    oh yea, it’ll be all “we need to come together” and “we’re going to help everybody” for the next 2 months

    then, the instant he steps into office, freedom of speech: gone. freedom of the press: gone. EPA: gone. dept. of education: gone. SEC: gone. consumer protections, civil rights, equality, accountability, justice-- all. fucking. gone.

    expect mass imprisonments, assassinations, and other removals

    “that can’t happen in this country!!” you might be saying. why not? because of “checks and balances”? LOL

    you have about 2 months to prepare your asshole

      People were like ‘the president wouldn’t assassinate his own people or work with enemy foreign nations to do so!’ but then they turned a blind eye to Trump’s security ‘lapses’ and the distinctly sharp rise in the deaths of our undercover operatives around the globe.

      He will sell out America, spill its blood for his own gain, and he already has.

        and we’re leaving out implications at the local level. why would a trumper sheriff bother going after someone for murdering marginalized peoples? why would any lawyer take up any case against a trump appointed judge (spoiler alert: it’ll be all of them, soon)?

          Abbott already pardoned some shitbag for murder because he was a conservative who murdered a liberal.

        Like Biden or Kamala wouldn’t do the same with active support of genocide in Gaza.

        Red or Blue - certain things remain.

          Ooof, the both sides propaganda is wild. If you are even a voter in this election, instead of a member of an astroturfing campaign, you and the current election results really does show that we have the memory of goldfish. And that we really can’t differentiate between ‘not the best’ and ‘absolutely terrible and catastrophic for global democracy’.

          Its like that study with children or dogs, where a treat is placed on the table but then a bigger one is promised if they wait, or with dogs two different treats are put on the table but one is bigger than the other and they only get to choose one. Neither party can see or wrap their head around the difference between the two and how one reward is significantly better for them.

            Or could it be that your leadership and policies are seen as poor, uninspiring, and indistinguishable from the opposition amongst those that you refer to as “children or dogs?”

            Kamala, probably, would have been less harmful than Trump.
            But not in regard to assisting genocide of Palestinians.

          Didn’t you hear? Trump won, nobody will have to worry about a Palestinian genocide much longer.

            Oh yeah it really seems like Israel has been holding back over the last 13 months. The ethnic cleansing is about to get so much cleansinger!

      Also, remember that this follows HOT on the heels of SCOTUS saying “basically anything a President does is legal”. This theoretically means Trump and his admin could sidestep Congress entirely, on anything. Trump was already ruling by EO last term, but I suspect we haven’t seen anything yet.

        Kinda makes you wonder why Joe Biden didn’t take advantage of that at any point over the last several months when so much is at stake.

      There’s actually so much at stake that I lost track of it all. Absolutely mind blowing that a single American could vote for him let alone the majority. I do not understand why Americans hate America.
