Re: Do you think that Trump & Co. will ever have to face real criminal penalties for what they've do

I think it's very much possible, yes. Not a certainty, but possible. The more he hurts his base, the higher the chance that they'll wake up and start to turn against him and his Republican party. And since a lot of his policies hurt his followers, it's going to be a matter of when this happens, not if. If it happens before he and his minions dismantle the government, then I think they'll eventually face criminal charges (though Donnie might die first. He is old and unwell, lbr).

I think this is one of those things where leftists and liberal activists will have to hold their nose and reach out to the disaffected Trump voters. It hasn't even been a year into his first term and I'm noticing even in my red state that the overall "yay Trump, he's gonna fix the economy" fanfare has died as more people are getting laid off, having their veteran's benefits taken away, and the low income seniors who voted for him are getting higer taxes.

I have tons of respect for the Republicans who turned against Trump and other disaffected conservatives and right-leaning Libertarians who dislike his authoritarism, but need to bring more working people with little power together.

I truly, genuinely do not understand how anyone could possibly believe that Trump would "fix" the economy. The man went broke running casinos, for God's sake. That's virtually impossible to do.

*shrug* That's their logic. They believe that Trump is a businessman and were mad about the inflation after Covid, so they figured Biden caused the cost of living to be higher and that Trump would fix it. Most voters had to look up what a tariff was after. Now I pay more for my gas and groceries after Jan 20th.

See, while *I* think it's indisputable that his policies have hurt his followers, I'm not sure they're going to make a difference because:

1) even if they understand what's been done to them and that Trump is responsible, they'll be too proud and stubborn to admit it

2) even if they went so far as to want to hold Trump responsible, I don't think they know how to go about doing this. Complaining on social media is one thing, but actually systemically voting their support to another party or candidate is another.

If there's one silver lining, there have been recent victories by Democrats in areas that voted (and sometimes overwhelmingly) Trump. Have people actually learned their lesson? I dunno, but for the time being, I'll take "holy shit fascist regime equals bad, who knew" until we can get to a better place.

Yeah, so many of his voters have a brand loyalty other GOP politicians haven't in a long time. I've known Bush voters who were willing to admit that starting two wars, the Patriot Act, and No Child Left Behind were stupid moves, but then there are Trump voters who say that they don't regret it and Harris would still be worse even after having their spouse deported and losing their job. My father has threatened my family if we voted for anyone else and was dead set that Trump would save his career, but now he makes less money now and blames it on the illegal immigrants despite working in a field they can't even access.

funny how the illegal immigrants are simultaneously "lazy freeloaders" and also "taking all our jobs". which is it? because it can't be both.

here's hoping one day your dad will leave the maga cult.

"here's hoping one day your dad will leave the maga cult."

[AYRT] Unfortunately, I doubt it at this point. He was always racist even when I was a child, and a textbook example of those conservatives who thought Obama was a Muslim antichrist. Back when I did art commission I had to decline how much he wanted me to do paintings of Obama getting beheaded and whatnot because I had a strict "no politics / current events" policy. Trump is the perfect candidate for him. I just hope he doesn't hurt anymore people, since he's prone to picking fights with people and gets in trouble at work for not wanting to be "woke" (translation: keeping his opinion to himself while on the clock).
