In before the delusional naive tell us how she’s going to save the day.

Do people in the US not realise there won’t be any more fair elections? A coup is unfolding by white supremacists and you’re all like “here, look, the brown female chick will right the ship”.

Go to the history section of a library before they burn them down.

Came here to say this. Look prople, Trump bragged that is we elected him, it would be the last time we needed to vote. We need to start believing him when he says things. There will be no 2028 election. Look how much he's already broken, and he has 3 more years to finish breaking our democracy.

There will be elections probably, the same way Russia or North Korea do "elections"

Elections in the US are never fair. They’re simply a contest of who gets the smartest lawyers and the most funding.
