    I quit. American politics are a circus sideshow full of dancing turds. At this point, let it burn. The side that I vote for won’t even stand up against this shit, so what good is my vote now?

    Just a bunch of rich assholes doing whatever they want.

      That’s why the American people have to do it themselves. Take to the streets. The system has failed you. No one will save you but yourselves.

      Come to Europe. We got ice cream and free healthcare. Also you don’t need a gun to protect yourself when going out for a walk.

        I think those of us who want to leave cant…

        I mean I KNOW I’m fucked, I’d save my wife…but who would accept us? Likely not one single European nation.

          All of them will if you have a million in the bank… If not then its a long hard road.

              Don’t need to be exactly rich.

              What are the obstacles to taking this step? Is it only a financial matter? What is you and your wife’s profession? You can pm me if you want to.

            That’s not exactly true. There are countries who welcome you if you have like some useful skills.

        I’m just so disappointed in the fact that there are so many people in this country that actually voted for this shit. How can people sell themselves out like that, just to be able to say, “I owned the libs loool”

        I don’t even know what to think anymore.

          Cmon, they cheated. We all know it. Even they know it. And by not addressing it and shining a light on it, Democrats are INVITING them to do it again in 2026 and 2028. In 2028, HitlerPig will win his unConstitutional reelection with 98% of the vote, and use that “overwhelming popularity” to justify ignoring the Constitutional prohibition against a third term.
