Picture an overpriced loafer treading on a human face, forever.

Of course he'll be elected again, because morons always scream and yell the loudest like toddlers throwing a tantrum until they get what they want. If they had their way, only white, heterosexual, neurotypical, cisgender men and women would have a right to live decent lives. Anyone else is, to them, a freak of nature that needs to be locked up in gas chambers.

I've started calling the Trump years onward as "The Great Regression".

Not women, considering that Roe v. Wade was overturned. They would force women back into the kitchens.

We have to convince people that 1950s America was at least as bad as 1930s-40s Germany or Italy.

At this point it feels more like the GOP wants us to return to the 1850's. Complete with african slavery and indigenous genocide. Plus not to mention the fact that women at least had the legal right to legally vote in the US by the late 1950's.

Not just a shitstorm, more of a diarrhea hurricane. :nerdy:

The Simpsons predicted Trump would bankrupt America and leave us at the mercy of countries we owe money to with no solution in sight. We dodged that horrible future the first four years, but if Trump wins a new term, we may not be able to prevent this.

It would be like me boycotting the USA again for 4 years. I don't NEED to cross the border for anything - we have what we need in Canada and I'd rather pay more here for some goods than support an economy headed by the orange guy.

He should be in jail before that could happen, though. Waiting for it.
