Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

It really is some bleak shit. It just seems like this whole administration is frozen because every instinct they have is wrong and they can't go back on any of it without proving how bankrupt their policies are. Not worth the bytes it takes to post their dumb tweets. And how are you going to face one crisis (Afghanistan) without addressing the border? Or inflation? They're strategy is just "dog fire is fine." If they try to address any problem seriously, it will unleash a lot more questions that they can't answer.

They can't handle any real problems. The only problems they can solve are the ones they create themselves, although with the way inflation (created in large part by the lockdowns they support) is looking they can't even solve those. If it can't be dealt with after a meeting with some glowies or fellow Uniparty politicians, it can't be dealt with at all. When a genuine enemy comes along like the Taliban, they can do fuck all as the Taliban calls their bluff and helps themselves to free US equipment.

To piggy back on @soy_king , politics in every country runs on a thin and fine layer of corruption. You wash my back, I wash yours, we both get happy. This is nominally kept in check by requiring it to be done quietly, and the corruption remaining less costly than the benefit to the voter. This is the reality of the system, and functions quite well normally.

But the core rule of all this is that it must remain under the table, the system must be -perceived- as clean. Just ignoring court orders is too dirty.

Do you think the perception of corruption in/between MSM, BigTech, Corporate and The Administration is at a all time high among
Americans?

Every thing I listed was illegal. It doesn't somehow become legal just because it isn't shocking.

Oh no! The religious right wants me to raise my family in a moral and gospel centered way.


This is exactly the same as leftoids trying to corrupt and destroy your child, family, and country as soon as possible with the full weight of the government, media, and globohomo.

I'd rather live in a country without sanctimonious, proselytizing authoritarian assholes thanks.

Yes, and its whats driving a total breakdown of the traditional pillars.

Obama raised eyebrows, but IMO the totality of it started breaking down once TDS took hold among those four pillars and millennials started truly rising into power.

To recap the result from 2016-onwards, a constant and total barrage of MSM whining, big lie after big lie, narrative attack streams that constantly switched direction and contradicted themselves week to week, undermining by entrenched bureaucracy, and overreach by woke big tech and corporations- all set amongst the great awokening/anti-American movement in culture and academia.

All of this finally cumulated in the 2020 Election 'Fortification' that finally damaged this trust for many Americans who had some awareness of this. As Gehenna said, this was probably the first time in a long time when the perceived corruption broke through the surface and made things seem 'unclean'.

I personally think that the vaccine hesitancy is one of the first butterflies as a result, and more disengagement and personal/local resistances to the federal will likely emerge in the coming years.

You can always find a country where the government itself is so ineffectual that its authoritarianism doesn't particularly reach you.

Trust in Media, Trust in Law Enforcement, and Acceptance of Government Rule. These are the pillars on which a country rests its power without the use of force. The corruption is so clear, so evident, it erodes these pillars away and renders the populace ungovernable and the government ineffectual. This is especially bad in a federalized system, where each state is a country in its own right.

The first two have been eroded down to nubs, and the third will probably disappear like someone hit it with semtex if Biden actually goes through with the interstate jab-pass bullshit that his administration just publicly mused about.

Its why they keep delaying it, and despite Posobiec saying about now is when the lockdowns should be getting started and the early moves to do so a couple weeks ago it has just -stopped-. I'm somewhat ashamed to admit, I don't know why on this. But the polling for it fell through the -floor-. It was like a fucking atom bomb. It went from "Sorta, almost, kinda okay" to "Radioactive, sewage waste, infested with Demon Sharks" over a single week span.

I thought of this back in the 9/11 days. It wasn't just the oil we wanted out of Afghanistan. It was the poppy fields. The Taliban decreased poppy production to the tune of like 90 percent or more.

en.wikipedia.org

Opium production in Afghanistan - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org

And then boom: Whitey gets caught up in the opioid crisis. Another plandemic. Destroy nigs with crack, destroy whites with dope.

Leave it. Leave them all alone and let them do their own tribal thing. We could, if we retained our energy independence Trump championed. Maybe Taliban rule is what they need. Sandniggers only know one thing: absolute force. There is no diplomacy.

My guess is that the population has no appetite for another lock down or federal vaxx mandates- but that instead they're going to be pushing for the mass vaxx Plan B via corporate and academic mandates, and then mop up after that.

It's slowly spreading, and I think this is the issue that no individual really can put up a unified front against it, barring individual corporations going against it.
