He does something illegal on a practically daily basis and everyone just kisses his ass. Now I guess he can just continue on and conquer the whole world and kidnap world leaders. Why doesn’t anyone stand up to this asshole?

World Leaders/Other Countries : Mostly cowed by the US military and money. Those that aren’t are mostly happy to watch the US self immolate.
Tech Leaders: Combination of either agreeing with him or willing to go along so he doesn’t turn on their companies.
Democrats: Don’t have control of any part of any branch of the federal government, tend to play by the rules and don’t know how to handle someone who doesn’t.
Liberals ( assuming colloquial US definition) : Have been protesting, voting, and otherwise opposing him, but haven’t reached critical mass to convince Republican politicians to stop supporting trump.
They have an unwavering devotion to a terminally flawed system.
The system has been rewarding them handsomely so far, but getting votes AND corporate money is a thin rope to walk on, and Trump has grabbed it mostly for himself and now has both.
The Democratic party, as it has existed until now, is dead.
The “popular” Dems (Bernie, AOC, Mandani, etc) need to jump ship and create a true “fuck the rich” party. They’ll win.
Where I live most liberals are too busy thought-policing each other and trying to ‘out’ eat other as closeting trump supporters to do anything effectively. They are scared of their own shadows.
I used to be part of a few community orgs, I left last year because I was so done with people telling me how if I’m not foaming at the mouth angry at working-class white people and virtue signalling constantly about how pure I am, then I’m a nazi. It was so petty to the point I got screamed at for wearing a trucker hat that I was secretly a Trump supporter, because ONLY TRUMP SUPPORTERS WEAR HATS. Shit was utterly insane.
It’s hard to organize and get together with people when they won’t accept your support/efforts if its anything less than their ideal.
