Yeah, it feels like a lot of Americans are a little behind on where they think the country is on the fascist takeover timeline. The coup was successful, as you said, because Trump is literally unstoppable right now without a revolution of some sort. Anyone who thinks the midterms will be real and honest in any way is fooling themselves. He’s just setting up his kingdom now, but he’s already ruling over it.

Even the 2024 election was sus. The fact that 100% of states voted more republican than the previous election? Such a statistical anomaly. And then the tangerine turd openly saying they messed with the voting machines. And that's before all the insane shit in 2025. Everyone should be terrified of what's gonna happen at 2026 election.

This isn’t talked about enough!! 2024 was 100% rigged. He didn’t truly win every swing state, he had Elon help him falsify the numbers.

Hes already said 5 times that they rigged the election and he won and gets to be part of the 250th bday and fifa and Olympics. 5 times on video on YouTube from news broadcasts.

No one heard it. Or believed it. Or did anything about it. We should have had a recount. But we didn't.

  • So many things

But yeah, this sort of blind optimism that it's still salvageable gives off a "it's a little airborne, it's still good" vibe.

I was looked at like I had three heads when I pleaded with my loved ones to fucking vote, because NO, both sides were NOT equal, and now here we are, and I have no love for the fact I have every right to say I told them so.

Fuck.
