Yeah and if the democrats win the next election they will sweep it all under the rug in the name of “national unity” or some other stupid shit.

It’s exactly what the Biden administration did. These guys are all friends behind closed doors and they’re all getting rich together looting the country.

Biden's DOJ prosecuted like 1500 J6er's. They were also prosecuting Trump, until voters re-elected him. You can't prosecute a sitting president. Thank MAGA voters for being traitors. We're in this mess because of Republicans, not Democrats.

You’re in this mess because the US has one of the most apathetic populations in the world. Americans are bred to get on their knees and blindly obey anyone with money.

Today is the result of decades of steady decline not 1 president or political party.

True. So many of our citizens don't even know how their own government works. Only around 30% of eligible voters vote during the midterms, and Congress is how laws are written and passed. The president has (or should have now with Trump) much less power comparatively. It doesn't help that our system was set up to override the will of the people with the electoral college, and racism is used to get people to vote against their own interests. I wish more young people would get involved. Millennials finally outnumber boomers.
