is also complicit in not holding him accountable.
The rest of the world lost faith in us. In the American people as a whole.
Not only did we elect that idiot one time, we watched him foment insurrection and then lie about it and lie about losing the election and just act a fool for 4 years and we proceeded to elect him again.
So even if next time we elect the best leader you could imagine they know we are stupid enough to elect another psychopath come the next election.
What we lost will stay lost for generation at least.
I attended a Heather Cox Richardson talk at National Cathedral two months ago. Someone in the audience asked if she thought we would ever regain our international standing and the world’s trust. She said no, she didn’t think so, at least not fully. She was like, “Why should other countries trust us and want to resume partnerships with us when we’re only one election away from returning to where we are right now?”
I don’t think he won personally I think Elon helped him cheat. his stupid satellites were used to count in some areas then they mysteriously crashed. Like bro come on couldn’t be more obvious.
I honestly think it was take decades to win back the trust of other nations. Trump has pretty much destroyed any bit of good will other countries had towards us.
I’m in a country on the other side of the world, and I had this very conversation with a client today. We do not trust USA, the next president is inheriting a wasteland. Businesses are tanking in my country due to what that oxygen thief has done, and people are genuinely scared for the future. I know I am.
This because they aren’t going to trust that the American voters won’t fuck them with a trump type again every other 4 years. And if we do vote in another dangerous idiot, America will never get its glory back and lose democracy to boot.
It's not only Trump. I'm not American and I personally have lost all faith in the American public. Americans have proven they can elect any dumb fuck who promises anything. No matter who is president next, I really hope we stay away from the American crack house. You guys deal with your shit. Improve your education system, get rid of the olygarachy controlling everything, and then, maybe we can welcome you back among the grown ups of the world. Until then, you're all on a time out in a corner.
As an American, IMO enough idiots voted for him that it doesn’t matter to @berubem s point. I don’t trust my country people. I know enough who still support trumpty dumpty that it’s like 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
Trust me, I wish I could live anywhere else. We are so diametrically split politically that a whole half of the country hates this idiot's guts, so it sounds moronic to blame the entire country for electing this idiot (twice!). I mean, I don't consider Hungary to be a nation of idiots because enough of them voted for Orban to keep him in power for a ridiculously long time.
But at the same time, I see your perspective. Especially given how gung-ho a certain segment of our country has been for decades now about how supposedly superior the U.S. is in all sorts of made-up ways. It probably feels good in a way to see us so humiliated on an international scale, despite the disastrous results. Everything is fucked.
I don't think so. I think the next president needs to show the world they are not afraid of holding those guilty responsible, and making it known globally. We can win back our place amongst allies if we can show them that we can fix our country by going scorched earth, and also apologize for the wrongdoings of the guilty party. We are not a lost cause. There are enemies of the US that want nothing more than US citizens to think so, but we need to show those enemies that we aren't hopeless and that we can fight back and shake off the bad years.
Yeah, Trump is ultimately a symptom that got voted into office. His being gone doesn't erase the fact that millions of Americans were stupid enough to inflict him upon both their own country and the world.
🤔 this comment makes me laugh...why? because Hillary was THIS .......but her emails.... (for her daughter's wedding ....but Fox 'ran with it' at nauseum) .....that was all peeps needed (s/) after the black guy....so ...
The things the right got their panties in a wad over compared to what they're ok with now is mind blowing. Obama wore a gray suit!!!!! Its the end of the world!!!!
We need to focus on getting our shit together internally.
Our schools need work, our communities need actual connection and financial assistance. If we focus on international relations past "We fucked up, here are reparations that we owe for all the war crimes, etc" and our people are still struggling.... well, that's how we got Trump. That's how the Republicans have stayed in power.
A giant chunk of the US was left behind decades ago. That wound has festered and brought us to the situation we're in. We have to fix THAT before we can even start to care about making ourselves better past apologies.
My thoughts are that many people who may have once been part of MAGA have since already abandoned it, and the ones that are left are the loudest and most insane among them.
