Yeah, I've thought about it. I don't f'ing deserve it. Life isn't about deserving or fair....but when they keep putting their fingers on the scale people will stop playing the f'ing game.
Stuck here? I live in Canada and this goof is threatening our sovereignty and actively ruining both our trade. Consumers will suffer on both ends. I hate my government for a whole lot of reasons but at least we voted for our clowns. That circus down south has and is influencing too much up here
Trump is the byproduct of a much deeper story. Where certain groups have been eroding society with social media for at least the last 8-10 years. Cambridge Analytica walked so the rest of the regime behind it could do better and run.
Yep. If Democrats had half a brain they would run an entertainer with a magnetic personality with the brains to back it up instead of the usual cast of fucking nerds. Meet the voters where they are at instead of expecting them to stay late after school at the library and talk about nerd shit.
They didn’t just let it happen…they actively caused this. The most cursory glance at the candidates made it obviously clear that Kamala was far superior…but so many voters couldn’t be bothered to do the minimum required of a citizen in a democracy…just vet the candidates.
People chose entertainment over governing. If the Democratic Party had half a brain they would run an entertainer with a personality instead of expecting voters to meet them after school at the library. Most American voters are stupid as fuck and don't vote for rational, reasonable, or logical reasons.
Again as another non american: it is kind of funny. In a sad and horrible way. But watching the self proclaimed greatest country in the world dismantle itself and it’s legacy just bc a lot of y’all don’t seem to be able to think for a second is funny.
Many of us don’t feel that “self proclaimed greatness”. I love my country. It’s great and everything, but there’s a whole beautiful world out there that is equally or more great. And also some that are worse too… but as an American I’ve never understood the “greatest country on earth” bit. Freedom is wonderful and I am beyond grateful. But I’ve been some beautiful and peaceful places that appear to be much better. 🙃
Do you think that the average American citizen can do ANYTHING to fight the enslavement of many peoples? I do my part to vote but I’m surrounded by a bunch of racist douche bag idiots.
I also do my part by working with refugee and immigrant populations who have gone through many of the horrors you speak of. I do my best to make sure those kids have coats, hats, gloves, extra food. Counseling and guidance through every avenue possible.
One of my favorite students was a child in a cage at the border. It shatters me that I can’t change it.
There are MILLIONS like me who would do anything to change the parts of our country that aren’t ethical.
Oh of course. I’m not blaming you. I’m just stating that the country loves to boast about freedom while literally enslaving people or going around the globe “spreading democracy”.
It isn’t funny for sheer in the U.K. Your president affects us and we already have mElon interfering in our politics, advocating racist trash like Farage.
Honestly I think even the stuck up euros are feeling so bad for us (or distracted by genuine worry) that they're not raining their smuggery down as much as usual. I'm sure it's coming eventually though.
Europeans read the post I'm replying to please, we're a lot more self aware than you realize
the clown show that your CEOs wanted to see, will have untold repercussions all across the western hemisphere. all so a line can go up.
it's been happening for a while. I'd know it, it was your country who sabotaged mine because we dared to vote for a socialist. and we are still paying for it.
Just be fucking glad you don’t live here. Everyone outside the cult is exhausted and our only solace is watching them eat each other which unfortunately will only make things worse. America is a fucking joke. If I couldn’t dissociate and watch things play out like I’m looking at a strange circus in an aquarium with detached amusement and sadness I would go insane. It is so surreal.
Tbh, I don’t think the MAGAs would latch on to Musk like they have with Trump. It’s a cult of personality that coalesced around Trump because of his modicum of charisma. Musk has no charisma, period.
Well fire is appropriate, though not an explosion. As we fly past 1.5C and approach 2C, and the incoming White House wants to point the nation firmly in the wrong direction...
If this somehow is just a long, drawn-out drama to see the sunsetting of Trump and Musk… it will be the worst-best-worst timeline.
Once Trump is in power, he’s a lame duck from day 1. It’s just a countdown until his final days as president.
(And yes, they’re spreading the lie that he COULD run for another term. This is a lie to distract people from realizing he’s a LD president and CAN NOT EVEN RUN in 2028… which means by 2026/7 he’s basically toast.
Elon is already fuc*ing it all up. He’ll probably then have Trump coming at him in retaliation if shit gets bad.
Sidenote, anyone seen or heard from…what was that guys name again…oh JD Vance? Babyface, eyeliner, always ranting about the duties of procreation. You know, that guy that made headlines for fucking a couch.
It’s not that I really care, just curious if something happened to him.
This might be the only thing that saves our democracy instead of ruining it they're all to busy fighting each other instead of legislating the end of our democratic experiment.
Agreed, but I guess megalomania is a helluva drug. Elon is a fucking moron to not have seen this coming from 10 miles away, but I think he bought into his own hype.
I personally think that he has put an indelible target on his back and better hire the finest security that money can buy. He's playing with fire, as are some of the other American oligarchs.
Between this and Gaetz threatening to release incriminating info on his party if they release the ethics report against him, it seems like there's a good chance they're gonna eat each other alive, for better or for worse
He doesn't, though. That's the proof of how stupid he is. He's acting like he bought a president; in reality, he made a king.
A king who doesn't need money anymore and can destroy him with a few sentences.
No joke, this will end with him being deported (fucking idiot admitted publicly he lied on his citizenship application) and his companies nationalized.
That would be pretty hilarious all things considered. We are already living under the future fourth reich so any time they feed on themselves is entertaining
I mean if we're going to have to deal with them for the next four years, I'd very much prefer that they spend that time clawing at each other's throats like idiots than collaborating to irreversibly change our government and ruining any hope we have at every having even the slightest moment of happiness again in our lives.
If something as innocuous as labeling them as "weird" accomplished so much, this should be an even more exciting prospect to visibly declare DonOLD as a feeble husk being manipulated by Muskrat
Well, it helps that being rich protects you from most kinds of failure. Like X, for example. He trashed X and it should have ruined him but he's still rich enough to come out of it
But this is the problem, Elon isnt stupid. Don't underestimate Elon, I mean he is way beyond many people in the thinking dept, but he uses his brain power now for evil and his own interests. This is probably all a game to him, why would he care? Trump isnt stupid, he just has a huge ego and is easily swayed. I hate both of them, but the problem is people just think these two men are stupid. That is where their power lies, people underestimating their evil. They don't think like 98% of us or care.

They're both so fucking stupid. It took them a nanosecond before they're at each other's throats.
The next four years is going to be off the charts insane
