Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

There is no way MAGA will accept a Democrat victory in the Midterms, especially if it flips either chamber.
There is no way Trump leaves in 2028.
We ALL already know this in our hearts and our brains. We have to talk about it, and internalize it, and start making contingency plans for those nearly CERTAIN situations.
There's no way that pants shitting mother fucker makes it to the end of his term.
He's literally falling apart before our eyes and his brain is melting, even the best doctor's in the world can only Frankenstein him together so much.
The man ad libbed an hour and a half speech at Davos. We've been hearing reports of his impending demise since 2016. He's got at least another 10 years even if he shits his pants every day.
If there is a civil war, I hope Trump lives long enough to prosecute his end of it. That would make it much easier for Antifa America to subdue the Dogey Confederacy. All the people who give Trump 'great' ideas will cause the Fuher to waste a great deal of resources and coordination on stupidity.
Yes. Agreed. I've already put contingency plans in place for family, friends.
You've made a plan for them? Do they know that?
Oh sheesh, yes, of course. I made plans, shared it with them and they consented to those plans. Sorry for my brevity.
idk if trump will make it to 2028
None of us "know" that. Also- even if it's the illusion of a choice, you do have one: Do something, or don't. Why assume so much?
Yes, we ALL know that. Today, he was doubling down on how Republicans should take over the elections.
You either aren't paying attention, or you're a troll. I suspect the second. Either way, based on that response, nobody is interested in what you have to say.
I mean, I know what you're trying to say, but you're actually accidently correct for reasons you don't mean to be. The election would be 2028. The official transfer of power would be Jan 2029.
So, even with what you're trying to say, trump wouldn't have left in 2028 anyways.
I mean, barring getting kidnapped and forced out of power because he's not physically present.
Real "ACKSHUALLY!" energy.
Yeah, EVERYBODY gets that, thanks.
