Unless GOP Congressmen grow a spine at the very last second, then Europe absolutely won't because they're going to lose well over 700 Billion USD worth of NATO military support. Thats like 2/3rds of defence spending for all of Europe POOF gone forever.

I feel like test is the wrong word.

The real answer is the kind of party that a majority of voters chose a rapist felon over. I don't even want to help them, anymore, I started learning German again just in case I feel like leaving.

Theres two main reasons not to stop it from happening:

  1. It would make the DNC as bad as the GOP

  2. The people don't really deserve more help, tbh.

From the article:

"It's my responsibility to make sure this tyrannical despot assumes power," Harris told the crowd of supporters after officially conceding the race. "Though he will end freedom itself in this country, imprison anyone who disagrees with him, systematically murder all women, and go door to door kicking everyone's dogs, I promise to make sure there is a peaceful transition of power."

The media hailed Harris's brilliance and the leadership she displayed while conceding to a man who is literally Hitler.

The bar probably does go lower than you think for humanity, but yeah we might be approaching all new lows.

Yeah, realistically he'll just do what Obama did and act like a good teacher giving Trump the details needed to do whatever needs to be done in emergencies. Trump, of course, will soak it all up like a metal bar: not at all.

My people are them. We're our own enemy. Idk how you could possibly fail to see how life is in the USA, to instead think it is like isolated minority sects or a bunch of fantasy guilds or some wack shit like that.

You cannot tell the ones deserving to die from the ignorant buffoons, or even allies. There is no effective training to fight "the other ones". There is no preemptive strike in good conscience. There is no guarantee of any violence on American shores unless we create it ourselves. More and more and more people will go hungry and cold in the streets for decades and it might still never devolve to the point of "death squads".

So speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.

Our socioeconomic situation almost 20 years ago isn't the same as it is now. The Rich are much richer now than then, the middle class existed in much greater numbers, Russia and China weren't (as much) actively campaigning on the whole US Population's social media, and fossil fuel companies weren't at risk of being phased out.

Public invitation to be my friend: I'd like to join somebody's online game server. I don't care too much what game it is. I can do MMOs. Talk more on your preferred platform?

EDIT: I can host, too

I just assumed that started as a reactionary movement responding to South Park.

I'm not really underestimating it, it's clearly there and a very huge problem, but if Harris was the candidate offering to cut taxes for the rich and Trump was the candidate threatening to change half of all US Cars to electric in 10 years, then the outcome would be opposite to what it was.
