I was watching a video the other day of Rachel Maddow talking about how now that Trump is elected, we will never have a vote again. We will be a Russian puppet state and that all immigrants regardless of status will be deported. I was thinking that’s a possibility and a scary potential future. Then I realized the video was from 2016… and Trump went on to be so ineffective that more immigrants came in than Obama. The only lasting legacy he will have is the Supreme Court, which sucks, but he is too ineffective to do anything other than rant on truth social. He is good at saying things, not doing things.

And you think you're the only one so wise as to have noticed all that? Trump's people have been working their ass off for this day. They've seen the weaknesses in Trump and the system and they're already deploying their plans. If you think this administration will be Trump 2.0, you got another thing coming.

I imagine Germans were laughing at Hitler after the Beer Hall Putsch.

They weren’t laughing, they were naively relieved and thought they dodged a bullet and threw him in jail.

In 2028, the Democrats won't even be on the ticket, and most of America still won't vote third party.

Yep. Make no preparations for 2028. Any money you donate to campaigns is wasted money. Might as well keep it.
