Trump is going to be a failed president.

The question is whether he leaves us a failed country.

Comments

I don't think there is much of a question. He tanked the country his first time with tax cuts and covid mismanagement. The question is how much will he surpass his own record?

muddles1968.bsky.social•9 days ago

We are a failed country. Nov 5, 2024

soconnor.bsky.social•9 days ago

It’s too late, he already has. The damage he’s done in less than three months will take many years to repair.

milwaukeemelter.bsky.social•9 days ago

He did nothing! We elected him! This is on all Americans. The voters and the mother fuckers who stayed home.

wallawalla-99.bsky.social•9 days ago

The US most certainly will be a failed state, if it remains a state at all.

A pariah state like North Korea.

If feel bad for the Canadians and Mexicans.

fortismaximus.bsky.social•9 days ago

He's doing putins bidding. Destroy our institutions, our economy, our alliances, our standing. What's left? When will we wake up and accept trump is a Russian asset?

fortismaximus.bsky.social•9 days ago

There's no way this is utter incompetence is accidental. This is planned. We are under attack.

504spyboy.bsky.social•9 days ago

I think we can all agree - the rational 'we' - that we want Trump to be a failed president. The more he fails, the more remains of our country.

sndrp.bsky.social•9 days ago

We’re already a failed country. We elected him a second time even after it’s been proven he’s a traitor, rapist and felon, and he let a million Americans die during Covid.

trixienorton.bsky.social•9 days ago

We're a failed country. The question now is, can we stop the senile madman from engulfing the world in war and poverty before climate change takes away many of our options. This is harder as a failed country.

cymchoke.bsky.social•9 days ago

I don’t think that is an open question. We are already a failed country based on what Trump has done since January 20.

donotcave.bsky.social•9 days ago

going to be?

It is here.

one-if-by-land.bsky.social•9 days ago

The question is where he LEAVES at all!

brentwokmaster.bsky.social•9 days ago

I think this question has already been answered

kestell7881.bsky.social•9 days ago

He is already a failed president!

csmith24.bsky.social•9 days ago

He already failed us with Covid and his initial tax cuts. He seems to want to finish the job now.

#Resistance Find a march, make a plan & bring friends Saturday, April 5th✊🏻💙✌🏻

libranan.bsky.social•9 days ago

Oops, too late, already done.

johndmoyers.bsky.social•9 days ago

You should be ashamed of all you did earlier in your career to lay the foundation for the Trump/MAGA GOP today...

We're now living the corrupt reality you and your ilk worked so hard to cultivate... You were a central figure.

How about a mea culpa?
Own your error. Tell-all.

Or STFU.

teaboonhills.bsky.social•9 days ago

To be honest, we have been a C grade for a long time. The fall is not that far. Maybe now we will finally hit the books.

philosoraptor3000.bsky.social•9 days ago

America is gone. There is absolutely no way back from this.

Even if America manages to rebuild itself, trump has shown that the underlying political system doesn't work.

I genuinely don't know where you go from here apart from revolution. This can't happen again.

milanasanovic.bsky.social•9 days ago

Deep that took you all morning to think off

paulcurran.bsky.social•9 days ago

A country that elects Trump not once but twice is a failed country. Only question is do we ever recover.

nlipschu.bsky.social•9 days ago

He had already failed I hope some folks grow a pair to pull the country out of his mess!

larryarcher.bsky.social•9 days ago

Nightmare scenario - if he and MAGA GOP follow the path of dictatorship, which looks increasingly likely

suebeedefender.bsky.social•9 days ago

The question is whether he leaves in a casket or chains.

toototabon1.bsky.social•9 days ago

Going to be?

dell10.bsky.social•9 days ago

I want to start a TDS awareness campaign. Everyone gets a pin that says, "TDS Pride."

pauldu.bsky.social•9 days ago

He has moved into a statistical tie with himself as ‘Worst American President of All Time’

pipercat.bsky.social•9 days ago

He already has

joelspiegel.bsky.social•9 days ago

That ship sailed. The question is a matter of degree.

axlrows.bsky.social•9 days ago

The Neo-Reactionaries are obviously encouraging his dumbest ideas. They want him/MAGA to fail spectacularly.

pham60.bsky.social•9 days ago

I predict he will be impeached and convicted.

pooneil1.bsky.social•9 days ago

He was already a failed president, and much worse. America elected him for a second bite anyway.

From a non America perspective, it's getting increasingly difficult to accept the 'not all Americans' excuse.

distractible.bsky.social•9 days ago

We elected him for a second term, so I think that question is answered.

ctuescher.bsky.social•8 days ago

We are a failed country because we elected him, not once but twice. That is a failed country. Hopefully, there is enough left to rebuild, but we will be rebuilding from a failed state.

danajae33.bsky.social•9 days ago

Certainly seems likely with tariffs and looming debt ceiling as the icing on the demolition of our government cake being delivered to Putin on a silver platter by Krasnov.

ronaldjoosten.bsky.social•9 days ago

Liberation Day will be the day when #Trump leaves office...

