I still do not agree with this person, but I do agree that this will help Trump in the polls.

The duopoly does not care about 'democracy'; they care about pushing owner-class policies and profit.

Key Insights

  1. The assassination attempt inadvertently portrayed Trump as a hero, potentially swaying undecided voters towards him.
  2. Violence, even against a controversial figure like Trump, is counterproductive and can lead to unintended consequences, such as a backlash.
  3. The event may overshadow Trump’s controversial presidency, diverting attention away from his numerous scandals and incompetencies.
  4. The narrative surrounding the event is crucial, as conspiracy theories and blame games could distort the true impact and implications of the assassination attempt.
  5. Urging for activism and donations to prevent a potential Trump victory highlights the urgency and importance of active citizen participation in preserving democracy.
  6. Humorous reference to moving to Canada if Trump wins adds a light-hearted touch to the serious discussion about the potential consequences of a Trump reelection.
  7. Frustration over Democratic disunity and Trump’s unexpected popularity underscores the challenges faced in opposing a divisive and polarizing figure like Trump in the current political landscape.
