Trump was supposed to be in prison. instead he's back in the white house and TIME person of the year. There's no hope for humanity.

These nikkas on here are going to complain for the next 4 years. The majority of yall have been broke all your adult lives... nothing is going to be different, no matter who is in office. YOUR LIFE IS BASED ON YOUR DECISIONS

Broke people tend to depend on social safety nets, the same safety nets that will likely be targets for budget cuts which suggests that something will be different.

You do realize Trump talked out the side of his ass for 4 years last time and didn't do half the shyt he said he was gonna do, right? This is just another excuse for us to play victim, as usual...

You can go from broke to living on the streets. It can always get worse. Especially for people who rely on gov programs.

You don’t see a difference between this time around and last time? No diff at all? He’s talking out his ass for some stuff but he now has the power to do more and he has surrounded himself with non political people unlike last time. Should be worried about all the billionaires in the white house.

You CAN, but again, your life is based on your decisions. If you think all hell is about to break loose then learn a new job skill ASAP. You can learn anything, including rocket science, if you want to...

No, I don't. I dont base my life on who is in office. Me and mine will always be straight because we've put in the work to make sure we don't fold, even if the country folds

I LIVE IN A CARDBOARD BOX!
Nothing still beats the moment when I won TIME’s Person of the Year in 2006.

My family & friends couldn’t believe it when I told them, they’re still writing into the TIME and contesting this result to this very day.

It has more to do with racism than pure stupidity IMO.

White America REALLY didn't like having a black president and we're still seeing the backlash from that. Combine that with fears about becoming the minority and the right wing media and you have a population that will knowingly vote for someone they know is bad just to screw over the people they hate.

People don't understand that to white America, Obama was all of their most hated things rolled up into one.

A black man
A university educated elite
Raised by a single mother
Son of an immigrant
Foreign name with Arabic middle name.

That shyt infuriated them and they got ptsd when they saw kamala Harris who was the same thing on top of being a literal coastal elite and a woman.

To them she represented a loss of prestige. It didn't matter what she said because to them it was all lies and her real plan would be to spend their tax money propping up immigrants(who in their mind contribute nothing to society and are quickly outnumbering whites), sexual minorities, black people, and people who live off government welfare. They thought she'd just continue to give resources to people who aren't them and continue to make life easier for the people they are competing with.

Trump centered his campaign around the dominant group(white men) the messages focused on their anxieties around race(they're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats) and their anxieties around gender(she's for they/them, he's for you).

And he tapped into nostalgia( there weren't any wars when I was president. Groceries didn't cost as much as they do now when I was president. Was your life worse or better?) And if you were a white person that was a solid appeal because life for whites was not worse when he was president.

Nevermind that the tariffs and aggression towards China that HE STARTED led to the inflation. Never mind the fact that he deregulated things so these megacorps could charge more. None of that mattered to them because of their stupidity and anxiety. All they thought was "oh fukk, not again" when they saw kamala.

Above the fray.

Heard something as a kid, and witnessed it as an adult. In America, middle class folks are a couple of paychecks away from not being middle class. Especially true for Black people.

Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade was one of the moments that called a bluff on "nothing is going to be different, no matter who is in office". It happened because of a set of cirumstances. Including the result of the 2016 presidential election.

Elections, national and local, have consequences and effects on people's lives.

Now, people will adjust to those changes and effects, like they always have. But Trump and company are openly trying to turn back the clock/calendar and removing many of the levers for advancement that previous generations fought and bled for.

The Wrong Side of the Tracks
Him and his team is trying to find ways around the 14th amendment when it comes to immigration (trying to get rid of birth right citizens)
Yeah, but that's an entirely different Amendment that has no bearing on Presidential term-limits. Wouldn't surprise me if he tried, but don't think it'd go anywhere.​
