    Probably true. It is Trump backing the US into a corner. No other country in backing them there. Americans need to decide, do they get rid of him, or are they willingly sacrificing their family members so he can increase his net wealth (and that of his kids) at average Americans’ expense? Unfortunately I expect Americans will be “patriotic” and die to give Trump not only all their money but also their health and lives.

      We can’t get rid of him even if we want to.

      He controls every branch of government. The only way to get rid of him right now is through violence. At a time when he is ignoring court orders and deporting people illegally to one of the world’s worst prisons. And setting up Guantanamo Bay to house tens of thousands of detainees.

      We’ll see what happens.

        “Hmmm things seem to be worse since Trump was elected. Maybe if we go even more right wing, they’ll get better?”

        MAGA crowds, probably

          Well, I guess the problem is that people believe what he says. He will blame Canada and greenland and Europe. It’s nuts but thats where we are.
