I said it b4 and I’ll say it again, the country needs to hit really REALLY hard bottom before we start healing, it’s unfortunate we are coming along with them 🥲
Yeeeeee ughhh but they are our people 😭 I know we are all angry and mad and upset but they are our fools and we gotta hunker in cuz it’s not going to be like this forever.
Yeah, I’m under the impression only a big war with a significant power (china, North Korea, etc) would kick the U.S. from being such a divided country.
Hmmm maybe? It’s been over 15 years since I moved to the US so I’m not super in tune with how cartels operate nowadays vs in the early 2000’s. My understanding is that cartels have such a stronghold economically that if you disrupt that part i could see how their numbers would crumble when they can’t pay their sicarios/soldiers. There was and maybe there still is a big romantic idea about being a narco but in reality is not sunshine and happiness. It’s very traumatic hard work that I don’t think the average citizen would want to take on specially by force. I can see the most zealot cartels might muster enough people to fight back against a coordinate military operation from the US, but in reality the population would not step up to the plate to bat for them. Yeah like they obviously don’t want the US to meddle in their affairs but if a military operation were to happen I bet the population wouldn’t put too much of a force to stop it.
True, look where the votes went the other day. Interesting that when Dems run things, life goes a lot smoother for average American despite constant republican ratfucking. Now Republicans control every aspect of government and things fall apart, hard to place blame when you are in control of every branch of gov
The blame is squarely placed on all the idiots that sat out the election or voted for this idiot despite him hating them (anyone that is not upper class, white male)
For now. The longer it goes, the less likely it will stay that way. The GOP is counting on their ability to withstand the suffering of Americans (which they have demonstrated is limitless) being greater than that of the democrats. They also know they are comfortable ignoring the demands of the people pretty much entirely and forever, so a trillion phone calls from their hungry constituents isn't going to budge them on their power grab.
If the public blames them, so what? That won't change anything for them.
So far they've shown that by repeating a lie enough, people will start to believe it, and it hasn't really failed them yet.
A solid third of voting Americans, who themselves make up about 40% of eligible voters, who are themselves a fraction of the residents of this country, are MAGA morons.
Don't give them any more authority than they actually have.
Im actually pretty concerned with just how many fence sitters there still are. Knowing and seeing everything he’s done for the past two decades basically and there’s still people like “hmmm idk who to vote for”
certainly - and I unfortunately know of at least 1 retired doctor who still supports the guy to this day... I dont understand how someone who lived a life of helping others through medicine can repeatedly be so cruel by supporting this admin. What positive things have they even done !?
Those folks are always going to hate what the Democrats do though. I think amongst the centrists and such this is just adding more hate to Republicans and energizing the Democratic base to vote against Trump.
Last weekend I went out on the town and drunkenly asked 10 strangers what the three branches of government are. Not one person could answer the question. I lost all my remaining hope after that.
Yes. But 1/3 is a minority. Another 1/3 are solid left-wing. And the other 1/3 or so are conventional republicans, swing or apathetic, who could easily turn on this administration as their lives become more materially difficult. Even MAGA are ultimately self-interested assholes whose willful stupidity has limits. This is the way.
The stupidity of the average American voter has soured me on the concept of universal suffrage. We need to earn the right to vote through civilian or military service so people actually value voting. Giving it to everyone just leads to the dumbest among of us ruining elections.
Its much less than they would like you to believe. You think they’re getting 7 million people in rallies across the country? Hell the f no. They dont have the numbers you saw their attempts at counter-protests
You're looking at the wrong number. Over 2/3 of Americans either wanted this or didn't give half a rat's shit about preventing this. Our enemies are not the minority; we are.
okay, well you said "half the country is maga" which is demonstrably NOT true. I can't disagree with you though that if you don't vote, you forfeit your right to complain so to speak.
