Trump falls ill and simultaneously 8 senior figures in his administration have a General Hague "I am in control" moment.

Remember that people have the short term retention of memory such that you'll be able to honestly state that Trump personally founded ISIS in 2020.

Wraith of J.O.I. posted:My anger is veering more toward despair and depression. I don't see how we make it through a Trump presidency without huge catastrophes. The question is not "How do we save the world?" The question is "How did you spend your time in the final days?" You're a part of history now. Decide what role you want to play.

Pollyanna posted:Is there any outrage over this at all? Are people angry, or is it just me? Is the populace just as pissed off about this, or are they ignorant? Are we truly alone in this? Over President of the United States, Donald Trump? Of course, but he's not going away. The pissed off, angry repudiation of Trump needed to happen at the polls but it didn't. Everything that that makes him what he is, what we've all witnessed, has to an extent already become normalized in our society, and it will more so as time goes on. That fight is already lost. The focus has to shift to basically using the exact same tactics the Republicans used forcefully after 2008: Gridlock as much as possible and focus on making Trump a 1 term president.

Donald Trump spends his presidency on the golf course, leaving the important duties of running the country to his top three advisors. All three hate each other and will begin the backstabbing almost immediately.

Guy disparages the entire military as one block. I respond saying that's hosed up. Different guy (your damsel in distress) chimes in arguing a completely different point, says he's muslim and that his friends from the military say racist poo poo and therefore [stupid generalizations]. A fourth guy points out the use of a commonly disparaged tactic of saying "My [category] friends..." and claiming a false expertise. And then you chime in to post that? What the hell?

Well, we have to end apartheid for one. And slow down the nuclear arms race, stop terrorism and world hunger. We have to provide food and shelter for the homeless, and oppose racial discrimination and promote civil rights, while also promoting equal rights for women. We have to encourage a return to traditional moral values. Most importantly, we have to promote general social concern and less materialism in young people.