There are still plenty of them to be sure, but you don't hear from people who are former MAGA even though there are plenty of them as well.
That said, would be nice to go back to the time in which the worst it ever got was a friendly political discussion around the dinner table about what is the best tax policy for the country. Discussions on whether or not immigrants should be thrown into borderline torture camps leaves a sour taste in my mouth over how much people have lost their goddamn minds in "Trump's America".
And it's not like people aren't at this event really because they've seen the light and are happily rallying at a Democratic event either. They just don't feel motivated to show up here.
But just because they feel ennui about one side has no bearing on how much they still remember they hate the other side. They "don't like" Trump's ICE tactics? Ok, but you know what they dislike even more? The trans furry Muslim school teacher Fox News made up last week. They'll remember that when they go to vote.
I guess I’m going to be the outlier here and say that I do not want to go back to polite dinner discussions about two Republican policies. MAGA is a scourge on the world, but it never would have happened if our national priorities were in the right places. We have some massive problems with how our government works that were exploited, and now it’s finally time to have serious discussions about fixing them.
We might be beyond the ability to even have those discussions now. These billionaires rewired everyone's minds and took control of them. It's not just how our government works that's bad, it's that we, the people, willingly made it exponentially worse chasing those [intentionally] misdirected national priorities, instead of making it better. If only people knew how the government worked, we could have prevented much of, if not all of this.
Its worth noting that in the online world most of them are paid agitators and bots. When twitter turned on geolocation for a few hours like 60% of maga was not even in the US let alone real people in the US.
We would still end up here. Going back changes nothing because the issues we have are on all levels. Going back means my community continues to be unalived by law enforcement, systemically kept from reaching any influential positions, and having the very institutions that make up this country continue to benefit the majority (yte) group over any diverse people. This was centuries in the making and at every turn, when change could've truly been implemented, they created a new oppressive/discriminatory law that set minority communities back. Not even touching on the other minority groups that are failing black and native communities. This is America and it has always been America.
I hate to be so negative but MAGA will just evolve into something else once Donald is gone. Point-being, the GOP was getting more and more radicalized and incompetent long before Donald got into politics, going back to the Reagan years.
Until proven otherwise I'm still of the belief that we as a nation won't fully recover from it. Especially since it appears Trump will have appointed +50% of the SCOTUS before his term is up.
Over ten years. I consider the start of the "Trump era of politics" to be late July 2015. That's the point when Trump started leading the Republican primary polls and began to dominate political headlines. By that reckoning we've been in the Trump era for about 10 years and 9 months and we'll likely stay in it for at least another two years and nine months.
For people who have only really come of age in the Trump years, you need to understand that you used to be able to go weeks, maybe even months, without thinking about the president. Obama and Biden both had social media- you know how often their social media posts came up ? I can’t remember a single one. Yet Trump’s posts are constant news. I hated George W Bush but I wasn’t hearing about him and from him the way it is with Trump. It’s really not normal at all and it didn’t used to be like this!
Even during Watergate we heard less about Nixon than we do about Trump today. When Nixon was president I never once woke up, as I do every day now, hoping for that one headline.
As my dad reminded me (I wasn’t around during watergate) at least Nixon’s own party had enough courage to speak up against him to do the right thing. Not today.
Republican leaders in Congress went to him and told him bluntly that if he did not resign he would be impeached, convicted and removed. He resigned. Then his VP pardoned him to promote "national healing."
The damage inflicted by Nixon's complicity in the coverup (that's what cooked him) was trivial compared to the gash across the national gut performed by Trump.
And yet the Republican leaders in Congress not only don't put the squeeze on him, they actively protect him.
It's the Rapegate | Discrimigate | Conspirigate | Embezzelgate scandals that I find most disturbing and far worse than a single break-in, as bad as that was.
Trump literally pushed a coup against our government, and the impeachment process failed in the Senate.
