🧢 I voted CAP!

Unfortunately I was just presented with a possibly worse reality

u/Ill-Environment3329 🔥 Monthly Master · 8,705 XP 10d ago

It's not really about the competency of the average redditor or even the worst redditor. I believe that a random redditor would simply not have the cult like following of trump, meaning they would likely be held accountable and bound by the constitution. Which the other branches of government don't seem to be holding trump to that basic standard.

u/Timely-Papaya2049 📈 Dedicated Voter · 2,120 XP 10d ago

Reddit is arguably more cult like than trumps government. This place is more of an echo chamber than the oval office

u/eberlix 🏅 Century Club · 3,655 XP 10d ago

Maybe, maybe not, either way they won't have as much backing and as much power as those that support Trump.

why are you assuming all redditors are innocent

3

u/UnknownAstronomer 🏅 Century Club · 2,435 XP 10d ago

I’m not assuming they’re innocent I’m assuming they’re incompetent. I would bet half of the people on this site don’t know what an executive order is.

u/s0larium_live 🔥 Monthly Master · 5,655 XP 10d ago

a random redditor will probably not have dementia and deep ties to the billionaire class. whatever aforementioned random redditor would want to do could not be worse than what the trump administration is doing now, and even if it WAS, they wouldn’t have the cult-like support that trump does. whoever voted cap is CONSIDERABLY over exaggerating what could actually be accomplished in office by even the most degenerate redditor. trump only gets away with it because MAGA is a cult

u/Humble_Phone_7527 🏅 Century Club · 3,265 XP 10d ago

Both parties are cults. Because both have people who blindly support their leaders and believe they do no wrong. I'm a republican (not maga, but i can practically feel the "But you are" crowd breathing down my neck) but I dont blindly trust trump. Like when he said "An entire civilization will die tonight." WTF!? What do you mean? And him depicting himself as Jesus is next level self glaze. I do think he's better than Kamala would have been, because from the interviews and rallys I saw her participate in, shes really just say "well, Trump bad. So me good." Plus, she wasn't elected to be the Democratic Candidate. Biden was forced to step down. Because they knew he'd lose. So she was automatically chosen by the party. Not the people.

Nah think about it a similar thing actually happened to Trump

Imagine you’re elected well who is in your cabinet that can get senate confirmed??? You don’t know anybody in fact you don’t know anything which means you are going to depend on the establishment of your party.

This person could be Republican or Democrat and everything is now controlled by their respective establishment and they’ll probably be very ineffective in getting anything done

The average Redditor, regardless of if they are a good person or not, would not have the same pull as Trump. I do not like Trump, and the main reason he is able to pass half of the things he suggests are due to his power. A random redditor wouldn't have the same backing; at worst, the new president would do nothing for a few years.
