What devil has this guy made a deal with? No matter how stupid, obnoxious or abrasive he is, people worship him. He constantly screws himself over and then before he has to face serious consequences he trips on a rock and somehow everything's alright again for him. At this point he literally can shoot someone on 6th Avenue and get away of it. I think Trump is solid evidence that we're living in a simulation and somebody is fucking with us, because life just doesn't work the way it works for him. Somebody's thumb is on the scale.
The day after he was convicted on his 30+ felonies, he had the biggest donation day of any politician in US history, probably Human history. Jeff Bezos prevented any news outlet he owned of endorsing Harris, Elon Musk Did a million dollar raffle for Trump voters. They DO NOT WANT to pay taxes, and they DO NOT want to pay people who make their money. That's all this has ever been, and they know Trump would fuck his mothers corpse for a nickle and will absolutely shift the tax burden to the poor and middle class as hard as he can, and he has a majority in the legislature, and full stop OWNS the most extreme and corrupt Supreme Court we've ever seen, and he will stack it even higher this term. It is a GREAT time to be a corrupt politician in America, no one is going to taste a single consequence for this fuckery.
Yeah I know he got help from various billionaires, but Mr. and Mrs. Middle America ignored stuff that goes against their own character. Most people don't associate with anybody who's on trial for multiple felonies. They disapprove of guys who cheat on their wives. They would frown on a grown man saying "grab 'em by the pussy." Trump is not a person decent churchgoing Americans normally idolize - let alone pastors and ministers. He has an uncanny charm with these people, which I chalk up to his con man ability. But even a con man loses his audience when he drops pretense and acts like an asshole. The Orange Sack of Shit seems unnaturally immune to that.
The Supreme Court knows he can't be elected again and they already have their seats, they don't owe him anything anymore
He cut a Faustian Bargain with the soul of America. And like Faust, he gets to spend his days capering and clowning about his social superiors, making unholy mischief in a kingdom that is itself revealed to be terminally corrupt and wholely damned.
Trump took the Objectivist philosophy that's guided this country for a generation and embodied it. He is Reaganism in its manifest state. Just a guy entirely out for himself who has convinced 71M other people to do the same.
What's more concerning is that millions more people saw it and didn't bother to stop him.

Jokes aside, he was heavily supported by Russia and Israel who do have quite some influence through social media
He can't be the anti-christ because his political power lasted longer than 3 and a half years
Dw I really don't take this stuff serious (not religious)
It's a fun read though
But hey you can argue he's getting 3.5 years twice now (4 minus lame duck twice)
Yes but he's only supposed to get ONE 3.5 years
Meaning he's no the anti-Christ...
That thumb has a name, Putin
Putin didn't GAF about Donald Trump until he became useful enough. By that time the Orange Sack of Shit had already been stiffing creditors and skirting the law for decades, somehow living a life of abject luxury anyway, when if nature had taken its usual course he would have been a bankrupt nobody hustling $10 bar bets.
Life works differently for the haves than it does for the have-nots. This has been pretty much a constant in human societies...
