60. If he ups and dies in office

Mon Apr 28, 2025, 08:50 AM

Apr 28

he gets away with it and nothing changes. So I don't want him to die right now.

Whether he will be removed is the question. I give it no more than 50-50 odds but will continue to hope for that to happen. Even if he is gone, the damage is done and the oligarchs will double down. Whatever happens to Shitler the fight continues, until we ensure that this democracy cannot be so easily hijacked.

"Corruption on this scale cannot pass unchallenged indefinitely." Yes, it can. His henchmen and followers support avarice. No morals, no scruples, no conscience. They have extreme wealth and power. The forces against everything-- everything we care about --are very strong. After what we've seen recently, I don't underestimate what they would do, with or without the deranged orange pustule and his feces flinging shitshow.

Project 2025 has a lot of supporters. De-throning the mad king is not going to get to the sick heart of this. He's just doing their bidding, and Putin's.
