I get the impression that a lot of Americans think that Trump merely ruffled some feathers on the international scene, and that a charm offensive will set things right once he’s gone.
From the outside, we watched you elect Trump twice, and have no reason to believe that the GOP won’t finish what he started. We’ve seen that Americans need to be pushed to the absolute brink before leaning into civic duty and voting. That’s fine and well, except for the fact that they’re a superpower, and the rest of the planet can suffer mightily, while Americans put in suboptimal effort into holding their government accountable.
Until proven otherwise, the United States is always one election cycle away of picking up right where the Trump regime left off.
The above is the undercurrent of my thoughts when getting into the profound fuckover inflicted on my country, while the entirety of the GOP went along with it gleefully.
As an American, I agree 100%. We had a civil war several generations ago and the progressive side showed empathy to the conservative side. Instead of finishing them off as we should have, we allowed them to live. That was a deadly mistake on our part. Conservatives despise empathy and would never show that to us if the tables were reversed. They’ve been rallying for a proper end to our civil war since 1865.
As long as we allow conservatives to continue to exist here, they will continue to cause harm to everyone around them. When they inevitably hold national power again, they will cause harm to everyone around the world again. They truly are pure evil.
It’s not an illusion or a mistake. All conservatives are genuinely evil at their core. As long as we continue to show them mercy, they will continue to oppress and kill everyone they are able. It’s hard-coded into their DNA. We need to finish our civil war properly, or this infestation will continue to grow generation upon generation.
Never, ever trust us as long as conservatives continue to live here. We are infected with a disease long overdue for a cure.
The GOP barely exists now, because of Trump. This used to be a soft power game, lots of behind the scene back room deals. Obama even said corruption under Trump was better than before him because it was public, and in my opinion being done by incompetent idiots where before it was private and being done by very smart and very ruthless men. All of the real GOP has been slowly pushed out since the tea party came to power, if Europe was serious they’d be pointing to the tea party not Trump but that’s neither here nor there. Now it’s just a bunch of obviously stupid obviously incapable corporate puppets clearly unable to keep up the illusion that keeps the money faucets running. The GOP died and what’s left is eating its self. The real issue here is how obviously weak our left wing is, it doesn’t matter if our Conservative Party implodes if our “liberal” party can’t constitute something meaningful and long lasting. We need money out of politics now or the right will rise from the ashes cloaked in back room deals and run by ruthless competent men again.
I would say that Trump exists BECAUSE of the GOP.
Reagan existed BECAUSE of the GOP.
W Bush existed BECAUSE of the GOP.
We are at the apex of the Republican utopia, purchased by the rich, for the rich, where anything goes IF you are rich and the managed dolts keep cheering it on.
This is a minor disruption for the ruling elite.
Nothing is going to change behind the scenes because really nothing has changed.
