America - you are so fucked.
Not just America, another Trump presidency is bad news for all of us. Yes, the USA is not the center of the world but they do have a lot of influence.
Unfortunately we are the rome of our time...and we seem to be following in their footsteps more and more.
Hey mighty brontosaurus
Don't you have a lesson for us
You thought your rule would always last
There were no lessons in your past
You were built three stories high
They say you would not hurt a fly
If we explode the atom bomb
What would they say when we were gone?
Walking in your footsteps...
There's a lot of far right movement happening around the world and evertime they come back from their propaganda meetings in Hungary, there's a new far right idea regurgitated. Even Trump and other Republicans went and came bace with talking terms for Republican Americans.
Fidesz – Hungarian Civic Alliance (Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈfidɛs]; Hungarian: Fidesz – Magyar Polgári Szövetség) is a right-wing populist and national-conservative political party in Hungary led by Viktor Orbán.
always has been
Not exactly. Sure it seems that way for all of us, but we really didn't have the political weight that we have globally until after WWII.
you are right. so at least 100 years.
Ah, imperial years.
BUCKLE UP BUCKAROOS, WE'RE TAKING Y'ALL DOWN WITH US! ~~ohgodImsodepressed~~
What is worse than Biden doing so terrible last night? It's the Democrats insisting he did really well.
I do not think many democrats have insisted that. Biden did considerably better on content, he actually got his facts right whereas Trump lied constantly. But presentation is everything, and Biden failed horribly at that.
Of course, the day after Biden seems fine again at the rally he did. Really unfortunate for him.
I will never forgive the Democrat party for treating our citizens with such contempt. They literally hate us and think we're all mindless idiots, in their feverish desperation to preserve the status-quo with their UberLib presidential candidate that they think they're "above" actual politics, which consists of things like talking to people and listening to people's concerns and creating easy-to-follow narratives with engaging leaders.
Nope. They want line to keep going up and they will force this nightmare on you to keep it going up.
You could have put nearly ANYONE on that state and they would have ran circles around Trump's inept lying. Anyone. Get Bernie, get Newsom, get Kamala even, get fucking Hillary back and get her drunk. Literally ANYONE could have done better against the man most likely to win the presidency and also most likely to end democracy.
The only reason I can imagine they think it's safe to gamble this way is if they don't actually care about the outcome. They don't want change, they want the story to unfold the way they have already written it.
We beat Medicare tho.
You think it’ll be just America?
~~America~~ World - ~~you~~ we are so fucked.
Gay marriage is toast
And sex education, birth control, maybe gynecology in general, and say a big hello to child-brides, enforced prayer in school, and the courts loosening up all those old "restrictive" policies about racial discrimination. Also, industries everywhere will have a solution for dealing with all their toxic waste. Directly into your drinking water.

You're not wrong.
Hi there, European dude here
Can someone nourish my anxiety with a quick summarization of what happened here? Looks like Biden was "a little" off?
EDIT: Nevermind, I read USA Today recap... Fuck...
Democrats really have no way to spin this. We break down Biden’s disastrous debate. It was rough.

What do you mean. They're gonna spin it with either Biden was just sick or he actually had the information while trump lied as expected
It wasn't a debate. It was 2 hours of clip harvesting in which the right got everything they could possibly want while the left got squat diddly
Yep, Trump was just being Trump. He lied every time he opened his mouth, nothing new
Yep, now they will run those lies on every social media timeline and they'll look believable to low information voters

No shit. The left is unrepresented in the USA.
I think they're using those terms in US specific way
Only an idiot would think this ever could have gone differently. I fucking hate the democrats. The fact I have to keep voting for them is really pissing me off.
Biden is simply too old to respond properly to a firehose of lies. That doesn't make him senile, but it does mean they SHOULD have given him a shitload of Adderall.
Oh, wait, he can't have Adderall. It's literally too dangerous to give to people past retirement age!
He need performance enhancing drugs. All of them!
Abortion is slam dunk for dems. Biden instead talked about a migrant murdering a woman and "brothers and sisters" raping women.
And you gotta do an up/down mix. Little stim, little opiate, hint of modafinil and bam!

Sadly I think rambling about nonsense and lies coherently looks a lot better than loosely rambling about actual policies incoherently.
The fact that people think amyone came out actually looking good is the worrying part. We've known since the last election both candidates are a mess.

"Hey now, life goes on... long after the thrill of living is gone." -JM
Holy shit. It wasn’t until I just read those words that I figured out what they mean. I need to start reading more lyrics instead of just making sounds with my mouth
Read the lyrics to Hook, by Blues Traveller. Dude hit the top 40 with a song that was literally saying that we wouldn't listen to the words.
That whole song is a masterpiece.
Good example, there is also Africa by Toto which is just nonsense and yet one of their most famous songs.
Profound words by a wise man.
I don't get it, why can't you just appoint a mid 40's person instead? Wouldn't that be an instant win? Literally anyone could outdo Trump, like what the hell?
"politics"
Next in line are still elderly but they've been spending their whole life building up to this so they aren't going to put some young whippersnapper in charge and undo the years of bribery, corruption and arse-kissing that got them to where they are
The sitting president is the leader of his party. That's the rule. He's a sitting president, he has to get someone else to run, preferably WAY before now, but that looks like ''I'm a bad president'' which usually throws the election to the other party.
In reality, the president isn't running the country solo, you're voting for administrative appointments. We know who Trump will appoint, out of the two I'll stick with the Biden admin.
Do people usually need two hands to chug a bottle of water?
It's a reference to a trump clip where he drinks water with two hands,.
