In the end, the only, and I mean ONLY, way the American people will ever act on self preservation or protest as a whole, is if the pain and suffering actually makes it to them and theirs.

You can't just warn them this oven is hot, you need to throw them into said oven and turn it up to full blast. Only then will they kick and scream and fight to save themselves.

Nothing less will do, nothing else will work.

Midder Bill calls me a terrorist for this, but my hope for the :Asshat: administration is for things to get so bad, so quickly, for so many of his voters that the error of electing him, and the need to remove him is undeniable.

As a young sales pup I was taught that discomfort and pain are the only drivers of change. That idea is true enough to be useful

@BrentSullivan Would make little difference. It's not a snake, it's a hydra. Cut the head off, another replaces it.

:Asshat: is the means to an end, the power is with the party and the GOP is also a means to an end for those behind them, and we know who they are.

:Asshat: is and has always been the weakest lowest level of threat since the start. An overinflated ego driven loser that's failed upwards all his life with no morals to speak of. He's the blank canvas for oligarchs to paint on.

@SentinelOfTruth
I shouldn't have focused on him.
I'm talking about things getting so bad they're ready to change direction, not just leaders

@BrentSullivan For that, we as a people will not, for any circumstance whatsoever pre emptive protect, defend, or change course on ANYTHING until the water is over our head and our lung are half filled with sea water.

We are that stubborn and that prideful and that stupid to act before; and it's going to be no different now.

You wanna take bets on when that's going to take place? I put it 10 months after he takes office before the tide shifts and they're gagging for air.

@SentinelOfTruth
Yes, it was ever thus
"Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed."
If it leads to a refutation of the maga movement, 10 month of pain sounds like a deal

@BrentSullivan @SentinelOfTruth I have a solution, but the men in black suits and sun glasses would be at my door if I spoke the words out loud or put them in a post.

@GeezerWench @SentinelOfTruth
We can't quote the Declaration of Independence anymore?
"... when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government..."
