Real Talk: What are the actual real-life chances that Trump is improving and/or that he WON’T die from COVID or COVID-related complications, as of right now?

There is literally no chance whatsoever that he will die from this. None. Only a total moron would believe otherwise. I stake my entire reputation on not dying from Covid-19. May God strike me down if I am wrong about this!

What do these people do if Trump loses in November? Do they throw all these knickknacks, flags, and statues and throw them in the trash because it's embarrassing to have backed the loser? If he wins I can see them still trotting this poo poo out in 2023 but what do they do if Biden wins?

They'll retreat into their conspiracy theory facebook bubbles and occasionally hold rallies of maybe 20 people because a 18yo pretending to be Q told them Lincoln's gold was hidden under his statue in DC and Trump needs it to fund his war against the deep state.

There's this insane theory bubbling around in my head that what we're all experiencing right now is in fact two different but compatible universes interacting with each other. They perceive a universe where Trump really is a handsome and capable leader fighting demonic forces while we perceive the one where he's a hideous moron. Think about it; it's the only thing that explains it.

e/n incoming

My wife immigrated to the United States from China in 2011 on a K1 visa. We've had two children, she became a citizen in 2016, and in the last 6 months, she's had a political awakening - anything that affects China negatively, she supports. She is really upset about communism and thinks that President Trump is the best foil for against China.

I worked on the Obama campaign in 2008, and I have been a soft liberal my whole life.

I've spent the last month and the next month (likely) living in the garage because I won't commit to voting for the President (in Tennessee of all fuckin places).

If Biden wins, I can't imagine the fallout or divorce in our family.

Anyway that's my life story, thanks for reading.

Was her mean, child-like stupidity part of what attracted you to her in the first place?

People that put stickers on other people's cars should be killed. No trial, no jury, straight to execution. I'd give anything to catch someone putting a sticker on my car. It'd be worth having a sticker put on my car just so I could've caught them doing it.

I think people really need to temper their expectations about what a post-Trump America will be like. Literally nobody in power has any plans to fix any of the deep seated social or institutional issues that led to his election and the general state of protracted collapse the nation is in. I agree though, it will be nice to see him eat crow. Assuming he loses. Which isn't a given.

I think people have already tempered their expectations on that front and many are voting for Biden while holding their noses and saying "At least he's not Trump."

In fact, I think the only people who claim it's going to be anything more than "not Trump" are Trump and his cheerleaders who say that Biden is left of Bernie and will kill God, replace him with AOC, and force all of our children to be transsexual socialists with free college.

I hope so, but there was one person upthread saying "we vote Biden now so we can vote for AOC later" who is just setting themselves up for disappointment.

What's the deal with his supporters?

Like if trump was my coworker or boss and I listened to him speak I'd be extremely skeptical of his ability to do a good job. He doesn't seem competent. At all. Who is it that looks at him and hears him speak and thinks "wow that guy sure knows his poo poo"?
It it some like mass hysteria dunning kruger kind of interaction?

I'm not trying to circlejerk and sniff our own farts here believe me I'm a loving moron but I at least have a baseline of competency when I get to know people.

This is a shitpost thread so shame on me for real posting but the answer is way more complex and insidious than "they're stupid racists". Which they are, but there's are deeper reasons that they are. They intuitively know that they're getting screwed over by life and the society they live in but they haven't been given the tools (and there's has been a terrifying amount wealth and power put it into denying them the tools) to accurately assess who's been loving them and why.

Ah gently caress it I can't be bothered writing all this out. Plenty of smarter people than me have already put up way better explanations for why we get demagogues.

I try to feel compassion for them whenever I can because when you see a bunch of Trump supporters you see a bunch of fat, old, ugly, miserable people, and I guarantee you they see exactly the same thing when they look in a mirror. The whole point of a two party system is to get you to focus your blame and anger at the other victims of the people who actually cause all of the damage.
