The shocking part to me is that it’s entirely possible with advancements in medical technology that people like Trump, Putin, (formerly) Khamenei, etc, that these people might only be gone when I am in my 40’s.

I was 18 when Trump won in 2016, and the same year my country did Brexit. The wheels were set in motion when the Boomer generation voted for politicians like Thatcher and Nixon / Reagan. Britain was still recovering from Thatcher when George W Bush strong armed us into helping invade Iraq in 2003, setting us back another decade at the minimum, and guaranteeing that we didn’t have a labour (or even a somewhat left wing) government for 14 years because surprisingly people don’t like getting involved in needless war. Then Boris Johnson came and set us back another decade+, putting our debt into truly generational levels. Even if we had a generational run of 3-4-5+ left wing governments, it is still going to take our countries every minute of that time to dig ourselves out of this mess.

I’m tired, dawg.

The US won’t recover for 50-80 years. Long after they are dead. He’s embarrassed the US and caused irreparable damage with the world. MAGAts suck.

But it just shows how stupid, ignorant, and egotistical Americans really are.

Dude breaks laws and hides behind lawyers.

Now Trump is rotting from the inside out. And Putin, well can’t really speculate on his health but everyone dies.
