Now I can watch terminally online lefties lose their shit and seethe while knowing it's not going to be nearly as bad as everyone says. It's going to be entertaining to watch everyone freak out over nothing.
Trump already killed millions during COVID. Remember when a deadly disease broke out, killing millions, and the Republican stance was both "It doesn't exist." and "China did it."?
Literally a global pandemic and these people can't even focus on a solution.
It was 5 years ago.
It killed hundreds of thousands, not millions, but your point still stands. If I were Harris, I would've made a bigger deal about Trump's COVID response, because I'm pretty sure that's why he lost last time. Perhaps she didn't want to do that because Biden wasn't much better.
1.2 million estimated in the US, especially if you track the "fell off a ladder, definitely Covid" stuff.
Have you read Project 2025? Your country will literally have a government that can implement all of this without resistance. If a group of people had enough fervour to write such a document, do you honestly think that with all this power they wouldn't implement anything from it?
On top of that, while the US pulls into itself and has a less global presence, it's going to affect the global economy very negatively as the balance of power shifts. With DT at the helm, the balance of power will tip towards China being the next biggest economy.
Anyway, you may not notice a big change unless you're wealthy. Under DT, the poor stay poor but the rich get richer.
None of that's going to get implemented, and the big money's still going to be in charge, just like it always was. Conspiracy theories on the left, and the right, lol.
Why not, though? What's stopping anything from being implemented?
Your myopia is untreatable.
