    This isn’t like other elections in the past. But at the same time there is no clear full proof solution for another person to take the wheels. They should do whatever it takes to make sure Trump and Trumpism is defeated long term.

      Trump is only a symptom of a dysfunctional system. Whether it goes by the name of trump or it goes by the name of something completely different, there will always be a boogeyman to scare voters for them to remain in power. Democrats will provide a boogeyman for their supporters and Republicans will provide a boogeyman for their supporters. All in an effort for the duopoly to stay in power, and keep any outside threads at bay

        This is another “both sides are bad” argument; while partially true, the Republicans clearly are much worse.

        Aaaaaand you get downvoted.

        People don’t actually realize why there’s so much support for Trump. A lot of the public is tired of the gasligjting, bullshit, and lies that establishment politics has brought them for the last ~70 years.
