Summary

Donald Trump’s re-election would have sweeping domestic and international consequences, affecting areas like abortion, immigration, gun control, LGBTQ+ rights, the environment, and foreign policy.

Domestically, Trump is expected to weaken gun-safety laws, restrict abortion access, roll back LGBTQ+ rights, and target freedom of the press. His administration could also push for aggressive deportation policies and clamp down on protest movements.

Internationally, Trump’s “America First” approach threatens NATO unity and may embolden allies like Israel to take unilateral actions in the Middle East.

Environmental protections and climate change efforts would likely suffer severe setbacks under his leadership.

    Nope. They instituted serious anti-immigrant laws here in Florida that severely hurt many businesses. For example, enormous construction projects just stopped. Just Google, “Florida immigrant law halts construction” and you’ll get all sort of fantastic examples.

    So yes: Right wingers did shoot themselves in the foot in order to hurt immigrants (which is what their base truly wants in their heart of hearts). The Republican legislature knew it would be horrible for the economy. They knew it was going to hurt innocent people and loads of small businesses.

    They didn’t care. That’s what the Republican party is all about, after all: Not caring. They will actively seek to hurt their perceived enemies no matter what! Consequences be damned!
