The mainstream press failed to accurately describe the hand gesture that Elon Musk made twice at Trump’s Inauguration Day rally, setting a troubling precedent for the second Trump era.

Republicans will never accept another election if a Democrat wins. This is our future, where every election they lose is contested. That is, if we have another election. I think we're heading to a pseudo democracy like Russia, where they can vote but Putin always wins in a landslide.

To be honest, I don't see them allowing a vote to go against them. It is if this shit can hold together without Trump. He's old and doesn't do diet or exercise. He's the linchpin of it.

The heritage Foundation is trying to make Trump play the part of the anti Christ in the book of revelation. They need him there for 7.5 years i think. Im not sure if this includes his first term or not. They might just decide to go ahead with the lake of fire part in 3.5 years.
