A new Trump presidency will plunge the world into something between WW3 and nuclear annihilation.
Europe will have to dust off its own nukes as a serious deterrent to moscow and majorly increase its security spending and preparations, and Ukraine will have to develop its own (which it is perfectly capable of doing), with unpredictable results. If russia tries its luck outside Ukraine, there will be western troops clashing with russians directly.
China will smell weakness and go full throttle on its regional domination plans, and the US will do squat.
Expect a few assassination attempts/successes and unexplained deaths along the way, on almost every continent.
Well fuck, it looks like trump will win. We are in for a rough decade or two, and our children will quite possibly be called up to fight in a few years. Let’s hope putin is defenstrated before it gets that far, of course.
The only nukes actually owned by a European country are French, which just disregarded the winners of the election and are ruled by a center right/fascist coalition. We’re fucked.
EU country, you mean. There is the UK too.
UK intentionally omitted from consideration.
Trump hasn’t even won yet, and I think we’re all depressed here.
I’ve been depressed since Bush Jr. son, get on my level.
It’s the Ancient Régime, back from never been gone.
Are you ready for Trump 2028 yet? How about Trump 2032?
Trump 2024 support showed up in my area shortly after Biden won. And he’s just self centered enough to run until he absolutely cannot anymore
“Cannot run” will probably be 2028 with the way he’s degrading fast right now
I will be frankly shocked if his spawn don’t try to create a political dynasty. I don’t want them to, to be clear, but they are a clan of grifters, and this is the most successful scam he and they have ever been involved in.
There’s zero chance they don’t try, but I do t think they will be as successful
If Trump wins, there is plenty of evidence he’ll tamper with government agencies slowly so who knows what will happen. He’d likely try to extend the term to 5 years, or start a civil war and then claim it’s war time
Why extend the term to five years when he can have his cronies reverse the term limit amendment and then win every year like Putin does with 99% support?
Self-centered and desperate for cash. His supporters think he’s a successful businessman, and it’s true because his business is taking supporters’ money. Win or lose, he can never stop campaigning.
I mean…
The MAGA movement was very proud to be a psycho and sociopathic death cult during covid.
Why wouldn’t we expect them to gleefully cheer on and support even more needless pain and destruction and death?
Their primary motivator is wanting to feel justified in complaining about and hating things they don’t comprehend.
That’s already been proven, time and time again, to be more important to them than their standard of living, their aspirations, their loved ones, and their own lives.
They will make up any story, deny any facts, never take any accountability for anything.
Fucking oh well, time for CCR.
That’s a weird way of spelling fascism.
Well, we’re already in a recession, so my guess is depression.
We’re not in a recession. The economy’s actually doing pretty well right now.
Not for poor people
For who…cause it’s most certainly not the average human
That’s the downside of the definition of a recession, 2 consecutive quarters of declining GDP when adjusted for inflation. The problem is that it doesn’t actually account for how that production is distributed. So while.yes we aren’t exonomically in a recession, people are still feeling the squeeze because that GDP growth isn’t fairly distributed.
We are?
No. The recession that everyone expected never happened because the current administration did so well.

Well that’s just going to get all the doomers, peppers and rich people to vote for him
Peppers
I know you mean preppers (to the point where where my autocorrect did the same thing), but there’s some comedy to be had in imagining Jalapeños voting
I guess in the Mad Max future peppers might be the only seasoning
So a repression?
I’m already pretty depressed
“Recession” and “Depression” you say?
So “Repression?”
Yeah, that’s exactly how Nazis function at all. Gotta repress logic, repress morals, repress dissident thought.
That’s a generous range. More like “bled dry and left for dead”
You guys wanted affordable housing, right?
But the signs say only I can stop “Kamunism!” /s

He’ll lead to whatever Nazi Germany was. What is a fascist state called, like a kleptocracy as in Russia
