We are passed this point. This is obsolete thinking that will lead to subjugation and/or death. The right is explicitly ok with and trying to do this to dissidents. They arent going to have some epiphany where they realize they arent ok with this. They voted for this. They want this, and its time we realize whats happening and confront the brutal reality of it, because its only going to get worse from here.

Oh wow its that thing people were warning would happen for years if Trump got re-elected, how surprising.

You cant explain things like this to conservatives anymore. They only believe Trump. You can give them proper, non-partisan sources that plainly explain how tariffs work. Videos. Books. Etc. it doesnt matter, we are firmly in a post-truth society now and they have been thoroughly brainwashed to believe whatever Trump says, and never trust any source that goes against what he says because those sources are obviously corrupt, have an agenda, are part of the deep state etc.

Whats sad is this is a pretty normal phenomenon at this point. Happened many times during Trump 1st term; Trump does something very stupid/indefensible, conservative sub panics for a day, dissent is apparent but being frantically managed by the mods, and by the next day new talking points are rolled out, everyone falls in line, and its back to memes and trashing the left.

Its hard to be sure. Trump is very ignorant on many things, but he also is totally willing to feign ignorance to push a narrative. I have a really hard time believing that at this stage in his life and political career, he really doesnt understand trade deficits or how tariffs work. I think rather, he knows many Americans dont understand it, and its just convenient language to use in place of ulterior motives. One thing Trump does understand is the importance of a narrative. If he wants to do X for some shitty, self-serving Z reason, he will give Y reason instead. Y may have nothing to do with X, Y might be a complete made up lie, but he will keep saying Y on repeat, over and over. Fox News will gleefully repeat Y, as will the entire conservative new media apparatus like podcasters and surely Joe Rogan will bring on guests to talk about Y, while he crafts some viral moment where hes just blown away that no one ever thought about Y and why dont the left care about Y and just let Trump do X? You can apply this over and over again to his entire presidency for the next 4 years and possibly beyond.

Sadly a lot of people are VERY proud of what theyve done here. Belligerently and in-your-face kind of proud. And if things get bad they will be spoonfed who to blame. Partisan and foreign propaganda has done untold damage to us in the US. Hope outsiders take heed and fight back before similar forces succeed in dismantling your democracies as well, as it wont stop here. Apologies from the US, we have a lot of work to do to sort our shit out.

Many of us were convinced 2024 would be the year Trump fled the country. Look where we are now. This is the timeline where once Trump finally dies from one too many hamberders, he will have already consolidated enough power for Musk to take over as president without much resistance from the government.

Exactly this. Signing over the minerals would just make Trumps scam even easier and more profitable. He would have feigned support for a short time until he found some other reason, or some other resource to extort Ukraine for. Trump couldnt possibly be any more transparently in the tank for Putin and adversarial to all of our allies. Any who capitulate to Trump are just showing him they are easy targets in the future when he decides he wants more, and he will.

Would it even matter? This moron could be sending dick pics to Putin and nothing would change. Nothing matters anymore.

Dont leave out the folks too lazy or stupid to bother voting at all. They also own this.
