How is it that Trump is able to so easily dance circles around lawyers and politicians and move around the law without actually breaking it? How are career politicians outmaneuvered by this guy? What the fuck are you guys paying them for? I feel like people who’s whole career has been politics or law should know how to beat this guy. Or at least been able to stop him somehow at some point along the way. It’s almost as if they let him become president because even the people who are supposed to be opposed to him benefit from him in some way or their benefactors do.

That’s the funny part, he DOES break the law. Constantly. But the courts are stacked in his favor so they don’t give a shit. You can’t use the law to stop someone who is above the law
It also doesn’t help that the Democratic party only pays lip service to any kind of resistance
Most Americans are starting to learn for the very first time how grossly undemocratic the U.S. government actually is. People have had absolute faith in an institution that was held together by bubblegum and hope. Hell, most of what he’s doing isn’t even illegal. We just hoped that presidents would have enough tact not to abuse their privilege, and never imagined our courts could be captured as well.
Well, fuck your politicians for being useless cunts. They should have seen this coming. We all did. We knew he was gonna win and to think he of all people would respect the position he is in is ludicrous. Now I’m gonna get invaded or have my economy crashed at best.
Of course they saw this coming, and genuinely fuck the Democratic Party for being controlled opposition, but a pretty large chunk of the blame falls on the United States public who just watched as civics education in this country collapsed. An unqualified electorate electing unqualified leaders isn’t a surprise, and we spent most of the last 50 years trying to make sure the average American was as dumb and misinformed as possible. Hell, maybe if Americans were actually taught how fragile the U.S. system of government is, we’d have made serious reforms of it before now.
So how likely do you think it is the US comes back from this? Like it honestly does look like the collapse of western civilization is happening right now. Europe is almost in all out war with Russia and even if that doesn’t happen, more and more countries over there are electing the far right. America is about to invade all of its allies and even if they don’t do it, their diplomatic reputation has been completely shattered. No matter what way you look at it, this does seem like the end of western civilization. What comes after I think is already known. It will be the silicon valley take over plus whatever project 2025 is.
Oh like 0%, IMO a civil war and the collapse of the United States is the best case scenario. A third of Americans are blackshirts, a third have been yelling about the blackshirts for decades, and the other third are asking people to keep their voices down. That just isn’t a recipe for a legal reversal of what’s happening. Either a civil war happens and the fascists lose, or we’ll become like Russia without any serious opposition.
Look up curtis yarvin, Peter thiel, Marc andreeson. They along with jd Vance and elo musk all subscribe to a similar ideology which I think is what is in store for you guys. I’m hoping it doesn’t reach us here, but I’m pretty sure it will since it’s almost a guarantee that we will be annexed. Looking at moving to another continent but I don’t know which one is actually safe anymore. Maybe Australia?
