    Americans have been told there is a crisis every fucking presidency for decades. Every election is the most important. Everything is a cultural fight. The president declares some form of emergency every fucking year to disallow certain laws to trigger since the early 90s. And we’ve seen how the electoral college steals elections.

    Fuck the whole system.

      Seriously, Trump is not the only cause. He is a symptom of a broken system and is making it worse rapidly. He is like the metastasis of a cancer, but removing the metastasis alone won’t cure the cancer. It will just form new metastasis. You have to remove the entire cancer.

      If it wasn’t for Trump to make the primaries, the alternatives on the Republican side were people like Ron DeSantis, Mike Pence, Ted Cruz… And even Nikki Haley as the supposed “opposition” to Trump only differed on not handing Ukraine to Putin. Otherwise she is the full spectrum of racial and sexual discrimination, destroying the environment, pardoning Trump for his crimes…

        Look at the options on the other side though:

        • Biden - dropped out because he’s ancient
        • Harris - didn’t even primary, the DNC just picked her

        So you have an awful selection on one side and “mommy knows best” on the other. Which variety of corruption do you elect?

          I consider the current DNC and Democratic party elites to be part of the problem.