#FollowMe #RePost

welshrarebit.bsky.social•9 days ago

As the failure of the economic policy becomes manifest, his supporters are likely to respond by a search for internal scapegoats. I can already hear the Fox pundits clamouring for blood.

mike-farmer.bsky.social•9 days ago

It will take decades to repair the damage done in just 3 months.

tea2opals.bsky.social•9 days ago

Trump 2020 'Joe Biden and the radical, socialist Democrats would immediately collapse the economy. If they got in, they would collapse it. You’ll have a crash the likes of which you’ve never seen before. Your stocks, your 401(k)s.And those stocks will crash like you’ve never seen before is done.' 🤨

mkwilson27.bsky.social•9 days ago

Will the republicans in Congress *let* him destroy the country? Wish I felt confident they wouldn’t.

barkofatree.bsky.social•9 days ago

If we are united. Meaning one.

greenjoel.bsky.social•9 days ago

would a country that hadn't already failed tolerate this BS?

milwaukeemelter.bsky.social•9 days ago

I can't stand people like Bill. I mean, WTF?

stholeary.bsky.social•9 days ago

We already are a failed country

janw69.bsky.social•9 days ago

Is that a question? Look at all those states and counties where countless people believe this vile person is Jesus incarnated. We are all paying a big price for the infinite lie enshrined in your constitution. Lofty words but wasted on the most of you. What a failed society your country has become.

lori44.bsky.social•9 days ago

Of course he will

dachte.bsky.social•9 days ago

I think some degree of this is inevitable given that we elected him twice and other countries will remember our invasion threats and unfriendliness towards other western nations, as well as stepping away from international orgs.

It's just a matter of degrees.

imchuckmiller.bsky.social•9 days ago

Only a “failed country” would elect someone like him in the first place.

free-ish.bsky.social•9 days ago

Pretty much a guarantee should feckless Republicans maintain control of Congress

demiliopics2.bsky.social•9 days ago

Or whether we seize the opportunity he unthinkingly leaves us to build something new for the 21st century.

pintoman99.bsky.social•9 days ago

As long as he's King, he'll rule over the ashes. FOXTROT DELTA TANGO.

loumar56.bsky.social•9 days ago

Going to be ! He was before and is now a failed President!

donalddrumpf2025.bsky.social•9 days ago

Too late

lbbog.bsky.social•9 days ago

He will. Everything he touches dies

deesd.bsky.social•9 days ago

Question? Fact!

direneeds.bsky.social•9 days ago

If we let this guy stay in office we won't have a country to salvage!

mariopro.bsky.social•9 days ago

votona.bsky.social•9 days ago

I so want him to fail, but unfortunately, that will mean a failed economy that only hurts the working people. The rich have enough to see themselves through.

angelpark3.bsky.social•9 days ago

EXACTLY HE NEEDS A MENTAL INSTITUTION AND BEAT UP. IM CRAZY AND I APPROVE THIS MESSAGE 😄

usedtobeandy.bsky.social•9 days ago

Is that even a question? 🙄

We’re failing bigly!!! 💁‍♂️

arcadianvision.bsky.social•9 days ago

Perhaps you should remove him NOW?

various1966.bsky.social•9 days ago

The question is how long before J.D calls him a mad king and tries to take his job.

g-rod555.bsky.social•9 days ago

Going to be?

He already is.

He already has been.

michelecollins5411.bsky.social•9 days ago

he already is & yes, he will.

charlto.bsky.social•9 days ago

Populists usually leave a mess behind them when they’re finally turfed. Trump would be no different. That’s because they’re usually elected on nonsense policies by desperate or delusional people.

ryandleonard.bsky.social•9 days ago

All signs point to yes. It could take a decade to get back to normalcy. And that’s only in the damage he’s done in 2 months.

anyolejoe.bsky.social•9 days ago

“Going to be?” That train left the station in 2017.

grouchoalm.bsky.social•9 days ago

We are a failed country. We allowed a man with multiple indictments to run for president. Then we elected him. Our Supreme Court helped to destroy us by passing Citizens United. We are now laughed at and disrespected by the rest of the world. ETTD

dmax12345.bsky.social•9 days ago

Very good chance of that him leaving us as a failed country. A frighteningly good chance.

princa.bsky.social•9 days ago

He knows he is a one-term president. If he really thought he could have another term, he would never do this....

mark-darson.bsky.social•9 days ago

Question?

def-539.bsky.social•9 days ago

Not going to be. Is.

greatscottict.bsky.social•9 days ago

or a country at all.

indazone.bsky.social•9 days ago

It's done already.

joshilaw.bsky.social•9 days ago

Our empire's Nero.

torymediapitchbot.bsky.social•9 days ago

America became a failed country when you ejected him the first time. there’s no coming back from that

acrossroads.bsky.social•9 days ago

Going to be?

richardbellavance.bsky.social•9 days ago

Lindsey Graham didn't know it at the time, but the "we" in his infamous tweet was referring to the USA as a whole.

lpdoak.bsky.social•9 days ago

Eh, I'd say broaden that view.

The GOP is about to be a failed party. Where obsessive self-interest and access to power reigned supreme.

milwaukeemelter.bsky.social•9 days ago

Dude? WTF? We already are! People voted for him! That's a fucking fail!

foreverdaff.bsky.social•9 days ago

Is that still a question???

rasalvatore.bsky.social•9 days ago

I remember COVID. He already was a horribly failed President, likely the worst in history.

Now he's going to try to eclipse that.

So, who's he going to bomb to change the channel? My bet is Iran.

uppidywoman.bsky.social•9 days ago

I’d argue he has already permanently damaged international relations and trade. They may improve if the Nazis are flushed out of government, but some of that damage will be permanent.

trixienorton.bsky.social•9 days ago

We flushed the Nazis out once, but we brought them back. If we flush them out again, the world still won't trust us, for good reason.
