For Trump? A total degradation of all US institutions and the republic itself, which is now being replaced with an oligarchy and de facto defunct. If you are referring to the "assassination attempt" on Trump that was very obviously staged for propaganda purposes.
It's really interesting to see a fed inside a gerbil instead of a gerbil inside a fed for once, not gonna lie.
 
Since were huffing copium, I'm going to cross my fingers and hope Trump allows manufactuers to make simpler cars that dont need tons of electronics. I want a simple little truck with no bells or whistles.
In the meantime, the 25 year vehicle import rule needs to be abolished, all it's there for is protecting domestic vehicle manufacturing, and a lot of that's been exported and will take a while to get back, and car dealers. Fuck car dealers. Let me drive a mini truck from Japan that doesn't have 100k on the odometer.
 
The general populous does not want another rise of the Deep State. The methods they use are slowly being exposed and rooted out. The question is where we go from here, but for the first time in awhile, the sun shines on America. For all intents and purposes, the divide amongst Americans is slowly being healed and the crazies are being pushed back to the fringes of society.
What happened is the Democrats created an entire gentry class through federal agencies. This gentry class is angry that they aren't getting their special privileges anymore, but they should be glad that all they have to do now is get a fucking job, rather than how gentry were dealt with in previous historical moments.

This is what “learn to code” meant. It meant “we got ours, so suffer or something”
 
1. Populism is fake and gay. Without elite leadership of the right kind, a mob is just a mob or, worse, astroturfed containment ala the Tea Party. OWS was never going to go anywhere for that reason.
It's fake and gay until someone takes control, which is a risk you always have. Bernie rode a populism wave high enough to freak the hell out of Hillary and the Dems (especially because Obummer had done something similar 8 years before; people forget how much of a populist he was). Trump rode one successfully.

If you allow a mob to coalesce and form long enough, eventually there will be the mob and the popular leader at the same time, and they won't be controllable.
 
As of today, their best bet is a Fetterman Gambit. I'm titling it this now because I believe this is what he's doing. Find a guy who will work with the Republicans and Trump administration to be a snake in the grass. Let him talk up the popular candidates and seem like he's an actual intelligent politician who will reform the other side. Tard wrangle everyone else to STFU and keep quiet. Then when the day comes when people are tired of MAGA, we can pull the wool over people's heads. I think this is their most likely play. Keep an eye on Fetterman.
No, that'd be too logical of a solution for the Democrats to claw their way into power.

Expect the Dems to go full libtard AOC, than lose whatever political capital they have left (no pun intended), & eventually get supplanted by Corporatist Neo-Cons with 90's Koch Brothers style rhetoric (which has been increasingly abandoned by the current GOP) that promises every 18 year old American a job in the military (regardless of their fitness) & try to paint vastly expanding the military-industrial complex as a universal health/jobs program. I'm psychic, this is what I feel might happen.

Popular outrage, justified or not, is nothing but angry meandering unless someone can direct it to some end.
 
r/Atheism is funny because they are now outraged that Trump is ending sanctuary protection on ICE enforcement against religious sites.

But in any other case, they would object religious sites being treated with deference by the government.
The sheer amount of them begging for church taxation is amazing. What is it with Atheists deep throating the IRS?
 
I'm a man. I'm just not retarded and don't hate women since i recognize them for the flawed humans that they are. The christcuck and/or trad notion of a woman is either total hatred of her, seeing her as a birthbot or a far too idealized female. In the last case deviation from the "norm" causes violent reactions.
I wasn't going to respond to your foolishness, it's simple minded retardation. This is just more proof of it; Christians love women, we cherish women, and we do our best to protect them. The modern woman is pretty far from what they were before godless faggots like you started to push them into this retarded society. Was a slippery slope of independence to what we have now, pushing empowerment by showing their assholes on the internet for loose change. You demonic fucks would do well to keep your mouth shut about women being flawed. Nothing is more important than being a mother, nothing matters more, the men need to be around to protect them and provide for them. It's a symbiotic relationship, men are fucked up too, they have been failed as well. We all too often get told women are evil, and deserve what they get.

It's not an easy thing to fix, but this is one thing I really do think we need to work on, we need to get back to that, not sure if we can though.
 
The ruling came hours before the midnight deadline for workers to apply for the deferred resignation program.
U.S. District Judge George O’Toole Jr. in Boston did not express an opinion on the legality of the program. He scheduled a hearing for Monday at 2 p.m. EST and told the administration to extend the application deadline until after that.

They couldn't even give a reason. Just "No, wait, stop."
