I wonder if he knows that 50% of cable watchers have already tuned out because they can’t tolerate watching his ugly face, or hearing his whiny voice any longer? We’re over the Trump Show, & we refuse to give him the attention he craves.
I want to believe that so bad but I was the person telling everyone 8 years ago that in 10 years, it would be hard to find anyone that would admit to voting for Trump. The last election showed how wrong I was.
Hope that's true, but the vast majority of his support is a cult. When eggs cost the same or more, they'll argue eggs are the cheapest they've ever been. So, I'm skeptical.
Why not avoid the issue altogether? "But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability" per the Constitution so use the bill at https://usareset.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=41 and watch it FAIL to get the 2/3 needed and thus permit clear enforcement by blocking Trump from the Presidency.
Maybe you're right but in four years they will forget that and be ready to vote stupid again. Long term memory is not an attribute voters seem to possess. Good thing we are amassing an army of activists to keep it front and center.
I hope you're right. This electorate seems to be suffering from a mass psychosis. Hard to say what reality they will perceive when they suffer under the (tiny) hands they voted for.
Exactly right. There is no way forward except to let this play out so they can learn the hard way. It’s the only way. It can actually be quite freeing to think about it like this.
Unlikely at this point. MAGAts have projected all of their alleged victimhood and persecution onto that man; he's now an official martyr to them. The only thing I've seen that would make any difference to a MAGAt is ANY challenge to the 2nd Amendment. Again, unlikely.
Yes, I think this time around, he will succeed in his own undoing. It's going to take 2 years for his supporters to realize wth is happening and another 2 to realize their part in it. All his accomplices will be punished, though he won't be. His presidential corruption and harm will be his legacy.
Hmmm..not so sure about that. We thought the same about Brexit. While Brexit is generally understood now to be a self-inflicted disaster by most people, those who voted for it either pretend it's all great or refuse to speak about it. You can expect the same with the Trump cult .
Obviously they voted for him and they will continue to vote Republican even in the senate.Kamala Harris warned everyone.Racism is alive in Ametica.A divided Country,who will reap what they sow.I predict a War in America.
Remember how Repubs called Dems 'America/Troop haters' (this was before they elected a guy who calls US Troops 'suckers and losers') "Terrorist/Saddam lovers"...for opposing going into Iraq...then when that war went South BLAMED Democrats for "voting for it"?. THAT'S what will happen, re: Trump.
Agreed -- The right will be relentless and unified in asserting the power of the "deep state" to thwart Trump's good intentions while the NYT will routinely publish articles explaining accuracies in that argument.
i think there's some truth to that but i think it's important not to overestimate him. his cult will never waver, but despite this he still lost in 2020, not to mention hasn't the GOP been doing poorly in midterms?
not to mention, he was apparently aided by muslim and hispanic voters, both of which seem to be having buyers remorse? (or will soon shortly after he takes office.... 😬)
Dems across the board need to learn to get on the same msg about calling out his failures repeatedly, but they’ll still be writing strongly-worded letters to McConnell & arguing how the pardon is wrong & ruins Biden’s legacy. 🙄
"Why this is Joe Biden's fault..." 🙄 Sadly, there's already a lot of that going around on democratic side. What's the most frustrating to me is that so far, Joe Biden, and a bunch of (mostly) minority women are the only ppl to stand up to Trump, and it's really easy to cast stones from the sidelines
The Democrats, with people, resources and the power os being in office, could not even win an election that should have been a slam dunk, how are we supposed to believe that they will do better in 2 years?
there could be a lot of irreparable damage in a two year time frame. Project 2025 is unfolding as planned and intends to make the new administration and/or its policies/methods a "natural state" of governance.
It will take longer than 2 years for the negative effects of Trumps policies to come to fruition. This is why I say Dems need to tank 2028. The effects of his policies need to be felt while Republicans are in power, otherwise they will blame Dems.
He’s had plenty of rope throughout his life. Problem is, people keep making excuses & throwing him a lifeline (more rope) & never allow the natural consequences of his actions. Even Hitler & Sadam Hussein had consequences.
Agreed. I think we're past any chance of this happening, and people need to wake up to it. It's not an easy thing to come to terms with. The media is going whole hog in their adoration and normalization. It's time to shift gears and adapt.
Yes but so far there were no serious consequences for all (apart from the dead of Covid).This economy was long predicted for a recession. It won't tolerate too much malarkey.
If Elon wasn't in the mix, I'd disagree with you. But with Elon seeming to be all powerful, you may well be right.
Look at what he was just able to do with the sale of Alex Jones' Infowars to the Onion.
He has corrupted everything.
Pretty sure there are already people who are not admitting to voting for the big orange turd. I wish the Democrats would get their heads out their rear ends right now and start looking at 2026 and 2028. Get the right people ready to be elected. We can’t wait on him to hang himself.
