When the orange asshole stole another election, but now Im dreading him for a different reason
Whats becoming glaringly apparent is this: he has no guard rail as and everyone around him tells him yes with no guidance or insight. What first scared me was they had all these project 2025 plans ready to go (yes some have been happening but not on the scale we had first feared) but that fear has been replaced.
By what, you ask my fine fellow DUers?
Its now very apparent that the orange asshole and the rest of his room full of dopes ( which includes eloon. Yeah, hes pretty fucking stupid its turning out. And his fan boy followers are noticing), they are blindingly incompetent to the point of turning themselves into a pathetic farce.
They are the idiot drunk at a wedding that tries to do a split or do a flip or anything beyond their basic ability to coordinate the basics of bodily movements and wind up stumbling backwards into the wedding cake.
They will create a fucking mess, everyone will be really pissed, and will be asked to leave.
I fear just by pure gross incompetence they will make our lives miserable and not necessarily because of some grand master plan.
The orange asshole has always made major proclamations with little details. Hes now finding out the hard way, that all the people he banned from his staff and the White House, were all the people that took care of those little details in the past.
All the people around him now are ego maniacs who are lazy and dont want to, you know, actually work. They think by just saying so, something gets done magically
So when he tries to fly immigrants to other nations without consulting with them first; this is just an example of what the next four years will be like
A moron stumbling around with even more toilet paper stuck to his shoe

They don't have to be competent to do damage...they only have to be there.
My liberal bleeding heart is very unhappy.

Justice matters.

(3,978 posts)If we get a few catastrophies on top of one or more disasters our civilization could collapse. Runaway warming could happen as the frozen methane hydrates is near release. We have a 4% risk of a serious Carrigton Event taking out most electric and electronics bith of the next two years, throw in a few bad storms, a big earthquake or a mega volcano and it will be catastrophic. Any of the above plus a pandemic or two on top or a terrorist event or armed conflict would make really bad into total collapse of civilization. Things are very very very serious and little can be done to prep if you're not wealthy.

(103,113 posts)Instead, we get bullshit, dog shit, rat shit, cat shit, batshit, and sheer, utter chaos and cruelty. All this because one party and a handful of criminally insane billionaires got drunk with power, and one sadistic and vindictive "news" network appointed itself the fourth branch of the government through all of its' lackeys infecting Congress, SCOTUS, and our judicial system. Fuck, if only we could turn back time, but too late now.
