No way forward for America

Having watched the smoke clear and the dust settle a little, I asked myself the question, "What happens next for America?" And there are no acceptable options. None.. America was on life support with printed currency. Chinese manufacturing and Arab oil, while the world admired the Emperors new clothes.. But thats gone now, with the government of "Evil McNasty" about to take over and bury the rotting body..America is about to become a street hooker for the few rich people left and its not going to be pretty.. And there is no escape. Even the fanciful idea of rounding up and shooting the facists before they take over is a complete betrayal of American values..America sold its place in the future of the world and it is the fault of American voters...

Historically the average run for a country that is a democracy is about 200 years.. America is at about the 250 year mark now. Then that society begins to fall apart. There is always the low end of society that are losers by life choices usually..... and the high end that takes advantage of them. At some point the poorly educated...low financial worth.....low experience doing much of anything rebels and thinks they are going to change things to make it better.

The top end topples and the lowest educated in the country takes over in a revolt and proves they are clueless at what to do next. Then all they used to have erodes away even more as that country falls into disarray because once "taking over".........no one has a clue what to do next. So they elect a leader that relates to them on their intelligence level......just like the movie "Idiocracy." That low intellect leader takes them further down..........then another power who does know what to do......takes them over and they end up back where they used to be...... at the best scenario and far worse off is usually the case. This has been the case with every advanced society in history.

Watching a country die is not a slow process. Rome fell in a day. Nazism sprang up in a year. We're looking at 4 year terms ahead of us.......plenty of time for someone already ranked as the worst president in 245+ years.........at the helm again to do EXACTLY what he said he would do....tear America apart to get even for being prosecuted. This time with not only the same incompetennce and corruption......but now with immunity and a chip on his shoulder for America to boot. This time he will do to us whatever wants and who is to stop him? Trump is a man willing to burn us all to the ground to get even in his mentally ill mind that thinks he is Ceasar and if we don't agree its best if we all suffer.

On one side of the show are the ones that see it happening already but deny it because if they don't they have to admit they were fools.. On the other are the aware that clearly sees where we are headed. The ones that refuse to see among us want destruction to happen............and they smugly think this is what "the enemy" deserves but they somehow think they will be exempted. An actor pretending to be a general that says" my plan is to kill everyone we don't like in the world just to show them how bad we are" but he surely won't drag their own kids into war. ONLY Dem's kids will die in those wars. If "socialism" ends...GREAT....that will show those "lefties".......not realizing that Red States are the ones that depend on it most just to eat, and live.

They won in their minds....but still hate. They are about to pay 25% to 40% more ion every item they buy...........they heard trump say he would do that and voted for him to do that..............but somehow mindlessly think that is going to really fuck over the enemy....but they will never pay that at all. Same with the loss of medical coverage...Social Security...it will hurt the real enemy.....their own neighbors..............but not them. Cause Donnie would not do that to them.

Reality check. The ones that think this is great..........are the ones that can least afford the kind of change they voted for. Its always the kids of the poorest of the poor that go to war.. If you cried about how bad 2.2% inflations is................imagine paying 25% to 60% more for EVERYTHING. Gas will not be $1.49 a gallon again. There will not be mass deportations. You have been duped on your "change".........and financially you will be far worse off. You simply elected a man who has one goal.....to screw over America. ALL OF IT.....except for those in tax brackets you will never be in if you lived and worked for another 100 years.

The "them" you resent..........are .those better off than you financially.............and ALL of "them" will make it thru this. Those with money always make it. But the grass roots ones...the poor ones who want change..............don't have that reserve to get by. You are about to get exactly what you want. Enjoy your choice...and hope to God America survives. If you think living in the greatest country on earth is just horrible because for 4 years you had a Dem president.........oh lordy lordy..............imagine a dictatorship where if you march with Nazi flags and hold rallies and show off your gun to protest.......YOU are the one that a dictatorship government will shoot first as a threat.
