  Oh no, no… Trust in America is gone forever, no matter who wins. Because American people have demonstrated (twice) that they can choose someone like Trump as a president. The world won’t be waiting anxiously for the next Trump. We’ll move on.

    I wouldn’t say forever. But it will take a long time to rebuild.

      It’ll take decades. Trust is hard to gain but easy to lose.

    What is unique to American people? I easily foresee the next Trump from any country.

    Especially if they have the same bad voting system of “pick the the lesser evil”. Do that enough times and you can get worse than Trump.

      What’s is unique is the amount of trust granted. That won’t happen again.

  Even if the electios are free in fair, I don’t think he’d be done in November.

  The only way he’s “done” is if GOP loses every single last senate seat up for grabs. Every single one in Nebraska, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Kansas, Oklahoma, South Dakota, West Virginia, Florida, Texas, etc.

  Hell, most analysts think that Democrats don’t have a realistic chance of even getting a simple senate majority, let alone a veto-proof one or even a filibuster proof one.

  If they don’t then they cannot remove anyone from office, they cannot override vetos. Yes, they can decline to pass bills, but given their stance of ‘executive branch has supreme power’, they’ll just do illegal executive orders and ignore the courts unless the supreme court agrees with them. Trump is already declared immune from any and all crimes except by the Senate and has the ability to pardon any and all federal cases, and that’s assuming his own enforcement agencies even bother trying to punish anyone…

  I’m sure the Democrats will select a top-tier candidate for us like Gavin Newsom in 2028. One of the most pressing issues in this country right now is there is a lot of hate against minority groups like billionaires and zionists, and a candidate like Newsom would work tirelessly to make sure these groups don’t have to live in fear.

    I think he’s corporate funded. Do t want that guy.

    Who is going to say nationalize seashores for all people to use, federal mandatory yearly vacations, universal healthcare - will get my vote.

    Is Gavin saying that?

      Guess sarcasm in writing doesn’t always work well. Newsom reminds me of Christian Bale in American Psycho, and honestly, I’d trust the character in that film over Newsom.

        Don’t worry, it was blatantly obvious.

  The oligarchs are all fascist Zionists with or without Trump. American tech can’t be trusted and the only real solution is public tech alternatives.
