So, he did win and a lot of bad things did happen.
Trump withheld disaster aid from blue states: https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-delayed-disaster-aid-states-governors-criticized-him-1235142056/ https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-de...
Trump already punished Amazon for the Washington Post’s reporting: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/washington-post-endorsement-kamala-harris-trump-bezos-amazon-threat.html https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/washington-post-endo...
And like, if you don’t believe any of that reporting, listen to the man himself? Like he regularly and personally advocates putting his opponents in jail. Either you’re saying he’s blatantly lying about his intentions or your entire defense of him is that he’s an incompetent nincompoop.
The problem is that because it’s probably true that we’re not going to all and up in prison camps on Inauguration Day, you can claim that things aren’t really bad, which is absurd. Like, lots of people have ordinary lives in authoritarian countries. Most of them are not in fact North Korea.
The US becoming far more authoritarian and cronyistic is still really bad.
- nomdep 2y agoSorry, your perception of reality is so far from mine that nothing I could write here would matter. It's like you live in a parallel universe. To me, the US has become basically 1984 the last 10+ years but because of the "left", that has become so radicalized, that now everyone and everything to the right to Stanlin is labelled far-right/nazi/hitler/etc.
