The truth is this didn’t begin in the past 3-4 months or so, although the speed of the chaos etc. has been different… it began in 2015 or so when this lunatic was accepted as a candidate and eventually put in power with the help of the media… and then nothing he did was ever properly challenged and addressed, and then the gov failed to put a stop to it all by stopping him from running again.

His murder of millions with covid has never even been addressed.

Until people start talking about him realistically I don’t see a political way out of this yet. The only hope is enough R and supporters turn against him and d win the house etc.

No one will stop him. How many court orders/ verdicts against him and doge etc. have we seen so far, and how many were ignored and not enforced?

Not 2015. Stop focusing on Trump and look at his support system: it goes much farther back JHB May 2025 #15

Yes I am aware it goes farther back- I am talking about the recent events that caused it Meowmee May 2025 #20

Fine. Revise my wording to "Don't" rather than the damand-y-sounding "Stop". JHB May 2025 #21
