@transgrammaractivist @chud @pyrate @Will2Power And I agree with you largely. Things have been in decline for a while, and they're not going to be fixed by Trump. Even if he was Hitler 2.0, the idea that we can undo the economic Gordian knot with the same people in office, all owned by AIPAC, is retarded.

@BowsacNoodle @transgrammaractivist @chud @pyrate @Will2Power We are in that phase where people are seeing this and now discussing it like never before. Change will come. Trump's not the guy who will bring it. Maybe Baron Trump, if he learns anything watching what they are doing to his father and the Trump name.

@FreeinTX @transgrammaractivist @chud @pyrate @Will2Power I sort of think we're past the point where some dynastic family is going to come and "save" things. People get into power mostly through making low level blackmail deals that get progressively harsher as they climb higher, to the point where if you want to push back against anything you'll be burnt. Matt Gaetz is a very recent example of that. I don't believe he was going to do anything speculator and clean house, but just the vague threat of him challenging status quo meant his past appetites come back to haunt him.
