I just shudder imagining how much worse things would be under a 2nd Trump term. I think anyone who followed Trump was screwed from the beginning. They walked into so many problems (probably way more than we have ever heard about), a totally dysfunctional Congress (getting the bills that have passed through is a major miracle), and 35% of American living in a delusional cult as open enemies of anything he said or did. Add to all the worldwide issues boiling over and we have a recipe for disaster. Joe is simply not a good enough large scale communicator nor is he dyanamic enough to be the 21st century FDR style crisis leader.


I don't disagree with that but the way Trump has damaged things is almost impossible to recover from. didn't blow up systems...his rhetoric surrounding political opponents and differences destroyed trust in fellow Americans. If you didn't buy 100% into HIM, you were an enemy that must be gotten rid of. He made the fights about people. The divisions he sowed are as wide as the pacific ocean and will not be easily crossed.

Bingo.

It has spilled into our country and possibly into the UK as well (though I'm not super-informed on that).

You should see the person running for the Conservative Party leadership right now in Canada; physically, he looks nothing like Trump, but EVERYTHING else, he is just a mini-Trump. And even if this guy DOES have a background in Politics, he's just as clueless as any non-politician has the potential to be.

Trump enabled this to the world and now it's happening outside of the US. Hell, look at the Freedom Convoy bullshit that we've had to deal with up here. Never knew that it was customary for people that were, "protesting for our freedom," to urinate and deficate on the tomb of our unknown soldier and our WWI memorial, in our nation's capital.

If you haven't figured it out already, he's joking.

I'm still not convinced he's a troll. Mods could do an IP check to see if anything matches up (of course, could be using VPN, but still).