MAGA House have the majority & also the total responsibility to pass budget / spending bills or a CR.
Americans will only be motivated to action if they see the full consequences of MAGA rule
If the gov’t shuts down it’s on them.
Democrats - Please vote NO on any spending bills or CR.
Dems took the Biden years off, figuring Trump would fade away or be taken care of by the courts. They were so very wrong. Giving time to Trump to screw up and the American people to figure that out for themselves is so monumentally a misreading of past history, I wonder where this person has been.
You're 100% correct. We need to fight, loudly and aggressively, against everything he does that's bad. He won't be hanging himself with his own rope, he'll be hanging us, and he'll spin whatever story he needs to to justify it or deflect blame. We need to wake up and get to work.
I wish that were true. I have pretty much lost hope they will see the man for what & who he really is. If they couldn't see the past 8 yrs I doubt the next 2 will change a thing
It's not just his voters. Some Latinos, white women, and Black men voted against their own interest. Why? Because Trump has permeated the atmosphere with his lies and misinformation.
• that you can not trust the Constitution, news media, the federal government, the school system, climate change science, or medical science, and
• that so much is wrong with this country, only he can fix it.
Or at least they see him for what he is and would rather have that than a minority woman. 🤯 It's totally mind boggling, but we *have* to address the deep, deep misogynoir in this country. This election has shown us that 49.something% of ppl would rather give up their rights than their racism.
If they are anything like the people who voted for Brexit and who are now subsequently living with the consequences of that clown show, they will find somebody to blame and it won't be Trump.
We must spend the time attacking the Republican Party, not Trump. Republicans are responsible for everything Trump screws up. They shouldn't be allowed to purify themselves by sending Trump as a scapegoat into the wilderness.
Yes. We can’t pretend that Trump is an aberration. He is the GOP and GOP is him. The current GOP is hateful, deceitful, and greedy. Just like their leader.
Absolutely correct. From Reagan onward, they created the environment that resulted in President Trump, and when they had the chance to flush him via impeachment, they refused to do so. They are complicit in all of his crimes.
But all pundits and media other than Fox, said once he got elected, he'd have absolute immunity and there wouldn't be any more election. Serious question: is this now wishful thinking? They are mutually exclusive thoughts.
I think we need to go after him hard, relentlessly mocking him, exposing his Russian mafia ties, embarrass him. Do what George and Adam do, call him out! It’s the opposite of “obey in advance”. He is not competent. He’s a fool and everything he touches, dies. He wants us quiet and in fear. No way!
I disagree. The GOP already is starting the '26 demonization campaign. The Democrats will whine and laugh off and poo poo the GOP, who will likely run the table again, and we will find ourselves under single party, minority rule.
Really, believe I heard the same thing in the beginning of his first term. Don't get me wrong dislike the fucker by your beef is with over 50% of the american voters/your country. You wanna give american enough rope to hand it self?
We're you not alive in 2016? He hanged himself repeatedly during his first term, became a multiple felon during Biden's, told people he would be a dictator in Day 1, yet people were still proud to vote for him. You're the worst prognosticator in history.
I think you underestimate the fervor of his cult members: the German people didn't start to question their faith in Hitler until Stalingrad, and their death tolls.
If things are going poorly at the end of 2025 (likely) GOP congress members who want to get reelected will start running in January 2026 and move away from an unpopular administration.
It seems Trump could walk on stage, undress, urinate on a bible, rape a nun then wipe his penis on a US flag & MAGA would cheer!
They would say it’s a new sport & want it included in the Olympics!
MAGA ARE NOW JUST A FASCIST CULT.
ALWAYS RESIST!!
NEVER:
- Give MAGA & other fascists, exposure, equal time or credence.
- Normalise their words & actions
- Obey in advance
- Validate their hateful, factless, racist, misogynistic, unscientific opinions & scams
- Encourage the spread of their cult & their anti-social behaviour
Two years from now, this country and the world, will be in very deep trouble, if he and his cult gain full power. Admitting we voted for him will be law.
Problem is we've been saying, "In [X] years, nobody will admit that they voted for Trump" for eight years now, and it hasn't happened. You'd think the botched pandemic response and January 6 would've done it, but nope.
I disagree. People weren't bothered that he's a felon/rapist. He has escaped any & all accountability for his crimes. I just don't see him ever fading, & he'll be a martyr in death. Never underestimate the power he has now with Putin & musk.
You only need see the continuous success of:
1) Putin in Rus for 24 yrs (& min another 8 yrs)
2) Erdogan in Tur ~19 yrs & counting
3) Modi in Ind ~11 yrs (& another 4 near-guaranteed)
4) Xi in Chn ~12 yrs (& till he lives)
& other similar autocrats to know how hollow this argument is wrt Trump.