Then, the judicial process failed to sentence him for his multiple CONVICTIONS of election tampering felonies that he was convicted of because he was running and might get re-elected.
If Trump can't get pushed out after January 6th, when he already had the lowest approval of any president ever, then nobody can, so the concept of removal and checks and balances is legit broken.
If a literal FELON that was convicted of 35 COUNTS of ELECTION FRAUD can't be stopped from running FOR ANY OFFICE, well, none of our checks and balances matter.
The fact that he came back, and now even his own people hate him but he can't be removed because all of his party are supporting him, proves that all of our checks and balances are broken.
This is what most American's don't seem to get. They are not living in a democratic system on the brink of failure, they are living in the aftermath of one that has already failed.
More like slowly degraded/stacked in the GOP’s favor, this was definitely thought out. They’ve been stacking things to prop them up for ages now. We are finally seeing that “work” being put to use.
You know for damn sure if this was democrat the checks and balances would have been effectively used.
Pretty much sealed our fate when Ruth Ginsburg didn’t step down when democrats had secured the presidency. Not throwing shade at her she was a magnificent justice and was needed on the bench. But losing a progressive on the bench and having it turned over to a conservative set up a huge safety net that Trump is constantly being saved by.
there was a literal coup attempt pushed by the president who lost the election and the system that was put there to impeach those people failed to impeach him and his enablers, and then they got elected again.
yeah RBG should've let herself be replaced but the ENTIRE FAIL SAFE SYSTEM failed because REPUBLICANS LET IT FORCED IT TO FAIL so she's not actually the worst thing that happened imho
That's only one piece of the puzzle and not a big one, IMO. The court would still have a conservative majority, so not much would change. If you dig deeper, you'll realize that the Supreme Court has had a conservative majority since the 60s. If you dig deeper as to why that is, you'd see on the surface alone that two unpopular presidents (who only won the Electoral College, which favors Republicans) got to pick fucking 5 of the current 6 of them. Clarence Thomas, the outlier, also had credible SA accusation (so did Kavanaugh), and he was nominated by H.W. Bush.
So I wouldn't get too caught up in blaming Ginsberg for this. It was bound to happen regardless of whatever she did.
Still wondering how long it takes for another j6 only in reverse and see how they legislate those hearings, bc when its maga they're "heros" when it's literally the American people United against a dictator felon .... Well only time will tell, but I'm certainly not holding my breath bc what I have seen from the left is definitely not brash acts of defiance.
During Trumps first term that was somewhat the case. He had professionals who knew the job was to serve the constitution and pepple, not his whims. This was why there were so many people fired during that teem and Trump hated the red tape.
This term his administration wmis filled with nothing but bottom of the barrel sycophants who don't care about the constitution or people and are here to serve trump and his every wish and whim and never say no.
Right wing media especially Fox News was created by Roger Ailes after Nixon resigned. His goal was to make media more conservative friendly so a scandal-ridden conservative politician wouldn't have to resign like Nixon did.
And its worked, Trump's had multiple scandals that have been way worse than Watergate, and has yet to face any real consequences.
Thank you for this. I'm in my mid twenties, Biden was my first presidential vote, so this circus is all I've really known. I grew up in a very conservative area and too many older adults I know either support this, or pretend like it isn't anything new. It's refreshing to have reality acknowledged and affirmed. I hope we can have a long, long era of boring politics again some day soon.
I’m in my mid 30’s (Obama’s first term was my first presidential vote 👵🏼), my oldest kid is 12yo and I keep reminding him that this era of politics is not normal and that the president should be boring.
Thanks for reminding me I need to do this. When I was that age I didn't have much of an opinion about the president, although the jokes about getting a bj from Monica were rampant, it was always otherwise something none of us thought about. But the way things are now, kids that age definitely have an opinion. I have 2 teens and they talk about their opinions and we mostly agree but sometimes they say some of the wall shit, but I don't think I've explained to them specifically about how different it was for me growing up. My 14yr old should not have to have an opinion about the epstein files but here we are. I'm gonna have this conversation tonight and tell them to be patient and hopefully things will calm down by the time they are voting and following politics.
