    Not much will change, this guy has been president before, he spend more time on the golf course then in the oval office.

    I expect lots of embarrassing speeches and truths/tweets, but other then that the purple party autocrats will be running the country like they always do.

      When he won before, he was outside the Republican party establishment and just put his own unprepared cronies in charge.

      He’s also not going to even try to do half the things he said because he’s a pathological liar

        He doesn’t have to. He doesn’t have to do much. Though since he now has unfettered opportunity, I think he will. The groundwork is laid for theocrats to run everything down to the dark confines of the womb.

      Last time he was in office housing assistance programs were gutted so that will most likely change

      Right now, this is what I am telling myself. Let’s just hope he is only as bad as he was the first go around, and not as bad as he has been claiming he will be on the campaign trail. He is the lyingest sack of shit to ever hold office. Let’s cross our fingers he was lying about most of the shit he promised his cult.

      Yes, there’s an awful lot of hysteria about Trump, when in reality he’s just a shit president.

        There is some panicking prompted by the horrible things he’s promised to do but probably can’t, but:

        -He got Roe v. Wade overturned, stripping rights from Americans while also being responsible for a 3% increase in infant mortality in the US, the first significant increase in decades

        -about as many people died of COVID as voted for Jill Stein, and while Trump isn’t responsible for all their deaths he significantly worsened the problem.

        So I’d say beyond shit

        yeah, they are just being hysterical, it is not as if he publicly encouraged and condoned terrorism, right, comrade?
