Summary
The 2024 election is depicted as a critical juncture for American democracy, likened to a fragile Jenga tower where each removed piece makes the base more unstable.
If re-elected, Trump is expected to follow an “Orbánist” approach, systematically eroding democratic institutions through Project 2025—a plan designed to consolidate power by reshaping government agencies and replacing nonpartisan civil servants with loyalists.
Unlike his chaotic first term, his team now has a deliberate strategy to weaken governance, risking increased polarization, diminished public trust, and potential political instability.
For the last couple of years I’ve quit going to all the little rural communities in SE Michigan I spend money at who are voting for Trump at proportionally high rates. If they don’t want us, they don’t want our money either.
What is the opposition proposing to make it harder for that? Actual policies please
Your response to Trump threatening to burn everything to the ground is to ask anyone who isn’t Trump what they’re going to do to stop it? Not outrage at Trump?
We’ve been living with the consequences of Trump for 8 years. The democrats have been in power for 4 years. I’m not aware of anything the democrats have done to make a dictator less likely. They haven’t cut presidential powers. They haven’t even attempted meaningful healthcare reform. But I’m the one sea lioning… Libs…
Listen, if you can’t tell me, in detail, the plan the bomb squad has to defuse the bomber’s bombs, then I’m just going to have to assume the bomb squad is incompetent and vote for the bomber threatening to blow everyone up.
“Please waste your time and make me look credible by dignifying my utter ridiculousness with a legitimate response, thanks.”
It’s absolutely sealioning at the best.
