If you were under the illusion that Trump is going to improve the situation for the Palestinians in any way, I have a bridge to sell you…

Inconsistency is the only thing Trump can be counted on to do reliably.
should keep the rest of the world entrained.
Sorry, but you guys stopped being fun to watch a while ago.
It’s now gone well beyond train-wreck levels of horrified “can’t look away” viewing.
Now we can’t even band together against a pandemic disease that is obviously killing people right in front of us (as opposed to the less visible to the average person ozone hole), and we sure as hell won’t be able to move against climate change in any uniformed way before its much too late (as we can already see).
Now they’re seeing the ideas outlined in there and probably freaking out.
As they should be.
Hopefully they’ll wake up enough by mid-terms to vote for some level of damage control.
Why isn’t that benefitting the working class? These are real questions. Trump has all the wrong answers
The existance of people like Trump and Musk are the answer.
These orgs could use your donations now more than ever.
As well as your volunteer time
Not really sure what more could be done to inform people of the dangers of Project 2025
Most people werent aware of it.
And of those who had heard the name, some number of people assumed it was nothing more than yet another impotent rage document from some fringe group that was so outrageous as to be beyond the possibility of actually doing.
Of all the bullshit that Trump yelled about, I think actual death squads is relatively low on the list of things he would actually be able to accomplish.
For the first year or so he will be too focused on trying to punish the justice system that was so “unfair” to him.
I very much doubt we’ve seen the last attempt on his life.
And it’s just as likely to come from a disillusioned historically republican as from someone more to the left.
The sentencing happens before he has any power.
Plus, any state charges can’t be pardoned by a president.
I can’t be bothered to worry about the climate 100 years from now
I can because I care about my kids and potential grandchildren.
we’re going to be attacking (many more) Americans 100 days from now
I also have family members who will be impacted directly by that.
I can be concerned about stopping both of those negative outcomes. (And would be even if it didn’t directly impact my family)
We can hope not to repeat the plague, but with Trump empowering anti-vaxxers, even that can’t be taken for granted.
do you guys not listen to what Trump says?
Yes that was one of the many outrageous claims he made.
Who knows which things he will actually try to do, let alone what he’ll succeed at doing.
Even with the house, senate and supreme court tilted right, I don’t see them succeeding on abolishing elections.
What’s the counter-argument in favor of genocide?
Thw arguement is the party that has been calling for a cease fire since the start if the conflict versus the one that will actively encourage Netanyahu.
Past elections are on Wikipedia. And this one will take a while to pull the numbers together, but it’ll be added in the coming months.
Compulsory but severely underfunded.
And many of the more right wing religious people lean towards homeschooling, in which they can tailor to what they want their kids to learn (and more damaging) what they don’t want their kids to learn about.
That reminds me, isn’t his sentencing coming up in a couple of weeks?
At some point it becomes impossible to tell what is something Trump really believes and might actually do versus what is just blowing smoke, blatant lying, a thing that contradicts another thing he said, or something he forgot he said.
Assuming he doesn’t change the rules and appoint himself president forever, then the limit is 2 terms, consecutive or not.
Even if a person started their presidential mandate partway through a 4 year cycle (as happened after Nixon stepped down and after Kennedy was shot), it’s still 2 terms, not necessarily 8 years.
If Trump dies in the next 4 years, Vance could serve out the current term and would only be eligible to become president for one additional term.
