That's what we are to Trump and the right-wing Tech Bros. We are trash to be burned while they make money by selling the energy from the incinerators to the next round of victims.


This is why they’d are all building bunkers. I’m not that worried because we know where they all are.


Castles and armies saved neither Bourbon nor Romanov from inglorious ends.

Now if only the other billionaires would follow suit. This whole nightmare would be over.


Having billionaires call the shots is the nightmare.

No it wouldn’t because the main problem we are facing as a society is the extreme wealth inequality that allows for individuals to have an outsize influence on our elections just because they have $$.

We need ranked choice voting and publicly financed campaigns….yesterday.

You wish.

Don't you think the elections will be rigged (as the POTUS used to claim, remember that back in 2015?) to favor the GOP?

I doubt we'll have another free and fair election for decades.

Republicans other than Trump don't share his superpower (having absolutely no shame). So even if the GOP does rig future elections things will only be Dubya-level-bad, which is a far cry from Trump-level-bad.

And then what? The destruction in just 5.5 mos is difficult to comprehend. There were things I wanted to change and fix, but I did not think our country was a wasteland before Trump came back to office. It's not only that I don't like what he is doing, it's that he is actually doing nothing productive. He is destroying lots of things and building very little. What will be left by 2029?


A gilded age of corruption and poverty.

In countries with multiple parties, the hatred and stupidity are diluted, so to speak, and the voters can move slightly left or slightly red to the next party, with more fluidity. They're not trapped in the GOP because they could never bring themselves to vote for a Democrat, or vice versa. It's really helpful when a leader emerges that's completely nuts. You just slide over to the next party and make do if it's a little too liberal or a little too conservative. And then several parties need to coalesce to govern, which often leads to hilarity, but has never (yet!) led to fascism post-WWII.



In times past, the members of the two parties were colleagues and friends and met together after hours for drinks or dinner. They didn't used to vilify each other. It's a problem, I agree, but not because of the two party system, and the solution is not to have more parties. It's to have better parties and better politicians, and without so much money sloshing through it.