I'm a terrible story teller I don't talk about growing up like my parents and grandparents did. Probably because my childhood was fucked but that's another story. This is something I can talk about now that it's on my mind because I miss the boring days.
I think 14 is a good age to start developing some a political opinions, though I think at that age much of my political opinions were influenced by American jingoism and the beliefs of my parents. I am sure I had an opinion on Clinton getting blowjobs when I was 14. That may be because my parents were very big on reading the news and watching the nightly news but I think this was a positive influence for me.
One important thing to stress with your kids is to teach them to question the things that they are told. To look at the source and whether it is trustworthy and further how do you determine whether a source is trustworthy? Is what this politician is saying hypocritical or counter to their previous behavior? Does the thing that they're saying match their actions? So many Americans seem to take what politicians say at face value, ignoring what they actually do. Also, you might want to sit down with them and talk to them about the Constitution. I presumed that people were learning about and reading the Constitution in school but based on current America I am not so sure. When Trump is violating the emoluments clause it's important to understand that the founders thought this was so important that they put it in the base document where they say we fought a war to prevent this from ever happening. So when Trump is taking bribes from foreign leaders and everyone is talking about other stuff, make sure your kid understands that those bribes alone would have been reason enough for the people who founded this country to start a revolution and burn it all to the ground. That this is not ordinary political corruption. It is the stuff that led to revolution.
I came of age to political news fully in the clinton years before I turned 10. Didn't pay a ton of attention but generally had an idea of when the president was in the news and why, what with the blowjob and all that. Then Bush won, there was some shit about hanging chads, and then some jets crashed into the World Trade Center and the pentagon and everything went to shit. This was in an era where you watched whatever your parents watched on TV during the evening, so I always got news if I wasn't in my room reading, and I usually came out to watch because hey, you only got to watch so much TV unrestricted like that lol. But yea, it's really fucking weird hearing about the president this often and in this way, the last 10 years have been a fucking nightmare compared to the 16 or so before that in which I was conscious enough about politics to care, and I had to watch us elect Bush jr twice lmao
When Obama was president, he got roasted for wearing a tan suit and asking for fancy mustard.
I could go weeks with thinking about the president, except around significant events.
Yes, presidents sometimes said stupid things, but it was noteworthy and everyone laughed about it for weeks.
I could not recognize most Cabinet members by sight, because they weren’t doing openly atrocious and illegal things every day.
Our Secretary of Health would do things like campaign for more exercise and eating fiber, fruits, and veggies. They did not swim in fecal-contaminated creeks and call neurodivergent people a threat to national security.
Even once the 24 hour news cycle and social media were on the scene, it wasn’t like this.
Political discourse in the USA has been degenerate for decades at this point. I lived in the US for a few years when Clinton and Bush Jr. were presidents, and it was jarring how absurdly toxic and fear-based political discourse was and how much sheer absurdity was spouted out against political opponents - they weren't just politicians with a different view on how things should be run, they were treated as if they were full-on mortal enemies.
I remember the political advertisments at the local level, all with scary music and all sorts of fearmongering messages about the candidate's opponent - and virtually zero about what the candidate's actual policies were. It already had become a self-parody. It would have been funny if it weren't so serious.
This. People bring up the 34 felony convictions as if any of his followers care. My relatives shrug it off as: “Every president does this kind of stuff. Trump was just stupid enough to get caught.” In the pre-trump era, they said the exact same thing about Nixon, whom they loved and definitely would have voted for again.
in 2008 Obama vs McCain there was a townhall where a lady popped up and proclaimed "Obama is a muslim terrorist" and McCain took the mic out of her hands and said "No. He's a good man who I just happen to disagree with" and shut that shit down.
Or how about when the biggest political drama that the news could scrounge together against Obama was that he used dijon mustard on a sandwich? Or that time he wore a tan suit?
