I’m afraid that this might actually mark the beginning of it, yuekit. Trump enabled many millions of people and set them on this path of misguided nationalism and deep mistrust of anything that disagrees with trump, including the FBI, Supreme Court, CIA, senate and congress, every mainstream media entity that exists, and of course the entire Democratic Party.
I wish I could be confident that Biden’s first day would mark the end of anything. But these crazies are still yelling “the best is yet to come” and don’t seem deterred in the slightest. In fact, they’re more riled up than ever. It’s gonna be YEARS of this and extreme reactionary rejection and gross demonization of anything that the new administration does. They’re convinced beyond the shadow of a doubt that Biden and Kamala hate this country and will ruin it. As long as Trump lives they will continue. And it will live on beyond his death, I fear.
- Just find it funny that America derailed itself so much over Trump, a con-man who doesn't even hide his grift.PhanLo
- It's mind boggling. Go onto the Fox News facebook page and look at the comments on any article. It's incredibly telling and frightening how misguided they are.monospaced
- I know that it's complicated for you at the moment, but I sincerely hope that all this will calm down a bit and that people will realise Trump's incompetence.D4W33D
- but I understand very well your apprehensions Mono.D4W33D
- I "hope" for the same thing. But this isn't me being apprehensive about anything. I'm describing reality as I see it.monospaced
- Not just a con man, the guy is a reality TV star FFS lol. How did anyone ever take this seriously?yuekit
- I know...D4W33D
- My one hope is that he has pinned his entire existence on being a 'winner'.. tomorrow will make it certain for a lot of his followers that he actually lost.mathinc
- Hopefully, a large portion of them loses interest in him once that reality sets in.mathinc
- Trump was their leader who enabled them to bring the flags out. They always had the flags, Trump just tickled their tiny wee fascist balls.PhanLo
- There are always going to be right-wingers and people with authoritarian tendencies but I also think people are pretty malleable.yuekit
- I remember when American politics was defined by whether you supported or opposed the Iraq War, now you can't find a single person who admits to supporting it.yuekit
- So in that sense having Trump on TV and in the news everyday has had a really corrosive effect. Take him off TV and maybe things can start to improve.yuekit
- His supporters already turned on him. They are on their own trajectory now. It’s sick.monospaced
