wear safety goggles when you go party, cops will be shooting people's eyes out with "rubber bullets" like they do every time we end up in the streets

In many countries, cops would be celebrating too.

It's only the US that needs to tackle the underlying issue that got him elected in the first place.

Trump isn't the issue. He's a symptom of the issue.

Trump is a system, but if anyone thinks the JD “the couch” Vance has the same pull with the base, they’re wrong.

It‘s not about that particular populist cult or Trump, they are the symptom. This rot of the US society has been long in the making, across many administrations. It won‘t get any better regardless of who gets to the levers of power. Infact the whole partisan debate misses the issue entirely, it‘s just theater for the masses to keep them distracted to never quite figure out what‘s really wrong.

When he lost in 2020 all the cops did was stand around and cry, so here's hoping they do the same thing.

By "they" i meant the cops. Lots of footage of them in full riot gear standing around crying their eyes out during all of the parties going on after trump lost in 2020.