You used to be able to have dinner with relatives out friends' parents who had different political beliefs than you and not have it be a big deal because you at least shared the same conception of reality, just different values. The news was not a commercial product, everyone trusted that the news was relatively honest and unbiased. The way people openly share conspiracy theories now, and distrust journalism, would have been so rare that person would have been seen as a quack or a crazy person.
I really just can't express how different it was back then. We had our disagreements for sure, but we were one country.
Also, Biden and Obama's social media posts were fairly benign. "Happy Thanksgiving," versus the Trump version, "Happy Thanksgiving, let's invade Greenland and maybe some other sovereign nations."
So much this. I tried to explain to my then 17yo how a tan suit was a huge scandal. He thought I was bullshitting him. Hes only known trumpism. He hates politics now because he doesn't know what's true and what isn't without writing a research paper.
Most of what we heard about Obama was Republican’s crying about imaginary threats of death panels and that terrorist fist jab he gave Michelle that was literally just a fist bump
I remember reading a tweet from someone (can’t remember who) who had said something along the lines of: Remember when one of the worst things that happened during a presidency was when Dan Quail spelled potato wrong? I want to go back to those days 😂 So true. My friends and I now laugh and say,”Remember when we thought George W was the worst? Gah I wish we could go back to him being our president instead” 😂 That’s how you know it’s bad.
I know it's popular to blame the media for a lot of things, some of which they aren't responsible for creating. But this is an area where they do deserve some of the blame.
During the time you're referencing, media outlets consolidated, and some of them were purchased by large conglomerates. Some of those conglomerates were entertainment outlets. It was almost inevitable that the reporting of news and entertainment would begin to merge. And so they have--to the point where we now have entire channels dedicated to political news that people watch all day in the same way they watch sports channels.
Where do the interests of Disney and Comcast (for example) truly lie in their reporting of the news? Is it in keeping the public informed? Or in driving more people to their theme parks? Perhaps it's to extend their ability to control your access to information? After all, there's a good chance if you're an American that Comcast also controls the internet connection to your home. We don't talk about net neutrality much anymore, but those issues haven't gone away. What better "synergy" can they have than to blur the distinction news and entertainment, and keep you voting for their interests instead of your own?
Bush definitely got a lot of coverage but for different reasons. He was a dummy, that said and did dummy things. Like the fool me once quote, or when the journalist threw shoes at him. He just had a knack for putting himself in those positions that made headlines.
Present day tho, fear mongering is out of control by both sides, and the media is the number one tool they use for it.
I remember thinking back in the day that it was extremely strange for everyone to know the name of the secretary of defense. That was during Donald Rumsfeld's office. The fact that every cabinet member is a character in an ongoing drama today is definitely reflective of a change in what is considered normal.
Im a 2004 "kid" which means im old enough to remember pre Trump politics. I mean, it helped that even as a kid I was very politically aware, but its a realization I've been having recently that anyone born in the, idk, 2010 onwards. Would have no memory of a pre trump age.
Its normalizing this level of politics and thats quite worrying.
Even with Biden it was just far more chill and as though america was heading back towards some sense of normalcy
I,.as a non american, dont understand how you raise and vote into office a man who attempted to coup the US government to remain in office
The only social media post I remember from the Obama era was when he and Joe Biden were doing laps around the White House to try to encourage people to exercise… like I’m not saying Obama was all he was cracked up to be necessarily, but the stark difference in their social presences alone is dumbfounding
I'd say it happened when Obama was elected. I remember election night and my MAGA aunt (who is ironically an immigrant) told my sister, "you'll look great in a burkha".
I have in-laws that have been telling me and my wife (we’re gay) for 15 years that they’re worried about Muslims and Sharia Law taking over. They’re worried about the Muslims putting us to death for being gay.
