To be quite frank, that kind of false-equivalency or bothsideism thinking is an example of how people like you go too far with centrism, which plays right into the hands of authoritarians like Trump even though Trump will never gain total unchecked power like Hitler or Stalin did.

Every now and then one needs to be reminded of the Oneness of things.  Whether for good or ill.  I felt this was one of those times. Because @Leo Gura spits on Trump so much i felt it necessary to remind him of his Absolute Sovereignty.  And that he chose to bring such a vile snake into this universe. As did you.

That all sounds good, but you can't just sit back and do nothing to fight against a monster like Trump/MAGA. You have to choose the right side of things from a truly wise and forward-thinking perspective.

So, you want to just give up and let the authoritarians win?

Do you know which party has the more popular and more effective policies?

What kind of leader do you exactly suppose should run the country who has a real shot at winning the presidency sometime soon?

Which party should run the country?

Maybe its Musk's party 😀  Because i don't see a lot of policy from either.  Trumps bill is a whole lot of nothing from what I can see.  He claims all these tax cuts but the middle class won't see it... But what did the dems do? Nada. I'm just discouraged in general.

Honestly USA is cooked, if you want to continue to live there in a ridiculous 2 party system, that's on you at this point. If you are not a broke ass father of like 4 kids or something and it is at all within the realm off possibility to leave, that is your best option - not to expect the crooked ass USA to "just improve" cuz it will only get a lot worse.

Then, you are greatly misinformed about what happened during Biden’s presidency. It was the most progressive in terms of policy since Lyndon B. Johnson’s in the 1960s. He helped save the country from one of the worst recessions since the Great Depression, presided over the strongest economy since Clinton in the 1990s, oversaw the highest number of jobs created by any one-term president in U.S. history, and initiated the creation of brand-new, good-paying working-class jobs unlike any president since the mid-20th century. He was the most pro-union president since FDR and Truman, helped bring the U.S. poverty rate to its lowest level ever—especially when looking at the four-year average—and oversaw an exceptional soft landing from high inflation. He also led the country through the COVID-19 pandemic and greatly help save us from it. Additionally, Biden signed a bipartisan law codifying nationwide gay marriage rights. And that’s still only a portion of the major achievements during his presidency.

As for Obama’s presidency, he was the second most progressive president in policy since LBJ. He helped save the country from the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, and by the end of his presidency, the economy had returned to full strength. He also enacted—with Congress—historic financial regulations to prevent another crisis like the one in 2008. Furthermore, he passed the Affordable Care Act, which became one of the most pro-working-class reforms in modern times and the most comprehensive overhaul of the healthcare system since the 1960s. On top of that, he and then-VP Biden publicly supported and helped shift public opinion on gay marriage, playing a crucial role in paving the way for the 2015 Supreme Court ruling that granted nationwide marriage equality for the first time in U.S. history. And again, that’s just a fraction of what was accomplished during his time in office.

He apparently, according to Wikipedia, donated tens of millions of dollars to Harvard. What connections does a college dropout millionaire philanthropist with connections to every elite politician and sex trafficker have with Harvard and higher education?

Meh, this isn’t too unusual IMO. Once someone is worth $100 million+ they pretty much gain access and connections to all elite institutions, not just the ones they came out of.

Like, why do British royals, stock brokers, Hollywood actors and university professors all hang out with each other? They call come from completely different fields. The answer is simply wealth and influence - if you have both all sorts of people will come knocking on your door.

Why would a person with so many skeletons in the closet choose to be in the spotlight? 

He could live his whole life and die without paying for any of his crimes, but he had to be the center of attention and this attention made people investigate his life ever deeper. 

If I were him, I would just lay low, do my grifts, enjoy my money and that's it.

It's because, at a fundamental level, he believes that he's special and that it's justified if he has skeletons in the closet because he's superior to everyone else and he has to right to do whatever he pleases, regardless of who it harms.

So, he doesn't care if people see the skeletons, as long as he can continue skirting legal responsibility for them... as he sees himself as far superior to anyone who would judge him for those skeletons.

And he can always choose to tune out from the judgements and invalidate them... and only tune into people who kiss his ass and validate only those ass-kissing perspectives. You can even hear him do that in his speeches.

Consider how most people don't care about what ants think about them. And if they had committed a bunch of crimes against ants and had a bunch of "ant skeletons in their closet", they probably wouldn't care what the ants think of them... as long as there are no tangible consequences.

So, while you would feel ashamed to have your skeletons aired to the public... and most people would also... Trump has all sorts of mechanisms for minimizing the validity of the voices of those who criticize him.

It like he has an auto-marginalizing mechanism in his mind, where he only lets in perspectives that validate him and convey to him that he's the best and most special person on the planet.

How has it been in Florida so far with Trump being president again?

You're mincing paradigms to avoid admitting to yourself the reality of how bad Trump really is.

Sure, from the perspective of ourselves as the "video game designer" of this reality (which we can experience in more expanded state of consciousness)... we have all programmed Trump into the game.

And the video game designer is operating on such a complex "infinite-D chess" level of understanding of things, that it knows exactly what positive and negative components need to be programmed into reality to serve the highest expressions of mercy and goodness. And if we were operating from that depth of understanding (which we presently aren't), we would understand precisely why Trump has been programmed into this game.

It's just like the game designer of the Mario games programmed Bowser into the game, as Bowser is part of the wholeness of the game... as are all positive and negative elements of the game. 

But as I said, that's not the perspective you're actually operating on right now... as you are the avatar of the game in this realm of awareness. You are not currently operating from the perspective of the game designer... but merely pretending to in order to protect your ideas of Trump from being overturned.

And as the avatar of the game, one must honestly engage in the dualistic perspective and be able to discern what is beneficial from that which is detrimental. The video game designer must program in both the negative and positive in the game. But Mario's responsibility is to defeat Bowser.

And right now, you (as Mario) are tricking yourself into believing that you are operating from the perspective of the game designer, such that you don't have to admit to yourself how bad Bowser truly is.... and that you can continue admiring Bowser.

We've been staying off the radar, for the most part. 

But of course, because my husband is an immigrant, we have some fears about him being a target.

We're also a bit concerned about hurricanes this year because of all the resources that have been gutted. We don't trust DeSantis to handle these situations well, given the fact that he's going to want to serve Trump's agenda as much as possible.

But... he seems pretty worried about this whole Epstein situation, not because of shame but because he knows his power depends on his popularity aka other people's opinion. Even dictators know this, that's why they attack all critics, they can't let those ideas spread too much. I guess these people believe that only more and more power can make them safe, so they go all in.

I think that Trump knows that the Epstein situation is about the only that could actually lose him some supporters... as he always gets off scot-free in general and in the eyes of his supporters.

So, it's only because of the potential consequences that he cares to cover this one up.

Otherwise, I'm quite sure that he doesn't care what the plebs think about his character. He probably thinks of himself as uniquely entitled to do whatever he pleases because of his sense of superiority... including but not limited to committing sex crimes on whoever he wants to.

He only cares about the opinions of his fans in-so-far as their opinion is practically necessary to preserve his power. And he knows that most of his hardcore fans will be loyal to him with literally everything but pedophilia. And some, of course, would still be loyal to him after that... and engage in all manner of rationalization to preserve their identity of allegiance to him.

But he'd likely lose at least a quarter of his hardcore supporters if it were definitively revealed that he committed sex crimes against children... which would be an impediment to his power.
