Will this country survive 4 years of this? (Poll)

[orangecrush]

My view is no, we will not survive 4 years of this.

And if those in power know that this is correct, how are they able to continue pretending this is normal, and acting like this is normal politics with "strongly worded letters", etc .?

1. In between.

I think we will ultimately survive, but I think it's going to be painful and ugly while we get through it.

8. My hope

Is that when the impact of collapsing the economy and eliminating those parts of the federal government corporate America needs for research, etc. the GOP will be forced to put the brakes on the orange cancer

12. it's a crap shoot

the entire repuke party seems very reluctant to put America or WE THE PEOPLE first..........

13. Trump is doing GOP Congress dirtywork

If any congressional GOP member had done these things, most likely they would be out on their ass in the next election.

The key seems to be getting voters to hold the GOP Congress accountable for Trump's actions, which is why Dems holding town halls in red districts when THE GOP won't is, imo, a great idea.

14. he's doing the bidding of the Project 2025 people too

4. Agreed

[LostOne4Ever]

15. Exactly what I was thinking

A “Yes, but just barely and after a lot of pain” option would be appreciated.

2. Sanity prevails over demented bluster.

It just takes time.

[Celerity]

5. Too few options.

[J_William_Ryan]

6. "Too few options."

Agreed.

The country will ‘survive’ but as what, exactly – likely with a weakened democracy and our democratic institutions undermined and vulnerable to another Trump.

Indeed, Trump will establish executive branch precedent, a template for the next Republican president to follow: how to abuse power, ignore the courts, and defy the rule of law with impunity – how to get away with being an authoritarian despot and dictator.

7. It truly depends on We the People to lead the way

9. I have no clue really

I am wondering if I am going to survive 4 more years of this insanity etc.

[orangecrush]

10. I have started taking long breaks

In my news consumption.

My way of avoiding the fire hose of bullshit.

[Meowmee]

11. Good idea... I don't watch it on tv hardly at all anymore

But still read online and come here too much. I need to cut down on that to lower my stress etc.

[Blasphemer]

16. No way the country can survive 4 years but he won't last that long. nt

17. define "survive"

We'll all die? We won't all die.

The nation will dissolve? No, America will not dissolve.

We'll no longer be a 2-party Democracy? That's possible.
