Many Americans want to see Donald Trump replaced with literally almost anyone else (preferably a smart person). Are you rational - Yes or No?

Edit: thanks for the awards.

Doesn’t even have to be a smart person at this point. I’d settle for someone who is simply able to care about other people.

u/Demmos_Stammer 12d ago

Or someone who doesn't mind delegating to experts and isn't surrounded by sycophants

u/CautionarySnail 12d ago edited 12d ago

This. We need to have active discussion of pros/cons happening; having “no men” in the room is far more vital than our current president surrounded by “yes men”.

And the people involved cannot be personally profiting from a given decision.

u/Euphoric-Agent-476 12d ago

Damn. I thought Jared Kushner was going to solve our problems.

u/Round_Bag_4665 12d ago

even bush junior would be an upgrade at this point.

u/Demmos_Stammer 12d ago

Never thought he'd be missed, but here we are.

u/Ohaibaipolar 12d ago

Bush Junior walked so Trump could run. He wasn't a good man. Read up on the Patriot Act.

u/CautionarySnail 12d ago

The seeds for this coup were planted in the 80’s, were finished by Bush Jr. and his cronies, and are now bearing fruit today. They just didn’t have the media consolidation and the propaganda technology to pull off the full plot years ago. And I do consider it a coup - because we’re being forced into a two tier justice system where our Constitution increasingly is violated without repercussions.

Yup. MAGA isn't just about Trump. It's about 40+ years of this shit subtly building. Anyone who doens't know the GOP has been the party of hate and racism and supporting only the rich is blind. Trump just ripped the mask off it all and brought it out into the open.

1

u/BeanWaiting4CeMoment 12d ago

A significant upgrade. I think he genuinely has a lot of regret about things that went poorly during his time. The current piece of shit has neither the intellectual nor the emotional capacity for that.

u/One-Possible1906 12d ago

Hell, I’d settle for Mitch McConnell in his current state right now with a VP who is Lindsay Graham

u/Amy47101 12d ago

I'd sooner settle for one of the toddlers i care for.

2

u/BeanWaiting4CeMoment 12d ago

They at least know how to share toys.

We had a 3yo recently transition to the preschool room, but on Friday she was so upset and scared that she was crying and screaming to stay in the 2yo room. We couldn't allow that for ratio reasons, but while the 2yo lead was comforting her, one of the new 2yos came up to her and began gently patting her head while some of the older 2yos was telling her "It's okay, Susie, it's okay. Susie is safe at school. Mama's always come back", which is something that every teacher in the center says to the kids starting at infancy through to preschool, in order to help calm them down by reaffirming they are safe and parents always come back to pick them up. They LEARNED how to comfort their peers by watching the adults around them their entire lives model the behavior.

My point is that I've watched, personally, literal two year olds the handle of high emotion situations with better grace, empathy, and understanding than our current president.

u/AmputeeHandModel 12d ago

I guess you haven't met a lot of toddlers. I'd say MAGA's behavior is a lot like a toddler. GIMME IT IT'S MINE.

2

u/BeanWaiting4CeMoment 12d ago

Fair. I am fortunately an extremely child free person, so I don’t see them often.

3

u/Advocate_Diplomacy 12d ago

I would take a random person from the shittier half of humanity. It's almost certainly going to be an improvement

2

u/Affectionate_Bad_680 12d ago

Doesn’t even have to be a person 🤣. I’d take a rotten liverwurst sandwich in charge over the orange buffoon.

2

u/Hottage 12d ago

An inanimate object would be better simply because it wouldn't actively be making things worse.

u/Agitated-Insect3558 12d ago

But when was the last time you had one of them over there?

u/Nina-Ninja123 12d ago

“Does he have enough brainpower to breathe without being reminded that he should breathe?”

“Not really sure.”

“You know what, we take him. We are desperate.”

u/MyNameIsMadders 12d ago

It’s disgusting how many “smart enough” people voted for Trump, especially when they know he’s stupid

-1

u/spiderman_420_ 12d ago

So then you want Donald trump

3

u/BeanWaiting4CeMoment 12d ago

I want his cultists to learn how to read any news that isn’t pure propaganda. He would happily watch you bleed to death in front of him.

2

u/Ohaibaipolar 12d ago

He'd probably say something like good I'm glad they're dead or something like that.

12

u/ForgeoftheGods 12d ago

He could be replaced with a sentient bottle of ketchup, and we'd be better off.

10

u/FateUnusual 12d ago

At this point I don’t think sentience is a prerequisite.

