IMO Trump should win and accelerate the fall of the US. It’s time to rip the plaster off the failed experiment
A Trump 2.0 would set out to settle scores and would waste no time in trashing the constitution, filling his people everywhere and subverting the law. If you’re a woman, minority, poor, concerned about the climate or someone in Eastern Europe fearful of their future be very afraid. Essentially this contest is democracy v fascism.
True but it also might mean that the states eventually become independent. “Democracy” is dead in the water around the world.
At what cost though? Putin will potentially ride roughshod across Europe with Trump’s tongue rammed so far up his arse. His goal as always been to resetablish the USSR, and he will feel that with that dickhead at the helm, nothing will stop him.
As a country we are going to have to spend billions on defence like nothing we’ve seen since 1939.
It will be a massive step backwards for the entire planet.
All so the US can be truly ‘independent’?
No thanks.
This is essential reading
Exactly… the timing is awful too, precisely when the world needs to be coming together to face the climate emergency
Interesting. I need a new commute book so will give that a go. Many thanks!
Was going to say that also approx £40 is the most I have ever spent on a record. Luckily for me it’s been banned from sale, which would make it a under the counter job?  I don’t get this, so why?

My discogs buys were less than 10 before I started digging again 2 years ago.
Can’t think why that’s banned from sale, weird.
Like every president or PM . they never ‘run their own baths’ do they… Bath time is always predetermined by those unseen. Meat Puppets all of them.
Politics is horrid show,  forced. upon.
True, but they usually put a stooge up who looks like he/she would be capable of running a government, not one who looks like they should be nodding off whilst watching Countdown with a bag of Werthers on their lap.
That collapse looks like he couldn’t even keep a Werthers in his mouth!
Goon squad played the trump card and this is all they got left.
And loads of war.
Curtains for America.
It’s not banned, there’s just not any up for sale atm.
Indeed. Also means the next one will likely be the priciest yet…
it’s the good people trapped in the bad states that i would worry about. if i could get all the good folks out of florida and all the bad folks in, this might appeal.
even then, bad people have good kids all the time, and i hate the idea of kids being stuck in fucked up states . so yeah, this full “states rights” thing will never work. there are plenty of people trapped in areas that suck ass and are only getting worse, and are locked in due to poverty, dependency, lack of opportunity, etc.
i’ve got a relatively small but growing list of places i won’t travel to for work or pleasure - and i’m a tall white guy. my kid is non-binary, and would be unsafe in a lot of places, even with me.
Out of interest what states are on your list?
People who say “if you know you know”. Even worse, using the acronym IYKYk. Cunts all.
texas, oklahoma and florida at the top of the list.
i’ve met some good people from texas, but some of the absolute worst people i’ve ever had to deal with in my life were from texas, loud and proud. my wife used to go to some art community type stuff in austin and marfa, and she says it’s ok, but from what i can tell the bad outweighs the good in every possible way, for me.
The US is so difficult to generalize though. Like I live in New Hampshire and Exeter, Portsmouth, etc are great but then you go 30 minutes north to Manchester and shit starts going south but then you drive north of there and you get to Loon and it’s pretty fantastic as far people experiences go.
Only place I’ve ever truly felt was a bit fucked was Indiana. Seemed off.
