Well that backfired then because I had resigned myself to just white knuckling the next four years and focusing on what I can control and avoiding the news as much as I can.
Go out and talk to randos in public. They dont know what's going on. They dont know who his picks even are. We're fucked.
People keep saying that, but there's a disturbingly strong chance that he'll still be President in February 2029.
I want very much to be wrong about that, but if I was a betting man I'd put money on it.
Theres also a chance he could have a heart attack or stroke and die long before that. Or his mind could completely fail him. He's old. I know there's a lot jokes about it being passed down to his kids but none of them have the support he does.
Everyone eventually dies. It's the great equalizer.
