    I wanted her to win so desperately, but these headlines just hurt honestly.

    I guess maybe if there was irrefutable evidence that she won it might restore a tiny bit of my faith in humanity.

    … but Trump is supreme leader eternal now, and any day now WW3 is going to start. “Who actually won” isn’t very important.

        Is it though? In a practical sense? I don’t think it’s going to change anyone’s day to day.

        I feel this too. War looks so different these days, but with all the bullshit going on with israel too, its hard to argue that we aren’t already in the early stages of a truly global conflict.

      It would restore some of my faith that my fellow Americans don’t suck as much as I currently think they do. Y’know, before we all get rounded up to die in camps together.

      Supreme leader eternal? There’s a better than even chance that he strokes out sometime in the next 43 months. He deliberately sabotages anyone who could take his place, so there’s no viable heir to hold MAGA together once he’s gone.

        It’s a reference to dictatorships where whatever leader remains so in perpetuity even after death. I can’t remember for sure but I suspect this is the case in DPRK.