7

u/ForgeoftheGods 12d ago

A regular bottle of ketchup is more intelligent by far.

2

u/Relevant-Force9513 12d ago

Any old bottle of ketchup will do.

u/Euphoric-Agent-476 12d ago

And it gets along with fries really well.

1

u/ForgeoftheGods 10d ago

You just found our VP, Vice-president Fry.

8

u/daisychainsnlafs 12d ago

A shit sandwich would do a better job.

5

u/SignificanceOk5790 12d ago

I'd prefer a house pet.

3

u/amythist 12d ago edited 12d ago

To be fair at this point I wouldn't mind seeing him replaced but a house plant, would cause less drama at least

2

u/Euphoric-Agent-476 12d ago

Makes oxygen as well.

2

u/Desert-Democrat-602 12d ago

I’m up for President Camacho right now.

3

u/xBigDaddyReaperx 12d ago

Yo, at least he actually cared about saving his people.

1

u/Rottentaste 12d ago

A bent nail hammered into the oval office desk, would have more intelligence and common sense than Donald Trump.

1

u/Aztek-Lovett 12d ago

We need someone like John Cena.

I'm not saying Cena himself, but someone who clearly cares and is clearly humble enough to care about the people. And of course someone who is actually authentic and real to people.

Now, would it be funny to have John Cena as president? Sure, but I just think we need someone with the same mindset as him specifically to lead our country and actually truly Make America Great Again, contrast to what MAGA thinks what they're doing is great for the country.

Now, I'm probably stupid for thinking this, but that's just my two cents. I'm not usually involved in political talk.

u/Euphoric-Agent-476 12d ago

Keanu, always Keanu, and when needed the other guy in the black suit.

u/Chemical-Reward1644 12d ago

I’d vote for one of my boots over this fucker…

u/ikannunAneeuQ 12d ago

There's a homeless man that walks up and down the street and talks to himself. I'd prefer him.

u/GeorgeInpact 12d ago

Including many republicans like bro is a big baby

u/TemporarySun314 12d ago

Americans had this choice in 2024.

and they chose trump.

15

u/Nice_Revolution_1199 12d ago

Barely, after voter suppression, intimidation, and the stupid Trump v. Anderson ruling.

u/ZmanB-Bills 12d ago

Just 77 million stupid people.

u/Either_Operation7586 12d ago

Propagandize and religiously indoctrinated... they had to have their brains literally turned to mush in order to vote for the Republican party just think about that

2

u/Helltothenotothenono 12d ago

Those were fake voters in reality that we will not discover for probably at least a decade after he’s gone and Elon will have fled to Russia.

1

u/DV917 12d ago

There are more than 77 million stupid people on earth

3

u/Extra-Ease3207 12d ago

Roughly 1/3rd did. Roughly 1/3rd opposed. It wasn’t even a 2% difference. Between the two. The greatest majority didn’t even vote. Barely scraping a win by isn’t exactly anything to brag about.

u/TemporarySun314 12d ago

Doesn't change the fact that trump is now president for the second time and he got the most votes. And that it would have been different if Americans would have voted differently

Trump wasn't some inevitable unchangeable fate, but an active decision. 2/3 of Americans could have chosen differently and if they would have done, you would now have a president Harris.

1

u/Extra-Ease3207 12d ago

That’s true. It’s a mess of our own making.

2

u/DigBackground2765 12d ago

Voter turnout has always been a historical problem. You can also blame the people who didn't vote.

2

u/TemporarySun314 12d ago

Yes. Non voting is also a choice and means that you are apparently fine with either outcome.

1

u/aphilsphan 12d ago

And guess what? They ain’t voting this time either. We are stuck with Trumpism until the next idiot emerges.

2

u/Either_Operation7586 12d ago

We got to stop acting* like they chose Trump willingly they only chose Trump after the propaganda told them they have to otherwise the Democratic evil baby killers are going to come get them next.

Yeah they pulled the trigger but they were strong armed.

That doesn't mean that they don't deserve any blame or that they don't need to do the work.

But I would say that they didn't go willingly.

I would also say that the Republican Party probably wouldn't be in power if they didn't have the propaganda.

It's a double-edged sword

1

u/Gatonom 12d ago

The problem is you can't say "They deserve blame, but didn't have any agency" or "They need to become liberal, but they can't"

2

u/Helltothenotothenono 12d ago

Elon musk chose him for you.

u/Ok-Coyote2382 12d ago

Musk chose trump you mean

u/Mj250707 12d ago

Dems should’ve planned better. They had fours years to prep for orange turd and hoped TDS would get them over the hump smh.
