1. I fear that trump will break the country so badly that we'll never gain footing again, because........

2. Republican senators are complete toadies, and can't say these horrible nominations are DOA.

3. Those voters who don't follow politics and broke +16 pts for trump aren't paying attention now either. Only folks like us, are watching this shitty circus

If only federal law enforcement had been waiting at the other end of that Marine One ride to arrest trump for inciting an attempted coup, maybe we wouldn't be here now. I agree that the shit show is back and this will be the chaos for the coming years. I was surprised by Matt Gaetz quick withdrawal as well, but I remain skeptical that we've seen the last of him in this administration.

I feel the press has grossly underestimated the destruction we are about to watch once he is inaugurated. I believe the mechanisms are in place to do every single thing project 2025 and agenda 47 call for. U think this country has suffered from a huge case of "it can't happen here." It can and it is. I feel like I'm living a real life, political version of the movie "Don't Look Up."
