This is going to play out like 2016. The Left are to make every little thing. He does into the biggest baddest thing of all time. The world didn’t end in 2016, so why will it end now?
No one is expecting “world to end”. It’s just going to get somewhat shittier whereas it could have gotten better or at least stayed the same. Also for some minorities it’s going to get a lot shittier.
And for Ukraine and Gaza. So all those folks saying Kamala didn’t have a hard enough stance should be thrilled right now.
They wouldn’t be thrilled, either way. I hope the ones blindly supporting the Democrats pandering to the right are thrilled, instead.
Project 2025, mostly. That and the permanently red Supreme Court composed of partisans.
Historically that’s not necessarily the case. Authoritarians who come to power via somewhat democratic means in their first terms to be much more mild relative to subsequent terms where they solidify their hold on institutions.
One notable example would be Putin’s first term (which is largely seen to be a fair win) or even when Medvedev was ordered to warm the seat. It always only gets worse, at least from historical examples.
The bigger question is whether the US opposition has any willingness to fight, which I don’t believe to be the case.
I wish we weren’t about to find out.
