Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! 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.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

He could just as well have ended this statement with "Sieg Heil", hooooold the front door, what is happening!? (It's metaphorical y'all, I know what's happening I just can't believe it 😔)
When we finally claw our way out of this mess it's going to take so long to rebuild
well that's kind of the point isn't it? every time the Republicans get in they do so much damage that it can't possibly be done in the inevitable swing back to the left that they create and then by the time they get back in because of all the reactionaries they just do more damage
kind of the end result of a two-party system if you think about it
The D's aren't going to fix anything. I know this because they didn't fix anything the last time. Its a big tent that encompasses everyone left of "don't hunt LBTQ for sport" and like, 2/3 of those people don't even believe in that strongly enough to not ally with the same Silicon Valley brownshirt dipshits that the fascists do. They didn't enshrine Roe. They couldn't even shore up enough support to prevent Trump from running again in spite of the utter insanity of his first term and the fucking shit he campaigned on this last time.
And if you disagree, just remember, they lost twice to Trump. The second time they had every single advantage; Project 2025, Biden guiding the pandemic recovery. They couldn't not deep throat natanyahu long enough not to lose Dearborn and Miami, even though the other side is literally going to throw them into Concentration camps, and they couldn't help themselves but to parade around literal war criminal Liz Cheney.
I'm not being a doomer. We have two parties in this country. Fascists and Fundraisers. We have to understand this. The next four years will be filled with genocide; migrants are being send to Gitmo already. The RFK is talking about rounding up the disabled. DEI is just another euphemism for the N word, so at best we are a few months out from someone saying that they should round up DEI or "woke" or whatever. And the Dems will go with it, up until they get night of Long Knives themselves (with a few exceptions, who will be arrested earlier.) I know this because they sure haven't done shit as of yet. Except for reach across the isle and confirm some utterly unqualified Q anon pilled cabinet choices, and of course, yelling about how this is all illegal, like Eddard Stark, with his dick flapping in the breeze.
The system is working as intended and must be destroyed.
I mean yeah, Dems have complacent leadership but they are definitely the much better of two bad options.
My point is even if you had ideal leadership, inevitably discontent of uncontrollable externalities would cause a tick-tock cycle between the two parties as reactionaries are just part of the human condition and the party willing to play dirty will always come out on top in a two party system.
I can agree with that. "As intended" and so on
Is that after a civil war? The fractured states of america will have to try to make a new union, while contending with foreign interests steering things to their benefit. Who knows what the result will be.
At what point do we consider this a coup, and what action is there to take?
Edit: A word
I can think of one action, but suggesting it has gotten me banned from several social media platforms.
The day he took office and signed a ridiculous number of overreaching EOs
Making room for his swamp.
"He accused Biden of politicizing the DOJ."
I know projection is this dude's whole thing, but to say that while literally in the act of politicizing it is next-level clownery.
Installing own clowns to nod to his bullshit. That's not cleaning, that's installing corruption.
Straight outta the Project 2025 playbook
lol.. cleans house, only to shit in the pool. Classic trump.
