The bad shit hasn't even started yet.
I genuinely believe that the best case scenario for America is that it all goes to shit SO FAST that even his most ardent supporters have to say "No, this is fucked. He needs to go."
At least 30% of the population has drunk the Kool-Aid and is so deep in, nothing, not anything, will turn them from their God King.
Only because they believe they will be unaffected or benefit. If they are negatively impacted, they will flip so fast
Republican propaganda outlets will tell them that there is no problem and they'll believe it. If not that, they'll tell them the problem is a fault of the "others", and they'll get even more on board the maga hate train. They're a lost cause.
30% of voters
Don't forget there's a whole separate worse category of people: those who refuse to vote or learn about "politics"
Nah, I can understand apathy way more than I can the racism and hatred of the fascist Republican voters.
I heard that Vance is twice as bad.
Vance doesnt have the cult of personality behind him.
He doesn't need them. He's already VP.
Yeah but in 4 years unless Trump tries to go full Putin thats going to matter.
