      And then what? I’ve been asking since I started hearing about the epstein files, what is the goddamn plan after they’re released? You know he isn’t going to lose any support, right? You know he isn’t going to be prosecuted, right? I feel like people are expecting the legal fairy to come and enforce the law

        Maybe as he loses support, Vance will resign ‘in disgust’ and the congress will finally impeach him. American Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, becomes President Johnson for 15 minutes. The Republicans try to ride the wave of righteous anger to get the ‘moral’ Americans to support a return to ‘wholesome values,’ saying Trump ‘swindled the Republican party just like he did America.’ Trump dies awaiting a court date. He’s old, so no one calls foul play. Vance riles up the same anti-whatever-you-think-is-bad sentiment, but not as well, and is supported by AI billionaires who use their GPUs, left idle because they only have three customers willing to pay what it costs to run them, to pump out pro-Vance and ‘anti-woke’ propaganda. He tries to become President Vance. He hopes for two terms because he resigned before he could be succeeded into the presidency. The democratic party rolls out Joe Biden in an iron lung to run again. America looks at the options and organises the biggest mass shooting in history, in the form of an enormous mass suicide. The survivors blame the dead and vote for Biden ‘to teach the Republican Party a lesson.’ Nothing changes.

        Vote for the next president who has a platform to undo everything and to spend 4 years rounding up everyone doing heinous shit now. That’s the best you’re going to get.

    every single one of his supporters, his donors, and his voters, are complicit in every one of the crimes committed against the people of the u.s. world by this fucking shitstain on humanity and his cohorts.

    They have less self-awareness than chickens, so that’s unsurprising.

    But yeah, I wouldn’t piss in their faces if their teeth were on fire.

    I think many of them either don’t care or don’t know how much economic damage Trump will end up doing not just to the US but also to the world. And that’s on top of all of his pedophilia.

    Actually I think they know and revel in it. It proves their loyalty to the dear leader. Even as they choke as they sit on their toilets after eating lettuce from Taylors Farms. Their suffering is like the self flagellation some catholics practice to prove their loyalty to the cause.

    It’s more than just his supporters that made this happen. In fact, even those people seem like supporters to me because they let this happen. Because they don’t pay attention. Because they don’t care. Look at those people, too.

      Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing.

    And yet they will continue to support the party and politicians that enabled Trump. They will continue watching and listening to the same media that served as Trump’s cheerleaders. They will continue to believe that anybody who isn’t a staunch conservative is an enemy.

    No lessons have been learned.
