I'd like to get off mr bones wild ride please, I'm not having a good time.
No such thing. You're thinking yesterday, I'mma need ya to start thinking tomorrow.
You guys keep talking about the justice system taking action—or that there's nothing we can do—over and over again. Frankly, given my situation, I’ll be fine. But if things truly fall apart, I have no doubt that a significant portion of the country will be on the brink of collapse. At that point, I’d wager that those with nothing left to lose—especially those in rural communities—will take matters into their own hands.
If the judiciary fails to act, and as some of you pessimistically claim, 'nothing can be done,' history suggests that the most desperate will eventually force a reckoning. I mentioned this earlier in the discussion: the people who currently idolize Trump with near-religious fervor will turn on him when they can no longer feed their families. Some argue they’ll blame the Democrats, but that narrative only holds up for so long when reality doesn’t match the rhetoric.
Bringing it back to the election, many said, 'But the economy looks good on paper,' while others responded, 'It doesn’t feel good, though.' That works both ways—and when the breaking point arrives, the consequences will be undeniable.
I think we all realize that nothing we can do means legally.
Guns will end up settling all of this unless something totally unexpected happens. Either the army turns on the administration or the populace does. Either way it'll be a bloodbath.
I'm no prepper but I'm not getting caught unaware either.
I'm firm in the belief that most of Trumps biggest to milquetoast supporters, will never turn on him completely and will continue to find a way to blame someone else or agree wholeheartedly with whoever Trump decides to pin the blame. It's the same shit that Republican-led states have done for years. They are the ones who have remained in power and control all levers of the government, yet somehow the problems lie firmly with the opposition party and their supporters eat that shit up.
Ive been alive long enough to realize that the days where Americans rose up to lift even one fucking finger to stop their oppression long passed. (I'm not even "that" old)
They will bitch. They will complain. They will cry. They will go back to work monday or they will starve to death. Period. We lost.
Can't get off your phones for 5 whole minutes. Can't sit through an entire movie before your "ADHD" kicks in. Can't walk your ass to the corner, you have to pay uber to bring you food. It's a wrap.
What will happen first? Race riots ala 2020 Trayvon Martin or a Farmers riot because all their subsidies are going to Tesla?
I think the support would only wane in any meaningful amount if he started asking them to take up arms and die in the streets for him. Which is why that's not gonna happen.
I was actually talking about this the other day with some people. About how we're one cop pulling a Chauvin away from a full blown category 5 shitstorm.
Just one guy that decides YOLO. Instant national chaos of untold proportions. Cities would burn, Trump would send in the military, and at that point anything could happen.
If it comes to that, its on the military grunts morals to realize killing & jailing their own kind wont make their life better for tomorrow, because tomorrow it could be them.
FEMA didn't violate any policies like they're accusing, and they've been creating a lying shit storm just to perform theatrics and take the money from NYC. The funds were allocated by Congress under the Shelter and Services Program.

lol. "Our voters keep calling us asking us to do something!!!!"A closed-door meeting for House Democrats this week included a gripe-fest directed at liberal grassroots organizations, sources tell Axios.
Why it matters: Members of the Steering and Policy Committee — with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) in the room — on Monday complained activist groups like MoveOn and Indivisible have facilitated thousands of phone calls to members' offices.
Well, they are wasting fundraising dollars getting Democrats to harass Democrats when there is nothing to do because they don't have a better idea.
