wtf Florida‽

A question people have been asking for a very long time.

Look at Obama. He could have had a longer productive career if he hadn’t been president as early as he was.

At the same time you constantly hear Amercans complaining that their politicians are too old and too out of touch.

But he knows consequences are actually possible now

Does he really?

Or does he still think that he personally is immune from the consequences of his actions?

The fact that you guys reelected the most blatantly corrupt president you’ve ever had isn’t forgotten by the rest of the world.

It will take a lot of work over a very long time for the USA to remove the stink of Trumpism.

Electing a few better politicians is step one. Let’s see how effective they are able (or how willing) they will be to improve things.

And then let’s see what the American people do in the next 2-3 elections.

We were cautiously optimistic when the Americans elected Biden, and we all know what happened 4 years later.

at least one Canadian doesnt hate us.

We are still taking a “wait and see” approach with the USA.

You guys dumped trumpism once, then brought it back again in an even worse version.

The USA will have to regain our trust, and that takes a lot of work over a very long time.

This is step one on a very long road.

We’re not letting our guard down yet.

This is step one in a very long road.

I hope all these newly elected democrats have the inclination to do the right thing, and the stamina to continue doing it long enough to actually have a positive impact.

It would not take that much red cooperation to make overruling a veto be possible.

Theoretically, yes.

But I’m not optimistic that it will actually happen.

he’d leave America

“Flee”, more like, am I right?

Theoretically, and assuming the secret service is doing their jobs 100% by the book, would they allow a former president to run and hide in a country that might want to use possession of a former US president as leverage against the USA?

so people wouldn’t have to listen to him talk.

Thank you for your service.

It’ll do more than not voting.

The rich can buy electric or newer more efficient Cars. The poor generally drive 20 year old cars

Cars are far from the only thing that is impacted by increasing petroleum prices.

Literally every product in your house (including in your pantry) was moved by a diesel powered truck at some point. Most of it was also moved by a diesel powered train as well. And a petroleum fueled cargo ship.

If they just embraced DSA policies;

Part of the problem is that Americans have been conditioned for generations to be scared of the mere mention of that “S” word.

They’re not going to get any (honest) concessions while Trump is alive and in the white house.

There’s only one country whose citizens assume everyone else is from their country and it’s incredibly annoying

Very annoying.

The real solution is separating church from education entirely.

Everyone gets public school, if you want to send them to an after hours system like CDC (what Catholics have) or something else in addition to normal school, then that shouldn’t be publicly funded in any way.

Absolutely.

Same goes with any private school.

Fully fund the public schools, and if someone wants their kids going to some elitist private school, that’s up to them to pay for themselves.

In a lot of companies those roles overlap.

And TwitterX

And anything else with Musk’s fingerprints on it.

How is this legal??

You aren’t considering the “who is gonna stop us?” counter-arguement.

Are they allowed to?

Who’s gonna stop them?

They’ll have to if they expect the rest of us to trust them going forward.
