Baffling. We already rejected this guy once when he had less baggage. His first term was objectively terrible.
So, I guess America has kings now, because Trump will never see another day in court for his crimes, and he's not going to prison.
I just don't have the strength anymore. I'm teetering on the brink of agreeing with the accelerationists and just letting it happen. The faster Trump ruins the country, the sooner we can rebuild it while we still have time to enjoy it.
Only that rarely what happens. Things just stay broken and don't magically reassemble better.
Best mantra is "evolution not revolution".
That may be the better mantra, but sometimes, you just gotta.... Viva la revolution! ...to get anything fucking fixed.
Most of human history is not rule of law democracy. It is rare and precious. Smash it up at your peril.
