MAGAThread XX: A Journal of the Plague Year

[Diahon]

The MAGA Times draw to a close and with them, this thread. How about noon on Wednesday, more or less?

how about daybreak?

new day, no more trumpery, and at long last, i can concentrate on writing and worldbuilding and conlanging and being fully healthy and i'm really looking forward to it

[Jerzylvania]

'Twas a meme post.

*summons Guards* Take him away.

Farn, did you check for imposter guards?

[Rusozak]

Not sorry to see you go, MAGA. May you go down in history as one of the most ironic names, next to "The Unsinkable Ship" and the "Thousand Year Reich".

POV: You are on NSG looking at the good ending.

What good ending?

We're just gonna have another malicious Rep pop up in 4-8 years and erase any and all work the Dems have done to fix the bs Trump caused. As is not the current trend, The Reps ruin everything, The Dems come in a clean The Reps shit, The Reps come back again and fuck up everything, rinse and repeat ad nauseum.

Actually the moddems hand the country over to the reps in the name of unity, while everyone Bernie and leftward says "what the hell bro?"

The world won't be a better place just because Trump is not president. I know we all have gotten used to hating him but the world was chaotic before Trump and will get more chaotic as the years go on.

Please. Pretty please. Trump sheds a tear every time something about him is closed.

Oh it will improve. You won’t have Trump spewing his poison so freely. Now he will be busy trying to replace Alex Jones.

i suppose i'm counting my chickens, but one less authoritarian to think about -- one in charge of the global hegemon -- is always far better

Out with the rabid billionaire and his cult, in with the warmongering politician who helped create the conditions that lead to his rise.

The faces always different, the rhetoric the same
But we swallow it all, and we see nothing change

even a reversion to the mean is a respite at this point, but hopefully things change for the far better

Trump is ousted, the Democrats gained the trifecta, demographics leaning more liberal over time, GOP infighting.

And thus ended the American Dark Age.

A new era begins.

The Republicans will take control of the House in 2022 and then the presidency in 2024.

Maybe 2022, but not sure about 2024.

learning not to fuck it up with your time in power -- and it could very well last for a generation, especially if trump is barred from holding office again -- is key

the key to me finally relaxing for a bit, that is

Plus the demographics of America are leaning significantly more liberal. GOP voter suppression can't work forever.

Tomorrow, Joe Biden takes over from Donald Trump as commander in chief, and with it will end the MAGAThread series. My verdict on the Trump presidency? Absolutely divisive, before it all came crashing down in the aftermath of the Capitol Hill storming.

No. He will continue to be an actor on the streets and direct his trumpian army and MAGA cohorts in many states around the US and possibly beyond. No longer bound by the limits of office he can go all out and on the rampage.

Not really. He’s been (unjustly) banned from social media basically, so he doesn’t exactly have an avenue to make any speeches or statements or whatever.

He has several avenues to make speeches or whatever. If he holds rallies, it will get coverage. If he wants to do a conventional media tour with interviews, he will get them. If he wants to run through surrogates, he can.

I mean he's a rich ass dude. Not hard for him to set up a website or even his own social media company.

He couldn't help himself and kept fanning the flames during a riot. They had to ban him.

You know, it didn't go so well last time people started saying "end of history" sort of things.

[Western Theram]

can't wait to reread all these posts one day and remember how awful this presidency has been

Pretty sure even post presidency Trump could call most news stations and get an interview, on the record statement, or whatever else he wants. It's not like news crews won't show up because he is banned on twitter, Trump says something controversial will still drive TV viewership and online clicks to the article.

Just to all those who cheer the impending end of this thread (which is really redundant since we already have an US thread) and the banning of Trump from Twitter and the end of his desastrous Presidency etc. This is my last post in this thread:

The historical situation, conditions and environment that brought Trump into existence as political figure and allowed for his rise to power in the USA are all the more present than they were when he came to power in 2016.

You can be cheer all you want that Jack Dorsey has freed you from the compulsive obsessive urge to check out his Twitter feed and be outraged over his blatant nonsense and bullshit and that hes out of sight for the time being.

Its a folly. He's not cause but symptom of bigger problems and crisis. As long as those causes are not addressed and keep being ignored the symptoms will persist. Trump was good in casting a spotlight upon all those things. Things a lot of people prefer to not look at, things you'd pretend that dont exist. Trump brought them to the light. And thats what you hated him for.

But he was, in a way, (initially at least) necessary to reveal all those things and expose the true state of things and rub it into your face.

This exactly.
