    Perfect move for a country full of antivaxx idiots, with an antivaxxer becoming responsible for the health of the population, all while brewing the next pandemic on their own soil.

        Just call it “The Trump Pandemic”. And I bet he will be happy about it, because it will make him really famous.

      I also believe there is a waiting period as well. Because I think he tried the same thing last time he was in office, but because it doesn’t take effect immediately it didn’t actually happen.

      And according this NPR piece in 2020 it looks like the waiting period is a year, so Trump was out of office before it would have taken effect.

        His “Project Lightspeed” bullshit used WHO resources as well 🤣

        He’s literally just trying to pull the same shit he tries with everyone on the planet. “I didn’t like the result , so I’m not paying you”. That’s all his simple mind can process. He doesn’t understand what it means to not participate in a global health organization whose sole purpose is stop pandemic-like situations.

      This fatalism is so fucking pathetic.

      Did the left start winning and forget that we have always had to struggle and fight for every scrap of humanity the oligarchy and the political class try to hoard?

      What the fuck?

      Stop crying.

        My dude, we can hold both the idea of “we’re so fucked” and “we’re going to fight like hell” in our brain. Fuck off with your patronizing bullshit.

          I’m sorry, my dude. I am just so tired of seeing this all - the - fucking - time.

          I am not trying to be patronizing. My bad. I want us all motivated to do good shit, rather than just feel like we are fucked. 🤷‍♂️

          We can win.

              It’s a great time to be organizing to build the future, solidarity gets stronger in shitty times. More people than ever have realized that the democrats are, and always have been center right, that is what liberal means everywhere else in the world, they are not the key, they are not us and now is our time!

            Oh, I’m motivated all right, but good isn’t a description I’d give any of it. Next year is gonna be messy.

            See you at the police blockades. Bring gloves for the teargas canisters.

        Bruh, a literal fascist who wants to be a dictator day one and wants lifetime control over the country was just elected by more people than the alternative.

          Our two party first past the post voting system and its long and fraught history lead to some minority percentage of the US population getting their dude into power. Over a guy in his 80s apparently blind to genocide who passed the torch to <checks notes> a former prosecutor with a “tough on crime” persona who spent a lot of time hobnobbing with celebs and saying everything was going fine, including the genocide. That is true.

            I think you and your ilk are going to come to the conclusion soon that the gamble y’all played this past election is going to blow up in your faces.

            we won’t be your pawns to sacrifice.

                I don’t know but judging by your disdain for Harris I would guess you didn’t vote at all. that’s at least what 20 million Americans did in November.

            Oh yeah, the Genocide. I forgot about Trump’s incredibly pro Palestine stance on things.

            Also, news flash, who fucking cares. It sucks people are dying, but that entire area has basically been at war endlessly since the dawn of time because every fucking religeon wants to be the only one in control of the “Holy Land.”

            They pretend its something else, but at the end of the day, its just more endless killing in the name of some Sky Daddy bull shit.

            Hobnobbing with celebs, pretending to be tougher than they are, and lying about their own success. Three things Donald Trump has never done.

        I want to not be fatalist and doomer. And if this were 2016, I would agree. But we had 8 years of everything Trump and his crew of assholes want on full display for 8+ years, and people STILL picked him.

        This is what people want.

        And I ran out of fucks back in like 2020.

        At this point, I just want to be sure to point and laugh at every Trumper who gets serious ill or loses their Social Sexurity or gets deported etc etc over these policies they chose.

        I want to laugh and go “hah hah” in Nelson style, every time.
