    Polls and public opinion no longer matter. This regime is behaving as if they have no intention of ever ceding power. They’ve already demonstrated that the constitution can be ignored at will. They’ll declare permanent martial law and suspend elections indefinitely.

    The Constitutional Republic of the United States of America no longer exists.

    It’s now an authoritarian dictatorship (and a puppet government of Putin at that), and will remain one until an actual revolution happens.

    Could be decades.

    If Trump is the businessman he says he is then he should be inviting everybody to the table to talk business instead of all this posturing.

    They’ll be pushed across that line in the sand very soon, and they’ll say they’ve always been on that side of the line as the next line is drawn.

    I fucking hate the ignorant.

      There is a real fracture right now and there has never been a better chance to break away even a small fraction of MAGA support from Trump.

    Trump supporters will bend over backwards to defy reality to believe in him. They respond with anger for even asking them to think about anything he does. I have a Republican co-worker that was going to retire this year. He had planed to retire in March but he “needs to figure out this Medicare thing.” I told him Trump might just take care of that for you because it will be gone and not an option. He jumped up and started screaming at me that Trump wouldn’t do that to him. Trump would never do that to him. I told him he needs to pull his head of that Fox news bubble and look around. A bunch of bad shit is about to fall on you and your chronically ill wife if Trump wins.

    They don’t want to be exposed for refusing to enlist or be drafted, because they are “alphas” after all
