The current Oval Office occupant will be gone at some point, and there's no one on the horizon with his charisma or influence. Two questions remain..
How much damage will be done?
What kind of consequences for his enablers?
Don't know the first answer.
Don't ever let his enablers off the hook.

I don't say this in any level of praise, but Trump IS a once-in-a-lifetime figure; one that his supporters won't be able to fully move on from after he passes or even just leaves the political spotlight. He's irreplaceable to most of them.
.
And, MUCH damage will be inflicted.
LIKE. IT.
I know, I am from #Iowa where #Project2025 started in 2020.
Only thing that in our favor is the protests are gaining momentum, and have allies in government, plus a news media that hasn't 100% capitulated.
And platforms like this.
I believe it will take the US at least a couple of generations to recover from the damage to education, science and the environment, just to name my top three picks. Many people think I am being overly optimistic ...
He will leave an indelible shit stain on earth.
EVERY Decent Person In The World Knows...
He knows that.
So he will.
After that it's pretty much martial law, or a monarchy.
Have you ever played Dungeons and Dragons?
Then he was reelected, and actually grew his support somewhat.
The world will never trust us again, for good reason. The damage is immense and long term.
At least I hope so.
The contemporary examples — Russia, Hungary — still have elections, they just don’t matter — and about 1/3 voters here already feel that way.
That won’t be clean, but I put odds of Balkanization w/i 4 yrs at worse than 50/50.
Regardless, hard days comin’.
Do you realize ALL Democratic leaders upheld the leaders who attempted the coup as fit to keep leading?
Biden could have hired an AG who believed leader treason must be prosocuted swiftly; Biden could have pressured Congress to expel the traitors.
I don’t think so.
And look much ppl cared.
And there's no going back to status quo ante.
It's a whole New Frontier.
Charisma ? Are you taking the piss !
Decimating our social infrastructures.
Violating Supreme Court orders, human rights & the
Constitution.
Alienating our allies.
#June14 EVERYONE EVERYWHERE across America must rise peacefully and lawfully, and demand an immediate end to the destruction of our country. https://mobilize.us
*something* that weirdly implants itself into the brains of millions of Americans, and parasitizes them like a zombie fungus.
Especially ones who are mostly are on your side?
Over a word?
It's hard times for a lot of us.
Much respect to you for your gracious words.
Good god if you’re gonna try and dunk on the man at least call out who you’re talking about, it’s kinda weird.
I don't do that anymore. He thrives on his name, and the level of destruction he's causing makes me not even want to say it. Just my personal choice.
Democratic leadership should know no peace. Wall Street should know no peace. Silicon Valley should know no peace. Corporate media should know no peace. Etc.
I hope that doesn’t include legal counsel for the defense. Even the Nazis got a trial.
2. What are you hoping to accomplish with sarcasm? 'Cuz I'm not the enemy...and your enemy doesn't care about your sarcasm anyway.
Always.
I think all his cohorts should be sent to that prison in South Sudan. But first, we’ll put them before a jury of their peers, all fired federal employees!
They chose to defy the Constitution.
We MUST choose to hold them accountable. No leniency.
Oh, that was serious?
For real...what are y'all hoping to gain from them? From tossing them at someone who's basically on your side and looking for a way out of this mess, and back to what America was supposed to be.
Hopelessness = they win.
Bluesky is loaded with keyboard warriors. None of them like it when I remind them that hitting Reply accomplishes nothing.
But for real, "enablers off the hook" means don't vote for people trying to rehab the reputations. Point out where they stood every time they show up in the public eye.
For the most part, it worked for Nixon's henchmen.
