    For the sake of my mental health I’m currently trying to gaslight myself into thinking that Trump being president isn’t bad. But the truth is there is no realistic way the country is coming back from this. Not in my lifetime at least.

      The only hope is that he’s so far gone mentally already that he ends up mostly doddering around the oval office. The problem is he’s already surrounded himself with the most vile people who will have no problem doing terrible things in his name.

      Maybe he’ll die and JD Vance will magically regain a conscience.

        God the only hope is that JD doesn’t become president, in name or practice.

        That’s a feature for these people not a bug, he’ll be a hollow shell for his cabinet to pass what they want to pass
