If the USA's ability to destabilise the world reduces with Trump's presidency then I suppose that's a silver lining to the fascist hellscape he's creating
It's nice to see the grip loosen, never thought it would happen this soon. Unfortunately this leaves leaves openings for Russian and Chinese influence where the U.S. hegemony is receding. I'm doubtful it's a net positive, but that's just my American perspective
Yup, Canada saw it as a warning shot, we were down that same path with a guaranteed Conservative victory on our next election, with a candidate who was just a Trump wannabe.
Trump has single handedly opened up the eyes of alot of complacent Canadians. The crazy becomes alot more apparent when we are being attacked over fictional things, then they realize maybe it is all just fictional made up stuff, and the pieces come together.
I disagree, it's a very good thing. USians have had ample time to reckon with their fascist government, but since the price was being paid by minorities and people abroad, not enough of y'all listened or cared. The rot took hold, the violence was turned inward like Malcolm X warned and when the US dies the world will immediately be better for it.
Of course, provided they don't do the ghoulish shit only they and Israel would, nuking us all out of spite.
If the goal is total collapse, I don't have much hope.
At the end of his term, (assuming he doesn't worm his way into getting more than 2) the next administration is just going to pick up the pieces and do their best to keep the current elite in power. :/
The problem is the current elite is the government, the administration. The way things are going, i can't imagine the Trump administration even organizing something towards elections in 4 years.
