AT LEAST 208.
Could be far less.
Person 1: You thinking what I'm thinking?
both look at each other and nod and speak at the same time
Person 1: large scale general strikes and protests! Person 2: Nuclear holocaust!

It will be many more.
Trump likely will die within the next few years, he is a fat Cheeto turd with a heart that pumps more McDonald's grease than blood.
What do you think will happen? It will be a complete shit show with people jumping into the power vacuum, I'm seriously assuming a lot of em will have, shall we say, accidents, or suïcide themselves with three gun shots to the back of their heads.
Either way, whoever is left will take over and I guarantee you, he will not organize elections.
MAGA likely has a contingency plan.
President Trump ordered EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin to decide by next week whether the agency could abandon its authority to regulate climate pollution under the Clean Air Act
"No." That doesn't take a week.
Trump put him in charge of the EPA. You really think he's going to say no?
Somebody please make it stop
That's on us. Nobody else is coming to do it.
You legit need to topple your "government" to make them stop plundering the country. Not advocating for violence, just stating the reality of the situation.
I mean when do we start advocating for violence though?
There will be a lot of pearl clutching. Some people will literally walk themselves into the gas chamber while saying "we have to be tolerant" and "well they won the election"
But also organizing is hard.
