Can he even give a proper definition of wokeness? -

Leo please do your part to become apart of the resistance. Voices of reason are being drowned out by right wing buffoonery and its leading far too many astray. -
Trump is 78 years old and his only reason for running is to avoid jail time. There's a good chance he resigns shortly after being elected in exchange for his crimes being pardoned. The Christian Theocracts have been playing the long game for decades now and have possibly outwitted everyone. True to some extent. Trump will no doubt dismantle the government but he's still a bit of a wild card. He serves himself first and foremost. I think this is why JD Vance was ultimately chosen for VP. On another point I really don't see how all of this is sustainable. Even if Kamala wins, MAGA itself will not go away. Right wing billionaires will still own most of the media platforms in this country. Misinformation will continue to proliferate. People will get dumber with social media brainrot. What realistically can a Kamala administration due to combat this problem? Especially if she doesn't have a trifecta (House, Senate, and Presidency). In 4 years we'll be at this exact same point again. Ripping our hair out and in an existential crisis about the future of democracy in this country. Without strong actions fascism will eventually win.

Loved the most recent blog post. I agree that people aren't taking a 2nd Trump presidency seriously enough. This time there will be no guardrails to prevent him from following through on his worst impulses. However, I do think there's a possibility that the 25th Amendment is invoked and Vance becomes president. And I think that will be in some aspects worse. He'll undoubtedly carry out Project 2025 and be a vessel for right wing billionaire silicon valley tech bros like Musk and Peter Thiel.

Smh. This is exhausting. How did society get like this? -

What more can really be said at this point. If you're still supporting this man then you're on the wrong side of history. The choice is clear. Democracy or Fascism. -

Strongly disagree. Tell that to all the women who've lost their reproductive freedom. -
Its all so overwhelming and discouraging. It certainly feels like we're going to have to live through the excesses of stage orange to become a wiser society.

This is and the fact that he's against regulation. The fact that a lot of these silicon valley billionaires are openly backing MAGA (ex Peter Thiel backing JD Vance) is deeply troubling and portends disturbing things for the future. Its especially troubling considering these guys are steering the direction of A.I.

Thank God you're not an American voter. The fewer misinformed people we have deciding the fate of our country the better. -
This is legitmately scary. Its crazy how fast things are unraveling in this country. Even with Trump's 1st term and attempted coup I didn't imagine things would get this bad. If Biden or whatever Democrat isn't elected in 2024, I'm not sure how we're going to get through this.

This is an excellent resource for understanding the consequences of a 2nd Trump presidency in conjunction with Project 2025. I encourage everyone to read the PDF provided on the site. It's pretty scary folks https://www.authoritarianplaybook2025.org/

much agreed. It's the perception of it being unfair by a sizeable voting bloc that I worry about slightly. -

I would love to see a Whitmer replace Biden. She's my governor and she's awesome. Also, with abortion being on the ballot it will bring out the suburban mom vote. Unfortunately, America has regressed a bit and is too steeped in racism for Kamala or Michelle Obama to take Biden's place. The only downside is that if Kamala is skipped over it may risk depressing the black vote (who're the bedrock of the Democratic Party). It will be seen as deeply unfair but it's a necessary evil for the good of the country.