Hmmm, not so sure about his deluded base,Sara.. but I agree absolutely about the ordinary folk who voted for him largely due to the cost of groceries etc. Basically proves people are interested in their direct self interests and less the greater causes,upon which Dem hopes were founded. Bummer.
not a chance. After being horrifically cruel his first term (family separation at border, mass deportations, muslim ban) inciting an insurrection, a bungled pandemic, and so much more,
people looked back on his presidency wistfully. Our country is full of imbeciles who pay no attention to anything
Yes. Maximize his chaos. The more chaos he creates, the more infighting he stokes, the faster we will plow through this nightmare to a better place. Let’s annoy, confuse, disrupt and agitate him and make noise!
I think we need to be vocally against his more damaging policies, so they can't blame it on Democrats. And when I say vocally I mean LOUD AS SHIT about it. Like everywhere. The news, social media, holding signs on the street, billboards, planes with the signs on the back, the whole enchilada!
We should not get too much in the way of him doing some of his more idiotic ideas. Likely he has the momentum now anyway.
Let him issue his crazy tariffs. Make sure he works against undocumented laborers equally. Don't let him ignore friendly employers.
It’s like staffing a ship with drunken idiots- it’s all fun and games until they sink after hitting the iceberg. Probably won’t take 2 years at the rate they’re going.
I hope you are right but his voters valued the price of eggs over women’s right to make their own healthcare decisions. I still can’t listen to his voice without cringing
The DSA (Divided States of America) has been set/established by the MAGA GOP, libertarians, Trump and his managers/psychophants. Trumpism doesn't need Donald, it’s a willfully-ignorant cartel that will unload its woes + suffering to anyone outside their group regardless, no self accountability.
It’s counterintuitive but the worse he does the better. And the one thing you can always count on with Trump is that he will fail. Spectacularly. The only problem is the irreversible damage he will do till then.
I remember this being said throughout his 1st term, then he preplanned his deadly coup attempt and forged fake electors and got away with it all, even espionage. He will never be held accountable as Garland protected him more than our national security and our Constitution.
Oh, how I love your optimism! 🙌 I believe it’s going to take a LOT longer than that. An ocean liner, not a speed boat.
The delusional thinking of MAGA runs deep. Vance & the Heritage crooks have the oligarchy billionaire backing.
This is going to take a revolutionary reboot.
That said: 💙💙💙💙💙💙
That’s really optimistic of you. I have absolutely zero faith that cult members will change their minds at all about their Dear Leader. He could kill their mothers in front of them, they would fawn and bow and lick his boots harder.
That rope's been around his neck for years. He attempted it several times, but always manages to squeeze out by lying to a gullible electorate. The third times a charm has long past. I don't have fate in change from past experience. We need to use the courts, with some jail time for it to sink in.
Wow! If I wrote that on Twitter, I’d be put in timeout for 7 days , apparently ‘Rope to hang themselves’ is threatening comments.
Ce la vie
Hope you are right
I doubt it. MAGA are far too emotionally invested to give him up. People supported Mugabe all the way into undeniable economic ruin. Maduro still has a base of power. MAGA will stick with their messiah into whatever he brings.

NOTHING will ever make these people ashamed of Trump because they are incapable of shame, and the chaos and dysfunction feels like home to them.
Waiting for the dead to wake up is a waste of time and strategy. 🤷🏼♂️
It’s all on him and the republicans
Going to blow like an acme dynamite kit.
Doesn't matter how bad things get
They will blame everyone else
Biden, MSNBC, the weather
They'll ALL still take Communion at the Altar of Trump
They are without conscience
Incapable of introspection
The weakest among us
Expect nothing good from them
Cuz that's what we'll get
Look at what he was just able to do with the sale of Alex Jones' Infowars to the Onion.
He has corrupted everything.
If that doesn't work, he will blame it on Democrats and RINOs.
If that doesn't work, ...
What am I talking about? That always works.
Americans will only be motivated to action if they see the full consequences of MAGA rule
If the gov’t shuts down it’s on them.
Democrats - Please vote NO on any spending bills or CR.
They've been wrong every...fucking...time...
He convinced Americans that • Obama was not eligible to be president
• that increasing the number of people with healthcare is bad
• that so much is wrong with this country, only he can fix it.
Sadly soon, they will awake from their dreams to find themselves trapped in his nightmare.
Would VP Harris had won Georgia but for the bomb threats?
If they are anything like the people who voted for Brexit and who are now subsequently living with the consequences of that clown show, they will find somebody to blame and it won't be Trump.
On my forever shit list.
They would say it’s a new sport & want it included in the Olympics!

Don't be a Pollyanna.
Because stupidity is forever, and spite is addictive.
