but that's what I'm saying. it's not functioning right now, donny is losing his poo poo regularly on twitter, and something like 3/4s of the executive is MIA. something's got to give here, something's going to break bigly in a way hard to imagine right now.

we'll just have a big terrorist attack, after which the government can move decisively into patriotic / war / security state mode and can accommodate the kind of reductive and bianary approach for which trump is so well suited.

after that things will be very efficient and i look forward to seeing you all in the "internment" camps

Yeah, it's hard to say but I suspect it'll lean towards "catastrophic". What's kind of telling is Donny (as far as I know) has yet to say anything about the destroyer or even the London tower fire. Both of which merited a statement by a POTUS in my opinion, despite neither being strictly domestic.

iirc trump tweeted about the destroyer thanking the japanese government for their support

i think an aide did it

Also all of the infighting in the world doesn't matter if the dems refuse to offer any sort of alternative to the republicans

There's a really big chance that liberals are going to point to Ossoff winning as a reason why everything is fine and they need to stay the course of bipartisanship and corporate lackeys, which will absolutely get them killed in 2018

i'm not so sure. so long as trump isn't impeached and inevitably fucks up the next big hurricane, flood, and forest fire i think establishment dems will get their feet held to the fire because the motivation to do so is extremely real.

Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current President of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality.

like gobias said, they'll end up blaming Obama for any event like that
They'll blame Obama/dems/etc for everything, but sooner or later they'll catch a buck they simply cannot pass no matter how hard their media cronies spin it.

Agronox posted:

i'm not talking about the politics, really--i'm more concerned with the actual on-the-ground facts as to what happens. can something like FEMA or State actually function in a crisis right now? how effectively? my guess would be "not very well" but it could range anywhere from "fine" to "catastrophic."
That's the thing... they'll still say it's someone else's fault that they failed to respond until it's way too late and completely gently caress everything up when they finally get around to overreacting. Then they'll say "libs mad, therefore everything is great" and the dumbs will buy it.

Think past 2018/2020... if something doesn't massively change, someone (plural) is going to start systematically purging and not stop until they run out of R's.

I don't have a lot of faith in some natural disaster being the pivotal moment considering there's been a natural disaster in the white house for 5 months now and they still want to cut deals and protect the ~discourse~

oh no, i don't mean that, like, feinstein will get mean, i mean that her constituents will get mean and so force her to take harder stances. california has a shitload to lose from a weak EPA and FEMA, as do the rest of the states, and nothing reminds people of that like Hurricane Katrina's.

but i, my friend, will get a sizeable tax cut; and the function of government is, in essence, to act as my constabulary, ensuring that the unworthies can't get their unclean hands on my stash and don't get quaint notions such as "redistribution" etc.

The purpose of the dems in their current state is to fight against their base as opposed to the republicans. They know where their paychecks come from

Republicans are having their town halls devolve into riots, so they decided to stop going. Id love to be surprised by the Dems, but no amount of "Dornal Trimpm Bad" is gonna do anything if they're only offering to poor people is that they're gonna use lube
