Try as he might to insulate himself from criticism it's going to come immediately and hard. And when he doesn't deliver on the promises he made to the hayseeds some of them are going to peel off and start attacking him too. His lovely personality will only make it worse.

It's too late to deny him the presidency but I'm hopeful they can draft something up to deny him a state funeral and other legacy type stuff.

The cynical side of me thinks because it's impacting ~real America~ (read: white people) people might start to care but as we've all seen people are perfectly content to go against their own self interests as long as they have someone they can see themselves as being superior to.
It is already impacting "Real America". It's probably worse there because they don't want to loving pay for any social programs that might alleviate the problem. They're just content to blame black people. Kids from what could be considered "good" families have been doing heroin for years now.

Edit: I'd say this probably goes back to doctors throwing around narcotics like they're trail mix, while simultaneously being too stupid too recognize drug seeking behavior. Then there's parents who left the stuff laying around where their bored disaffected kids could get to it, and then suddenly can't understand why Billy is sticking a needle in his arm.

I know the whole needle exchange thing pisses some people off, and yes it does seem counterproductive at face values, but the spread of HIV and other STIs are a greater problem in the long run.

I give it like a month until Senate Democrats are able to convince McCain, Graham, and Rubio to open a select committee and begin subpoenaing him and his staff.
I sure hope so.

My wishlist:
Embarrassing poo poo hayseeds actually care about comes out.
Said hayseeds start to notice he didn't come through on any of his promises.
Melania cheats on him in a public fashion making him President Cuck.
Criminal charges cause him to resign.
He has a stroke and watches all his businesses collapse.
His state funeral and library rights get taken away.
He dies of some fat person's disease within the next 5 year.
The GOP brand destroys itself and they start Stalinesque purges of each other.

I wish he'd come out against him hard during the election, at least after he smeared the Khans. He probably would have retained his seat too. It's unfortunate that McCain's bipartisan efforts seem to mostly be driven by spite.

Donnie lies constantly about things he's said. So printing off his favorite form of communication large is probably the only way to hold his feet to the fire. It's probably not effective because he doesn't live in reality but I don't fault Sanders for trying.

Gitmo isn't entirely on Obama. The level of opposition didn't really make that possible. What Donnie is doing is backing out of all the stuff he promised before even being sworn in.

Watching the opening statements on the intelligence review.

John McCain just started pounding war drums. Not even fuckin around. Straight up said we need to create a policy of responding with force. Also mentioned they did it because we didn't gently caress them up for invading Ukraine.


Second guy up, Reed, is saying the same thing.

Open loving war against Russia.


:stonk:


Edit: midnight suntans for everyone.
Well at least someone isn't going to look the other way on Donnie's friends. Ukraine was a tough call since they're not in NATO so starting a shooting war with them wasn't going to happen. Perhaps more sanctions than they got would have helped, maybe not.

Pence is a worthless piece of poo poo but if Donnie gets tossed out fast along with a bunch of his people I'll sleep easier.
