    Trump is a symptom of the problem not the problem itself. There is no trust that should be given to the US until it gets its shit, including education, well in order first.

    I think a lot of U.S. politicians (as well as many civilians, frankly) are under the delusion that once Trump is out of office things will ‘return to normal’. That may have been true after his first term, but the landscape has shifted seismically since then. Thanks to MAGA, in a single year the U.S. has shit the bed in virtually every category of former dominance, and has effectively ceded its leadership position on the world stage. Trust is gone, alliances have been broken, and if Newsom et al. really believe things will be ‘business as usual’ ever again, their delusion is showing.

    He might be gone in three years. But the problems that let him get to the Whitehouse twice will not. Rather than rehash a bunch of points, I direct any Americans to this column by a Canadian writer: We will never trust you again

    Way too long and he has said time and again that he’s not going anywhere. That means he will need to be forced out of office. And he is going to wreck up the place all along the way. Kick him the fuck to the curb and send the goons after him. He belongs in a deep dark cell awaiting his execution, not “leading” the country.

    Good bet, he will be dead in three years. But if maga fascism is out in three years remains to be seen.

    That’s 3 more years of building European sovereignty, bud. Might fuck around year 4-5 and let Canada join the EU.
