It's a legitimate question.
It's horrible watching nearly 250 years of democracy in the US just slip away into a Putin-esque Dictatorship reality. Trump has actually put the thought (or paid the people smart enough to do it) into how to do the deed and he is now on his way.
Yesterday, he HUMILIATED the United States in front of Ukraine and all of the US's European allies by behaving like a man-baby (along with JD Vance) when Vlodomir Zelensky didn't grovel before them at an Oval Office meeting to sign a rare-earth metals deal signing. They basically threw Zelensky out of the White House with their stupid temper tantrum, which was likely nothing short of a stunt to begin with. Whatever it was, it made it VERY clear that the US was now supportive of Russia in the war against Ukraine. Personally, I think that it signaled the Death of our Democratic Republic.
No one that matters will do anything to reprimand Donald Trump for this embarrassment, either. In fact, those within the Republican Party will laud him for his embarrassing behavior simply out of fear for their jobs. They are so afraid that Trump will back a Primary Candidate to oppose them in 2026 that they'll defend whatever he does or wants. The House Republican Caucus should be ashamed of themselves over this.
When did the point of running for office become to have a lifetime career? The point is supposed to be to serve the public...not to bust your ass to keep a full time job. There is supposed to be high candidate and office turn over, otherwise why would we have these elections every two years? And there is NEVER supposed to be a different branch of government that is intimidating enough to control another completely different branch of government.
Donald Trump is a stain on our Precious Democracy and we have to find a way to remove him. There was a great deal of talk from the extreme right about "Civil War" before Biden left office. Maybe it's time for us lefties to consider the same thing. I don't want to live under the control of Authoritarianism. I grew up that way and I know how miserable it is. No...No Thank You. What we had was worth fighting for and yes...I'm willing to fight for it. I'm 60 years old and there isn't much I can do, but I'll certainly do what I can to get back what we've lost. Right now I ashamed to say I'm from the USA. I wish I didn't have to live here anymore. I don't have the money to move, so I have to stay here and be unhappy. That sucks.