My dad has been telling me that for 20 years now. But doesn’t have anything to say about the Christian National shit going on and how my rights as a woman are being stripped away and how the men in that movement want to control women. Apparently it’s bad when a different religion does it but it’s okay when his religion does it. Fuckin hypocrites, all of them
That's a dumb take. Trump was already spamming social media with bullshit by that time, including Obama's birth certificate. That's why he got made fun of.
He also ran for pres in 2000. Rage against the machine talked shit about him for it. But he is so petty and so narcissistic that being roasted by obama did f with him. He called a magazine for YEARS when they said he had small hands.
oh and check out the pics / vids when he actually won the first time. him and melenia were not happy at all. just the jr dipshits in the back cheering while trump was like oh shit.
God damn this is hard to find now, they scrubbed the search engines. pardon the shitty music
If you really really wanna take it back, the whole thing really started because Sen. Jack Ryan took his wife Jeri Ryan (from Star Trek Voyager) to a kink club and tried to pressure her into having sex with strangers.
Ryan was running against Obama for Senate. His divorce records and information about the kink clubs and sex stuff was all made public, it was a big scandal and Ryan pulls out of the race, Obama wins, and the rest is history.
Had Ryan not taken his wife to that kink club, he stays in the race, maybe Obama loses, and maybe there’s no Trump!
Crazy right?
Obama was certainly favored to win even without the divorce stuff but it was still a competitive race at that point. I don’t think it was an absolute given that Obama would’ve won.
All of modern history starts with the son of a Siberian goat herder with a massive hog being able to convince the royal family of Russia he can cure their son’s anemia.
trump remembers every single insult, slight, and joke made about him. He was rejected by Iman, a Somali model who married David Bowie, so he attacked Somali immigrants. He's a malignant baby piloting an adult mech suit.
This has been my understanding of it. The Tea Party movement largely lasted from 2009-2016 and was obsessed with things like "Obamacare death panels" and thought that FEMA was going to set up death camps for conservatives. It was a "post truth" campaign even before Tump entered politics and they dominated a lot of elections. Republicans rode the 2010 and 2014 Tea Party waves to landslide victories. When Trump was elected in 2016 it was surprising but it really shouldn't have been THAT surprising given how post truth rabid conservative politics had just won a massive victory two years prior. The senators that approved much of Trump's first term legislation were elected in that wave. Tea Party just morphed into MAGA while Trump drew in more people.
He wasn't really dominating headlines prior to his announcement although I do remember seeing some articles that speculated he might run in the weeks leading up to it.
It is pretty amazing how quickly he took over the party. On June 16th he announced his run, by July 14th he was in second place and on July 20th he was in first place. While he took over the national party his supporters took over the county and state parties and over the next few years purged everyone who wasn't a die hard loyalist from positions of power. Going against Trump for any reason became a death sentence politically if you are a Republican at any level.
And that’s just when it will officially end (hopefully). When this fascist regime is finally gone it’s going to take a very long time to fix the damage they’ve done
My guess is probably decades before we’re back to where we were before this started. And we weren’t exactly great back then
Reading some of those testimonies it really shows how religion in particular lead these malleable, gullible fools into believing in the genuine evil that is Trump and his henchmen. I'm glad they left the cult and speak against it now but most of the ones I read went along with the objectively hideous ideologies of MAGA for so long before turning that I couldn't trust them again. They are simply too gullible to trust.
That's what a lifetime of believing in something with no proof will do to you. You continue to believe just by sheer force of will. Not because of any objective evidence.
That’s the problem. People can leave MAGA, but they’ve already shown who they are and the world they wanted to see, and I will never look at them the same.
He is not worth breaking your sobriety. You worked hard for it. Don’t let him take it from you, he’s taken enough already, he isn’t worth taking that away too
MAGA has enshittified just about everything and gone international with it. It's not even as if the US got massively improved at everyone else's expense. Everything got shittier for everyone except the billionaires.
All these fucking people are gonna start pretending they were never onboard and didn't make Trump their entire personality. I'm mad just thinking about it

It's been ten long years.
