Welp. It was a good run, America.
Almost three hundreds years of progress undone by a man that cosplays a billionaire Cheeto.
Truly remarkable.
Longest lasting representative democracy in history, ended by a felon rapist, while a solid chunk of the country cheered.
Truly a weak, pathetic, stupid, shameful country.
Representative for who? Natives, black people, queers, anyone remotely to the left wouldn't say the US has been exactly democratic during it's time. Trump and the GOP are just the current incarnation of the settlers that massacred the indigenous people and the racists who enforced slavery and later Jim Crow and segregation. They have been a part of America since it's founding.
I think if more Americans were honest about how shitty their country has always been, maybe they could understand how Trump is merely a symptom of a deeper rot.
Oh, no, we aren't even close to finished. By the time we are done, whatever is left of the Republican party will be very sorry they started all this nonsense.
Wish I shared your enthusiasm, but Americans have sleepwalked through everything so far. I don't see that changing before it's much too late. Only thing that saved Europe was the good guys swooping in. That ain't happening in this scenario. We have to save ourselves and I don't see it happening.
A rogue president ordering the military to invade a friendly allied neighbor has never happened. Its safe to say that would be the end of trying to recover our nation through legal Constitutional methods (which is the stage we are in right now). It would instantly cause a Civil War, and would vastly reduce the military forces, as MANY military members would refuse to comply. We have many very experienced high level military leaders who would be of great use to the Canadian army, and many of our trained soldiers will support them.
The MAGA military leaders are loyalists first, and competency comes far down the list. It is likely that HitlerPig will be calling the shots, just the way Hitler did in WWII, and that was a major reason for the German's downfall. HitlerPig is even stupider than Hitler was.
