President Donald Trump went off the rails when asked about California wildfires during his first full day in office. He claims city officials are diverting "limitless" water to the ocean through a "massive valve."
If it’s of any comfort I’m predicting he’ll die within the next 4 years. But I’m also predicting it’ll only get worse with his death so maybe there’s not much comfort to be had.
If he died of old age tomorrow, his followers would probably think it was a deep state assassination. There would be no convincing these nutjobs that an old, unhealthy person like Trump could die.
i dont disagree. we need to keep enduring, speaking out for, and fighting for those who will be negatively impacted by all that is to come. we cannot give up. im tired too…but we can do this
Look mate, I don’t even live in the States and I need to keep my sanity. I did what I could when I felt like I could do it and Americans picked Trump, so I’m doing what I gotta do to survive. Is it selfish? Yeah, it is a little bit, but that’s the truth.
Unfortunately, I don’t have the right answer. I can still recognize the wrong one though.
That feeling of powerlessness over everything is what they want. It eventually leads to something called learned helplessness, where we no longer even try to change things.
I don’t know if I can handle 4 more years of this.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure Vance will be even worse for the country.
Has Vance shown any dictatorial tendencies?
Yes. His podcasts appearances are probably the best source. The Behind the Bastards episodes about Curtis Yarvin do a pretty good job of covering it.

Thanks. Vance sounds like he is easily led. Scary.
We will all endure.
Most but definitely not all.
No. Many people are going to die. I will not have that be erased.
It sucks but sometimes it’s a pleasant change of circumstances to see the USA fucking itself, first. We’ve been dying for decades.
I know three people leaving the country.

Block social media that centers on him or politics. Find like minded people. Do things you love.
Burying your head in the sand while the country burns is not the answer.

As an American, I’m sorry.
And what should we do instead that you’re doing right now? I personally feel powerless in all of this.

But killing yourself slowly with the ratcheting insanity helps how…?
